Law aur Nurture
Essay
Discipleship person ki condition dekhne se shuru hoti hai. Jin logon ko hum lead karna chahte hain, woh mature aur responsible sheep ho sakte hain. Lekin jinko Parmeshwar actually humein entrust karte hain, woh young lambs, wounded believers, ya aise log ho sakte hain jo abhi khud firmly stand nahi kar sakte. Shepherd sirf apni pasand ki sheep choose nahi karta. Shepherd Yeshu ke entrust kiye logon ko receive karta hai aur unki condition ke hisaab se care karta hai.
John 21 mein Yeshu Peter se kehte hain: mere lambs ko feed karo, mere sheep ko tend karo, mere sheep ko feed karo.Yohanna 21:15-17Mere lambs ko feed karo. Yeh sirf repetition nahi. Yahan discernment hai. Lamb aur mature sheep ko same care nahi chahiye. Kuch logon ko pehle nourishment aur safety chahiye. Dusron ko direction, responsibility aur guidance chahiye.
Agar hum lamb par bahut jaldi strong training push kar dein, wound aur deep ho sakta hai. Jab faith abhi young ho, person ki sense of self unstable ho, aur loved hone ka experience weak ho, to first language yeh ho sakti hai: tum achcha kar rahe ho, tum theek ho, tum loved ho. Healthy tareeke se training receive karne se pehle person ko enough love receive karna padta hai.Yashayah 40:11Vah shepherd ki tarah apne flock ko charayega, lambs ko apni baahon mein uthayega.
Dusri taraf, agar hum mature sheep ko sirf feed karte rahein, growth ruk sakti hai. Mature sheep ko responsibility chahiye. Woh move karte, serve karte, aur entrust ki gayi cheez carry karte hue grow karte hain. Shepherding ka matlab sabko same baat kehna nahi. Matlab stage aur need ke hisaab se love karna aur form karna hai.1 Thessaluniki 5:14Idle ko warn karo, fainthearted ko encourage karo, weak ko help karo, sabke prati patient raho.
Yeh principle churches ko samajhne mein bhi help karta hai. Kuch churches restoration ki places ho sakti hain, kuch foundational nurture par focus kar sakti hain, aur kuch mature coworkers raise kar sakti hain. Kisi church ko jaldi judge nahi karna chahiye kyunki woh har role perfectly fulfill nahi karti. Body of Christ mein different parts different assignments carry karte hain.
Law aur gospel ko bhi isi discernment ke saath samajhna hai. Mosaic covenant aur new covenant same tareeke se operate nahi karte. Jab hum kehte hain ki Yeshu ne law fulfill kiya, iska matlab yeh nahi ki ab hum Old Testament ke har institution aur ordinance ko same form mein repeat karte hain. Iska matlab hai ki law jis purpose ki taraf point kar raha tha, woh Christ mein fulfill ho gaya.
Sabse clear example sacrifice hai. Old Testament sacrifices repeat hote the, lekin Yeshu ka cross once-for-all sacrifice hai. New covenant people animal sacrifices par wapas nahi ja sakte. Temple bhi Christ mein change hota hai. Yeshu true temple hain, aur Christ mein church aur believers ab woh jagah hain jahan Parmeshwar ki presence reveal hoti hai.
Iska matlab yeh nahi ki law ki koi value nahi. Law Parmeshwar ki holiness reveal karta hai, sin expose karta hai, aur dikhata hai ki human beings apne aap ko righteous nahi bana sakte. Law mirror ki tarah hai. Woh dikha sakta hai ki kya dirty hai. Lekin mirror person ko wash nahi kar sakta. Cleanse karne aur life dene ki power gospel, Pavitra Atma, aur Parmeshwar ke diye hue new life mein hai.
Tithing ko bhi isi structure ke andar discern karna hai.Mattee 23:23Tum tithe dete ho, par law ki weightier baatein justice, mercy aur faithfulness chhod dete ho. Old Testament mein tithe temple, Levites, aur Israel ke religious-national structure se connected tha. New covenant mein voluntary giving aur stewardship zyada central ho jaate hain. Iska matlab tithing ko outright reject karna ya teach karne wali churches ko criticize karna nahi.
Kuch logon ke liye tithing faith ki basic training ki tarah kaam kar sakti hai. Jab koi seekh raha hai ki sab cheezon ka owner Parmeshwar hai, to clear practice help kar sakti hai. Lekin mature believer already is conviction ke saath jee sakta hai ki sab kuch Parmeshwar ka hai, aur simple minimum se bahut aage give, share aur devote kar sakta hai. Aise person ko sirf basic rule-keeping ki language nahi, deeper stewardship aur calling ki language chahiye.
Aakhir mein law aur nurture humein gospel ki structure aur person ke stage ko saath hold karna sikhate hain. Lambs ko love aur nourishment chahiye. Growing sheep ko direction aur responsibility chahiye. Mature coworkers ko deeper mission aur freedom chahiye. Law ka benefit hai, par life gospel mein hai.2 Kurinthiyon 3:6Letter maar daalta hai, par Spirit life deta hai. Shepherd ko gospel ke andar discern, feed, tend aur build karna hai.
