Se単ala que el templo comienza a construirse en nosotros mismos cuando nos convertimos, y que para construir un templo f鱈sico se necesita desearlo de coraz坦n y someter el cuerpo a Dios. Tambi辿n explica que la idea de David de construir un templo para Dios vino de su deseo de honrarlo, y que las personas adecuadas para construir el templo son las que son creyentes, apartadas del mundo, obedientes, dadivosas y sacrificadas.Plan estrategicodarovi

EL HOMBRE COMUN ES UN SANTO DORMIDO Y EL SANTO ES UN HOMBRE COMUN DESPIERTO.
Que les sugiere a ustedes esta palabra: DESPIERTO.
Adem叩s de los ejemplos que se han dispensado aportar podr鱈amos considerar que estar despierto es mucho m叩s que solo estar consciente de la espiritualidad.
Sabemos que esta condici坦n espiritual se encuentra en todos los seres humanos, pero somos conscientes de ella en momentos de crisis, de enfermedad, de muerte, de necesidad, sin embargo ella est叩 presente 24/7 y que es la mayor riqueza depositada por Dios a causa de su amor a su creaci坦n. (El mayor regalo de Dios es habernos dotado de una porci坦n de l en nuestro coraz坦n.)
En el desarrollo de este tema iremos en conjunto aportando elementos que nos ayuden a comprender cu叩l es el prop坦sito de este DESPERTAR del ESPIRITU.
Los seres humanos somos indudablemente espirituales, quiere decir que Dios deposit坦 en nuestro interior una esencia que nos hace semejantes a l y EL DESPERTAR es percibir esa esencia que conduce a la vida virtuosa donde el amor y la sabidur鱈a de Dios se van rebelando poco a poco y transformando a las personas al camino de la SANTIDAD.
Confucio dijo que El hombre cumple la voluntad del cielo cuando se esfuerza en perfeccionarse a s鱈 mismo. Y esto es DESPERTAR.
Recuerdo una ense単anza en que el predicador dec鱈a: que cuando llega la luz, la oscuridad queda atr叩s. Y realmente despertar es abandonar el estado de ensue単o enga単oso para que la luz brille y se manifiesta la VERDAD.
2-_COMO VIVIMOS CUANDO ESTAMOS DORMIDOS:
EL diario vivir est叩 lleno de sufrimientos: cat叩strofes, epidemias, cr鱈menes, enfermedades y crisis econ坦micas que nos afectan directa o indirectamente pues somos parte de una gran todo social, humano, pol鱈tico.
Entonces, es frecuente que en nuestra ignorancia y adormecimiento espiritual reaccionemos disgustados con Dios por cuanto no comprendemos porque l no act炭a, con el fin de detener estos grandes problemas que generan que personas inocentes sufran por los desafueros de otros malvados.
O que grandes comunidades se vean afectadas por sucesos naturales o errores de parte de personas o grandes corporaciones que da単an el entorno natural, ecol坦gico o social. Como la deforestaci坦n, derrames de petr坦leo, guerras, etc.
Nos preguntamos airadamente 多Porqu辿 Dios no hace nada al respecto? y a veces hasta levantamos el dedo acusador demandando a los cielos la intervenci坦n divina.
Acusamos a los dem叩s e incluso a Dios del mal que acontece a diario y nos absolvemos a nosotros mismos evadiendo la responsabilidad espiritual que requiere asumir un compromiso con Dios y su creaci坦n-
Por eso en nuestra ignorancia nos hacemos los sordos, Y teniendo o鱈dos para o鱈r no escuchamos la voz de Dios, que desde muy adentro de nuestro coraz坦n nos dice:
Para esto te he creado, para esto te puse en este mundo!!!Hombre santo y hombre com炭nFernando Fersho

Discipleship is important because it fosters spiritual growth, deepens a believer's relationship with God, and equips them to live out their faith and share it with others. It's a process of learning, growing, and becoming more like Christ, guided by God's Word and through relationships with other believers.
Here's a more detailed look at why discipleship is important:
1. Fulfilling the Great Commission:
Jesus commanded his followers to "make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19-20).
Discipleship is the practical outworking of this command, going beyond initial conversion to ongoing growth and transformation.
It involves teaching believers to obey all that Jesus commanded, not just initial beliefs.
2. Growing in Spiritual Maturity:
Discipleship helps believers mature in their faith, moving beyond basic understanding to a deeper knowledge of God and His will.
It involves learning to apply biblical principles to all areas of life, including relationships, work, and service.
Through discipleship, believers can develop Christ-like character traits and learn to live a life of purpose and meaning.
3. Building Stronger Communities:
Discipleship fosters unity and mutual support within the church community.
It encourages believers to encourage, challenge, and pray for one another.
When believers are actively involved in discipleship, they are more likely to participate in church life and contribute their gifts to the body of Christ.
4. Empowering Believers to Share Their Faith:
Discipleship equips believers to effectively share their faith with others and invite them to follow Jesus.
It provides the tools and confidence needed to disciple others, creating a ripple effect of spiritual growth.
Discipleship is not just about personal growth; it's also about reaching out to the world with the love and message of Christ.
5. Impacting the World for Christ:
Discipleship is essential for building a strong and vibrant church that can impact communities and the world for Christ.
Disciples who are equipped to live out their faith can make a significant difference in their families, workplaces, and neighborhoods.
By making disciples, the church can continue to grow and fulfill its mission of reaching the lost and transforming lives. Despite the benefits, many self-professing Christians today are not involved in discipleship. A recent study from the Barna Group showed that 39% of Christians were not engaged in discipleship at allthat is a huge percentage! And while 61% said they were involved in some level of discipleship, there are different levels of involvement.
In the Barna study, they defined Christians who were engaged in discipleship community as those who were both being discipled by someone and discipling others. We understand that discipleship is a broad term, and can encompass many things. For reference, here is how we define discipleship at Life on Life:
