I At the proper time, God raised
up his servant Jesus (Yeshuah) to turn the people from their
wickedness,1
as Moses said, “The Lord your God will raise up for you from your
own people a prophet like me. You must listen to whatever he tells
you.2
And it shall be that every soul who does not listen to that prophet
shall be destroyed from the people.”3
He is God’s chosen one, the son to whom God commands us to listen.4
He came to open our eyes, so that we may turn from darkness to light
and from the power of Satan to God, that we may receive forgiveness
of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in him.5
And he commanded his witnesses to preach to the people and to testify
that he is the one appointed by God to be judge of the living and the
dead.6
II Jesus
did nothing on his own authority, but did those things as the Father
taught him,7
saying, “I do not seek my own will but the will of the him who sent
me” 8
Being the man whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, he
committed no blaspheme to say that he was one with the Father.9
For he did not speak on his own initiative, but spoke and did exactly
as the Father commanded him.10
And he has accomplished the work that the Father gave him to do.11
Likewise we are to be one with God, perfected in unity, even as
Christ was one with the Father and not of this world.12
III Jesus is this man attested
by God with mighty works and wonders and signs that God did through
him.13
For God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with holy spirit and with power,
and he went around doing good and healing all who were oppressed by
the devil, for God was with him.14
He was put to death, but God raised him on the third day and allowed
him to appear.15
Having been delivered up according to the definite plan and
foreknowledge of God,16
he is now exalted at God’s right hand17
wherefore the Father has made him both Lord and Christ.18
Heaven has received him until the period of restoration of all things
about which God spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets from ancient
time.19
IV This is eternal life, that we
may know the only true God, and Christ Jesus whom he has sent.20
The son of man was lifted up, that whoever believes in him may have
eternal life.21
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only son, that whoever
believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.22
He is the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the
Father except through him.23
And there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we
might be saved.24
On the son of man, God has set his seal.25
To him all the prophets testify that everyone who believes in him
receives the forgiveness of sins.26
V God our savior, desires all
people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For
there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the
man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all.27
In that a mediator involves more than one party, and whereas God is
one,28
Christ did not exalt himself to be made a high priest, but was
appointed by him who said to him, "You are my son, today I have
begotten you".29
For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed to act on
behalf of men in relation to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for
sins.30
Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, has freed us from our sins by
his own blood.31
VI As Father lives, Jesus lives
because of the Father, so that he who comes to him will live and be
raised up on the last day.32
The hour is coming when the dead will hear the voice of the son of
God, and those who hear will live.33
As God gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things
that do not exist, so he has granted the son also to have life in
himself to bring with him those who have fallen asleep.34
The Father has given his son authority over all flesh, to give
eternal life.35
And he has been given authority to execute judgment, because he is
of man.36
VII The first man, Adam, became
a living soul. The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.37
Sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin, so
death spread to all… even over those who had not sinned in the
likeness of the offense of Adam, who was a akin to him who was to
come.38
As through one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners, even
so through the obedience of the one the many will be made righteous.39
Since by a man came death, by a man also came the resurrection of the
dead. For as in Adam all die so also in Christ all will be made
alive.40
At the appointed time the dead in Christ will be raised
imperishable; mortals will put on immortality.41
Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also
bear the image of the man of heaven.42
VIII The heavens existed long
ago, and the earth was formed by the word of God.43
From the foundation of the world, reason was with the Father and all
things were made through it.44
In the fullness of time, through God’s word, life was made
manifest, and this life was the light of man.45
According to the eternal purpose that God has realized in Christ
Jesus our Lord, we proclaim the plan of the mystery hidden for ages
in God who created all things, as a plan for the fullness of time to
unite all things to himself.46
By the divine word, the heavens and earth that now exist are stored
up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of
the ungodly.47
The Lord patient to fulfill his promise, not wishing that any should
perish, but that all should reach repentance.48
IX The testimony of Jesus is the
spirit of prophecy.49
He who is called Faithful and True, in righteousness will judge and
make war.50
The name by which he is called is the Word of God51
and the armies of heaven will follow him.52
From his mouth will come a sharp sword with which to strike down the
nations, and he will rule them.53
He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the
Almighty.54
He must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet;
including death itself.55
Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father
after destroying every rule and every authority and power.56
Finally, when all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself
will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under
him, that God may be all in all.57
The day of the Lord will come and then the heavens will pass away
with a roar, and the cosmos will be burned up and dissolved.58
But according to his promise we are waiting for new heavens and a new
earth in which righteousness dwells.59
X Jesus is the firstborn over
all creation.60
It is the Father’s good pleasure to reconcile all things to himself
through him.61
Now through Christ Jesus we exist.62
For God has put all things in subjection under his feet.63
He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that he himself
will come to have first place in everything.64
He died and behold he is alive forevermore, and has the keys of Death
and Hades.65
The lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, has conquered.66
To him who has made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father, be
glory and dominion forever.67
Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!68
XI There is one God, the Father
from whom are all things and for whom we exist69
And there is one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom we exist.70
The Father loves the son and has given all things into his hand.71
Whoever believes in the son has eternal life; whoever does not obey
the son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.72
Even now, the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Every tree
therefore that does not bare good fruit is cut down and thrown into
the fire.73
To be saved from this condemned age and receive the promise of holy
spirit, we must repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ
for the remission of our sins.74
He is the one who baptizes with holy spirit and with fire.75
Through him we have adoption as sons76
and an inheritance in the coming kingdom of our Lord and of his
Christ wherefore we preach, “The time is fulfilled, and the
Kingdom of God is at hand, repent and believe the gospel.”77
