双语灵修丨葛培理布道团:清晰讯息(2020.07.05)

耶和华的律法全备... —诗篇19:7

The law of the Lord is perfect . . —Psalm 19:7

圣经是基督教的宪法。它不可私意解说就像美国宪法不可私意解说一样。正如宪法包含了所有生活在其规定的领域之外,没有例外,所以圣经也包括所有生活在其规定域之下的人,没有例外。上帝的律法针对灵性的世界也被发现在圣经里。无论我们想要从上帝那里知道什么,我们都可以透过圣经来清晰的得知。自然的规律告诉我们上帝的作为,但是这不够太明确。因为他不能告诉我们上帝的慈爱和恩惠。存在我们里面的内心的确也能让我们知道些上帝,但这也不是完整的。因此,在世界上唯一一个能够让我们清楚,准确的认识上帝的地方,就是在圣经里。

The Bible is the constitution of Christianity. Just as the United States Constitution is not of any private interpretation, neither is the Bible of any private interpretation. Just as the Constitution includes all who live under its stated domain, without exception, so the Bible includes all who live under its stated domain, without exception. God’s laws for the spiritual world are found in the Bible. Whatever else there may be that tells us of God, it is more clearly told in the Bible. Nature in her laws tells us of God, but the message is not too clear. It tells us nothing of the love and grace of God. Conscience, in our inmost being, does tell us of God, but the message is fragmentary. The only place we can find a clear, unmistakable message is in the Word of God, which we call the Bible.

今日祷告:
求神能够让这个世界依靠你的律例,不受歧视,得以完全。教导我当我读经的时候能够因着耶稣基督的爱去去遵从、顺从你的诫命。

Prayer for the day:
How I pray that the world would live by Your law—which bears no discrimination but is perfect. Teach me as I read the Bible to follow Your commandments which are not impossible to obey because of Jesus Christ's love.
