0623 耶穌是中保

因為只有一位神,在神和人中間,只有一位中保,乃是降世為人的基督耶穌;祂舍自己作萬人的贖價,到了時候,這事必證明出來。……我願男人無忿怒,無爭論,舉起聖潔的手,隨處禱告。

提摩太前書 2:5-6,8

耶穌是中保。祂為人類舍了自己的生命作為贖價,因為人無法滿足聖潔的神的公義要求。祂說……

即使現在,我能夠站在你和冒犯你的人之間;讓我在你裡面造一顆新的心,一顆饒恕,渴望和好到一種程度,以至於放棄你需要是對的之心……

0623 JESUS is MEDIATOR

JESUS is MEDIATOR.  He gave His life as a ransom for mankind, who could not meet the just demands of a holy God.  He says…

Even now I am available to stand between you and the person who has offended you.  Let Me create in you a new heart, one which forgives, one which desires reconciliation to the point of giving up your need to be right…

“For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus who gave Himself as a reason for all, the testimony borne at the proper time…Therefore, I want men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and dissension.”

1 Timothy 2:5-6,8
