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. はい, very good. Until the creation became affected by evil and the creation of man was no longer perfect. したがって, a recreation of man had to take place. That recreation of man took place on the eighth day, 新しい創造の日.
The perfect creation of man became affected by evil
Everything was good and perfect until Adam, 神の子, became disobedient to the commandment of God and sinned. Because of man’s rebellion (罪), the perfect creation (the crown of God’s creation) changed and became affected by evil. The death entered. その結果, the spirit of man died and came under the authority of death and the flesh began to rule (創世記 3, ルーク 3:38).
Because death entered man, みんな, 人間の種から誰が生まれるだろうか, would die.
Man was not equal to the image of El Elohim (父なる神, Jesus the Son and the Word, そして聖霊) もう. 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 (落ちた) 父親, 悪魔, namely hell. (こちらもお読みください: 聖書は神への不従順について何と言っていますか?).
しかし, 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: イエス・キリスト, who bruised the devil’s head and took his authority. (こちらもお読みください: イエスのかかとが傷ついたから悪魔の頭が傷ついたとはどういう意味ですか??) .
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, 死, そして地獄. There was only one legitimate way to enter hell, そしてそれは, to die as a sinner.
イエスには罪がなかった, but Jesus took the place of sinners and became the Substitute for the whole fallen human race.
イエスが十字架につけられたとき, 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 (こちらもお読みください: イエスは地獄で何をしましたか?).
3日後, イエスは死から勝利者としてよみがえった. Jesus had conquered the devil, 死, そして地獄. He had taken back the authority, キー, which the devil had stolen from Adam, legitimately.
All this happened on the eighth day, the day of the new creation.
8日目; 新しい創造の日
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; 神の子 (これは男性と女性の両方に当てはまります). (こちらもお読みください: イエス・キリストの割礼は何を意味しますか?).
What was disrupted in creation was restored (治癒) キリストを通して. 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. (こちらもお読みください: 永遠の命への道は一つしかないのか?) .
Everyone has a choice to either remain the old creation (老人) and live in a fallen state and walk after the will, 欲望, and desires of the flesh in disobedience to God in sin. Or to become a new creation (新しい男) キリストの信仰と再生によって, 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: はい, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we Him no more. したがって、もし誰かがキリストの中にいるなら, 彼は新しい生き物です: 古いものは亡くなりました; 見よ, すべてが新しいものになります (2 コリント人への手紙 5:16-17)
神は御子を遣わされました, to become the Firstling of the new creation. Since the whole creation is created by the Word. イエスは私たちの模範です.
イエスは私たちに示してくださいました, how to walk as a son of God (これは男性と女性の両方に当てはまります) 地球上で. (こちらもお読みください: 被造物全体はイエス・キリストにおいて創造される).
This new creation, 誰がキリストにあって創造されたのか, is a new creation of God, 暗闇からイエス・キリストの王国に移されます.
The new creation is restored (治癒) in his position and reconciled with God. Therefore the new creation is perfect and made complete in Him (エペソ人への手紙 1, コロサイ人への手紙 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, 彼は生まれ変わることによってのみ神の王国を見て入ることができると 水 そして 精神 (ジョン 3).
イエスは人間を神と和解させた
キリスト・イエスには、割礼も何も活用していないからです, また、circumcisionもありません, しかし、新しい生き物. そして、このルールに従って歩くのと同じくらい, 彼らに平和があります, そして慈悲, そして神のイスラエルに (ガラテヤ人への手紙 6:15-16)
もしあなたがキリストにあって新しく生まれ、新しく創造されたものになったなら, あなたも新たな創造物として生きるべきです.
あなたは地上ではなく上にあるものを求めなければなりません.
あなたは神の言葉で霊を養い、心を新たにしなければならない (聖書を読んで研究することによって) そして祈り、キリストに服従します; 言葉.
これをしないと, そしてあなたはこの世のものを自分の肉体に与え続けます, あなたの肉体はあなたの人生を支配し続け、あなたに何をすべきかを指示するでしょう.
聖霊の力によって肉の業を延期するのではなく, あなたは神に不従順を歩み続け、罪を犯し続けることになる. (こちらもお読みください: 罪があなたの人生でもはや王として君臨しないようにしましょう!)
あなたが食べさせたものはあなたの中で強くなるでしょう. しかし、あなたは選択をしなければなりません, whether to feed the spirit and bear the fruit of the Spirit or to feed the flesh and bear the fruit of death, これは罪です.
The Spirit and the flesh can’t reign together. Because the Spirit always strives against the flesh. One has to die.
