\u201cPorque Cristo es nuestra paz: de los dos pueblos ha hecho uno solo, derribando mediante su sacrificio el muro de enemistad que nos separaba\u2026\u201d Efesios 2:14<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

La reconciliaci\u00f3n con Dios comienza de forma individual para cada uno de nosotros, pero la agenda de Dios va mucho m\u00e1s all\u00e1. \u00c9l est\u00e1 creando una nueva humanidad, la cual est\u00e1 unida en Jesucristo y es la raz\u00f3n por la que la iglesia nos lleva a la unidad en Cristo convirti\u00e9ndonos en una comunidad de personas que impactan y cambian su mundo alrededor. Stuart Briscoe dijo: \u00abCuando Dios cre\u00f3 a Ad\u00e1n, \u00c9l cre\u00f3 un individuo, y cuando cre\u00f3 a Eva, \u00c9l cre\u00f3 algo totalmente diferente, cre\u00f3 la sociedad\u00bb. Si la respuesta al individuo ca\u00eddo es Cristo, la respuesta a la sociedad ca\u00edda es la Iglesia.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

El gran dilema de Pablo en el establecimiento de la Iglesia primitiva era la falta de uni\u00f3n entre jud\u00edos y gentiles. El pueblo jud\u00edo ten\u00eda los pactos, los patriarcas, la ley, la adoraci\u00f3n y la gloria divina como hijos de Dios. Ten\u00edan esperanza y ten\u00edan a Dios, pero los gentiles (LOS NO JUDIOS), no ten\u00edan nada de esto. Pablo describe la condici\u00f3n de ellos como forasteros, extranjeros, separados, excluidos, sin Dios y sin esperanza.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Los jud\u00edos y gentiles eran muy diferentes, y sus diferencias se hab\u00edan convertido en divisiones irreconciliables. Si las diferencias fueran acerca de Dios ser\u00edan excusables, pero las divisiones no eran acerca de Dios y eran inexcusables. El prop\u00f3sito de la naci\u00f3n jud\u00eda era ser una bendici\u00f3n para el mundo y convertirse en bendici\u00f3n enriquecedora para todas las naciones, es decir para los gentiles. En su lugar, el pueblo se hab\u00eda convertido en una \u00e9lite arrogante, pero como hijos de Dios, siempre terminaban racionalizando y justificando su posici\u00f3n.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
En la sociedad actual existen diferencias leg\u00edtimas que se han convertido en divisiones ileg\u00edtimas. Existen prejuicios de g\u00e9nero, edad, raza, cultura, e incluso habilidades. \u00c9sto crea divisiones, y estas divisiones muchas veces se convierten en divisiones destructivas. Pablo nos dice: \u201cPues anul\u00f3 la ley con sus mandamientos y requisitos. \u00c9sto lo hizo para crear en s\u00ed mismo de los dos pueblos una nueva humanidad al hacer la paz, para reconciliar con Dios a ambos en un solo cuerpo mediante la cruz, por la que dio muerte a la enemistad.\u201d (Efesios 2:15-16). Puesto que esta reconciliaci\u00f3n es \u00fanicamente posible en Cristo, en la ra\u00edz de la divisi\u00f3n y la fragmentaci\u00f3n, subyace un asunto espiritual, el cual s\u00f3lo puede comenzar a ser rectificado en la cruz de Cristo.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
El verdadero ingrediente que nos lleva a la unidad es la presencia de Dios, y primero debemos poner en orden nuestra relaci\u00f3n con \u00c9l, antes que podamos hacer lo mismo con los dem\u00e1s. Si lo vemos como un tri\u00e1ngulo y en el v\u00e9rtice superior, est\u00e1 Dios, y en los v\u00e9rtices opuestos a cada lado; tal vez un jud\u00edo en un lado y un gentil en el otro, o un esposo en un lado y una esposa en el otro, es en la medida que nos acercamos m\u00e1s a Dios, que terminamos por acercarnos m\u00e1s el uno al otro. Por eso es que Pablo trae todo de vuelta a la cruz de Cristo. Cuando se forman divisiones y emergen barreras, es acerca de propia justicia, pero al venir a la cruz de Cristo, todo es acerca de humildad y unidad en \u00c9l.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
ORACI\u00d3N: Se\u00f1or, te pido para que las iglesias en todas partes encuentren unidad en Ti y derriben las divisiones que inhiben Tu obra en este mundo. Gracias, Se\u00f1or.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

PARA REFLEXIONAR: \u00bfHay divisiones en mi iglesia que necesitan ser llevadas a la cruz de Cristo?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Genesis 20-22 | Matthew 6:19-34<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00abBecause Christ is our peace: two peoples has made one single, knocking down the wall of enmity that separated us… through his sacrifice\u00bb Ephesians 2:14<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Reconciliation with God starts individually for each one of us, but the agenda of God goes far beyond. He is creating a new humanity, which is United in Jesus Christ, and is the reason why church leads us to unity in Christ becoming a community of people that impact and change your world around. Stuart Briscoe said: \u00abWhen God created Adam, he created an individual, and when he created Eve, he created something completely different, it created the company\u00bb. If the answer to the fallen individual is Christ, the response to fallen society is the Church.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The great dilemma of Pablo in the establishment of the early church was the failure of marriage between Jews and gentiles. The Jewish people had the Covenants, the Patriarchs, the law, worship and divine glory as God’s children. They had hope and they had God, but the gentiles had none of this. Paul describes the condition of them as outsiders, foreign, separated, excluded, without God and without hope.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Jews and gentiles were very different, and their differences become irreconcilable divisions. If the differences were about God they would be excusable, but the divisions were not about God and were inexcusable. The purpose of the Jewish nation was to be a blessing to the world and become a rewarding blessing to all the Nations, i.e. for the gentiles. Instead, the village had become an arrogant elite, but as children of God, they always ended up rationalizing and justifying their position.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
In today’s society there are legitimate differences that have become illegitimate divisions. There are prejudices of gender, age, race, culture, and even skills. This creates divisions, and these divisions often become destructive divisions. Paul tells us: \u00abhe annulled the law with its commandments and requirements. This was done to create itself from two peoples a new humanity to make peace, to reconcile with God in one body through the cross, by which gave death the enmity.\u00bb (Ephesians 2:15-16). Since this reconciliation is only possible in Christ, at the root of division and fragmentation, is a spiritual issue, which can only begin to be rectified in the cross of Christ.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The real ingredient that leads to the unit is the presence of God, and first should put in order our relationship with him, before that we can do the same with others. If we see it as a triangle and the top vertex, is God, and in the corners opposite to each side; Perhaps a Jew on one side and one Gentile in the other, or a husband on one side and one wife on the other, is as us closer to God, that we end up closer us to the other. Why is Paul brings everything back to the cross of Christ. When divisions are formed and surface barriers, it is about justice, but to come to the cross of Christ, everything is about humility and unity in it.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Prayer: Lord, I ask that the churches everywhere are unit in Ti and tear down the divisions that inhibit your work in this world. Thank you, Mr.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

TO think: There are divisions in my church that need to be taken to the cross of Christ?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
