ஆதவன் 🔥 912🌻 ஜூலை 28, 2023 வெள்ளிக்கிழமை
"இயேசுவை அறிவேன், பவுலையும் அறிவேன், நீங்கள் யார் என்று சொல்லி, பொல்லாத ஆவியையுடைய மனுஷன் அவர்கள்மேல் பாய்ந்து, பலாத்காரம்பண்ணி, அவர்களை மேற்கொள்ள, அவர்கள் நிருவாணிகளும் காயப்பட்டவர்களுமாகி அந்த வீட்டை விட்டு ஓடிப்போனார்கள்." ( அப்போஸ்தலருடைய நடபடிகள் 19 : 15, 16 )
AATHAVAN 🔥 912🌻 Friday, July 28, 2023
"And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded". ( Acts 19 : 15, 16 )
Today's verse is a warning to people who only know Jesus Christ in name and call themselves Christians. People who claim to be traditional Christians and live without a spiritual life or desire to know Christ are more likely to get caught in these traps as today's verse says.
A good Christian life is not only knowing the history of Christ and his miracles; it is not about knowing the histories of the saints. if we boast about dead missionaries and say, "He is the one who built our church", we are deceiving ourselves.
If we are so, our life would become pitiable like the exorcists who saw the miraculous deeds performed by the apostle Paul, and acted like Paul, thinking that they too can cast out demons in the name of Jesus Christ preached by Paul.
They only knew the name of Jesus Christ preached by Paul, but did not know the relationship between Paul and Christ, the holy life of the Paul or his prayer life. So, they thought that by saying the name of Christ the demons would flee.
Satan knows just as God knows about our lives. So, the demon possessed man asked, " Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?" Moreover, it is said that he leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
Beloved, if we know the name of Christ and live claiming to be Christians, this can happen to us too. Not only ghosts, but diseases, sufferings, problems, all these things will overcome us. If we do not live a righteous life but only pray, Satan will question us like he asked the exorcists "Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?"
Only when we know Christ in our lives, accept Him as Savior and live a holy life according to Him, Satan cannot question us. If we accept Christ for namesake, we will be pitiable.
