오늘의 묵상
그리스도인이 된다는 것은, 죄에 물든 옛사람에 대해서는 죽고, 새사람으로 거듭남을 받는다는 것입니다. 유혹과의 전투를 많이 겪고 있지만, 우리는 부활의 능력이 있으며, 우리 안에 도우시며 일하시는 성령님도 계십니다.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
When we became Christians, we died to the old person of sin and were raised up a new person. In baptism, we shared with Jesus in his death, burial, and resurrection (Romans 6:3-14) so that we can share in his victory over sin, death, Satan, and hell. Our lives are now securely joined to Jesus and his future glory (Colossians 2:12-15, 3:1-4). While we have battles with temptation and face trials in this world, we also now have the power of the resurrection and the Holy Spirit at work within us to help us overcome them (John 16:33) — to keep the old, dead, and sinful person buried as the new person awaits the arrival of our Lord and King, Jesus!
내 기도
의로우신 아버지, 제 과거의 죽고 버려진 죄악들을 제 마음속에서 저 멀리 치워버리도록, 또한 제 삶속에서 쫒아 내버리도록 도와주십시오. 제 삶이 거룩한 산 제사가 되어 당신을 기쁘시게 하기를. 나의 구세주 예수님 이름으로 기도합니다. 아멘.
My Prayer...
Righteous Father, help me keep the dead and cast-away sin of my past far away from my heart and out of my life. May my life be a holy sacrifice that is pleasing to you. I ask for the Holy Spirit to fill me with confident hope, knowing that in Jesus, I can overcome the trials and temptations of this world. In the name of my Savior, Jesus, I pray. Amen.
