"A megtestesülés célja" c. sorozatból Rev. G. Campbell Morgan, D. D., Pastor of Westminster Chapel, London, England. Az Újszövetség céljainak négyszeres kijelentése van: Célja van ugyanis · Az Atya kinyilatkoztatásának · A bűn megszüntetésének ; · Az ördög munkái elpusztításának ; · Valamint az a végső cél, hogy Krisztus újabb eljövetele által létre jöjjön Isten Királysága a világban. Krisztus összeütközésbe került mindazzal, ami (a földön) ellentétes volt Isten szándékaival az egyéni, társadalmi, nemzeti és fajokat érintő életben. Bizonyos értelemben, amikor ezt kimondtuk, az Ő eljövetelének teljes értelmét deklaráltuk. Az Atyáról szóló kinyilatkoztatása e célok felé irányult. Ennek a folyamatnak a része volt a bűn félre tevése, második eljövetele pedig az ördög összes munkájának teljes és végleges megdöntésére szolgál. Kimutatni az Atyát Senki sohasem látta Istent, az egyszülött Isten, aki az Atya kebelén van, ő jelentette őt ki. Jn. 1:1...
The " Influential " series - Part One From the first days of his earthly ministry, Jesus proclaimed the coming of the Kingdom of Heaven. More precisely, he announced that his Kingdom had arrived.

The better we understand His character and abilities, the better we represent his Kingdom in the visible world. The apostolic teaching says: By faith we understand that the universe* was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible. Heb 11:3 {ESV} *Lit. “we understand that the ages of the world (aions) were created by the word of God, so that out of the invisible came the visible.” Here is an important connection between aion and the Word of God The Holman translation is more specific: By faith we understand that the universe...
Keeping the apostolic line - the timeless advice Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God. Consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Do not be led away by diverse and strange teachings, for it is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace.. Heb 13: 7-9 By grace God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Eph 2:4-8
