Galatians 2:20

WHO ELSE, IF NOT JESUS? (VII)

0 Comments
Buddhism has no answer to the hereafter. The simple reason is that, it has no architectural part in the hereafter design. The Author of creationism has already blessed us with the asseveration of John 14:18, "I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you." A wise person, therefore, will get Jesus involved. 'Comfortless' is an interesting Greek orphanos (or-fan-os'): 'bereaved ("orphan"), that is, parentless.' It also includes those bereft of a (teacher, guide, guardian).

Our Christian lives are interpretation of the righteousness of Christ, our Dwelling. In Greek the word 'holiness' is hosiotēs (hos-ee-ot'-ace) 'piety towards God, fidelity in observing the obligations of piety, holiness.' From the heathen, with whom God had no spiritual transaction of any covenant, God expected no piety. To the Israel of His covenant, even before the parturition of the patriarchal twelve, God said, "....Be ye holy; for I am holy" [1Peter 1:16]; taken from Leviticus 11:44. God was careful not to say it to the Egyptian, Roman, Indian or Chinese. Only to one nation of Israel He had the covenant, ergo, Paul will often write, "First to the Jew then to the Gentiles."Read More
