نامۀ اول پِطرُس رسول

فصل پنجم

نظارت از گلۀ خدا

۱ من به عنوان یکی از رهبران که شاهد رنجهایی مسیح بوده ام و در جلالی که به زودی آشکار خواهد شد خود را شریک می دانم، به رهبرانی که در میان شما هستند، چنین نصیحت می کنم: ۲ گلۀ خدا را آن گونه که خواست خداست، با علاقه مندی چوپانی و نظارت کنید، نه از روی اجبار و یا به خاطر فایدۀ شخصی بلکه با اشتیاق و محبت. ۳ بر کسانی که خدا آنها را به شما سپرده است، حکمرانی نکنید بلکه نمونۀ خوبی برای آن گله باشید. ۴ وقتی چوپان بزرگ ظاهر می شود، شما تاج پُر شکوه را به دست خواهید آورد که هرگز از بین نخواهد رفت.

۵ همین گونه شما که جوانتر هستید، از رهبران خود اطاعت کنید. همۀ تان قدیفۀ فروتنی را به کمر تان بسته نموده و یکدیگر را خدمت کنید، زیرا خداوند بر ضد متکبران است اما فروتنان را سربلند می کند. ۶ پس در مقابل قدرت خدا فروتن باشید تا او شما را در وقت مناسب سربلند سازد. ۷ بار همۀ تشویشهای تان را بر دوش خدا بگذارید، زیرا او از شما مواظبت می کند.

۸ هوشیار و بیدار باشید زیرا دشمن شما شیطان، چون شیر غران به هر طرف می گردد و می پالد که به چه کسی حمله کرده و او را از بین ببرد. ۹ با ایمان پایدار در برابر شیطان مقاومت کنید، زیرا می دانید که برادران شما در تمام دنیا به همین مشکلات دچار شده اند. ۱۰ اما، پس از آن که برای مدت کوتاهی رنج دیدید، خدایی که پُر از فیض می باشد و ما را در اتحاد با عیسای مسیح در جلال ابدی خود فرا خوانده است، شما را کامل، استوار، قوی و پا بر جا خواهد ساخت. ۱۱ قدرت تا به ابد از آن خدا باد! آمین.

سخنان پایانی

۱۲ این نامۀ کوتاه را به کمک سیلاس که او را یک برادر وفادار می دانم، به شما نوشتم تا باعث تشویق شما گردم و شهادت بدهم که همین فیض حقیقی خداست و شما در آن پایدار بمانید.

۱۳ کلیسای شهر بابل که مانند شما برگزیدۀ خداست به شما سلام می رساند، همچنان پسر خواندۀ من مرقُس به شما نیز سلام می گوید. ۱۴ یکدیگر را با بوسۀ محبت آمیز سلام گویید. بر همۀ شما که در اتحاد با مسیح زندگی می کنید، صلح و سلامتی باد.

Where Do People Receive Their Healing?

Where Do People Receive Their Healing? (Healing Cries)
The Bible does not ignore human wounds (such as heartbreak, trauma, grief, anxiety, and rejection) but, as a book of healing, takes a deep and comforting approach to them. The main message of the Bible is that God is aware of hidden pain, is close to the wounded, and has the power to heal the soul. Contrary to the “be a man and don’t cry” belief, the Bible encourages people to tell God about their pain. The Bible says that suffering is not in vain and that God can use it to grow in character and faith. Even Jesus Christ, after his resurrection, bore the scars of nails and spears on his body. This shows that wounds may not be cleansed, but they can be “glorified” and become signs of victory and strength, not weakness. Dear compatriots: Jesus Christ invites you to this salvation – healing – health and peace; so that you may have strength and joy in your times of hardship and pain.

Childbearing and Its Challenges in the Lives of Young Couples

Childbearing and Its Challenges in the Lives of Young Couples (Youth)
The reality of life shows that having a child is not just smiles and joy, it also brings responsibilities and pressures that, if the young couple is not ready, may cast a shadow on their relationship. After the birth of a child, the views of the husband and wife on upbringing, discipline or education may differ. If these differences do not lead to dialogue and understanding, they will turn into disagreements. Before having a child, it is better for the couple to talk to each other about the principles of raising a child and reach an agreement. No parent is perfect. The world and the needs of children are also constantly changing. Couples should use healthy resources, educational books and the experience of successful parents. Learning is a sign of humility and growth. We should always keep one thing in mind that we should bring up a child according to our circumstances and economy. So that in the future they will be born a godly and good person.

Stress Management and Mental Health

Stress Management and Mental Health (Youth)
Stress is the body's natural response to pressure and worry. When we face a problem, a lot of responsibility, or fear of the future, our body and mind go into a state of alert. To some extent, stress can be beneficial and make us active to do things, but when it becomes excessive and persistent, it harms mental health. Continuous stress can cause anxiety, insomnia, mental fatigue, and even physical problems such as headaches and stomachaches. When our minds are full of worries, we lose focus, get angry easily, and even our relationships with others deteriorate. Too much stress is like a burden that, if carried for a long time, can wear us down.

Why Does God Allow Satan to Attack Us?

Why Does God Allow Satan to Attack Us? (Peace and Joy in Christ)
If all things work together for our good, is the devil also one of them? Does God use the devil for our good? God uses the devil for our good. So let us be vigilant and awake. The devil tries to lead us into sin and disobedience, and in this way destroy us, and devour us. The devil's goal is to destroy our fellowship with God and other believers. We need to be vigilant and awake, like a soldier in battle. We must also be vigilant in prayer. But the Bible clearly teaches that the devil is our enemy, he is a dangerous, cruel, and deceitful enemy who will stop at nothing to weaken and mislead us. In this present world, the works of the devil are not for our good, but the devil is always working to harm and destroy us.

What Do Christians Believe About Omens and Magic?

What Do Christians Believe About Omens and Magic? (With You)
Sorcerers and those who consult them are both guilty. Both groups commit sin. Since the customs and rituals of witchcraft and summoning spirits are actually a way of partnering with demons who are enemies of God, it is not surprising that the Holy Bible constantly condemns such practises. In general, the purpose of all such actions is to invite the influence of demons. All magic, witchcraft, and rituals related to satanic rites are from the devil, and those who get involved in these practises have actually joined the forces of the devil. Such people are not just ordinary unbelievers, but have openly and actively become enemies of God.

How to Know Your Enemy

How to Know Your Enemy (Peace and Joy in Christ)
The word of God says: Be alert and awake like a soldier who is ready to fight. Satan tries to lead us to sin and disobedience in order to destroy us in this way; swallow The purpose of his destruction that he wants is to distance us from God and the believers.
