Божья работа искупления

Ибо Бог так возлюбил мир, что Он отдал Своего Единородного Сына, that whosoever believes in Him, should not perish, но иметь жизнь вечную. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved (Джон 3:16,17)

Jesus served His whole life; He served His Father and people, подчиняясь the commandments of His Father, doing good, и healing all, that were oppressed by the devil (Действия 10:38).

Jesus represented His Father; He was a reflection of His Father.

Иисус сказал, that if a person had seen Him, he had also seen the Father (Джон 14:9). And in John 14:6-7, He said:

Я путь, правда, и жизнь: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. If ye had known Me, ye should have known My Father also: and from henceforth ye know Him, and have seen Him.

Jesus is the only Way, there is no other! Давайте, therefore look at God’s perfect work of redemption, через Иисуса Христа.

Jesus went to the garden of Gethsemane

The work of redemption began in the garden of Gethsemane, when Jesus’ soul was sorrowful. Jesus prayed to the Father and said: “Отец, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not My will, but Thine, be done”.

Jesus knew the time had come that He would be handed over into the hands of sinners, and die for all sinners.

During his prayer, an angel appeared unto Him from heaven, to strengthen Him. And being in an agony He prayed more earnestly: and His sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground (Люк 22:42-44).

Jesus conquered this deadly fear inside of HIm. He had to fight against His soul. Jesus conquered His soul (Читайте также: ‘Распятие души').

Now Jesus was ready to continue the mission of His Father, and go to the whipping post and the cross.

Jesus went to the whipping post

After His prayer, and when Jesus returned to His disciples, He was betrayed by one of His disciples, and was taken captive. After many interrogations, He was scourged. When Jesus was scourged at the whipping post, He bore our sickness and disease.

Воистину, Он понес наши горести, и нес наши печали: но мы почитали Его пораженным, пораженный Богом, and afflicted. Но Он был изранен за наши преступления, Он был изранен за наши беззакония: наказание мира нашего было на Нем; и ранами Его мы исцелились (Исайя 53:4,5)

Который Сам вознес наши грехи Своим телом на древо, что мы, быть мертвым для грехов, должен жить в праведности:by Whose stripes ye were healed (1 Питер 2:24)

The crown of thorns

The crown of thorns, that the soldiers put on Jesus’ head could be a symbol of the oppression of man, but that’s my interpretation. Because in the Old Testament when they spoke of thorns, they referred to people:

But if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you; then it shall come to pass, that those which ye let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes and thorns in your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell (Числа 33:55)

Know for a certainty that the Lord your God will no more drive out any of these nations from before you; but the shall be snares and trapes unto you, and scourges in your sides, and thorns in your eyes, until ye perish from off this good land which the Lord your God hath given you (Джошуа 23:13)

But the sons of Belial shall be all of them as thorns thrust away, because they cannot be taken with hands (2 Самуэль 23:6)

The Crucifixion of Jesus Christ

Затем настал момент, that Jesus was chosen by the people, instead of Barabbas (a murderer), to be crucified. The devil thought that he was smart, he thought that by crucifying Jesus, he was getting rid of Jesus, and he could continue to build his kingdom on this earth. Другими словами, he thought: good riddance! (Читайте также: ‘Jesus or Barabbas, who do you choose?')

But the devil was wrong. Because this was all part of God’s work of redemption. Jesus took all the sins, мира, upon Him. Иисус, Who was without sin, was made sin and was sacrificed, in order to reconcile man back to God, однажды и на всегда. From the sixth till the ninth hour, there was darkness over all the land.

Then at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, говоря: “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?”

These words mean: “My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?”

Jesus had always been joint together with His Father; they were One. Jesus was never separated from Him, until sin came upon Him.

God is holy and can never have fellowship with sin, therefore Jesus was separated from His Father. Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.

When Jesus died, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom (Отметка 15:33-39).

Который Сам вознес наши грехи Своим телом на древо, что мы, быть мертвым для грехов, должен жить в праведности: by whose stripes you were healed (1 Питер 2:24)

Jesus took our punishment upon Himself

We should have been punished, because we are the sinners and not Jesus. We should have been scourged in hell. Но из-за the great love and mercy of God, Jesus took the punishment, which was meant for us, на себя.

Through the blood of Jesus and regeneration in Him, we are reconciled with God and live in unity with God in Christ Jesus. Through the baptism with water and the Holy Ghost, we have crucified our sinful nature and received God’s nature inside of us.

When you receive His nature inside of you, the process of sanctification will start. Вы должны обнови свой разум со Словом Божьим. And instead of walking after the flesh (after your senses, разум, мысли, чувства, эмоции, воля, и т. д.), you shall walk after the Spirit according to the Word in the will of God.

The Holy Spirit is your Comforter and your Teacher. Together with Him, you shall be able to serve God, Иисус Христос, and men. Точно так же, как Иисус.

Jesus took the keys of hell and death

After Jesus died, He legally entered Hades. Jesus entered Hades, because Jesus was made sin; He had taken all sin and iniquity upon Himself. Jesus was in Hades for three days and preached. Через три дня, Jesus took the keys дьявола, смерть, and Hades legally back.
