2 Sam. 24:24<\/a>)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nWhen David was instructed to offer burnt offerings where the Lord had stopped the pestilence, Araunah offered as an outright gift a threshing floor, oxen, and wood for the fire. But David insisted on buying these things. He would not offer to the Lord something that cost him nothing.<\/p>\n
We know that it costs nothing to become a Christian, but we should also know that a life of genuine discipleship costs plenty. \u201cA religion that costs nothing is worth nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n
Too often the extent of our commitment is determined by considerations of convenience, cost, and comfort. Yes, we\u2019ll go to the prayer meeting if we aren\u2019t tired or if we don\u2019t have a headache. Yes, we\u2019ll teach the Bible Class as long as it doesn\u2019t conflict with a weekend in the mountains.<\/p>\n
It makes us nervous to pray in public, to give a testimony, to preach the Gospel\u2014therefore, we remain silent. We have no desire to help at the rescue mission for fear of picking up lice or fleas. We shut out any thought of the mission field because of a horror of snakes or spiders.<\/p>\n
Our giving is too often a tip instead of a sacrifice. We give what we will never miss\u2014unlike the widow who gave all. Our hospitality is determined by the measure of expense, inconvenience and mess to our homes\u2014unlike the soul winner who said that every rug in his house has been stained by drunks throwing up on them. Our availability to people in need ceases when we lie down on our water bed\u2014unlike the elder who was willing to be roused at any time in order to be of spiritual or material assistance.<\/p>\n
Very often when the call of Christ comes to us, we are prone to ask ourselves, \u201cWhat\u2019s in it for me?\u201d or \u201cWill it pay?\u201d The question is rather, \u201cIs this an offering that really costs?\u201d It has been well said, \u201cIt is better in the spiritual life that things should cost than that they should pay.\u201d<\/p>\n
When we think of what our redemption cost our Savior, it seems a poor return that we should hold back from cost and sacrifice for Him.<\/p>\n

23. M\u00e4rz<\/p>\n
\u00bbIch will dem Herrn, meinem Gott, nicht umsonst Brandopfer opfern.\u00ab\u00a02. Samuel 24,24<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nAls David angewiesen wurde, Brandopfer an der Stelle zu opfern, wo der Herr\u00a0der Pest Einhalt geboten hatte, bot ihm Arauna spontan die Tenne,\u00a0Rinder und\u00a0Feuerholz als Geschenk an. Aber David bestand darauf, diese Dinge zu kaufen. Er\u00a0wollte dem Herrn nicht etwas opfern, was ihm nichts gekostet hatte.<\/p>\n
Wir wissen, dass es uns nichts kostet, Christen zu werden, aber wir sollten\u00a0ebenso\u00a0wissen, dass uns ein Leben wahrer J\u00fcngerschaft eine Menge kostet.\u00a0\u00bbEine Religion,\u00a0die uns nichts kostet, ist auch nichts wert.\u00ab<\/p>\n
Allzu oft wird das Ausma\u00df unserer Hingabe von \u00dcberlegungen bestimmt, die Annehmlichkeit,\u00a0Kosten und Komfort zum Inhalt haben. Ja, wir gehen\u00a0zur Gebetsstunde,\u00a0wenn wir nicht gerade m\u00fcde sind oder Kopfweh haben.\u00a0Ja, wir leiten den Bibelunterricht,\u00a0wenn nicht gerade ein Wochenende in den Bergen dazwischenkommt.<\/p>\n
Die Vorstellung, \u00f6ffentlich zu beten, Zeugnis zu geben oder das Evangelium\u00a0zu\u00a0verk\u00fcndigen, macht uns unsicher und \u00e4ngstlich \u2013 deshalb bleiben\u00a0wir lieber still. Wir\u00a0haben keine Lust, bei der Obdachlosen-Mission mitzuhelfen, aus Angst, wir k\u00f6nnten\u00a0uns L\u00e4use oder Fl\u00f6he holen. Wir schlie\u00dfen\u00a0jeden Gedanken an das Missionsfeld aus,\u00a0weil wir Angst vor Schlangen\u00a0und Spinnen haben.<\/p>\n
Unser Geben ist oft eher ein Trinkgeld als ein Opfer. Wir geben, was wir ohnehin\u00a0nicht vermissen \u2013 im Gegensatz zu der Witwe, die alles gab. Unsere Gastfreundschaft\u00a0ist von dem Ma\u00df an finanziellem Aufwand, Unannehmlichkeit\u00a0und Unordnung bestimmt,\u00a0das auf unseren Haushalt zukommt \u2013 im Gegensatz zu dem Seelengewinner,\u00a0der sagte, dass jeder Teppich in seinem Haus Flecken hat von Betrunkenen, die sich\u00a0darauf erbrochen\u00a0haben. Unsere Erreichbarkeit f\u00fcr Menschen in Not h\u00f6rt dann auf,\u00a0wenn wir uns auf unser Lattoflex-Bett niederlassen \u2013 im Gegensatz zu dem \u00c4ltesten,\u00a0der bereit war, jederzeit aus dem Bett geholt zu werden, um jemand\u00a0geistlich und\u00a0materiell helfen zu k\u00f6nnen.<\/p>\n
Wenn der Ruf Christi uns trifft, fragen wir uns h\u00e4ufig: \u00bbWas springt dabei f\u00fcr mich\u00a0heraus?\u00ab oder: \u00bbWird es sich auszahlen?\u00ab Die Frage sollte vielmehr lauten: \u00bbIst das\u00a0ein Opfer, das uns wirklich etwas kostet?\u00ab Jemand\u00a0hat treffend gesagt: \u00bbIm geistlichen\u00a0Leben ist es besser, wenn Dinge uns etwas kosten, als wenn Dinge sich auszahlen.\u00ab<\/p>\n
Wenn wir daran denken, was unsere Erl\u00f6sung unseren Heiland gekostet hat, dann\u00a0ist es im Vergleich dazu nur eine armselige Vergeltung, wenn wir alle Zur\u00fcckhaltung\u00a0aufgeben und ihm aus freien St\u00fccken Opfer bringen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
