For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, что, though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might be rich (2 Коринфянам 8:9)
Jesus in all His riches left heaven and came to the earth, in the likeness of man, to fulfill God’s redemptive plan for fallen mankind. Jesus came to heal (восстановить, mak whole again) и примирить человека с Богом. So that we might be rich through His poverty. Хотя Иисус был fully Man when He came to the earth, Jesus didn’t walk after the flesh in the kingdom of darkness, but Jesus walked after the Spirit in the riches of the Kingdom of His Father.
Jesus became poor
Jesus was sent by the Father to the earth and walked in the Name of His Father and was filled with the Holy Spirit and represented, Проповедовал, and brought the Kingdom of God on earth.
The ‘term’ poor refers not to physical poverty. Because during His life on earth, Jesus didn’t lack a thing. His Father always took care of Him and provided for His needs. But it refers to the spiritual poverty of mankind.
Падение один; грешник, is carnal and trapped in a body and can only live after the flesh, since the spirit of fallen man is death. Падение один, who is also called the old man is separated from God and subject to the spirits of this world.
When did Jesus become spiritually poor? Jesus became poor at the whipping post and on the cross.
At those moments, Jesus submitted Himself and the devil and his demons took authority over Him through people.
На посту порки, Jesus took all our infirmities and sicknesses upon Him. Jesus was brutally beaten and tortured until there was almost no skin left.
Although Jesus had the ability to stop them, because Jesus could have prayed to His Father, Who would have given Him more than twelve legions of angels, Иисус этого не делал.
Jesus didn’t do anything to stop them, because the Scriptures had to be fulfilled.
Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to My Father, и вскоре Он даст Мне более двенадцати легионов ангелов? Но как же исполнятся Священные Писания, что так и должно быть? (Мэтью 26:53-54)
Jesus walked the way of poverty
Jesus stayed obedient to God the Father and His words. Therefore Jesus allowed them to take Him captive and endured the whipping at the whipping post and the crucifixion.
And so Jesus walked the way of poverty; He laid down all His authority; all His spiritual riches for us. Из-за этого, you don’t have to go the way of poverty, but you can walk in the way of riches.
After the whipping post, Jesus took up His cross and walked to the place of Calvary, where Jesus would be crucified.
When Jesus was crucified and hung at the cross (tree), Jesus took all our sins and iniquities upon Him. When Jesus carried all our sins and iniquities, the Father left Jesus, потому что Бог не может общаться с грехом (Читайте также: ‘Истинное значение креста').
В тот момент, when the Father left Jesus, Jesus was the poorest. But Jesus stayed faithful to His Father and persevered and accomplished the plan of God, so that we could become rich through His poverty.
Богатый благодаря Своей бедности
Но все же принявшие Его, Он дал им власть стать сынами Божьими, даже тем, кто верит в Его Имя: Которые родились, не крови, ни от воли плоти, ни по воле человека, но от Бога (Джон 1:12-13)
You have become rich through His poverty! Из-заgrace of God the Father, you have been given power to become a son of God.
By the blood of Jesus and through regeneration, you are reconciled to God and have been made a new creation; сын Божий.
Как новое творение; сын Божий (как мужчина, так и женщина), you have been given in Christ the same riches.
You have entered the Kingdom of God through regeneration and you have been given the Name above all names; тот Имя Иисуса Христа and you have been given the Holy Spirit of God, Кто пребывает в тебе.
Therefore you have the same position, власть, and power as Jesus Christ. Да, even greater, потому что Иисус пошел к Отцу.
Воистину, воистину, Я говорю тебе, Тот, кто верит в Меня, дела, которые я делаю, сотворит и он; и дела большие, чем эти, сотворит он; потому что Я иду к Отцу Моему. И о чем ни попросите во Имя Мое, это я сделаю, чтобы Отец прославился в Сыне. Если чего попросите во Имя Мое, I will do it (Джон 14:12-14).
We are seated in Jesus Christ
Но Бог, кто богат милосердием, за Его великую любовь, которой Он возлюбил нас, Даже когда мы были мертвы во грехах, оживил нас со Христом, (благодатью вы спасены;) И воскресил нас вместе, и посадил нас на небесах во Христе Иисусе: Чтобы в грядущих веках Он мог показать преизобилующее богатство Своей благодати в Своей доброте к нам через Христа Иисуса. (Ефесянам 2:4-7)
Мы сидящий в Иисусе Христе at the right hand of the Father and have been given in Him the inheritance; all the riches; all authority and power in heaven and on earth.
Сквозь жертва Иисуса, you can have a life in abundance. You have been made rich, when you were filled with the Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ; the Word dwells in you.
It’s not about money and material possessions, but it’s about the Holy Spirit, Whom you have received in Jesus Christ. It’s about the place and the authority you have been given in Jesus Christ and the power you have received in Him from the Father.
You have been given the Holy Spirit, so that you will be able to fulfill the Заповеди Иисуса Христа and represent the Kingdom of God on earth and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and bring the Kingdom of God to the people, so that they also might be saved and enter the Kingdom of God through regeneration and receive the grace and the riches of God.
You are precious to Him, He showed you His love. Jesus gave up all His riches and became (духовный) poor for you, so that you could be rich in Him. Now you can live in Him and have the same life as Jesus Christ on earth. Однако, It will cost you everything, but it’s absolutely worth it! (Читайте также: ‘Следование за Иисусом будет стоить вам всего!).
Jesus has shown His love for you. Сейчас, you can show Jesus your love, оставаясь покорный to Him and His commandments, and do what Jesus has commanded you to do. You can show Him your love, by glorifying and exalting Him and the Father through your works.
