God created the heaven and the earth and all the host in six days and God rested on the seventh day of all His works. God called the things which were not as though they were. When God finished the creation, everything was good. Ναι, very good. Until the creation became affected by evil and the creation of man was no longer perfect. Επομένως, a recreation of man had to take place. That recreation of man took place on the eighth day, Η ημέρα της νέας δημιουργίας.
The perfect creation of man became affected by evil
Everything was good and perfect until Adam, ο γιος του Θεού, became disobedient to the commandment of God and sinned. Because of man’s rebellion (αμαρτία), the perfect creation (the crown of God’s creation) changed and became affected by evil. The death entered. Ως αποτέλεσμα, the spirit of man died and came under the authority of death and the flesh began to rule (Γένεση 3, Λουκ 3:38).
Because death entered man, καθένας, Ποιος θα γεννηθεί από τον σπόρο του ανθρώπου, would die.
Man was not equal to the image of El Elohim (Θεός Πατέρας, Jesus the Son and the Word, και το Άγιο Πνεύμα) πια. But man had become equal to the fallen archangel Lucifer, the devil and adversary of God.
Although fallen man had knowledge of good and evil, due to his disobedience, fallen man had the nature of the devil (fallen archangel Lucifer).
The final destination of fallen man would be the same as his (πεσμένος) πατέρας, Ο διάβολος, namely hell. (Διαβάστε επίσης: Τι λέει η Βίβλος για την ανυπακοή στον Θεό?).
Ωστόσο, God gave a promise of restoration to man, by telling the serpent that He would put enmity between him and the woman, and between his seed and her seed. And that this Seed would bruise his head.
That Seed came indeed: Ιησούς Χριστός, who bruised the devil’s head and took his authority. (Διαβάστε επίσης: Τι σημαίνει το κεφάλι του διαβόλου μελανιασμένο επειδή η φτέρνα του Ιησού ήταν μελανιασμένη?) .
Jesus had to die as a sinner to enter hell legally
To bruise the devil’s head, Jesus had to enter hell legally to conquer death and to take back all authority from the devil, θάνατος, και κόλαση. There was only one legitimate way to enter hell, και αυτό ήταν, to die as a sinner.
Ο Ιησούς ήταν χωρίς αμαρτία, but Jesus took the place of sinners and became the Substitute for the whole fallen human race.
Όταν σταυρώθηκε ο Ιησούς, the Father laid the sins and iniquities of the world upon Him, whereby Jesus was made sin. When Jesus died He entered hell. Jesus stayed in hell for three days (Διαβάστε επίσης: Τι έκανε ο Ιησούς στην κόλαση?).
Μετά από τρεις μέρες, Ο Ιησούς αναστήθηκε ως Νικητής από τους νεκρούς. Jesus had conquered the devil, θάνατος, και κόλαση. He had taken back the authority, τα κλειδιά, which the devil had stolen from Adam, legitimately.
All this happened on the eighth day, the day of the new creation.
Την όγδοη ημέρα; Η ημέρα της νέας δημιουργίας
When Jesus rose from the dead on the eighth day, the promise of God of the restoration of creation was fulfilled and the old creation formally ended. The eighth day was the day of the new creation, of which Jesus was the Firstborn.
Jesus came to the earth as the Firstborn of the new creation; born of the Spirit in the flesh. And Jesus rose from the dead as the Firstling of the new creation on the eighth day.
A new creation was created on the eighth day. And through Jesus’ death and resurrection from the dead, many new creations would follow, who through the circumcision in Christ had become a new creation; Ένας Υιός του Θεού (αυτό ισχύει τόσο για τα αρσενικά όσο και για τα θηλυκά). (Διαβάστε επίσης: Τι σημαίνει η περιτομή στον Ιησού Χριστό?).
What was disrupted in creation was restored (θεραπεύτηκε) μέσω του Χριστού. Therefore God could enter His rest on the eighth day.
Everyone has the ability to become a new creation
Adam was perfectly created until he rebelled against God and sinned and sin and death entered and reigned in him. Through his act of disobedience to God, Adam fell from his position and lost his dominion on earth to the devil and his relationship with God was broken. But Jesus restored it all through the cross, by His blood and His resurrection from the dead.
The whole of humanity is born of the seed of Adam and is born as a sinner and needs redemption. Jesus is the only Healer. He is the only Way to God and eternal life. (Διαβάστε επίσης: Υπάρχει μόνο ένας τρόπος για αιώνια ζωή?) .
Everyone has a choice to either remain the old creation (γέροντας) and live in a fallen state and walk after the will, Επιθυμίες, and desires of the flesh in disobedience to God in sin. Or to become a new creation (νέος άνθρωπος) Με πίστη και αναγέννηση στον Χριστό, and live from the new position in Christ and walk after the Spirit in obedience to God and His Word in His will.
The new creation is made complete in Christ
Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: μάλιστα, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we Him no more. Επομένως, αν κάποιος είναι στον Χριστό, Είναι ένα νέο πλάσμα: Τα παλιά πράγματα πεθαίνουν; βλέπω, Όλα τα πράγματα γίνονται νέα (2 Κορινθίους 5:16-17)
Ο Θεός έστειλε τον Υιό Του, to become the Firstling of the new creation. Since the whole creation is created by the Word. Ο Ιησούς είναι το παράδειγμά μας.
Ο Ιησούς μας έδειξε, how to walk as a son of God (αυτό ισχύει τόσο για τα αρσενικά όσο και για τα θηλυκά) στη γη. (Διαβάστε επίσης: Ολόκληρη η δημιουργία δημιουργείται στον Ιησού Χριστό).
This new creation, who is created in Christ, is a new creation of God, και μεταφέρεται από το σκοτάδι στο Βασίλειο του Ιησού Χριστού.
The new creation is restored (θεραπεύτηκε) in his position and reconciled with God. Therefore the new creation is perfect and made complete in Him (Εφεσίους 1, Κολοσσαείς 1; 2:10).
There is no other way to be reconciled with God. There is no other way to enter the Kingdom of God than by becoming the new creation.
Jesus told Nicodemus, ότι μπορούσε να δει και να εισέλθει στη Βασιλεία του Θεού μόνο αν αναγεννηθεί νερό και Πνεύμα (Γιάννης 3).
Ο Ιησούς συμφιλίωσε τον άνθρωπο με τον Θεό
Διότι εν Χριστώ Ιησού ούτε η περιτομή ωφελεί τίποτα, ούτε απεριτομία, αλλά ένα νέο πλάσμα. Και όσοι περπατούν σύμφωνα με αυτόν τον κανόνα, ειρήνη σε αυτούς, και έλεος, και επί του Ισραήλ του Θεού (Γαλάτες 6:15-16)
Αν αναγεννηθείς εν Χριστώ και έχεις γίνει νέο δημιούργημα, θα πρέπει επίσης να ζεις ως η νέα δημιουργία.
Θα αναζητήσετε εκείνα τα πράγματα που είναι πάνω και όχι στη γη.
Θα θρέψεις το πνεύμα σου και θα ανανεώσεις το μυαλό σου με τον λόγο του Θεού (διαβάζοντας και μελετώντας τη Βίβλο) και να προσεύχεσαι και να υποτάσσεσαι στον Χριστό; η λέξη.
Εάν δεν το κάνετε αυτό, και συνεχίζεις να τρέφεις τη σάρκα σου με τα πράγματα αυτού του κόσμου, Η σάρκα σας θα συνεχίσει να βασιλεύει στη ζωή σας και να σας υπαγορεύει τι να κάνετε.
Αντί να αναβάλλουμε τα έργα της σάρκας με τη δύναμη του Αγίου Πνεύματος, θα συνεχίσετε να περπατάτε με ανυπακοή στον Θεό και να επιμείνετε στην αμαρτία. (Διαβάστε επίσης: Αφήστε την αμαρτία να μην βασιλεύει πλέον ως βασιλιάς στη ζωή σας!)
Αυτό που ταΐζετε θα γίνει δυνατό μέσα σας. Αλλά πρέπει να κάνετε μια επιλογή, whether to feed the spirit and bear the fruit of the Spirit or to feed the flesh and bear the fruit of death, που είναι αμαρτία.
The Spirit and the flesh can’t reign together. Because the Spirit always strives against the flesh. One has to die.
