\nJerem\u00edas 50 | Hebreos 8
\n\u201cEn este mundo afrontar\u00e1n aflicciones, pero \u00a1an\u00edmense! Yo he vencido al mundo.\u201d \u2013 JUAN 16:33<\/p>\n
El Siglo XX fue uno de los m\u00e1s tr\u00e1gicos en la historia de la humanidad, en el cual, el Nazismo de Hitler y el Comunismo en Rusia, bajo Stalin y en China bajo Mao Tse-tung, evidenciaron toda su maldad y causaron la perdida de muchas vidas. En su mayor parte, dichas corrientes se han debilitado, pero en el Siglo XXI ha aparecido una nueva obsesi\u00f3n relacionada con el terrorismo internacional, cuya principal caracter\u00edstica es la ausencia de l\u00edmites o fronteras, lo que ha hecho que millones de personas hoy en d\u00eda vivan bajo incesante temor y llenos de miedo.<\/p>\n
La persecuci\u00f3n a los d\u00e9biles y oprimidos por motivos de raza, religi\u00f3n o tendencias pol\u00edticas, ha dejado una huella indeleble en la historia de la humanidad. Sin embargo, existe una ley moral natural que establece que aunque el mal parezca dominar nuestro mundo, esta ley natural traer\u00e1 algo mejor. Los campos de muerte de Pol Pot no sobrevivir\u00edan por siempre. La explotaci\u00f3n del colonialismo funcionar\u00eda por casi un siglo y posteriormente colapsar\u00eda. La opresi\u00f3n del comunismo sobrevivi\u00f3 60 o 70 a\u00f1os, y podemos estar seguros que Corea del Norte no continuar\u00e1 por siempre bajo el presente r\u00e9gimen de opresi\u00f3n. A su debido tiempo, la ley natural corregir\u00e1 la maldad.<\/p>\n
Pero parece que cada vez que un tipo de maldad cae, otro tipo de maldad emerge. Cuando Jes\u00fas dijo: \u201cBienaventurados los pacificadores\u201d, no tenemos que rascarnos la cabeza y preguntaros a qu\u00e9 se refer\u00eda Jes\u00fas, pero s\u00ed podemos preguntarnos \u00bfPor qu\u00e9 ocurren todas las atrocidades de la guerra? Santiago pregunta: \u201c\u00bfDe d\u00f3nde surgen las guerras y los conflictos entre ustedes? \u00bfNo es precisamente de las pasiones que luchan dentro de ustedes mismos? Desean algo y no lo consiguen. Matan y sienten envidia, y no pueden obtener lo que quieren. Ri\u00f1en y se hacen la guerra. No tienen, porque no piden\u201d (Santiago 4:1-2). \u00bfQu\u00e9 nos dice \u00e9sto acerca del estado actual de nuestro mundo? Todo comienza con el coraz\u00f3n humano, y la Escritura nos da un claro diagn\u00f3stico del coraz\u00f3n. El coraz\u00f3n humano est\u00e1 ca\u00eddo, es corrupto y necesita reparaci\u00f3n. El mundo entero tiene necesidad de un Salvador.<\/p>\n
Millones de personas han sacrificado sus vidas luchando valientemente por la igualdad y la libertad. Celebramos y rendimos homenaje al D\u00eda de la Remembranza. En el Edificio de las Naciones Unidas en Nueva York, grabado sobre una placa, est\u00e1 el pasaje de Miqueas 4:3 que dice: \u201cConvertir\u00e1n en azadones sus espadas, y en hoces sus lanzas. Ya no alzar\u00e1 su espada naci\u00f3n contra naci\u00f3n, ni se adiestrar\u00e1n m\u00e1s para la guerra.\u201d<\/p>\n
Toda reconciliaci\u00f3n con Dios, no solo la de la humanidad, sino la de toda la creaci\u00f3n, es canalizada a trav\u00e9s de la Cruz de Cristo. Es un momento crucial en la historia, donde lo que Dios cre\u00f3 ser\u00e1 restaurado a \u00c9l. Ese d\u00eda a\u00fan no ha llegado, pero podemos vivir con la clara percepci\u00f3n de la realidad que Jes\u00fas ha vencido al mundo, y si permanecemos en \u00c9l, estaremos en el lado de la victoria.
\nORACI\u00d3N: Gracias Se\u00f1or Jes\u00fas por Tu obra en la cruz. Oro por la paz en nuestro mundo y espero que llegue el d\u00eda en que la humanidad viva en perfecta comuni\u00f3n.
\nPARA REFLEXIONAR: \u00bfDe qu\u00e9 manera la situaci\u00f3n del mundo actual me est\u00e1 afectado y estoy pidiendo en mis oraciones por la paz?<\/p>\n
The Side of the Victory

\nJeremiah 50 Hebrews 8
\n\u201c In this world they will face afflictions, but Cheer up! I have defeated the world.\u201d \u2013 JOHN 16:33<\/p>\n
The XXth Century was one of the more tragedians in the history of humanity, in which, Hitler’s Nazism and the Communism in Russia, bass. For the most part, the aforementioned currents have weakened, but in the XXIth Century a new obsession related with the international terrorism has appeared, whose main characteristic is the limitlessness or frontiers, what has made millions of people today live under unceasing fear and scary full houses.<\/p>\n
The persecution to the weak and oppressed on the grounds of race, religion or political tendencies, has left an indelible footprint at the history of humanity. However, there is a natural moral law that he establishes that even if evil seems to dominate our world, this natural law will bring something along better. Pol Pot’s fatal fields would not survive forever. The exploitation of colonialism would work for almost one century and at a later time would collapse. The oppression of Communism survived 60 or 70 years, and we can be sure that North Korea will not continue forever under the present regime of oppression. In due time, the natural law will correct evilness.<\/p>\n
But it seems that every time that a kind of evilness decreases, another type of evilness es emerge. When Jesus said: \u201cMale blesseds pacifiers \u201d, we do not have to scratch our head and to ask what did Jesus refer himself, but definitely we can ask ourselves Why do all atrocities of war happen? James asks: \u201c From where do the wars and the conflicts between you happen? Isn’t it become precisely of the passions that fight inside yourselves? They desire something and they do not get it. They kill and establish envy, and they cannot obtain what they want. They quarrel and they get themselves war. They have nothing, because they do not ask for \u201d (James 4:1-2). What does he tell \u00e9sto about the present condition of our world? Everything begins with the human heart, and the writing gives us a clear diagnosis of the heart. The human heart is fallen, it is corrupted and needs repair. Everybody has need of a Savior.<\/p>\n
Millions of people have sacrificed their lives fighting bravely for equality and freedom. We celebrate and we pay reverence to the Day of the Remembrance. In the Building of The United Nations in New York, engraving on a plate, is the passage of Micah 4:3 that says: \u201cThey will turn swords into your large hoes, and in your sickles lances. No longer your sword will raise nation against nation, neither they will exercise more for war.\u201d<\/p>\n
Every reconciliation with God, not only the one of humanity, but the one of the whole the Creation, is channelled through the Cross of Christ. It is a crucial moment in history, where what God created will be restored to him. That day has not yet come, but we can live with the clear perception of the real world that Jesus has conquered to the world, and if we stay in him, we will be in the side of victory.
\nPRAYER: Thanks Lord Jesus for Tu acts in the cross. I pray for La Paz in our world and I hope that there comes the day in which humanity lives in perfect communion.
\nIN ORDER TO REFLECT: How is the situation of the present-day world impaired for me and am I asking for in my prayers for Peace?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
