Allah menunjuk Putra-Nya Yesus Kristus untuk menjadi pengharapan yang hidup bagi bangsa-bangsa. Yesus Kristus adalah harapan hidup bagi semua orang, yang percaya, meyakini, dan akan percaya kepada Anak Allah. 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
Terpujilah Allah dan Bapa Tuhan kita Yesus Kristus, 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, Untuk warisan yang tidak fana, dan tidak tercemar, dan itu tidak memudar, Dicadangkan di Surga untuk Anda, Yang dipelihara oleh kuasa Allah melalui iman menuju keselamatan siap untuk dinyatakan di akhir zaman (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 (ini berlaku untuk pria dan wanita) and belongs to God again.
All people that are dilahirkan kembali di dalam Kristus are no longer sinners, but have become saints.
Believers have laid down their old life as sinner, melalui kematian daging mereka di dalam Kristus, and are raised from the dead in newness of life (A.O. Roma 4:25; 6:4-11; 7:6).
Di dalam Kristus, 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.
Bersama, the believers are the Church of Christ; itu Tubuh Kristus di dunia.
The believers are clothed with Christ and are His reflection on earth
The believers are clothed with Christ and are His reflection on earth. From their renewed sonship (baik pria maupun wanita) 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 (A.O. Roma 8:29; 12:2; 15:13-19; Kolose 3:10; Efesus 6:6; Ibrani 10:36; 1 Petrus 4:2-19; 1 Yohanes 2:17).
Just like Jesus Christ, Putra Tuhan. 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 (A.O. Yohanes 4:34; 5:30; 6:38; 8:19; 10:30-38; 14:7; 2 Korintus 4:4; Kolose 1:15; Ibrani 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 (A.O. Yohanes 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.
Yesus adalah (dan adalah) 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. When Jesus was approximately 30 years of age, He was baptized (washed in the water) and filled with the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness, Di mana Dia tergoda oleh iblis, the ruler of the world and the adversary of God, selama empat puluh hari.
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.
Saat Yesus mengucapkan kata-kata Bapa, He became the voice of the living God on earth. Jesus preached and revealed the Kingdom of God and menyerukan orang-orang untuk bertobat. (A.O. Matius 4:17; Tanda 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, dengan melakukan kehendak Bapa. The Law was connected to a King and a Kingdom, pada kasus ini, God and God’s Kingdom.
Jesus confirmed and established the will of God and His righteousness and the (moral) laws of God’s Kingdom on earth.
Jesus showed through His walk that God is not the God of sin, death and the dead, but of righteousness, Life and the living, the true God and the eternal King (A.O. Yeremia 10:10; Daniel 6:26; Matius 22:32; Tanda 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 (dibuat hidup) many that believe and are born again in Him (A.O. Yohanes 14:27-31; Roma 1:16; 4:25; 5; 6; 8:10-17; Efesus 1:7; Kolose 1:20; Wahyu 1:5-6).
Yesus Kristus, the Son of God and the Son of man, took the guilt upon Him. The guilt, that was on the whole human race through the disobedience (dosa) of the man Adam.
Yesus mati, so that everyone that believes in Him and accepts His sacrifice and be cleansed with His blood, diselamatkan.
Di dalam Kristus, we have the redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sin and are justified. (A.O. Roma 5:1-19; Galatia 1:4; 1 Korintus 6:11; 2 Korintus 5:21; Efesus 1:17; Kolose 1:13-14)
Jangan tertipu: tidak juga pezina, maupun orang-orang musyrik, maupun pezina, juga tidak banci, atau menyiksa diri mereka sendiri dengan umat manusia, Juga bukan pencuri, juga tidak tamak, atau pemabuk, atau pencela, maupun pemeras, akan mewarisi Kerajaan Allah. Dan seperti apa dari Anda: tapi kamu dicuci, tetapi kamu disucikan, tetapi kamu dibenarkan dalam Nama Tuhan Yesus, dan oleh Roh Allah kita (1 Korintus 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 (A.O. Tindakan 20:28; Romeinen 8:23; 2 Korintus 5:5; Efesus 1:13-14).
Through the identification with Christ through the baptism in the water of separation, you are separated from the world (death of the flesh) dan berdamai dengan Tuhan (Kebangkitan Roh dari Orang Mati) and have peace with God. You are death to the world and alive unto God (A.O. Tindakan 26:18; Roma 5:1; 6:5-11; Efesus 2:13; Filipi 3:10-21; Kolose 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, melalui tabir, that is to say His flesh (Roma 5:1-2; Ibrani 10:19-20).
Melalui kelahiran kembali di dalam Kristus, you are appointed unto a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God, and a living hope for the people (A.O. Roma 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, Firman yang hidup, the living Water, the living Bread, the living Stone, Dan the living voice that still speaks and sounds in the hearts of the born again believers, who live in a world of deep darkness (A.O. Yohanes 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, melalui kematian daging dan kebangkitan roh dari kematian, a living hope for the people on earth, that testify of the blood and the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
Sebab Kristus juga pernah menderita karena dosa, yang adil bagi yang tidak adil, agar Dia dapat membawa kita kepada Tuhan, dihukum mati secara daging, tetapi dihidupkan oleh Roh (1 Petrus 3:18)
Melalui kelahiran baru, 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, sedang berjalan, 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. Sehingga, they also be given the opportunity to believe and be delivered from the power of devil, dosa, dan kematian, and by faith and the new birth in Christ be saved from hell and reconciled with God and receive eternal life
Karena itu janganlah kamu malu dengan kesaksian Tuhan kita, juga bukan aku yang menjadi tawanannya: tetapi jadilah kamu bagian dalam penderitaan Injil menurut kuasa Allah; Siapa yang telah menyelamatkan kita, dan memanggil kami dengan panggilan suci, bukan menurut perbuatan kita, tetapi menurut tujuan dan kasih karunia-Nya sendiri, yang diberikan kepada kita di dalam Kristus Yesus sebelum dunia dijadikan, Namun kini diwujudkan dengan menampakkan diri Juruselamat kita Yesus Kristus, Who hath abolished death, dan telah membawa kehidupan dan kebakaan melalui Injil
2 Timotius 1:8-10
'Jadilah garam dunia’
