Gud utnevnte sin Sønn Jesus Kristus til et levende håp for nasjonene. Jesus Kristus er et levende håp for alle mennesker, som trodde, tro, og skal tro på Guds Sønn. 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
Velsignet være vår Herre Jesu Kristi Gud og Far, 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, Til en uforgjengelig arv, og ubesmittet, og det forsvinner ikke, reservert i himmelen for deg, Som holdes ved Guds kraft ved troen til frelse rede til å bli åpenbart i den siste tid (1 Peter 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 (Dette gjelder både hanner og hunner) and belongs to God again.
All people that are født på ny i Kristus are no longer sinners, but have become saints.
Believers have laid down their old life as sinner, ved deres kjøds død i Kristus, and are raised from the dead in newness of life (Åh. romerne 4:25; 6:4-11; 7:6).
I 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.
Sammen, the believers are the Church of Christ; de Kristi legeme På jorden.
The believers are clothed with Christ and are His reflection on earth
The believers are kledd med Kristus and are His reflection on earth. From their renewed sonship (både hanner og kvinner) 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 (Åh. romerne 8:29; 12:2; 15:13-19; Kolosserne 3:10; Efeserne 6:6; Hebreerne 10:36; 1 Peter 4:2-19; 1 John 2:17).
Akkurat som Jesus Kristus, Guds Sønn. 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 (Åh. John 4:34; 5:30; 6:38; 8:19; 10:30-38; 14:7; 2 Korinterne 4:4; Kolosserne 1:15; Hebreerne 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 (Åh. John 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.
Jesus var (og er) 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 år gammel, He was baptized (washed in the water) og fylt med Den Hellige Ånd.
The Holy Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness, hvor Han ble fristet av djevelen, the ruler of the world and the adversary of God, for forty days.
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.
Som Jesus talte Faderens ord, He became the voice of the living God on earth. Jesus preached and revealed the Kingdom of God and kalte folket til omvendelse. (Åh. Matthew 4:17; merke 1:15; Luke 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, ved å gjøre Faderens vilje. The Law was connected to a King and a Kingdom, i dette tilfellet, God and God’s Kingdom.
Jesus confirmed and established the will of God and His righteousness and the (moralsk) laws of God’s Kingdom on earth.
Jesus showed through His walk that God is not the God of sin, death and the dead, men av rettferdighet, Life and the living, the true God and the eternal King (Åh. Jeremia 10:10; Daniel 6:26; Matthew 22:32; merke 12:27; Luke 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 (gjort levende) many that believe and are born again in Him (Åh. John 14:27-31; romerne 1:16; 4:25; 5; 6; 8:10-17; Efeserne 1:7; Kolosserne 1:20; Åpenbaring 1:5-6).
Jesus Kristus, Guds Sønn og Menneskesønnen, took the guilt upon Him. The guilt, that was on the whole human race through the disobedience (synd) of the man Adam.
Jesus døde, so that everyone that believes in Him and accepts His sacrifice and be cleansed with His blood, bli reddet.
I Kristus, we have the redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sin and are justified. (Åh. romerne 5:1-19; Galaterbrevet 1:4; 1 Korinterne 6:11; 2 Korinterne 5:21; Efeserne 1:17; Kolosserne 1:13-14)
Ikke bli lurt: Verken hormaratorer, Heller ikke avgudsdyrkere, heller ikke utroskap, heller ikke effeminat, Heller ikke overgripere av seg selv med menneskeheten, Heller ikke tyver, heller ikke begjær, heller ikke beruset, heller ikke revilere, heller ikke utpressere, skal arve Guds rike. Og slikt var noen av dere: Men dere blir vasket, Men dere er helliget, men dere er rettferdiggjort i Herren Jesu navn, og av vår Guds Ånd (1 Korinterne 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 (Åh. Handlinger 20:28; romerne 8:23; 2 Korinterne 5:5; Efeserne 1:13-14).
Through the identification with Christ through the baptism in the water of separation, you are separated from the world (kjødets død) og forsonet med Gud (åndens oppstandelse fra de døde) and have peace with God. You are death to the world and alive unto God (Åh. Handlinger 26:18; romerne 5:1; 6:5-11; Efeserne 2:13; Filipperne 3:10-21; Kolosserne 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, gjennom sløret, that is to say His flesh (romerne 5:1-2; Hebreerne 10:19-20).
Gjennom gjenfødelse i Kristus, you are appointed unto a living sacrifice, hellig og velbehagelig for Gud, and a living hope for the people (Åh. romerne 12:1; 1 Peter 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, det levende Ordet, the living Water, the living Bread, the living Stone, og the living voice that still speaks and sounds in the hearts of the born again believers, who live in a world of deep darkness (Åh. John 4:10-11; 6:51; 7:38; 1 Peter 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, ved kjødets død og åndens oppstandelse fra de døde, a living hope for the people on earth, that testify of the blood and the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
For også Kristus har en gang lidd for synder, det rettferdige for de urettferdige, that He might bring us to God, blir drept i kjødet, men levendegjort av Ånden (1 Peter 3:18)
Gjennom den nye fødselen, 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, gå, 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. Så det, they also be given the opportunity to believe and be delivered from the power of devil, synd, og døden, and by faith and the new birth in Christ be saved from hell and reconciled with God and receive eternal life
Skam deg derfor ikke over vår Herres vitnesbyrd, heller ikke av meg hans fange: men vær delaktig i evangeliets lidelser etter Guds kraft; som har frelst oss, og kalte oss med et hellig kall, ikke i henhold til våre gjerninger, men etter Hans egen hensikt og nåde, som ble gitt oss i Kristus Jesus før verden begynte, Men er nå åpenbart ved tilsynekomsten av vår Frelser Jesus Kristus, Who hath abolished death, og har brakt liv og udødelighet frem i lyset gjennom evangeliet
2 Timothy 1:8-10
