Alandlikkus

Kuulasin täna ühte jutlust, mille pidas kunagi Mark Driscoll Mars Hilli koguduses.

(http://www.marshillchurch.org/media/its-all-about-jesus/its-all-about-jesus-humility)

See on esimene jutlus seeriast "It's All About Jesus" ja selle teema oli "Humility" ehk alandlikkus.

Muide, kui te kunagi mõtlete, et peate päeva jooksul väga palju bussiga sõitma ja ei tea, mida selle ajal teha, siis soovitan oma iPodi, MP3 mängijasse, telefoni või CD pleierisse mõni jutlus susata, see on imeline ajaveetmisvahend. Igatahes...

See jutlus rääkis Jeesusest. No kidding... Aga Driscoll tõi väga elavaid ja häid näiteid sellest, kui ülimalt alandlik oli Jeesus, kui ta oli siin maa peal ja kui ülimalt raske on meil teinekord alandlikud olla.

Oi jah, ma ei oska seda ümber rääkida, tüüp rääkis tund aega :D Aga esiteks.. kuulake seda jutlust.

Teiseks, annan mõned punktid edasi, mis ma sealt välja noppisin, mis olid mõned paljudest headest mõtetest.

• "There is no right understanding of yourself until you understand yourself in light of who God is." (see mõte läheb edasi ja selgineb järgmises punktis)
• "Pride, arrogance, haughtiness, boastfulness is what happens when we compare ourselves to one another. Humility, conviction, repentance is what happens when we compare ourselves to this Holy Lord."
• "One of the reasons why I know that Christianity is true and not created is no one would have ever thought of this. In fact, no other religion ever has. You will never find another religion that is based on the concept of God being a humble servant. Just the Bible teaches that. It's all true."

6 ways how to respond to Jesus and His humility

1. Jesus is a humble teacher. Be a humble learner!
2. Jesus humbly forgives. We should humble ourselves and apologize.
3. Jesus is a humble leader. We should be humble enough to follow Him.
4. Jesus is a humble servant. We should humbly depend on Him and be bold enough to "trouble Him" with our prayers.
5. Jesus humbly hears us. We should humbly pray to Him. If He's listening, we should talk.
6. Jesus is humbly willing to be with us. We should humbly enjoy His presence.

Neid ja veel väga palju häid mõtteid kuuled, kui kuulad seda jutlust, mille link on ülalpool Sulle antud! ;) Tõesti hea...
