To 'Jews' Too. . . 'Good News'
To 'Jews' Too. . . 'Good News'
To
the 'Jews'
pardoned;
excused,
though your 'forefathers'
stubbornly
refused
to acknowledge
Jesus
as
'God's Son'...
"You killed the Chief Agent of life.
But God
raised him up
from the dead".
Acts 3:15.
"God exalted this one
as
Chief Agent
and Savior
to his right hand,
to give repentance
to Israel
and forgiveness of sins."
Acts 5:31.
To you.
And to 'every' man:
""To him all the prophets bear witness,
that everyone putting faith in him
receives forgiveness of sins
through his name.”"
Acts 10:43.
***
"Because of his anguish,
he will see and be satisfied.
By means of his knowledge
the righteous one, my servant,
Will bring a righteous standing
to many people,
And their errors
he will bear."
Isa. 53:11.
"He himself bore our sins in his own body on the stake,
so that we might die to sins
and
live to righteousness.
And
“by his wounds you were healed.”"
1 Pet. 2:24.
Yes:
"he was pierced for our transgression;
He was crushed for our errors.
He bore the punishment for our peace,
And because of his wounds
we were healed."
Isa. 53:5.
***
"Although he was a son,
he learned obedience
from the things
he suffered."
Heb. 5:8.
***
"For this very reason,
God exalted him to a superior position
and kindly gave him the name that is above every other name,
so that in the name of Jesus every knee should bend—
of those in heaven
and those on earth
and those under the ground—
and every tongue should openly acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord
to the glory of God the Father."
Phil. 2:9-11.
***
So
acting in our behalf--
those desirous of a 'righteous' change,
is the 'Chief Agent'
active.
Soon to execute a glorious
'new'...
"And the One seated on the throne said:
“Look! I am making all things new.”
Also he says:
“Write, for these words are faithful and true.”"
Rev. 21:5.
Not of this
'system of things
composed of
Satan's lies and untruths
imbued.
Not
inclined
Christ
to hold together
or
'rearrange'
a way or ruling
never designed for humans to pursue:
So admonished as to what to do:
"stop being molded by this system of things,
but be transformed by making your mind over,
so that you may prove to yourselves
the good and acceptable and perfect will of God."
Rom. 12:2.
Freed:
Faithful humans
from sins deadly effects
and led
them to everlasting life
is what this
'Chief Agent'
was/is
'bread'
to a 'few'...
***
“Go in through the narrow gate,
because broad is the gate and spacious is the road
leading off into destruction,
and many are going in through it;
whereas narrow is the gate
and cramped the road leading off into life,
and few are finding it."
Matt. 7:13, 14.
