Stolthet og Gud

from Tapas for troen · host Norea Mediemisjon

"Men større er den nåde han gir; derfor heter det: Gud står de stolte imot, men de ydmyke gir han nåde." (Jak. 4, 6) Skal vi ikke være stolte av oss selv og det vi får til? Verset er en fri gjengivelse av Ord. 3, 34 som bruker ordet "spott". Stolthet og spott henger nøye sammen. Stolthet er noe Gud faktisk hater (Ord. 6. 16-17). En oversettelse sier at det stolte blikket er "ånden som gjør at man overvurderer seg selv og undervurderer andre". Bibelordboka sier det samme: Stolthet er å opphøye seg over sine medmennesker og foretrekke å gi seg selv ære. Bak stolthet er der altså en ånd som spotter og ikke vil gi Gud ære. Men vi er alle kalt til å gi Gud ære (1. Krøn. 16, 28). Det er omsorg når Gud reagerer så sterkt på stolthet, for Han vet at det fører til fall og undergang (Ord. 16, 18; 18, 12). Det ønsker Han å beskytte mot, og beskyttelsen er ydmykhet og nåde.  Det er forskjell på takknemlighet og stolthet. I stedet for å være stolte av oss selv, kan vi være glade og takknemlige! Det gir Gud ære (Kol. 3, 16-17)!  I stedet for å frykte å være ydmyk, skulle vi heller frykte å være stolt. La oss ta med ordene om at de ydmyke gir Gud nåde, for det er vel det vi egentlig ønsker...

This Impact Studios production is a collaboration with the Governor family, UTS Faculty of Law and Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research.The Last Outlaws teamKatherine Biber - UTS Law Professor and Chief InvestigatorAunty Loretta Parsley - Great-granddaughter of Jimmy Governor and the Governor Family Historian Leroy Parsons - Governor descendant, Narrator and Co-WriterKaitlyn Sawrey - Host, Writer and Senior ProducerFrank Lopez - Writer, Managing Next Generation Energy Systems Cambridge University Background Stakeholders working with energy systems have to make complex decisions formulated from risk-based assessments about the future. The move towards more renewables in our energy systems complicates matters even further, requiring the development of an integrated power grid and continuous and steady transformation of the UK power system. Network flows must be managed reliably under uncertain demands, uncertain supply, emerging network technologies and possible failures and, further, prices in related markets can be highly volatile. Mathematicians working with engineers and economists, can make significant contributions to address such issues, by helping to develop fit-for-purpose models for next generation energy systems. These interdisciplinary approaches are looking to address a range of associated problems, including modelling, prediction, simulation, control, market and mechanism design and optimisation.
