Hvert år, Good Friday is remembered by Christians. But what is the meaning of Good Friday? Why is Good Friday such an important day to Christians and humanity?
Hva skjedde på langfredag?
On Good Friday, we remember the Jesu Kristi korsfestelse. Jesus died for humanity and took all the sins, misgjerninger, Sykdom, and diseases upon Him. He carried all sins and iniquities of the world and took the penalty for sin, som er døden, på seg selv.
Jesus was the Lamb of God and became the Substitute for fallen man. Slik at alle, who believes in Him would be redeemed by His blood from sin and death, and be reunited with the Father.
All the redeemed of the Lord are saved and receive eternal life.
When you believe in Christ, du er redeemed from your sinful state and nature.
The blood of Christ redeemed you from the power of the devil and brought you into the Kingdom of God and made you righteous. Du er ikke lenger en synder but you have become a saint.
When you become a saint, you shall live as a saint and walk in holiness and righteousness. Just like Jesus walked in holiness and righteousness, because He has become your new Owner.
Before you accepted Jesus Christ, som din Frelser og Herre, you walked according to the will of the devil (your previous owner).
Men nå, you ought to walk according to the will of Jesus (your new Owner). You can find His will in His Word. The Word is Jesus, and through His Word, He will reveal and share His will with you.
Piskeposten
And He took bread, og takket, og bremse den, and gave unto them, ordtak, This is My body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. Likewise also the cup after supper, ordtak, This cup is the new testament in My blood, which is shed for you (Luke 22:19-20)
Jesus took the bread, which symbolizes His body in the visible world. Every time you take the bread and eat the bread, you remember His body, which was given for you. You remember the stripes, He took upon Himself, on the whipping post, on Good Friday. You remember that by His stripes you were healed. Ja, all sickness and disease He took upon Him on the whipping post.
Men han ble såret for våre overtredelser, Han ble knust for våre misgjerninger: straffen for vår fred var på ham; og med hans sår er vi helbredet (Jesaja 53:5)
By whose stripes you were healed (1 Peter 2:24)
The finished work at Calvary
Etter piskeposten, Jesus continued His way to Calvary; the place, where He would die for all humanity. Ja, He would be sacrificed for all humanity.
On Good Friday, Jesus was pierced at the cross and carried all the iniquities and sins of mankind. Jesus tok alle synder, misgjerninger, and eventually death upon Himself. Slik at alle, who believes in Him would receive redemption, evig liv, a life reunited with the Father. Alle sammen, who is redeemed by the blood of Jesus, will not face death.
Blodet hans (His life) was shed at the cross. The wine you take symbolizes His blood (His life) that washed away all your sins and iniquities and redeemed you from sin nature.
Jesus had one purpose, and that was to do the hans Fars vilje. Han visste, how much God loves people.
Ja, Jesus knew how much God loves du, and because He saw that great love of His Father for you, He gave His life for you. So that you will be reunited with your Creator, your Father in Heaven.
Don’t ever forget His great sacrifice. Never forget the cross and the blood of Jesus Christ. But remember daily, what He has done for you and what He has given you.
Hver dag, you should take up your cross and follow Jesus, which means that you act and live according to His will, and not your own will anymore. Hvis du vandrer i hans vilje, you will please Him, and exalt Him in everything you do.
