Renungan Yesus Kristus Sudah Menyelesaikan

Baca: Yohanes 19:28-42

"Sesudah Yesus meminum anggur asam itu, berkatalah Ia: 'Sudah selesai.' Lalu Ia menundukkan kepala-Nya dan menyerahkan nyawa-Nya." (Yohanes 19:30)

Pernyataan Yesus 'sudah selesai' menunjukkan bahwa bagi Yesus salib bukan hanya sekedar penderitaan atau aniaya bagiNya, tetapi salib adalah sebuah tugas dan misi yang harus Ia emban dari Bapa. Karena salib itu merupakan tugas yang tidak mudah, Yesus pun sujud dan berdoa, "Ya Bapa-Ku, jikalau sekiranya mungkin, biarlah cawan ini lalu dari pada-ku, tetapi janganlah seperti yang Kukehendaki, melainkan seperti yang Engkau kehendaki." (Matius 26:39).

Ungkapan sudah selesai juga ungkapan bahwa Yesus telah menyelesaikannya dan taat sampai akhir seperti yang juga disampaikan Rasul Paulus kepada jemaat di Filipi, "Dan dalam keadaan sebagai manusia, Ia telah merendahkan diri-Nya dan taat sampai mati, bahkan sampai mati di kayu salib." (Filipi 2:8). Karena dosa, seharusnya kita yang menanggung hukuman, tapi kini telah diselesaikan oleh Kristus; dan segala harga yang seharusnya kita bayar telah dilunasi olehNya. Alkitab menyatakan, "Sebab kamu telah dibeli dan harganya telah lunas dibayar: Karena itu muliakanlah Allah dengan tubuhmu." (1 Korintus 6:20). Kita tahu harga dosa adalah maut dan penghukuman kekal. Tetapi dalam Yesus Kristus telah diubah segala kutuk menjadi berkat; dimerdekakan dari dosa menjadi hamba kebenaran!

Bagaimana respons kita terhadap pengorbanan Kristus ini? Dikatakan di atas, "Karena itu muliakanlah Allah dengan tubuhmu." Keselamatan adalah anugerah terbesar dalam hidup kita, karena itu jangan pernah sia-siakan. Jangan lagi kita hidup dalam dosa, melainkan mari kita hidup sebagai 'manusia baru'. Dan selagi masih ada kesempatan mari kita gunakan untuk melayani Tuhan dengan sepenuh hati dan memberi yang terbaik bagi Dia!

Jangan sia-siakan keselamatan yang sudah kita terima ini; mari kita kerjakan keselamatan ini dengan takut dan gentar pula!

The Painting of Destiny

"Are you sure of this, Navan?" The old pirate stared at King Mannas' chief merchant. However, his bright emerald green eyes sparkled with laughter. "The information came from Daoud, one of my former crew members, when I was ravaging the coastal villages of Vyrone." Navan smiled at the expression crossing Gerrod's face, whose family had fled from one of these villages. The Iron Falcon was a legend and parents had always used the threat of its crew and its flaming-haired captain to scare naughty children into sleeping and behaving differently. Gerrod quickly recovered and smiled. "Then he must be a man to be trusted, indeed." "Ah!" cried Navan. "Daoud will take the coin from the mouth of a dead man while it is still warm. I trust him only because he knows the fate of him who lies to me." I may have made him captain when I decided to infiltrate King Mannas' court, but he still knows who is in charge. "We must tell ...
