2013.07.10 活潑的生命:願上帝赦免如我生命般的輕慢, 抓住因信稱義的確據而非律法。



今天的經文讓我想起了紀伯侖在“先知”裡的一段話

因為正如愛給你加冠,他也將釘你在十架上。即使他是為著你成長,他同樣也是為著你修剪。(紀伯侖。先知)

原本被神所揀選的以色列人
卻不認神所設立的耶穌基督

原本是以愛給予冠冕的
至終卻將祂釘上十字架

看著耶穌成長的以色列長輩
至終卻成為剪除耶穌的推手

這是人性中些微的軟弱
但也在最後成為致命傷

如今做為耶穌基督的門徒
不斷地反覆地成就這些事

或許我們輕慢了神的教會
或許我們輕慢了神的恩典

於是你我成了給予冠冕的人
也成了將他人釘上十架的人

於是你我站在教會門口傳福音給眾人
最後也將信主的眾人推出了教會門口

願上帝赦免如我生命般的輕慢,
抓住因信稱義的確據而非律法。


主說:你們這輕慢的人要觀看,要驚奇,要滅亡;因為在你們的時候,我行一件事,雖有人告訴你們,你們總是不信。


使徒行傳

13:26 「弟兄們,亞伯拉罕的子孫和你們中間敬畏 神的人哪,這救世的道是傳給我們的。
Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.
13:27 耶路撒冷居住的人和他們的官長,因為不認識基督,也不明白每安息日所讀眾先知的書,就把基督定了死罪,正應了先知的預言;
For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him .
13:28 雖然查不出他有當死的罪來,還是求彼拉多殺他;
And though they found no cause of death in him , yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain.
13:29 既成就了經上指著他所記的一切話,就把他從木頭上取下來,放在墳墓裡。
And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre.
13:30  神卻叫他從死裡復活。
But God raised him from the dead:
13:31 那從加利利同他上耶路撒冷的人多日看見他,這些人如今在民間是他的見證。
And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.
13:32 我們也報好信息給你們,就是那應許祖宗的話,
And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,
13:33  神已經向我們這作兒女的應驗,叫耶穌復活了。正如詩篇第二篇上記著說:你是我的兒子,我今日生你。
God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
13:34 論到 神叫他從死裡復活,不再歸於朽壞,就這樣說:我必將所應許大衛那聖潔、可靠的恩典賜給你們。
And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David. mercies: Gr. holy, or just things: which word the Septuagint in many places, uses for that which is in the Hebrew, mercies
13:35 又有一篇上說:你必不叫你的聖者見朽壞。
Wherefore he saith also in another psalm , Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
13:36 「大衛在世的時候遵行了 神的旨意,就睡了(或譯:大衛按 神的旨意服事了他那一世的人,就睡了),歸到他祖宗那裡,已見朽壞;
For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption: after...: or, after he had in his own age served the will of God
13:37 惟獨 神所復活的,他並未見朽壞。
But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
13:38 所以,弟兄們,你們當曉得:赦罪的道是由這人傳給你們的。
Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:
13:39 你們靠摩西的律法,在一切不得稱義的事上信靠這人,就都得稱義了。
And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
13:40 所以,你們務要小心,免得先知書上所說的臨到你們。
Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;
13:41 主說:你們這輕慢的人要觀看,要驚奇,要滅亡;因為在你們的時候,我行一件事,雖有人告訴你們,你們總是不信。」
Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.
