Mandamientos imposibles: Cómo obedecer a Dios cuando no parece posible (Spanish Edition)
Mandamientos imposibles: Cómo obedecer a Dios cuando no parece posible (Spanish Edition)
Overview
Description
Cuando los mandamientos de Dios suenan imposibles, la mayoría de nosotros buscamos excusas, optamos por no obecer, o pretendemos que nos va mejor de lo que estamos. En Mandamientos imposibles, el autor Jonty Allcock nos muestra que la obediencia puede ser una alegría que da vida en lugar de ser trabajo, un placer en lugar de un deber.
Como creyentes, nos esforzamos por complacer a Dios a través de nuestra obediencia, pero a menudo fallamos. Por mucho que lo intentemos, el cumplimiento de los mandamientos bíblicos como «regocíjate siempre», «no tengas miedo», «da alegremente» y «ámense los unos a los otros» puede ser fácilmente eludido.
Pero imaginen una vida donde la obediencia a Dios es una fuente de alegría profunda y satisfactoria. Imaginen una vida donde la obediencia no es una carga, sino el deseo y el anhelo de nuestros corazones. ¿Suena eso como un sueño imposible? Le sorprenderá saber que este es el tipo de vida que la Biblia nos anima a seguir.
En este libro, el pastor Jonty Allcock nos guía a través de un proceso de cuatro pasos que nos ayudará a mirarnos menos a nosotros mismos y a depender más de Dios, permitiendo una obediencia alegre guiada por el espíritu. Los cuatro pasos implican admitir a nosotros mismos y decir lo siguiente:
- No puedo (honestidad sobre nuestra propia impotencia)
- Lo siento (pena por nuestra obstinada negativa)
- Por favor, ayuda (llamada esperanzadora a nuestro Padre celestial)
- Vamos (levantándonos y empezando a obedecer)
Al enfrentarnos a las imposibles órdenes de Jesús, llegamos al final de nuestra propia voluntad y determinación, y terminamos a los pies de Jesús. Escapamos de la esclavitud de lo imposible y nos encontramos en las manos de un Dios que puede hacer todas las cosas. Donde no obedecemos, hay gracia. Donde logramos obedecer, allí encontramos el milagro de la obediencia guiada por el Espíritu.
Impossible Commands
When God's commandments sound impossible, most of us look for excuses, choose not to obey, or pretend we are doing better than we are. In Impossible Commands, author Jonty Allcock shows us that obedience can be a life-giving joy instead of work, a pleasure instead of a duty.
As believers, we strive to please God through our obedience, but we often fail. No matter how hard we try, the fulfillment of biblical commands such as rejoice always, be not afraid, give cheerfully, and love one another can easily be circumvented.
But imagine a life where obedience to God is a source of deep and satisfying joy. Imagine a life where obedience is not a burden, but the desire and longing of our hearts. Does that sound like an impossible dream? You may be surprised to learn that this is the kind of life the Bible encourages us to follow.
In this book, Pastor Jonty Allcock guides us through a four-step process that will help us look less at ourselves and depend more on God, allowing for joyful, spirit-led obedience. The four steps involve admitting ourselves and saying the following:
- I can't (honesty about our own helplessness)
- I'm sorry (sorry for our stubborn refusal)
- Please help (hopeful call to our heavenly Father)
- Let's go (get up and start obeying)
