Jesus Did, so we can do

De vijf Wijze en Dwaze Maagden, RP-P-OB-46.198

There is a phrase, “Jesus did it all”. Jesus did do it all in terms of satisfying the demands of God’s justice.  Jesus did what no man could do.  Jesus overcome the sin, sickness, and death that came in at the disobedience and fall of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden.

But that does not mean that there is nothing left for man to do.

The first thing unredeemed man has to do is be born again into the kingdom of God.  Then there is more.

Ephesians 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

 

Titus 2:11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,

12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;

 

II Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
