Why Do We Believe and Worshipped Jesus?

by Indra Widaryanto
 
in the world of this is there many religions and belief with the special characteristic each. so, why do we believe and worshipped jesus? ? isn't it true that there [are] plenty more other choice? ask kenapa…. ?
 
answer from question above a while ago we met in apostle mail paulus to jemaat colossians (colossians 1: 15-23). mail colossians written with holy spirit divine inspiration passes apostle paulus. when does mail colossians this written, conditon bot many differ from present situation. spirituality world at that time chockablock various religion and belief current each offered special solution towards human life problem.
 
with background such, is not mengheraknan when at colossians go around opinion that that jesus christ not other only one of so much many world figures spiritual menjembatani between world and heaven
 
when does true such so that jesus christ all the same with another figures and there is no special matter in self jesus. he only “sa one of so much many juruselamat”. mean to believe to jesus sertamenyembah- not so important, because unconvinced and can not worshipped jesus even also still can congratulation. isn't it true that still many again figure that admit as juruslamat?
 
to give true opinion towards general opinion berdar moment that, apostle paulus get pewahyuan from holy spirit to writes mail colossians the kernel wants to give true instruction about siapakah actually that jesus christ
 
in colossians 1: 15 - 23 apostles paulus give four answers steady about siapakah actually god yesus…. . so that we must believe and worshipped him not other. melaui these verses, apostle paulus declare that us obligatory believe and worshipped jesus christ because:
1. jesus christ allah picture invisible
we know that that allah is existence spirit (yoh 4: 24) and there is not even one man ever see allah. even though allah spirit and invisible that declare meri-nya in christ jesus christ
 
apostle paulus in kolose 1: 15 explain that jesus “gambar allah not kelihatan”. here paulus wear term “eikon” = manifestasi statement or photo. when do we want to know that allah like to what, we can see to yesus…. because he is “potret” from allah.
 
in yoh 10: 30 jesus christ bersabda “a and bapa one. ” yoh 1: 1- 3 furthermore gives certainty to the effect that this:
“pada the beginning saying: that saying is together with allah and that saying allah. he is in the begining together with allah. everything menjadiakan by him and without he there is no satupun that readymade from all that. ”
many people not so sure allahs wants to compassionate them. look at jesus how does he compassionate ones sin. such also allah!
many people that has that allah concepts likes bapa artisan huffs exclusively. look at jesus, what such? not not? yes, also not artisan huffs.
has allah concepts sebabai old grandfather outdoor human reach. look at jesus, what like that? not! jesus full of spritual energy and fresh! so also the things of with allah.
 
application - because jesus allah, so bothing;there is no possibility other except we believe and worshipped him obligingly!
 
2. jesus christ creator all existing
in colossians 1: 16,17 apostles paulus elanjut kristologi with confirm that jesus christ creator everything:
- exist in heaven - angels
- exist in earth - earth and all its contents
- that appear - matter world
- invisible - spirit world
- throne / kingdom - administrator
 
furthermore paulus menyta that is everything created by jesus and to jesus (cabbage 1: 16 bgian end). really terrible and incredible! because jesus christ the creator, so:
- he is that's also that creat us all.
- he understands all problems and our wrestling
- bothing;there is no one halpun that can separate us from pada-.
 
application - bothing;there is no possibility other for us except believe and worshipped jesus obligingly.
 
3. jesus christ road to sorga……. . through the cross
this matter is proposed by paulus in colossians 1: 20. that jesus christ is bot merely allah picture and the creator,  but he is so compassionate that human so that want to go down kedunia be road for human to step into heaven!
 
conciliation road between human with only can happen to pass effusive christ blood at cross! thereby jesus can say “ i am road and truth dah hidup” (jhon 14: 6). jesus not signpost,  but he is itself road, road that bring human sins to step into heaven!
 
4. jesus christ gets up from kematian-
before jesus christ really there people who ever die then get up kemabali. for example lazarus that die 4 days then get up to return. but that man after get up then die again. other the things of with jesus, he is bankit from grave and never die again! grave jesus still in yerusalem,  but that empty grave!
 
here's covering denunciateds fourth that submitted by paulus in colossians 1: 18b. there is no satupun world figure spiritual that die then get up to return. thereby jesus christ individual very unit, other from in other! therefore there is no alternative except believe and worshipped him.
 
apostle paulus in colossians 1: 23 give calling to jemaat colossians and also all god peoples alongside century and time to:
- persevere and believe in
- firm permanent and doesn't judder
- don't want to shifted from gospel expectation
