نامۀ پولُس رسول به اِفِسُسیان

فصل ششم

روابط فرزندان با والدین

۱ ای فرزندان، از والدین تان مطابق با خواست خداوند اطاعت کنید، زیرا این کار درست است. ۲ اولین حکمی که با وعده همراه بود، این است: «پدر و مادر خود را احترام کن» و وعدۀ آن این بود: ۳ «تا کامیاب گردی و در روی زمین عمر طولانی داشته باشی.»

۴ شما ای پدران، فرزندان خود را خشمگین نسازید بلکه آنها را مطابق خواست خداوند تربیه و نصیحت کنید.

روابط غلامان و اربابان

۵ ای غلامان، اربابان خود را در این دنیا چنان صادقانه اطاعت کنید که گویی از مسیح با ترس و لرز اطاعت می کنید. ۶ اطاعت شما فقط به خاطر این نباشد که تحت مراقبت هستید و یا می خواهید دیگران را خوشنود سازید، بلکه به عنوان غلامان مسیح، ارادۀ خدا را از دل و جان بجا آورید ۷ و خدمت خود را با علاقه انجام دهید، مانند کسی که خداوند را خدمت می کند، نه انسان را. ۸ زیرا می دانید که خداوند به هر کس خواه غلام، خواه آزاد، موافق کارهای خوبی که کرده است، اجر می دهد.

۹ ای اربابان، شما نیز نسبت به غلامان خود همین طور رفتار کنید و از تهدید آنها دست بکشید و به یاد داشته باشید که آنها و شما در آسمان یک ارباب دارید و او از کسی طرفداری نمی کند.

برای جنگ روحانی با شیطان آماده باشید

۱۰ دیگر این که در خداوند، قوی باشید و از قدرت بی اندازۀ او نیرو بگیرید. ۱۱ زِرِه کاملی را که خدا برای شما تهیه کرده است، بپوشید تا بتوانید در مقابل حیله های شیطان مقاومت کنید. ۱۲ زیرا جنگ ما با جسم و خون انسانی نیست بلکه ما بر ضد نیروهای شیطانی و قدرتهای حاکم بر این دنیای تاریک و روحهای شریر در آسمان در جنگ هستیم. ۱۳ از این خاطر زِرِۀ کاملی را که خدا تهیه کرده است بپوشید تا در آن روز شریر مقاومت کنید و با انجام این کارها تا آخر پایدار بمانید.

۱۴ پس استقامت داشته و کمربند حقیقت را به کمر بسته کنید و سینه پوش عدالت را بپوشید ۱۵ و کفشهای آماده گی برای رسانیدن خبر خوش صلح و سلامتی را به پا کنید. ۱۶ علاوه بر این همه، سپر ایمان را بگیرید تا به وسیلۀ آن بتوانید تمام تیرهای آتشین آن شریر را بی اثر سازید. ۱۷ کلاه آهنی نجات را بر سر گذاشته و شمشیر روح مقدس یعنی کلام خدا را به دست بگیرید. ۱۸ همۀ اینها را با دعا و درخواست انجام دهید. همیشه با هدایت روح مقدس دعا کنید و پیوسته برای این منظور بیدار باشید و با پایداری برای همۀ ایمانداران دعا کنید. ۱۹ برای من نیز دعا کنید تا زمانی که سخن می گویم، قدرت بیان به من عطا گردد و بتوانم راز این خبر خوش را با شجاعت اعلام کنم. ۲۰ زیرا به خاطر همان خبر خوش است که من سفیر شدم، هر چند سفیری در زنجیر! دعا کنید که من آن را، چنان که باید یعنی با شجاعت بیان کنم.

سخنان پایانی

۲۱ تیخیکاس برادر عزیز ما و خدمتگار وفادار خداوند، همه چیز را به شما خواهد گفت تا شما هم بدانید که احوالم چطور است و چه می کنم. ۲۲ به همین دلیل او را نزد شما فرستادم تا از احوال ما با خبر شوید و خاطر تان از طرف ما جمع شود.

۲۳ از خدای پدر و سَروَر ما عیسای مسیح، می خواهم که به همۀ ایمانداران سلامتی و محبتِ همراه با ایمان عطا فرماید. ۲۴ فیض خدا بر همۀ آنهایی باد که سَروَر ما عیسای مسیح را با محبت بی پایان دوست دارند.

The behavior of Gulalai's children

The behavior of Gulalai's children (Colour of Life)
Occasionally, the breeze of spring and the fragrance of colorful flowers caress the human soul and psyche, and sometimes the bitter, cruel and torrential bitterness of life is attacked from all sides. Couples who have just achieved their dreams are eagerly awaiting the birth of their cohabitation. Fathers unite day and night, working to calm and see their children's funny lips. Mothers sacrifice their sweet and comfortable dreams for their children's happy moments, and their thousands of problems and tiredness can only be healed by their children's smiles. But when children have a place and a position, they not only ignore all those hardships and homelessness, but some of them don't even have time to see their parents. We invite you to listen to this program. Thank!

Khan Wali: A Man Who Breaks the Tradition

Khan Wali: A Man Who Breaks the Tradition (Colour of Life)
The reprehensible custom of giving child brides to settle disputes is common in our country. Khan Wali is a man who objects to outrageous and shocking customs like this in his native Paktiya. He wants to abolish these practices not only from his own province, but from the whole country. He relates some painful stories from his home province. Girls in Afghanistan who are given as peace offerings are not treated as human beings when they enter the home of their enemies. They are viewed as enemies and murders. They are beaten every day. They are forced to do hard labour. They suffer in other cruel ways and often die in mysterious circumstances. And these acts are all considered acceptable in a “compensation marriage”. All these cruel acts are criminal, abhorrent and inhuman.

Warning to the Rich

Warning to the Rich (With You)
When we look at these verses, we see how the rich exploit the helpless and oppressed. They take advantage of their energy and hard work, and do not pay them. God hears the cries of such people and sends pain and suffering to the rich who love money. From these verses we learn that whether we are employers or workers, we must recognize that God is present in our lives, and we must do what is right.

Our War Is Not With Humans

Our War Is Not With Humans (Peace and Joy in Christ)
We can fight the devil with the help of God's power, because God is much bigger and stronger than Satan. After putting on the battle uniform, we must know these facts about our enemy: First, he is a spirit and invisible that cannot be seen. Second, as we mentioned before, he is very strong. Thirdly, he is very wicked and cruel and a liar. He is the leader of all the spiritual forces of evil. There is no sign of mercy and goodness in him. But the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit of God, is strong and stronger, which is present only in believers in Christ.

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. He wants to kill doubts and temptations in our minds. There is no need for us to have a low self-esteem and think that we are weak, of course we are weak! But God and the Holy Spirit are higher and stronger than the evil spirit. Let's try to know who is our enemy today? Do we know the tactics of the enemy?

What Does the Bible Say About Evil Spirits?

What Does the Bible Say About Evil Spirits? (Peace and Joy in Christ)
We, the followers of Christ, who belong to God, have overcome them. He who is in us is Jesus Christ, or more precisely, the Holy Spirit or the Spirit of Christ. Jesus lives in us through the Holy Spirit. What is meant by the one who is in the world is Satan, the ruler of all unclean and wicked spirits. Jesus Christ called Satan the ruler of this world. So let us never say that we Christians are weak and helpless. We may be in the minority in terms of numbers, but in terms of power we are far greater than Satan and his followers. We are not weak at all, because we have all the power of God on our side. Jesus is greater than Satan and all unclean spirits.

Peace With Myself

Peace With Myself (With You)
Peace literally means harmony and reconciliation. It is the opposite of war. Peace means resolving differences and coming to agreement. Peace with self means that we become our own "closest" friend. We must clear our mind of hatred towards ourselves, of grudges, of comparison with others, of jealousy and of all unattractive qualities. When we appreciate ourselves instead of envying others, we are actually at peace with ourselves. When we see our beauty and positive points instead of our faults, we are at peace with ourselves. When we love ourselves instead of hating ourselves, we are actually at peace with ourselves.
