J\u00e9sus a accept\u00e9 de tout sacrifier par amour pour le monde. Il a pris sur lui le ch\u00e2timent de nos fautes, afin que nous puissions conna\u00eetre Dieu personnellement pour toujours. Par sa mort et sa r\u00e9surrection, il nous permet d’avoir une relation intime avec lui.<\/p>\n
Jesus opened the way for us to know him, but it's up to us to make the choice whether or not to follow him.<\/p>\n
\u00ab Si quelqu’un veut me suivre, qu’il renonce \u00e0 lui-m\u00eame, qu’il se charge de sa croix et qu’il me suive. En effet, celui qui est pr\u00e9occup\u00e9 de sauver sa vie la perdra ; mais celui qui perdra sa vie \u00e0 cause de moi et de l’\u00c9vangile, la sauvera. \u00bb Marc 8 :34-35 S21<\/strong><\/p>\n What it means to take up one's cross<\/strong> ?<\/p>\n Pour J\u00e9sus, la croix \u00e9tait un objet r\u00e9el sur lequel il a souffert et a donn\u00e9 sa vie. C’\u00e9tait la repr\u00e9sentation physique du fardeau spirituel qu’il a port\u00e9.<\/p>\n La croix repr\u00e9sente \u00e9galement la souffrance et les sacrifices que nous choisissons d’endurer par amour et par ob\u00e9issance \u00e0 Christ.<\/p>\n Les ap\u00f4tres consid\u00e9raient la souffrance comme une occasion de se rapprocher de J\u00e9sus. \u00c0 l’inverse, nos cultures pr\u00e9sentent la souffrance comme un obstacle au plaisir imm\u00e9diat. J\u00e9sus a affirm\u00e9 que lui donner notre vie \u00e9tait essentiel, car il est le chemin de la vie \u00e9ternelle. Cependant, le monde affirme que prendre soin de soi est la cl\u00e9 d’une vie abondante.<\/p>\n Prendre ta croix signifie renoncer \u00e0 ton d\u00e9sir de mener ta vie comme tu l’entends. Cela signifie laisser J\u00e9sus dicter la trajectoire de ta vie et faire de lui ta priorit\u00e9.<\/p>\n Paradoxalement, refuser de prendre ta croix et de suivre J\u00e9sus ne t’emp\u00eachera pas de souffrir. Les difficult\u00e9s seront toujours pr\u00e9sentes. Et en fin de compte, tu renonceras aux promesses \u00e9ternelles de J\u00e9sus pour jouir de quelques moments fugaces de plaisir et de confort.<\/p>\n Porter ta croix est un acte que tu accomplis de ce c\u00f4t\u00e9-ci de l’\u00e9ternit\u00e9. Mais un jour, tu ressusciteras et tu auras une nouvelle vie, sans larmes, ni souffrance, ni mort et ni douleur. Vivre \u00e9ternellement dans la pr\u00e9sence de Dieu, c’est la promesse que J\u00e9sus te fait lorsqu’il te demande de le suivre. C’est la vie \u00e0 laquelle tu peux aspirer lorsque tu donnes ta vie \u00e0 J\u00e9sus.<\/p>\n Pastor Cl\u00e9mentine<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Obedience to Christ<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2730,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3955","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-enseignements-biblique"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/paroledevie.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3955","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/paroledevie.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/paroledevie.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paroledevie.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paroledevie.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3955"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/paroledevie.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3955\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3958,"href":"https:\/\/paroledevie.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3955\/revisions\/3958"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paroledevie.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2730"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/paroledevie.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3955"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paroledevie.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3955"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paroledevie.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3955"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
