The Power Of The Cross 十字架的能力
Romans 1:16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.
罗马书 1:16 我不以福音为耻;这福音本是神的大能,要救一切相信的,先是犹太人,后是希腊人。
Dear friend, do you know that the message of the cross is the gospel you and I heard today? It is all about the gift of salvation that redeems us from the darkness into light. 2018 years ago, the Son of God became Son of man, He came down from the heaven to earth, walked through the journey of life for 33 years on this earth just like you and me, solely because He loves you and sympathize with our weaknesses, He has been tempted in every way just as we are-yet was without sin. That is JESUS CHRIST!
He died for our sins and was raised to life for our justification. He took up our infirmities and carried our sorrow so that today you and I can live a life of worry-free and stress-free, knowing that the power of the cross has set us free; He was pierced for our transgression so that we are now free from the punishment and there is now no more condemnation in Christ Jesus; He was crushed for our iniquities to take away all our sins and by the power of the cross, our sins and lawless deeds God will remember no more; He was been punished so that today you and I can live a life of peace for we no longer need to be punished; By His wounds, we are healed! Therefore, by the power of the cross, we are now healthy, wealthy, joyful, peaceful, and can live a life of abundance! In Christ Jesus, we are highly favored, greatly blessed and deeply loved!
亲爱的朋友,你知道十字架的道理就是今日你和我所听见的福音吗?一切都是关乎救恩这礼物,就是救赎我们,把我们从黑暗的权势迁到光明中。2018年前,神的儿子成为人的儿子,祂从天堂下到这世界,在这世上如同你和我一样,活了33年,单单因为祂爱你,体恤你的一切软弱,祂也曾经凡事受试探,如同你和我,只是祂没有罪。祂就是耶稣基督!
祂为我们的罪而死,也为了使我们称义而复活。祂诚然担当我们的忧患和痛苦,好叫今天你和我能过着无忧无虑的生活,因为十字架的能力已释放了我们;祂为我们的罪受刑罚,好叫我们能从刑罚中得自由且在基督耶稣里不被定罪;祂为我们的罪孽压伤为了除去我们的罪,并且因着十字架的能力,神不再纪念我们的罪愆和过犯;祂受责罚好叫今天你和我能活在平安里,因为我们不用再害怕被审了;因着祂的鞭伤,我们得医治!因此,藉着十字架的能力,我们现在是健康的、富足的、喜乐的、平安的,且能过着丰盛的生命!在基督耶稣里,我们是满有恩惠,大受祝福,深深被爱的!
