God het sy Seun Jesus Christus aangestel as 'n lewende hoop vir die nasies. Jesus Christus is 'n lewende hoop vir al die mense, wat geglo het, glo, and shall believe in God’s Son. As the Father appointed His Son unto a living hope, so are the people that believe and identified themselves with Christ’s death and resurrection from the dead and are clothing with Him, unto a living hope in the world.
Christians are born again unto a living hope
Geseënd is die God en Vader van onse Here Jesus Christus, which according to His abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope (living hope) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, Na 'n onverganklike erfenis, en onbesmet, en wat nie verdwyn nie, in die hemel vir jou gereserveer, wat deur die krag van God deur geloof bewaar word tot redding, gereed om in die laaste tyd geopenbaar te word (1 Petrus 1:3-4)
God restored through His Son Jesus Christ, the peace between God and man that was broken, and the authority and life that man lost through Adam’s sin, to everyone that believes.
Everyone that believes in Jesus Christ and through faith repents, and be baptized in water and receives the baptism with the Holy Spirit becomes a son of the living God (dit geld vir beide mans en wyfies) and belongs to God again.
All people that are wedergebore in Christus are no longer sinners, but have become saints.
Believers have laid down their old life as sinner, deur die dood van hulle vlees in Christus, and are raised from the dead in newness of life (O. Romeine 4:25; 6:4-11; 7:6).
In Christus, they received the life of God anew and live in the New Covenant that is sealed with the blood of Jesus. They are born again unto a living hope.
Saam, the believers are the Church of Christ; die Liggaam van Christus op aarde.
The believers are clothed with Christ and are His reflection on earth
The believers are met Christus beklee and are His reflection on earth. From their renewed sonship (beide mans en wyfies) and restored position, they walk by faith in the authority of the Son Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit in obedience to the will of God (O. Romeine 8:29; 12:2; 15:13-19; Kolossense 3:10; Efesiërs 6:6; Hebreërs 10:36; 1 Petrus 4:2-19; 1 John 2:17).
Net soos Jesus Christus, die Seun van God. Jesus was the reflection of God and walked by faith in the authority of His Father in the power of the Holy Spirit in obedience to the will of God (O. John 4:34; 5:30; 6:38; 8:19; 10:30-38; 14:7; 2 Korintiërs 4:4; Kolossense 1:15; Hebreërs 1:3).
Jesus’s life belonged to God, whereby He yielded to the Father and walked in obedience to Him. Jesus spoke the words of His Father and did the things of His Father (O. John 8:38; 10:25-38; 14:10).
And so Jesus walked by faith in holiness and righteousness in the authority of His Father and did all in His Name.
Jesus was (en is) the living hope for the house of Israel
Jesus was the fulfillment of the Father’s promise and the living hope for the people of Israel. The Son of the promise was the living hope for all the sheep, including the sick and lost sheep of the house of Israël
Jesus was circumcised on the eighth day. Toe Jesus ongeveer 30 Jare van ouderdom, He was baptized (washed in the water) en gevul met die Heilige Gees.
The Holy Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness, waar Hy is deur die duiwel versoek, the ruler of the world and the adversary of God, Veertig dae.
After His victory, Jesus returned in the power of the Holy Spirit to Galilee, where He preached the gospel of the Kingdom of God and taught the truth of God in the synagogues.
Soos Jesus die woorde van die Vader gespreek het, He became the voice of the living God on earth. Jesus preached and revealed the Kingdom of God and het die volk tot bekering geroep. (O. Matteus 4:17; Merk 1:15; Lukas 4:14-16)
Jesus preached the Kingdom of God and established God’s Law
Jesus didn’t annul the Law of Moses, but He fulfilled the Law, deur die wil van die Vader te doen. The Law was connected to a King and a Kingdom, In hierdie geval, God and God’s Kingdom.
Jesus confirmed and established the will of God and His righteousness and the (morele) laws of God’s Kingdom on earth.
Jesus showed through His walk that God is not the God of sin, death and the dead, maar van geregtigheid, Life and the living, the true God and the eternal King (O. Jeremia 10:10; Daniel 6:26; Matteus 22:32; Merk 12:27; Lukas 20:38).
The justification through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ
Doing the will of the Father was Jesus’s first priority in life. In contrary to God’s first son Adam, who put his will above the will of the Father and lost his life through his disobedience to God and caused his seed to become corrupt, God’s Son Jesus put the Father’s will above His own will, whereby He also lost His life, but through His obedience to God and His blood, He justified and quickened (lewend gemaak) many that believe and are born again in Him (O. John 14:27-31; Romeine 1:16; 4:25; 5; 6; 8:10-17; Efesiërs 1:7; Kolossense 1:20; Openbaring 1:5-6).
Jesus Christus, Die Seun van God en die Seun van die mens, took the guilt upon Him. The guilt, that was on the whole human race through the disobedience (sonde) of the man Adam.
Jesus het gesterf, so that everyone that believes in Him and accepts His sacrifice and be cleansed with His blood, gered word.
In Christus, we have the redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sin and are justified. (O. Romeine 5:1-19; Galasiërs 1:4; 1 Korintiërs 6:11; 2 Korintiërs 5:21; Efesiërs 1:17; Kolossense 1:13-14)
Moenie mislei word nie: nóg hoereerders, ook nie afgodedienaars nie, ook nie egbrekers nie, ook nie vroulik nie, ook nie misbruikers van hulself met die mensdom nie, Ook nie diewe nie, ook nie hebsugtig nie, ook nie dronkaards nie, ook nie kwaadpraters nie, ook nie afpersers nie, sal die koninkryk van God beërwe. En dit was sommige van julle: maar julle is gewas, maar julle is geheilig, maar julle is geregverdig in die Naam van die Here Jesus, en deur die Gees van onse God (1 Korintiërs 6:10-11)
Jesus Christ brought deliverance from the devil and reconciliation with God
Through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and through His blood, you are reconciled with God and healed. You have been made righteous and are sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, Which is the down payment of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of His glory (O. Handelinge 20:28; Romeine 8:23; 2 Korintiërs 5:5; Efesiërs 1:13-14).
Through the identification with Christ through the baptism in the water of separation, you are separated from the world (dood van die vlees) en met God versoen (die opstanding van die gees uit die dood) and have peace with God. You are death to the world and alive unto God (O. Handelinge 26:18; Romeine 5:1; 6:5-11; Efesiërs 2:13; Filippense 3:10-21; Kolossense 1:20-23).
Through the blood of Jesus, you have boldness to enter into the holiest, by a new and living way, which He has consecrated for us, deur die sluier, that is to say His flesh (Romeine 5:1-2; Hebreërs 10:19-20).
Deur die wedergeboorte in Christus, you are appointed unto a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God, and a living hope for the people (O. Romeine 12:1; 1 Petrus 1:14).
Jesus is the living hope for all people
Jesus is still the living hope for people and the Savior of mankind. He is the living God, die lewende Woord, the living Water, the living Bread, the living Stone, en the living voice that still speaks and sounds in the hearts of the born again believers, who live in a world of deep darkness (O. John 4:10-11; 6:51; 7:38; 1 Petrus 2:4).
As Jesus was a living hope for the people through His birth on earth, and through His death and resurrection from the dead, is still a living hope for the people, so are the believers in Christ, deur die dood van die vlees en die opstanding van die gees uit die dood, a living hope for the people on earth, that testify of the blood and the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
Want Christus het ook eenmaal vir die sondes gely, the just for the unjust, dat Hy ons na God kan bring, in die vlees gedood word, but quickened by the Spirit (1 Petrus 3:18)
Deur die nuwe geboorte, believers are not appointed unto a death hope but unto a living hope for the people.
They bear this living hope in them through the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, Loop, as witnesses of Jesus Christ as sons of God in the new life on earth in righteousness, keeping the Law of the Spirit of life, bearing the fruit of the Spirit, and expecting an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled that fades not away, reserved in heaven.
Christians are witnesses of Jesus Christ and the hope that is in them
They are the true witnesses of Jesus Christ and the hope that is in them on earth. They are the light that shines in this dark world.
Every Christian that believes and through regeneration in Christ is made unto a living hope, possesses the truth and is expected to proclaim this truth in the power of the Holy Spirit to the people. Sodat, they also be given the opportunity to believe and be delivered from the power of devil, sonde, en die dood, and by faith and the new birth in Christ be saved from hell and reconciled with God and receive eternal life
Skaam jou dan nie vir die getuienis van onse Here nie, ook nie van my Sy gevangene nie: maar wees deelagtig aan die verdrukkinge van die evangelie volgens die krag van God; Wie het ons gered, en ons geroep met 'n heilige roeping, nie volgens ons werke nie, maar volgens Sy eie doel en genade, wat ons in Christus Jesus gegee is voordat die wêreld begin het, Maar word nou geopenbaar deur die verskyning van ons Verlosser, Jesus Christus, Who hath abolished death, en het lewe en onsterflikheid aan die lig gebring deur die evangelie
2 Timoteus 1:8-10
‘Wees die sout van die aarde’
