True interpretation of the scriptures

[arunangelo]

Jesus is the word of God become flesh (John 1:14). In other words, in Jesus the scriptures became a reality. Therefore, to find the true meanings of the scriptures we must look at Jesus’; instead of trying to find our own interpretation. Jesus’ goal in life was to preach good news to the poor, heal the brokenhearted and sacrifice his own life so that those who betrayed him and were unfaithful to him may have eternal life (Luke 4:18 & Isaiah 61:1). He bore our affliction and oppression silently (Isaiah 53: 5 &7). Furthermore, during his suffering and death he forgave his persecutors (Luke 23:34); and was concerned about the suffering they would bring upon themselves by their sins rather than his own suffering (Luke 23:28). Through his chastisement he freed us from sin and put his spirit into our heart. We must, therefore, love one another as he has loved us (John 13:34-35); quietly bear each other’s burdens, forgive without any limit (Matt. 18:22); stay faithful to our marriage vows, even when there is betrayal and unfaithfulness; bind each other’s wounds; and be a servant to others (John 13:14).

Jesus came here for one purpose…to die, and remove the death given the human family by the action of Adam, and Eve. All things Jesus did when he was in human form, were things God the father did through Jesus. Jesus is our Lord, our teacher. He is the living son of the Living God…doing Gods work. All credit goes to the Father.
