Thursday's Living Water

Scripture –

"Being then the children of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and thought of man. "Therefore having overlooked the times of ignorance, God is now declaring to men that all people everywhere should repent, because He has fixed a day in which He will judge the world in righteousness through a Man whom He has appointed, having furnished proof to all men by raising Him from the dead."
Acts 17: 29-31



Siendo, pues, linaje de Dios, no debemos pensar que la naturaleza divina sea semejante a oro, plata o piedra, esculpidos por el arte y el pensamiento humano. Por tanto, habiendo pasado por alto los tiempos de ignorancia, Dios declara ahora a todos los hombres, en todas partes, que se arrepientan, porque El ha establecido un día en el cual juzgará al mundo en justicia, por medio de un Hombre a quien ha designado, habiendo presentado pruebas a todos los hombres al resucitarle de entre los muertos.
Hechos 17: 29-31

And also some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers were conversing with him. Some were saying, "What would this idle babbler wish to say?" Others, "He seems to be a proclaimer of strange deities,"--because he was preaching Jesus and the resurrection.

"For you are bringing some strange things to our ears; so we want to know what these things mean."
Acts 17: 18-20



También disputaban con él algunos de los filósofos epicúreos y estoicos. Y algunos decían: ¿Qué quiere decir este palabrero? Y otros: Parece ser un predicador de divinidades extrañas--porque les predicaba a Jesús y la resurrección.
Lo tomaron y lo llevaron al Areópago, diciendo: ¿Podemos saber qué es esta nueva enseñanza que proclamas?
Porque te oímos decir cosas extrañas; por tanto, queremos saber qué significan.

But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.

¿Qué afirma entonces? «La palabra está cerca de ti; la tienes en la boca y en el corazón.» Ésta es la palabra de fe que predicamos: que si confiesas con tu boca que Jesús es el Señor, y crees en tu corazón que Dios lo *levantó de entre los muertos, serás salvo. Porque con el corazón se cree para ser *justificado, pero con la boca se confiesa para ser salvo.
