Kazi ya Mungu ya ukombozi

Kwa maana jinsi hii Mungu aliupenda ulimwengu, kwamba alimtoa Mwanawe pekee, that whosoever believes in Him, should not perish, bali awe na uzima wa milele. Kwa maana Mungu hakumtuma Mwanawe ulimwenguni kulaani ulimwengu; lakini kwamba ulimwengu kupitia yeye unaweza kuokolewa (Yohana 3:16,17)

Jesus served His whole life; He served His Father and people, kwa kutii the commandments of His Father, kufanya mema, na healing all, that were oppressed by the devil (Matendo 10:38).

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

Yesu alisema, that if a person had seen Him, pia alikuwa amemwona Baba (Yohana 14:9). And in John 14:6-7, Alisema:

Mimi ndimi njia, ukweli, na maisha: mtu haji kwa Baba, but by me. Ikiwa ulinijua, Unapaswa kumjua baba yangu pia: na tangu tangu mnamjua, na nimemwona.

Jesus is the only Way, hakuna mwingine! Tu, therefore look at God’s perfect work of redemption, Kwa njia ya Yesu Kristo.

Jesus went to the garden of Gethsemane

The work of redemption began in bustani ya Gethsemane, when Jesus’ soul was sorrowful. Yesu aliomba kwa Baba na kusema: “Baba, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: Walakini sio mapenzi yangu, Lakini yako, ufanyike”.

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 (Luka 22:42-44).

Jesus conquered this deadly fear inside of HIm. He had to fight against His soul. Jesus conquered His soul (Soma pia: ‘Kusulubishwa kwa roho‘).

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.

Hakika amebeba huzuni zetu, na kubeba huzuni zetu: Walakini tulimthamini, Smitted ya Mungu, na kuteswa. Lakini alijeruhiwa kwa makosa yetu, Aliumizwa kwa uovu wetu: Ushuru wa amani yetu ulikuwa juu yake; Na kwa kupigwa kwake tumepona (Isaya 53:4,5)

Ambaye mwenyewe mwenyewe alitoa dhambi zetu katika mwili wake mwenyewe juu ya mti, kwamba sisi, kuwa amekufa kwa dhambi, inapaswa kuishi kwa haki:Ambaye kwa kupigwa kwake mliponywa (1 Peter 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:

Lakini ikiwa hamtaki kuwafukuza wenyeji wa nchi mbele yenu; basi itakuwa, ya kwamba hao mtakaowaacha watakuwa choko machoni penu na miiba ubavuni mwenu, nao watawasumbua katika nchi mtakaayo (Nambari 33:55)

Ujue kwa hakika kwamba Bwana Mungu wako hatatoa tena yoyote ya mataifa haya kabla yako; bali itakuwa mitego na mitego kwenu, na ugomvi katika pande zako, Na miiba machoni pako, mpaka upotee kutoka nje ya nchi hii nzuri ambayo Bwana Mungu wako amekupa (Yoshua 23:13)

Lakini watu wasiofaa watakuwa wote kama miiba iliyotupwa, kwa sababu haziwezi kuchukuliwa kwa mikono (2 Samweli 23:6)

The Crucifixion of Jesus Christ

Kisha ikafika wakati, that Jesus was chosen by the people, instead of Barabbas (muuaji), 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. Kwa maneno mengine, he thought: good riddance! (Soma pia: ‘Yesu au Baraba, unamchagua nani?‘)

Lakini shetani alikosea. Because this was all part of God’s work of redemption. Yesu alichukua dhambi zote, ya ulimwengu, juu Yake. Yesu, Ambaye hakuwa na dhambi, was made sin and was sacrificed, in order to reconcile man back to God, mara moja na kwa wote. 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, akisema: “Eloi, Eloi, Lama Sabachthani?”

These words mean: “Mungu wangu, Mungu wangu, Kwa nini umeniacha?”

Jesus had always been joint together with His Father; Walikuwa mmoja. 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. Yesu akalia kwa sauti kuu, akakata roho.

Yesu alipokufa, pazia la Hekalu likapasuka vipande viwili toka juu mpaka chini (Weka alama 15:33-39).

Ambaye mwenyewe mwenyewe alitoa dhambi zetu katika mwili wake mwenyewe juu ya mti, kwamba sisi, kuwa amekufa kwa dhambi, inapaswa kuishi kwa haki: by whose stripes you were healed (1 Peter 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. But because of the great love and mercy of God, Jesus took the punishment, which was meant for us, juu Yake.

Through the blood of Jesus and regeneration in Him, we are reconciled with God and live in unity with God in Christ Jesus. Kwa njia ya baptism with water na Roho Mtakatifu, 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. Wewe fanya upya akili yako pamoja na Neno la Mungu. And instead of walking after the flesh (after your senses, akili, mawazo, hisia, hisia, mapenzi, na kadhalika.), 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, Yesu Kristo, and men. Kama ilivyo kwa Yesu.

Jesus took the keys of hell and death

After Jesus died, He legally entered Hades. Yesu aliingia kuzimu, because Jesus was made sin; He had taken all sin and iniquity upon Himself. Jesus was in Hades for three days and preached. Baada ya siku tatu, Yesu alichukua funguo ya shetani, kifo, and Hades legally back.
