V Kolosanom 1:15-17, Paul wrote that Jesus is the image of the invisible God, prvorodený každého stvorenia; Lebo Ním boli všetky veci stvorené, ktorí sú v nebi, a ktoré sú na zemi, viditeľné a neviditeľné, či to budú tróny, alebo panstvá, alebo kniežatstvá, or power: všetky veci stvoril Ním, a pre Neho,: A On je pred všetkými vecami, and by Him all things consist of every creature. What did Paul mean that Jesus is the image of the invisible God, prvorodený každého stvorenia?
Jesus is the image of the invisible God
Kto je obrazom neviditeľného Boha, prvorodený každého stvorenia: Lebo Ním boli všetky veci stvorené, ktorí sú v nebi, a ktoré sú na zemi, viditeľné a neviditeľné, či to budú tróny, alebo panstvá, alebo kniežatstvá, alebo právomoci: všetky veci stvoril Ním, a pre Neho: A On je pred všetkými vecami, a Ním pozostávajú všetky veci (Kolosanov 1:15-17)
Jesus is the image of the invisible God. He is the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person (Hebrejci 1:3). If you know Jesus Christ, the Son of God and the Word that was made flesh, you know the Father. No one has seen the Father than Jesus Christ (Oh. John 1:18, 6:46). Len cez Slovo, you can get to know the Father (Prečítajte si tiež: Bol Ježiš plne človekom?).
Philip saith unto Him, Pane, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. Ježiš mu povedal, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known Me, Philip? he that hath seen Me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of Myself: but the Father that dwelleth in Me, He doeth the works. Believe Me that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me: or else believe me for the very works’ Záujme.
Naozaj, veru, hovorím ti, Ten, kto verí vo Mňa, skutky, ktoré ja konám, bude aj on konať; a väčšie skutky ako tieto bude konať; pretože idem k svojmu Otcovi. And whatsoever ye shall ask in My Name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in My Name, I will do it (John 14:8-14)
Philip had spent so much time with Jesus and still, Philip asked Jesus to show them the Father. While Jesus was the reflection of the Father. The words, Jesus spoke and the works, He did were the words and works of the Father.
To ukazuje, that as long as you remainstaré stvorenie, it’s hard to believe and to see, chápať, and understand the spiritual things of the Kingdom of God.
Only when you become born again in the spirit, you will enter the Kingdom of God and you will see the Kingdom of God and understand the spiritual things.
Jesus is the Firstborn of every creature
Na počiatku bolo Slovo, a Slovo bolo u Boha, a to Slovo bol Boh. To isté bolo na počiatku u Boha. Všetky veci stvoril Ním; a bez Neho nepovstalo nič, čo vzniklo (John 1:1-3)
These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God (Zjavenie 3:14)
Jesus is the Firstborn of every creature. Jesus existed before everything else was created. Nothing existed before Him. All things in the heavens and on the earth, the visible and invisible, či to budú tróny, dominions, kniežatstvá, alebo právomoci; all things were created by Him and for Him.
To nám ukazuje, the ultimate authority and highest power of Jesus Christ, above all other forces, právomoci, thrones, dominions, kniežatstvá, atď.. There is no higher and greater power in the heavens and on earth, that stands above God (Efezanom 1:20-23).
Since all things were created by Him and for Him, Jesus had to come to the earth. So that through Him, nové stvorenie; the new man could be created. There was no one, who could do that, than Jesus Christ, Živé Slovo. And so Jesus became the Firstborn of the new creation (Prečítajte si tiež: Celé stvorenie je stvorené v Ježišovi Kristovi).
The new creation is the image of Jesus Christ
Pre ktorých On vopred vedel, On tiež predurčil, aby sa prispôsobil obrazu Jeho Syna, that He might be the Firstborn among many brethren (Rimanom 8:29)
Just like Jesus is the image of the invisible God, so shall those, who are called according to His purpose, vierou v Ježiša Krista a znovuzrodením v Neho, be conformed to the image of Jesus Christ.
Tie, who are born again in Him and are justified by His blood and born of voda and Spirit and have become a new creation, shall be the image of Jesus Christ on earth. They shall belong to Him and submit to Him and live according to the will of God.
They shall walk after the Spirit and have an experiential relationship with Jesus Christ and the Father and speak and do His words and His works, Áno, even greater works, says Jesus, pretože išiel k Otcovi, and they shall bear the same fruit.
And so they shall be witnesses of Jesus Christ on earth and in His Name preach the gospel and call the people to repentance and the removal of sin and deliver them from the powers of darkness.
Kvôli tomu, tie, who are born again in the spirit and are born of God and belong to Him and walk in the light shall distinguish themselves from those, who through natural birth belong to the devil and the world and walk in darkness.
