Pa Kite Twonpe Nou: Bondye Pa Ka Pase Nan Betiz

Galat 6:7 (CSB)
"Pa kite twonpe nou: Bondye pa ka pase nan betiz. Paske nenpòt bagay yon moun simen, se sa li pral rekòlte tou." — Galat 6:7 (CSB)

Anpil moun renmen site dezyèm pati vèsè Galat 6:7 la:
"Bondye pa ka pase nan betiz."
Pandan deklarasyon sa a vrè nèt, anpil moun neglije premye pati vèsè a:
"Pa kite twonpe nou."
Apot Pòl kòmanse avèk yon avètisman anvan li bay prensip la. Poukisa? Paske twonpri danjere. Twonpri fè moun kwè yo ka viv kontrèman ak Pawòl Bondye epi yo pa janm sibi konsekans yo.
Lagras Bondye ekstraòdinè, men prensip Bondye yo pa janm chanje.
Danje Twonpri
Twonpri rive lè nou konvenk tèt nou ke sa ki mal bon, ke fènwa se limyè, oswa ke dezobeyisans akseptab devan Bondye.

Moun twonpe tèt yo lè yo panse:
Yo ka viv san repantans.
Yo ka inyore kòmandman Bondye yo.
Yo ka maltrete lòt moun san konsekans.
Yo ka simen peche epi rekòlte jistis.
Yo ka rejte verite Bondye epi toujou jwi benediksyon Bondye yo.

Bib la di:
"Pa kite twonpe nou."
Pi gwo danje a se pa lè lòt moun twonpe nou; se lè nou twonpe tèt nou.
Bondye Pa Ka Pase Nan Betiz
Pase Bondye nan betiz vle di aji tankou Bondye pa wè, pa konnen, oswa pa pran swen fason nou ap viv.
Bondye wè tout aksyon.
Bondye tande tout pawòl.
Bondye konnen tout entansyon kè nou.
Pa gen anyen ki kache devan Li.
Moun ka twonpe zanmi yo, fanmi yo, manm legliz yo, e menm tèt yo, men pesonn pa ka twonpe Bondye.
Senyè a gen pasyans, mizèrikòd, ak lanmou, men Li pa janm pase nan betiz.

Lwa Simen ak Rekòlte a
Pòl kontinye:
"Paske nenpòt bagay yon moun simen, se sa li pral rekòlte tou."
Sa se yon prensip espirityèl ki afekte tout domèn lavi nou.

Si nou simen:
Lanmou, nou pral rekòlte lanmou.
Jantiyès, nou pral rekòlte jantiyès.
Jenewozite, nou pral rekòlte benediksyon.

Fidelite, nou pral rekòlte favè Bondye.
Menm jan an tou:
Rayisman pwodui divizyon.
Ògèy pwodui destriksyon.
Parese pwodui mank.
Peche pwodui lanmò.
Chak grenn gen yon rekòt.
Rekòt la ka pa vini imedyatman, men li pral vini.
Egzamine Grenn W Ap Simen Yo
Anvan nou plenyen sou rekòt nou, nou dwe egzamine grenn nou ap simen yo.

Kisa n ap plante avèk pawòl nou?

Kisa n ap plante avèk aksyon nou?

Kisa n ap plante nan fanmi nou?

Kisa n ap plante nan kominote nou?

Kisa n ap plante nan Wayòm Bondye a?

Pa gen rekòt san yon grenn ki te simen anvan.
Yon Apèl Pou Repantans ak Lafwa
Bon nouvèl la se ke Jezikri ofri padon ak yon nouvo kòmansman.
Petèt ou te simen kèk grenn ou regrèt.
Petèt ou te lwen Bondye.
Petèt ou te kite twonpe ou.
Jodi a se jou pou retounen jwenn Kris la.
Lagras Bondye kapab padone pase ou epi transfòme avni ou.
Lè nou repanti epi mete konfyans nou nan Kris la, Li ban nou fòs pou nou kòmanse simen grenn jistis, lafwa, obeyisans, ak lanmou.

Ankourajman Final
Pwochen fwa ou site Galat 6:7, pa rete sèlman nan mwatye vèsè a.

Sonje tout vèsè a:
"Pa kite twonpe nou: Bondye pa ka pase nan betiz. Paske nenpòt bagay yon moun simen, se sa li pral rekòlte tou."
Ann rejte twonpri, ann anbrase verite Bondye, epi ann simen grenn ki bay Jezi Kris glwa.
Rekòt la ap vini.
Asire w ou ap simen bon grenn yo.

Don't Be Deceived: God Is Not Mocked

Galatians 6:7 (CSB)
"Don't be deceived: God is not mocked. For whatever a person sows he will also reap." — Galatians 6:7 (CSB)

By Bishop Theron J. Hawkins
New Life Haitian Baptist Church

Many people love to quote the second half of Galatians 6:7:
"God is not mocked."
While that statement is absolutely true, many people overlook the first part of the verse:
"Don't be deceived."

The Apostle Paul begins with a warning before he gives the principle. Why? Because deception is dangerous. Deception causes people to believe they can live contrary to God's Word and somehow escape the consequences.

God's grace is amazing, but His principles remain unchanged.

The Danger of Deception
Deception occurs when we convince ourselves that wrong is right, darkness is light, or disobedience is acceptable to God.

People deceive themselves when they think:
They can live without repentance.

They can ignore God's commands.

They can mistreat others without consequences.

They can sow sin and reap righteousness.

They can reject God's truth and still enjoy God's blessings.

The Bible says:
"Don't be deceived."
The greatest danger is not being deceived by others; it is being deceived by ourselves.
God Is Not Mocked
To mock God is to treat Him as if He does not see, know, or care about how we live.
God sees every action.
God hears every word.
God knows every motive.
Nothing escapes His attention.
People may fool their friends, family members, church members, or even themselves, but nobody fools God.
The Lord is patient, merciful, and loving, but He is never mocked.

The Law of Sowing and Reaping
Paul continues:
"For whatever a person sows he will also reap."

This is a spiritual principle that affects every area of life.
If we sow:
Love, we reap love.
Kindness, we reap kindness.
Generosity, we reap generosity.
Faithfulness, we reap blessing.

Likewise:
Hatred produces division.
Pride produces destruction.
Laziness produces lack.
Sin produces death.
Every seed eventually produces a harvest.

The harvest may not come immediately, but it will come.

Examine Your Seeds
Before we complain about our harvest, we must examine our seed.

What are we planting with our words?

What are we planting with our actions?

What are we planting in our families?

What are we planting in our communities?

What are we planting in the Kingdom of God?

A harvest never appears without a seed first being planted.

A Call to Repentance and Faith
The good news is that Jesus Christ offers forgiveness and a new beginning.
Perhaps you have sown seeds you regret.
Perhaps you have wandered from God.
Perhaps you have been deceived.

Today is the day to return to Christ.
God's grace can forgive your past and transform your future.

When we repent and trust Christ, He gives us the power to begin sowing seeds of righteousness, faith, obedience, and love.

Final Encouragement
The next time you quote Galatians 6:7, don't stop halfway.
Remember the entire verse:
"Don't be deceived: God is not mocked. For whatever a person sows he will also reap."
Let us reject deception, embrace God's truth, and faithfully sow seeds that honor Jesus Christ.
The harvest is coming.
Make sure you're planting the right seeds.
