Shalom, I wish you a blessed and rich commitment day. The profess your Redeemer and Savior, is to accompany you. Have no fear, I have to confess at all locations sincerity thy Redeemer. Confess joyfully and wholeheartedly!

1 John 4, 14 – 15

And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son as Savior of the world.

Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, in which God and he in God.

Confess!

This knowledge makes man a Christian. But it is here – as in Jo 4,42 – to “Jesus”; not to a heavenly spirit beings, but to the “come in the flesh” son of God.

Therefore John continues: “Whoever confesses some that Jesus is the Son of God, in him God and he in God.” We need to consider in what strict parallels the apostle represents the faith and love here. “If we love one another, God remains in us,” it said in 1 John 4, 12. Now it is said that God “remains” in anyone who “confesses that Jesus is the Son of God.” John Entangled in a contradiction? If now suddenly but the “dogma” that “sound doctrine” in place of “love”?

No, for John heard both inseparable. The love is born indeed in us only from the love of God for us. And the fire of love meets us only when we have recognized in Jesus the Son of God, who is sent by God as a means of atonement for our sins in the world. And vice versa proves a commitment to Jesus that our heart is not inflamed to love as spurious and as an empty mind thing.

If John used herein “confess” the word, he means the public confession of Jesus that in the contemporary world into mannigfaches suffering. So it was then not so easy to store a Oberflächliges lip service. Who but he suffered because of his commitment, at its may consolation: “in him God and he in God.”

You see how important that profess your faith is, you’re not appointed Underground Christ, no thou shalt confess thy faith. However, if the love of God is in you, then you will confess and every want to tell him. So as if you’re in love with a man and you’re hooked, each will you tell your new love. Equally you will want to tell people of your God because his love lives in you.

Pray for the fire of love in your heart, pray that you overcome yourself and the world tell like, who is Jesus Christ.

God’s protection, blessings and peace
