whoever disobeys the Son will not see life, but must endure God’s wrath/مَنْ لا يُطِيعُ الٱبْنَ لَنْ يَرَى حَيَاةً، بَلْ غَضَبُ اللهِ يَسْتَقِرُّ عَلَيْه

636

مَنْ يُؤْمِنُ بِٱلٱبْنِ يَنَالُ حَيَاةً أَبَدِيَّة، ومَنْ لا يُطِيعُ الٱبْنَ لَنْ يَرَى حَيَاةً، بَلْ غَضَبُ اللهِ يَسْتَقِرُّ عَلَيْه
إنجيل القدّيس يوحنّا03/من31حتى36/”أَلآتِي مِنْ فَوْقُ هُوَ فَوقَ الجَمِيع. مَنْ كَانَ مِنَ الأَرْضِ أَرْضِيٌّ هُوَ، ولُغَةَ الأَرْضِ يَتَكَلَّم. أَلآتي مِنَ السَّمَاءِ هُوَ فَوْقَ الجَمِيع، وهُوَ يَشْهَدُ بِمَا رَأَى وسَمِعَ، ولا أَحَدَ يَقْبَلُ شَهَادَتَهُ. مَنْ قَبِلَ شَهَادَتَهُ فَقَدْ خَتَمَ عَلى أَنَّ اللهَ صَادِق. فَمَنْ أَرْسَلَهُ اللهُ يَنْطِقُ بِكَلامِ الله، وهوَ يُعْطي الرُّوحَ بِغَيْرِ حِسَاب. أَلآبُ يُحِبُّ الٱبْنَ وقَدْ جَعَلَ في يَدِهِ كُلَّ شَيء. مَنْ يُؤْمِنُ بِٱلٱبْنِ يَنَالُ حَيَاةً أَبَدِيَّة، ومَنْ لا يُطِيعُ الٱبْنَ لَنْ يَرَى حَيَاةً، بَلْ غَضَبُ اللهِ يَسْتَقِرُّ عَلَيْه”.

 

Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever disobeys the Son will not see life, but must endure God’s wrath
John 03/31-36: “The one who comes from above is above all; the one who is of the earth belongs to the earth and speaks about earthly things. The one who comes from heaven is above all. He testifies to what he has seen and heard, yet no one accepts his testimony. Whoever has accepted his testimony has certified this, that God is true. He whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for he gives the Spirit without measure. The Father loves the Son and has placed all things in his hands.Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever disobeys the Son will not see life, but must endure God’s wrath.”

فَإِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ هكَذا أَوْصَانَا: إِنِّي جَعَلْتُكَ نُورًا لِلأُمَم، لِتَكُونَ أَنْتَ خَلاصًا حَتَّى أَقَاصي ٱلأَرْض
سفر أعمال الرسل13/من44حتى52/”يا إِخوتي، في ٱلسَّبْتِ ٱلتَّالي، كَادَتِ ٱلمَدينَةُ كُلُّهَا تَجْتَمِعُ لِتَسْمَعَ كَلِمَةَ ٱلرَّبّ. ورَأَى ٱليَهُودُ تِلْكَ ٱلجُمُوعَ فَٱمْتَلأُوا حَسَدًا، وأَخَذُوا يُعَارِضُونَ أَقْوَالَ بُولُسَ ويُجَدِّفُون. فقَالَ لَهُم بُولُسُ وبَرْنَابَا بِجُرأَة: « لَكُم أَنْتُم أَوَّلاً كَانَ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ تُقَالَ كَلِمَةُ ٱلله. وبِمَا أَنَّكُم تَرْفُضُونَهَا وَتَحْكُمُونَ على أَنَّكُم غَيْرُ أَهْلٍ لِلْحَيَاةِ ٱلأَبَديَّة، فَهَا نَحْنُ نَتَوَجَّهُ إِلى ٱلأُمَم. فَإِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ هكَذا أَوْصَانَا: إِنِّي جَعَلْتُكَ نُورًا لِلأُمَم، لِتَكُونَ أَنْتَ خَلاصًا حَتَّى أَقَاصي ٱلأَرْض». ولَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلوَثَنِيُّونَ ذلِكَ، فَرِحُوا ومَجَّدُوا كَلِمَةَ ٱلرَّبّ، وآمَنَ جَميعُ ٱلَّذِينَ كانُوا مُعَدِّينَ لِلحَياةِ ٱلأَبَدِيَّة. وكانَتْ كلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ تَنتَشِرُ في كُلِّ تِلكَ ٱلنَّاحِية. أَمَّا ٱليَهُودُ فحَرَّضُوا ٱلنِّسَاءَ ٱلتَّقِيَّاتِ ٱلنَّبِيلات، وأَعْيَانَ ٱلمَدينَة، وأَثَارُوا ٱضْطِهَادًا على بُولُسَ وبَرْنَابَا، وطَرَدُوهُمَا مِنْ دِيارِهِم. فَنَفَضَا علَيْهِم غُبَارَ أَرْجُلِهِما، وذَهَبَا إِلى إِيقُونِيَة. وكانَ ٱلتَّلامِيذُ يَمْتَلِئُونَ مِنَ ٱلفَرَحِ وٱلرُّوحِ ٱلقُدُس”

 

For so the Lord has commanded us, saying, “I have set you to be a light for the Gentiles, so that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth
Acts of the Apostles 13/44-52.: “The next sabbath almost the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord. But when the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy; and blaspheming, they contradicted what was spoken by Paul. Then both Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, saying, ‘It was necessary that the word of God should be spoken first to you. Since you reject it and judge yourselves to be unworthy of eternal life, we are now turning to the Gentiles. For so the Lord has commanded us, saying, “I have set you to be a light for the Gentiles, so that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.” ’When the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and praised the word of the Lord; and as many as had been destined for eternal life became believers. Thus the word of the Lord spread throughout the region. But the Jews incited the devout women of high standing and the leading men of the city, and stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them out of their region. So they shook the dust off their feet in protest against them, and went to Iconium. And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
