ANG KAHALAGAHAN NG PAGIGING ANAK NIYA

062203
"Eh , ANO KUNG KRISTIYANO NA AKO?"

ITINALAGA NA AKO SA DIYOS
Consecrated To God

INTRODUCTION

1. Malaki ang kahalagahan ng pagiging Kristiyano.

a. Ang Kristiyano reborn naka –experience na ng bagong buhay
b. Ang nanagmay-ari na sa Kanya ay ang Diyos. At bilang pagmammay-ari ng Diyos alam niya na ssiya aay dayo lang sa lupa. Ganyan tayo

2. Pangalawang kahalagahan ay tungkol sa ating pagkatinalaga o’ pagkabinukod sa Panginoon. You and I have been separated by Christ to be consecrated and made holy until He comes.

Sa OT maraming mga example ng mga bagay, hayop at mga tao na itinalaga ng Diyos. Ang prosesso ng pagtatalaga ay nag- iinvolve ng sanctification

Ang salitang pagtalaga, "sanctify" and "sanctification" ay translated mula sa orihinal
(hagiazo - hag-ee-ad'-zo} na ang meaning ay “to make holy”,” to set apart for a special purpose”. May mga related terms ito na holiness, consecration, saint pagganap banal, pagtatalaga, o’ santo.

Nais kong makita natin ngayon na ang pagiging banal ngayon ay siyang ating katayuan ngayon at siya rin pang-araw araw nating pamumuhay.Our being consecrated to God pertains to both our standing before God and our conduct before God

Dalawang bagay ang ating titingnan ngayon.

Una na ikaw at ako na nandiyan kay Kristo ay GANAP na banal at nakatalaga na para sa Kanya.

Pangalawa , tayo bilang mga anak ng Panginoon GINAGAWANG banal.

The first talks about the status of our being sanctified, the second talks about process of our being sanctified.





I. THE STATUS OF OUR SANCTIFICATION

A. IKAW AT AKO AY GANAP NA BANAL KAY KRISTO.
ALL CHRISTIANS ARE SANCTIFIED...

May 3 tanong na dapat sagutin natin dito?

1. Sino ang ginanap na banal? Who were "sanctified in Christ Jesus? Ang iglesia sa Korinto ay kagaya ng isang ordinaryo na iglesia. Dinescribe ito ni Pablo na sanctified, or binanal dahil sa pakikipag-isa kay Kristo Jesus

1 Cor 1:2

2 To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all who in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:

2. Kailan ba sila ginanap na banal? When had they been "sanctified? -

1 Cor 6:11
11 And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.
…. Ngunit nilinis kayo, binanal at pinawalang sala sa Pangalan ng Panginoong Jesu Kristo.

-- Note the past tense

3. Kahit hindi sila perfect , ginanap ba sila ng Diyos na banal? Marami sa mga taga Korinto ang tinawag ni Pablo na "babes in Christ" at "carnal" –

1 Cor 3:1-3

1 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ. 2 I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; 3 for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?

1) They were filled with envy, strife and divisions
2) They were acting carnally, as mere men
3. Thus, while Christians may not be perfect, they are still called SAINTS

(A. Ikaw att ako ganap na banal ni Kristo)
B. MAHIRAP MAN ISIPIN PERO TOTOO ITO, IKAW AT AKO NA NANDIYAN KAY KRISTO AY TUNAY NA SANTO. You and I who have accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior are the real saints.

Dahil tayo ay ibinukod at itinalaga ang angkop na tawag sa atin ay santo. Because they had been "set apart" to be "God's holy people" it was appropriate to be called "saints" –

1 Cor 1:2

2 To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all who in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:

Col 1:2

2 To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ who are in Colosse: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

cf 1 Pe 2:9

9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

-- This pertains to our standing before God, we are blessed to be considered His holy people

II. THE PROCESS OF SANCTIFICATION


A. TAYO AY ONGOING BUSINESS HINDI UNFINISHED BUSINESS. WE ARE CONTINUOSLY "BEING SANCTIFIED"... Tapos na aat ginagawa pa!

1. Ang pagtatalaga at pagbubukod Niya sa atin ay di natatapos man lang.
Sanctification is an on-going process; while we are here it never ends. Christ
is continuously at work in us. We who are in Christ are "BEING sanctified"

Heb 2:11
11 For both He who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified are all of one, for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren,


2. Nagsimula ang pagtatalaga Niya sa atin noong pagtanggap natin sa kanya. Nais din Niya na lumago at maging kumpleto itong gawain Niya sa atin. Sanctification begins at conversion, and continues as we grow in the faith

Paul prayed for the Thessalonians:

1 Thess 5:23
23 Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
NKJV

3 Kailangan tayong mamuhay na banal ayon sa pgatatalaga o’ pagbubukod Niya
sa atin Thus Christians are to pursue sanctification (holiness)

As the Hebrews were admonished

Heb 12:14

14 Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:

B. WE ARE CONTINUOSLY BEING SANCTIFIED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT AND BY HIS WORD.

1. Tayo ay itinalaga ng Banal Na Espiritu upang sumunod sa Kanya.
We are"sanctified by the Holy Spirit inorder to follow Him.

Rom 15:16

16 that I might be a minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering of the Gentiles might be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

1 Pe 1:2 (NASV)
1 Peter 1:1-2
2 elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, for obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.

2. Ang gabay sa pagtatalaga Niya sa atin ay ang salita Niya. Sanctification is
also the work of God’s Word.

Note that sanctification is also said to be tied in with the
Word of God:

Jn 17:17a. "Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth." -

Ep 5:26b. "that He might sanctify...by the word" -

Since the Word of God is said to be "the sword of the Spirit"
(Ep 6:17), the Word is evidently the instrument used by the
Spirit to help bring about our sanctification



CONCLUSION

1. Naintindihan ba natin na tayo ay reborn, pagmamay-ari ng Diyos at namumuhay ng may pananaaaampalataya? Kung ganoon hindi mahirap sa atin na isipin na tayo ay itinalaga o” ibinukod para sa Panginoon.

2. Naisip ba natin na itong pagka talaga natin tungo sa kanya ay isang previlege na maging kagaya Niya.
a. tinawag tayo na banal dahil Siya ay banal.
b. At, ibinukod kagaya Niya?

Kung ganoon pakinggan natin si Pablo na nagsabi:


"Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse
ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting
holiness in the fear of God." (2 Co 7:1)

Are we perfecting holiness in the fear of God?
