Mateo 16

Studie

   

1 At nagsilapit ang mga Fariseo at mga Saduceo, na tinutukso siya na sa kaniya'y nagsisihiling na sila'y pagpakitaan ng isang tanda na mula sa langit.

2 Datapuwa't siya'y sumagot at sa kanila'y sinabi, Sa kinahapunan, ay sinasabi ninyo, Bubuti ang panahon: sapagka't ang langit ay mapula.

3 At sa umaga, Ngayo'y uunos: sapagka't mapula at makulimlim ang langit. Kayo'y marurunong magsikilala ng anyo ng langit; datapuwa't hindi ninyo mangakilala ang mga tanda ng mga panahon.

4 Ang isang lahing masama at mapangalunya ay humahanap ng tanda; at hindi siya bibigyan ng anomang tanda, kundi ng tanda ni Jonas. At sila'y iniwan niya, at yumaon.

5 At nagsidating ang mga alagad sa kabilang ibayo at nangakalimot na mangagdala ng tinapay.

6 At sinabi sa kanila ni Jesus, Kayo'y mangagingat at magsipangilag sa lebadura ng mga Fariseo at mga Saduceo.

7 At sila'y nangagkatuwiranan sa kanilang sarili, na nagsasabi, Hindi tayo nangakapagbaon ng tinapay.

8 At nang matalastas ni Jesus ay sinabi, Oh kayong kakaunti ang pananampalataya, bakit kayo'y nangagbubulaybulay sa inyong sarili, sapagka't wala kayong tinapay?

9 Hindi pa baga ninyo natatalastas, at hindi ninyo naaalaala ang limang tinapay sa limang libong lalake, at kung ilang bakol ang inyong nailigpit?

10 Ni yaong pitong tinapay sa apat na libong lalake, at kung ilang bakol ang inyong nailigpit?

11 Ano't hindi ninyo napaguunawa na hindi ang sinabi ko sa inyo'y tungkol sa tinapay? Datapuwa't kayo'y mangagingat sa lebadura ng mga Fariseo at ng mga Saduceo.

12 Nang magkagayo'y kanilang natalastas na sa kanila'y hindi ipinagutos na sila'y magsipagingat sa lebadura ng tinapay, kundi sa mga aral ng mga Fariseo at ng mga Saduceo.

13 Nang dumating nga si Jesus sa mga sakop ng Cesarea ni Filipo, ay itinanong niya sa kaniyang mga alagad, na sinasabi, Ano baga ang sabi ng mga tao kung sino ang Anak ng tao?

14 At kanilang sinabi, Anang ilan, Si Juan Bautista; ang ilan, Si Elias; at ang mga iba, Si Jeremias, o isa sa mga propeta.

15 Kaniyang sinabi sa kanila, Datapuwa't, ano ang sabi ninyo kung sino ako?

16 At sumagot si Simon Pedro at sinabi, Ikaw ang Cristo, Ang anak ng Dios na buhay.

17 At sumagot si Jesus at sa kaniya'y sinabi, Mapalad ka, Simon Bar-Jonas: sapagka't hindi ipinahayag sa iyo ito ng laman at ng dugo, kundi ng aking Ama na nasa langit.

18 At sinasabi ko naman sa iyo, na ikaw ay Pedro, at sa ibabaw ng batong ito ay itatayo ko ang aking iglesia; at ang mga pintuan ng Hades ay hindi magsisipanaig laban sa kaniya.

19 Ibibigay ko sa iyo ang mga susi ng kaharian ng langit: at anomang iyong talian sa lupa ay tatalian sa langit; at anomang iyong kalagan sa lupa ay kakalagan sa langit.

20 Nang magkagayo'y ipinagbilin niya sa mga alagad na huwag sabihin kanino man na siya ang Cristo.

21 Mula ng panahong yao'y nagpasimulang ipinakilala ni Jesus sa kaniyang mga alagad, na kinakailangang siya'y pumaroon sa Jerusalem, at magbata ng maraming bagay sa matatanda at sa mga pangulong saserdote at sa mga eskriba, at siya'y patayin, at muling ibangon sa ikatlong araw.

22 At isinama siya ni Pedro, at nagpasimulang siya'y pinagwikaan, na nagsasabi, Panginoon, malayo ito sa iyo: kailan man ay hindi mangyayari ito sa iyo.

23 Datapuwa't lumingon siya, at sinabi kay Pedro, Lumagay ka sa likuran ko, Satanas: ikaw ay tisod sa akin: sapagka't hindi mo pinagiisip ang mga bagay ng Dios, kundi ang mga bagay ng tao.

24 Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ni Jesus sa kaniyang mga alagad, Kung ang sinomang tao'y ibig sumunod sa akin ay tumanggi sa kaniyang sarili, at pasanin ang kaniyang krus, at sumunod sa akin.

25 Sapagka't ang sinomang magibig iligtas ang kaniyang buhay ay mawawalan nito: at ang sinomang mawalan ng kaniyang buhay dahil sa akin ay makakasumpong niyaon.

26 Sapagka't ano ang pakikinabangin ng tao, kung makamtan niya ang buong sanglibutan at mawawalan siya ng kaniyang buhay? o ano ang ibibigay ng tao na katumbas sa kaniyang buhay?

27 Sapagka't ang Anak ng tao ay pariritong nasa kaluwalhatian ng kaniyang Ama na kasama ang kaniyang mga anghel; at kung magkagayo'y bibigyan ang bawa't tao ayon sa kaniyang mga gawa.

28 Katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo, May ilan sa nangakatayo rito, na hindi matitikman sa anomang paraan ang kamatayan, hanggang sa kanilang makita ang Anak ng tao na pumaparito sa kaniyang kaharian.

A Brief Exposition of New Church Doctrine # 110

110. A. To everyone after death is imputed the evil in which he is, and in like manner the good. In order that this may appear in some measure evident, it shall be set forth as follows:

1. Everyone has a life peculiar to himself.

2. Everyone's own life remains with him after death.

3. To the wicked is then imputed the evil of their life, and to the good the good of their life. First.-That everyone has a life peculiar to himself, thus distinct from that of another's, is well known. For there is perpetual variety; no two things are the same. Hence it is that everyone has his own proprium. 1 This appears clearly from people's faces; no one face is exactly like another's, nor ever can be to eternity, because there do not exist two minds alike, and the face is according to the mind. For the face, as is said, is an image of the mind, and the mind derives its origin and form from the life. Unless a man had his own life, just as he has his own mind and face, he would not have any life after death distinct from another's; nay, heaven could not exist. For heaven consists of a perpetual variety of others; its form proceeds solely from the variety of souls and minds disposed into such an order that they make a unity; and they make a unity from that One Whose life is in each and everything there, as the soul is in man. Unless this were so, heaven would be dispersed, because its form would be dissolved. The ONE from Whom the life of each and everyone proceeds, and from Whom that form coheres, is the Lord.

[2] Second: That everyone's own life remains with him after death is known in the Church from the Word, and from these statements therein:

The Son of Man shall come...and then He shall reward every man according to his works. Matthew 16:27.

I saw the books opened ...and all were judged according to their works. Revelation 20:12-13.

In the day of judgment God will render to everyone according to his works. Romans 2:6; 2 Corinthians 5:10.

The works according to which everyone will be recompensed are the life; for the life performs the works, and these are according to the life. Since it has been granted me for many years to associate with angels and to speak with newcomers from the world, I can testify for certain that everyone there is examined as to the quality of his past life, and that the life which he has contracted in the world remains with him to eternity. I have spoken with those who lived many ages ago, whose life was known to me from history, and I have found them to be similar to the way they had been described. I have also heard from angels that no one's life can be changed after death because it is organised according to his love and faith, hence according to his works; and that if it were changed the organisation would be disrupted; but this can never be done. I have also been told that a change of organisation can take place only when in the material body, and by no means when in the spiritual body, after the former has been laid aside.

[3] Third: To the wicked is then imputed the evil of their life, and to the good the good of their life. The imputation of evil after death is not accusation, blame, censure, or passing judgment as in the world, but evil itself does this. For the wicked of their own freedom separate themselves from the good, because they cannot be together. The delights of the love of evil are averse to the delights of the love of good, and delights exhale from everyone there as odours from every plant on earth. For delights are not absorbed and concealed by the material body as before, but flow forth freely from their loves into the spiritual atmosphere. And because evil is there sensed, as it were, in its own odour, it is this which accuses, blames, finds guilty and judges, not before any particular judge, but in the presence of everyone who is in good; this is what is meant by imputation. The imputation of good is similar, and takes place with those who in the world had acknowledged that all the good in them was and is from the Lord, and none from themselves. These, after they have been prepared, are let into the interior delights of their own good, and then a way is opened for them into heaven, to the society where the delights are akin to their own. This is done by the Lord.

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. The Latin word Proprium means "what is one's own," Swedenborg uses it in a special sense involving "what is of the self."
