对今日诗句的想法
感谢神!他为我们提供了赎罪祭,为我们的罪付出了代价,使我们得以称义——因为没有人能完完全全地守住律法而称义。神因着自己无尽的恩典,赐下了主耶稣,让他完成我们所无法做到的:活出完美的生命,并且为我们的罪将自己献上作为完美的祭。从此,我们无需活在律法以下,试图为自己赚得完美和神的接纳。我们现在是靠“信心”而活,相信神会透过基督的完美看待我们,而非我们的瑕疵;相信神会按照主耶稣的圣洁审判我们,而非我们的过犯;相信神会透过主的公义审视我们,而非我们的不义。这样,我们就成全了律法要求的公义,却又无需再背负“律法的诅咒”了。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Thankfully, God provided us the Sacrifice that makes us righteous and pays for our sins because none of us keeps God's laws perfectly. In his boundless grace, God sent Jesus to do what we could not do: live a perfect life, never sin, and offer himself as the perfect sacrifice for our sins, transgressions, and rebelliousness. We don't have to live under any law trying to earn our perfection and God's acceptance. Instead, we live "by faith," trusting that God will look at us through Christ's perfection, not our imperfection. We trust that God will judge us based on Jesus' holiness and not our transgressions and view us through the Son's righteousness and not our unrighteousness. In this way, we fulfill the righteousness requirements of God's Law by faith empowered by the Holy Spirit, without being bound to the "curse of the law."
我的祷告
全能、圣洁的神啊,感谢你和你的计划!你的恩典将我从罪和死亡中救出,又赐给了我活出得胜生命的道路。慈爱的天父,我为主耶稣和他圣洁、令人敬畏的生命感谢你,我为主耶稣的慷慨和因为爱而作出的牺牲感谢你!愿我所说的话、我的生命,都能够向世人彰显——你的恩典已经充满了我的心;我对主的信心,已经改变了我的生命!奉主耶稣基督圣名祈求,阿们!
