靈命日糧 2011-01-07
驚嘆不已
讀經 : 羅馬書 5 : 6~11 Romans 5 : 6~11
5:6 因我們還軟弱的時候，基督就按所定的日期為罪人死。
For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. in due time: or, according to the time
5:7 為義人死，是少有的；為仁人死、或者有敢做的。
For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.
5:8 惟有基督在我們還作罪人的時候為我們死， 神的愛就在此向我們顯明了。
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
5:9 現在我們既靠著他的血稱義，就更要藉著他免去 神的忿怒。
Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
5:10 因為我們作仇敵的時候，且藉著 神兒子的死，得與 神和好；既已和好，就更要因他的生得救了。
For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
5:11 不但如此，我們既藉著我主耶穌基督得與 神和好，也就藉著他以 神為樂。
And not only so , but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement. atonement: or, reconciliation
「你看父賜給我們是何等的慈愛，使我們得稱為上帝的兒女！」
約翰一書 3 : 1 1 John 3 : 1
3:1 你看父賜給我們是何等的慈愛，使我們得稱為 神的兒女；我們也真是他的兒女。世人所以不認識我們，是因未曾認識他。
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

Genesis Chapter 18~19
馬太福音 6 : 1~18 Matthew 6 : 1~18 6:1 「你們要小心，不可將善事行在人的面前，故意叫他們看見，若是這樣，就不能得你們天父的賞賜了。
Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven. alms: or, righteousness of your: or, with your
6:2 所以，你施捨的時候，不可在你前面吹號，像那假冒為善的人在會堂裡和街道上所行的，故意要得人的榮耀。我實在告訴你們，他們已經得了他們的賞賜。
Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. do not...: or, cause not a trumpet to be sounded
6:3 你施捨的時候，不要叫左手知道右手所做的，
But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
6:4 要叫你施捨的事行在暗中。你父在暗中察看，必然報答你（有古卷：必在明處報答你）。」
That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.
6:5 「你們禱告的時候，不可像那假冒為善的人，愛站在會堂裡和十字路口上禱告，故意叫人看見。我實在告訴你們，他們已經得了他們的賞賜。
And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are : for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6:6 你禱告的時候，要進你的內屋，關上門，禱告你在暗中的父；你父在暗中察看，必然報答你。
But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
6:7 你們禱告，不可像外邦人，用許多重複話，他們以為話多了必蒙垂聽。
But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do : for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
6:8 你們不可效法他們；因為你們沒有祈求以先，你們所需用的，你們的父早已知道了。
Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
6:9 所以，你們禱告要這樣說：我們在天上的父：願人都尊你的名為聖。
After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.6:10 願你的國降臨；願你的旨意行在地上，如同行在天上。
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
6:11 我們日用的飲食，今日賜給我們。
Give us this day our daily bread.
6:12 免我們的債，如同我們免了人的債。
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
6:13 不叫我們遇見試探；救我們脫離兇惡（或作：脫離惡者）。因為國度、權柄、榮耀，全是你的，直到永遠。阿們（有古卷沒有因為……阿們等字）！
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
6:14 「你們饒恕人的過犯，你們的天父也必饒恕你們的過犯；
For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
6:15 你們不饒恕人的過犯，你們的天父也必不饒恕你們的過犯。」
But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
6:16 「你們禁食的時候，不可像那假冒為善的人，臉上帶著愁容；因為他們把臉弄得難看，故意叫人看出他們是禁食。我實在告訴你們，他們已經得了他們的賞賜。
Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6:17 你禁食的時候，要梳頭洗臉，
But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;
6:18 不叫人看出你禁食來，只叫你暗中的父看見；你父在暗中察看，必然報答你。」
That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.
我在一個年輕女子的個人網站上讀到這段話：「我只是想被愛，而他必須令人驚嘆！」
這不正是我們都想要的嗎──能被愛，感受到某人的關心？如果對方又好得令人驚嘆，那就更是錦上添花了！
能夠完全符合這些描述的就是耶穌基督。祂離開天父來到世間，成為我們在聖誕時所慶祝誕生的那個嬰孩
路加福音 2 : 11~12 Luke 2 : 11~12
2:11 因今天在大衛的城裡，為你們生了救主，就是主基督。
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
2:12 你們要看見一個嬰孩，包著布，臥在馬槽裡，那就是記號了。
And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
向我們顯明了無比的愛。祂的一生完美無罪，在十架上替我們受死，成為獻給上帝的祭約翰福音 19 : 17~30 John 19 : 17~30
19:17 他們就把耶穌帶了去。耶穌背著自己的十字架出來，到了一個地方，名叫髑髏地，希伯來話叫各各他。
And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:
19:18 他們就在那裡釘他在十字架上，還有兩個人和他一同釘著，一邊一個，耶穌在中間。
Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.
19:19 彼拉多又用牌子寫了一個名號，安在十字架上，寫的是：猶太人的王，拿撒勒人耶穌。
And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.
19:20 有許多猶太人念這名號；因為耶穌被釘十字架的地方與城相近，並且是用希伯來、羅馬、希臘三樣文字寫的。
This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.
19:21 猶太人的祭司長就對彼拉多說：不要寫猶太人的王，要寫他自己說：我是猶太人的王。
Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews.
19:22 彼拉多說：我所寫的，我已經寫上了。
Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.
19:23 兵丁既然將耶穌釘在十字架上，就拿他的衣服分為四分，每兵一分；又拿他的裡衣，這件裡衣原來沒有縫兒，是上下一片織成的。
Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout. woven: or, wrought
19:24 他們就彼此說：我們不要撕開，只要拈鬮，看誰得著。這要應驗經上的話說：他們分了我的外衣，為我的裡衣拈鬮。兵丁果然做了這事。
They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.19:25 站在耶穌十字架旁邊的，有他母親與他母親的姊妹，並革羅罷的妻子馬利亞，和抹大拉的馬利亞。
Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene. Cleophas: or, Clopas
19:26 耶穌見母親和他所愛的那門徒站在旁邊，就對他母親說：母親（原文作婦人），看，你的兒子！
When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!
19:27 又對那門徒說：看，你的母親！從此，那門徒就接她到自己家裡去了。
Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home .
19:28 這事以後，耶穌知道各樣的事已經成了，為要使經上的話應驗，就說：我渴了。
After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.
19:29 有一個器皿盛滿了醋，放在那裡；他們就拿海絨蘸滿了醋，綁在牛膝草上，送到他口。
Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth.
19:30 耶穌嘗（原文作受）了那醋，就說：成了！便低下頭，將靈魂交付 神了。
When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
祂頂替了我們的罪，因為我們都需要從罪中被拯救，才能逃過死亡刑罰。
「惟有基督在我們還作罪人的時候為我們死」 羅馬書5章8節）。耶穌死後第三天，天父又使祂從死裡復活。
馬太福音 28 : 1~8 Matthew 28 : 1~8
28:1 安息日將盡，七日的頭一日，天快亮的時候，抹大拉的馬利亞和那個馬利亞來看墳墓。
In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
28:2 忽然，地大震動；因為有主的使者從天上下來，把石頭滾開，坐在上面。
And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it. was: or, had been
28:3 他的像貌如同閃電，衣服潔白如雪。
His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
28:4 看守的人就因他嚇得渾身亂戰，甚至和死人一樣。
And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men .
28:5 天使對婦女說：不要害怕！我知道你們是尋找那釘十字架的耶穌。
And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
28:6 他不在這裡，照他所說的，已經復活了。你們來看安放主的地方。
He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
28:7 快去告訴他的門徒，說他從死裡復活了，並且在你們以先往加利利去，在那裡你們要見他。看哪，我已經告訴你們了。
And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.
28:8 婦女們就急忙離開墳墓，又害怕，又大大的歡喜，跑去要報給他的門徒。
And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
當我們認罪悔改，並接受耶穌奇妙大愛的禮物時，祂就成為我們的拯救者
約翰福音 1 : 12 John 1 : 12
1:12 凡接待他的，就是信他名的人，他就賜他們權柄，作 神的兒女。
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: power: or, the right, or, privilege
羅馬書 5 : 9 Romans 5 : 9
5:9 現在我們既靠著他的血稱義，就更要藉著他免去 神的忿怒。
Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
主人（約翰福音 13 : 14 John 13 : 14）、
13:14 我是你們的主，你們的夫子，尚且洗你們的腳，你們也當彼此洗腳。
If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
老師（馬太福音 23 : 8 Matthew 23 : 8）
23:8 但你們不要受拉比的稱呼，因為只有一位是你們的夫子；你們都是弟兄。
But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
以及朋友（約翰福音 15 : 14 John 15 : 14）。
15:14 你們若遵行我所吩咐的，就是我的朋友了。
Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
「你看父賜給我們是何等的慈愛，使我們得稱為上帝的兒女。」（約翰一書 3 : 1 1 John 3 : 1）
你正在找人來愛你嗎？耶穌愛我們甚於任何人，而且祂真的是令人驚嘆不已！AMC
何其美妙！道成肉身，
替我之罪，為我受罰；
因我犯罪，註定一死，得享永生，靠祂得勝。Anon
最令人驚嘆的美事──耶穌愛我！

He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
28:7 快去告訴他的門徒，說他從死裡復活了，並且在你們以先往加利利去，在那裡你們要見他。看哪，我已經告訴你們了。
And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.
28:8 婦女們就急忙離開墳墓，又害怕，又大大的歡喜，跑去要報給他的門徒。
And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
當我們認罪悔改，並接受耶穌奇妙大愛的禮物時，祂就成為我們的拯救者
約翰福音 1 : 12 John 1 : 12
1:12 凡接待他的，就是信他名的人，他就賜他們權柄，作 神的兒女。
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: power: or, the right, or, privilege
羅馬書 5 : 9 Romans 5 : 9
5:9 現在我們既靠著他的血稱義，就更要藉著他免去 神的忿怒。
Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
主人（約翰福音 13 : 14 John 13 : 14）、
13:14 我是你們的主，你們的夫子，尚且洗你們的腳，你們也當彼此洗腳。
If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
老師（馬太福音 23 : 8 Matthew 23 : 8）
23:8 但你們不要受拉比的稱呼，因為只有一位是你們的夫子；你們都是弟兄。
But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
以及朋友（約翰福音 15 : 14 John 15 : 14）。
15:14 你們若遵行我所吩咐的，就是我的朋友了。
Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
「你看父賜給我們是何等的慈愛，使我們得稱為上帝的兒女。」（約翰一書 3 : 1 1 John 3 : 1）
你正在找人來愛你嗎？耶穌愛我們甚於任何人，而且祂真的是令人驚嘆不已！AMC
何其美妙！道成肉身，
替我之罪，為我受罰；
因我犯罪，註定一死，得享永生，靠祂得勝。Anon
最令人驚嘆的美事──耶穌愛我！

問心無愧
約翰一書 1 : 1~10 1 John 1 : 10
1:1 論到從起初原有的生命之道，就是我們所聽見、所看見、親眼看過、親手摸過的。
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;
1:2 這生命已經顯現出來，我們也看見過，現在又作見證，將原與父同在、且顯現與我們那永遠的生命、傳給你們。
(For the life was manifested, and we have seen it , and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)
1:3 我們將所看見、所聽見的傳給你們，使你們與我們相交。我們乃是與父並他兒子耶穌基督相交的。
That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
1:4 我們將這些話寫給你們，使你們（有古卷作：我們）的喜樂充足。
And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.
1:5 神就是光，在他毫無黑暗。這是我們從主所聽見、又報給你們的信息。
This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
1:6 我們若說是與 神相交，卻仍在黑暗裡行，就是說謊話，不行真理了。
If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
1:7 我們若在光明中行，如同 神在光明中，就彼此相交，他兒子耶穌的血也洗淨我們一切的罪。
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
1:8 我們若說自己無罪，便是自欺，真理不在我們心裡了。
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
1:9 我們若認自己的罪， 神是信實的，是公義的，必要赦免我們的罪，洗淨我們一切的不義。
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
1:10 我們若說自己沒有犯過罪，便是以 神為說謊的，他的道也不在我們心裡了。
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;
1:2 這生命已經顯現出來，我們也看見過，現在又作見證，將原與父同在、且顯現與我們那永遠的生命、傳給你們。

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

馬太福音 6 : 19~34 Matthew 6 : 19~34
6:19 「不要為自己積儹財寶在地上；地上有蟲子咬，能鏽壞，也有賊挖窟窿來偷。
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
6:20 只要積儹財寶在天上；天上沒有蟲子咬，不能鏽壞，也沒有賊挖窟窿來偷。
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
6:21 因為你的財寶在那裡，你的心也在那裡。」
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
6:22 「眼睛就是身上的燈。你的眼睛若瞭亮，全身就光明；
The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
6:23 你的眼睛若昏花，全身就黑暗。你裡頭的光若黑暗了，那黑暗是何等大呢！」
But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
6:24 「一個人不能事奉兩個主；不是惡這個，愛那個，就是重這個，輕那個。你們不能又事奉 神，又事奉瑪門（瑪門：財利的意思）。」
No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
6:25 「所以我告訴你們，不要為生命憂慮吃甚麼，喝甚麼；為身體憂慮穿甚麼。生命不勝於飲食麼？身體不勝於衣裳麼？
Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
6:26 你們看那天上的飛鳥，也不種，也不收，也不積蓄在倉裡，你們的天父尚且養活牠。你們不比飛鳥貴重得多嗎ey?？
Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
6:27 你們那一個能用思慮使壽數多加一刻呢（或作：使身量多加一肘呢）？
Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
6:28 何必為衣裳憂慮呢？你想野地裡的百合花怎麼長起來；它也不勞苦，也不紡線。
And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
6:29 然而我告訴你們，就是所羅門極榮華的時候，他所穿戴的，還不如這花一朵呢！
And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
6:30 你們這小信的人哪！野地裡的草今天還在，明天就丟在爐裡， 神還給它這樣的妝飾，何況你們呢！
Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
6:31 所以，不要憂慮說：吃甚麼？喝甚麼？穿甚麼？
Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
6:32 這都是外邦人所求的，你們需用的這一切東西，你們的天父是知道的。
(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
6:33 你們要先求他的國和他的義，這些東西都要加給你們了。
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
6:34 所以，不要為明天憂慮，因為明天自有明天的憂慮；一天的難處一天當就夠了。」
Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
6:20 只要積儹財寶在天上；天上沒有蟲子咬，不能鏽壞，也沒有賊挖窟窿來偷。
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
6:21 因為你的財寶在那裡，你的心也在那裡。」
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
6:22 「眼睛就是身上的燈。你的眼睛若瞭亮，全身就光明；
The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
6:23 你的眼睛若昏花，全身就黑暗。你裡頭的光若黑暗了，那黑暗是何等大呢！」

究竟是甚麼事在困擾著她？「我不該被稱為第一位步行環繞全球的女性！」她終於承認道：「我有作弊。」在她環繞全球的旅程中，她曾經有一段路搭了卡車，破壞了金氏世界紀錄的守則。為了不愧對良心，她打電話給她的贊助人，承認了她的欺騙行為。
上帝給了我們每個人良知，這讓我們在做錯事時會有罪惡感。在羅馬書，保羅形容我們的良心能使我們「或以為是，或以為非」
羅馬書 2 : 15 Romans 2 : 15
2:15 這是顯出律法的功用刻在他們心裡，他們是非之心同作見證，並且他們的思念互相較量，或以為是，或以為非。
Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;) their conscience...: or, the conscience witnessing with them the mean...: or, between themselves
對於順服基督的跟隨者，好好注意我們的良心是很重要的，因為良心能指引我們在犯錯時，回到正路。承認並轉離罪惡，並且試圖補償，這該是一種生活方式
約翰一書 1 : 9 1 john 1 ; 9
1:9 我們若認自己的罪， 神是信實的，是公義的，必要赦免我們的罪，洗淨我們一切的不義。
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
利未記 6 : 2~5
6:2 「若有人犯罪，干犯耶和華，在鄰舍交付他的物上，或是在交易上行了詭詐，或是搶奪人的財物，或是欺壓鄰舍，
If a soul sin, and commit a trespass against the LORD, and lie unto his neighbour in that which was delivered him to keep, or in fellowship, or in a thing taken away by violence, or hath deceived his neighbour; in fellowship: or, in dealing fellowship: Heb. putting of the hand
6:3 或是在撿了遺失的物上行了詭詐，說謊起誓，在這一切的事上犯了甚麼罪；
Or have found that which was lost, and lieth concerning it, and sweareth falsely; in any of all these that a man doeth, sinning therein:
6:4 他既犯了罪，有了過犯，就要歸還他所搶奪的，或是因欺壓所得的，或是人交付他的，或是人遺失他所撿的物，
Then it shall be, because he hath sinned, and is guilty, that he shall restore that which he took violently away, or the thing which he hath deceitfully gotten, or that which was delivered him to keep, or the lost thing which he found,
6:5 或是他因甚麼物起了假誓，就要如數歸還，另外加上五分之一，在查出他有罪的日子要交還本主。
Or all that about which he hath sworn falsely; he shall even restore it in the principal, and shall add the fifth part more thereto, and give it unto him to whom it appertaineth, in the day of his trespass offering. in the day...: or, in the day of his being found guilty: Heb. in the day of his trespass
保羅提到好好維持良心：「我因此自己勉勵，對上帝對人，常存無虧的良心」
使徒行傳 24 : 16 Acts 24 : 16
24:16 我因此自己勉勵，對 神對人，常存無虧的良心。
And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men.
保羅透過認罪、悔改，使自己時刻能夠坦然無懼地面對上帝。你正被罪惡困擾嗎？效法保羅的典範，勉勵自己常存無虧的良心！HDF
有一寶你能擁有，
勝過皇冠或寶座；
就是無虧的良心，
給你平安與歡欣。Isenhour
若聖經是你良知的指南，請聽從你的良知。

13:6 所以我們可以放膽說：主是幫助我的，我必不懼怕；人能把我怎麼樣呢？

什麼叫愛 李家同/文
什麼叫愛 李家同/文
我做大學教授已經很多年了，我注意到大學男生屬於白面書生的已經非常少了，
大多數男生都有很健康的膚色，可是比起在外面做工的工人來說，似乎我們的大學生仍然白得多了。
張炳漢是少數皮膚非常黑的那種大學生，難怪他的外號叫作「小黑」，
我是他的導師，第一天導師生面談，他就解釋給我聽為何他如此之黑，
他說他從高二開始就去工地做小工，再加上他是屏東鄉下長大的，所以皮膚黑得不得了。
他說他家不富有，學費和生活費都要靠哥哥，而他哥哥就是一位完全靠勞力賺錢的建築工人，
他大一暑假就跟著他哥哥打工，賺了幾萬元。
有一天，一位屏東縣社會局的社工人員來找我，他告訴我一件令我大吃一驚的事，
他說張炳漢現在的父母絕不可能是他的親生父母，因為他們血型都是Ｏ型，
而張炳漢卻是Ａ型，他們早就發現了這個個案，經過電腦資料庫不斷的搜尋，
他們總算找到了他的親生父母。
長話短說，我只在這裡說一個強有力的證據：
他們發現張炳漢其實是走失的孩子，他現在的父母領養了他，
而他被發現時穿的衣服也有很清楚的記錄，當時他只有二歲，
十八年來，他的親生父母仍保留著當年尋人的廣告，
也從未放棄過找他的意念，那個廣告上的衣服和小黑當年被找到的完全吻合，
再加上其他的證據，他們已可百分之百地確定小黑可以回到親生父母懷抱了。
社工人員問我小黑是一個什麼樣的孩子，我告訴他小黑性格非常爽朗，
他建議我們就立刻告訴他這個消息。小黑聽到了這個消息，當然感到十分地激動，
可是，他告訴我，他早就知道他的父母不可能是他的親生父母，血型是一個因素，
另一個因素是他和他哥哥完全不像，他哥哥不太會唸書，國中畢業以後就去做工了，
他卻對唸書一點困難也沒有，他哥哥體格也比他強壯得多。
他們倆唯一相同之處是口音，可是他認為這是因為他從小學他哥哥的緣故。
不要看小黑年紀輕輕，他的決定卻充滿了智慧，他說他不知道他的親生父母是什麼人物，
可是不論他們是什麼人，他的身分證上父母欄不會改變，他的理由非常簡單：
他們對我這麼好，收養了我，含辛茹苦地將我帶大，我這一輩子都會認他們為爸爸媽媽。
至於親生父母，我會孝順他們，將他們看成自己的父母，只是在法律上，我不要認祖歸宗了。
我和社工人員都為小黑的決定深受感動，社工人員告訴小黑，
他的生父是一位地位不小的公務員，生母是中學老師，他們還有一個兒子，
比小黑小一歲，念大學一年級，他們住在台北。
小黑表現得出奇鎮靜，他要和社工人員一齊回屏東去，將這一切告訴他的爸爸媽媽，
他的爸爸媽媽是典型的鄉下好人，他們聽到這個好消息立刻和台北方面聯絡，
約好週六小黑去台北見他的親生父母。
誰陪他去呢？這個責任落到我 和 太太身上，我們夫婦二人抓了小黑，
到街上去買了新的牛仔褲，新的花襯衫，當時已冷了，我們順便又替他買了一件新毛衣，
星期六一早就從台中開車去台北「相親」。
小黑雖然是個壯漢，可是當他走下汽車的時候，兩腿都有點軟了，
幾乎由我 和 太太扶著他進電梯上樓，大門打開，小黑的媽媽將他一把抱住，哭得像個小孩，
小黑有沒有掉眼淚，我已不記得了，我發現小黑比他媽媽高一個頭，現在是由他來輕拍安慰媽媽。
事後，他告訴我，當天他在回台中的火車上，大哭一場，弄得旁邊的人莫名其妙。
我 和我 太太當然識相地只坐了半小時就走了，半小時內，我觀察到他的親生父母都是非常入情入理的人，
他的弟弟和他很像，可是白得多，和小黑一比，真是所謂的白面書生了。
我心中暗自得意，覺得還是我們的小黑比較漂亮，尤其他笑的時候，
黝黑的臉上露出一口白白的牙齒，有一種特別男孩子的魅力。
小黑收到一件夾克做為禮物，是滑雪的那種羽毛衣，小黑當場試穿，完全合身，
這也靠我事先通風報信，將小黑的尺寸告訴了他的親生父母。
我的工作還沒有結束，小黑要我請客，將他的「雙方家長」都請到台中來，
我這個導師只好聽命，除了兩對爸媽以外，我還請了小黑的哥哥和他的親弟弟，
因為大家都是很真誠的人，宴會進行得十分愉快，我發現小黑的哥哥的確比他壯得多，
我又發現小黑的弟弟比他們白了太多，小黑好像感到這一點，
他說他還有一個綽號，叫做「非洲小白臉」，他顯然希望由此說來縮短他和弟弟間的距離。
小黑的帳戶中增加了很多錢，可是小黑的生活一如往常，只是週末有時北上台北，
有時南下屏東，他的親生母親一開始時每天打電話來噓寒問暖，他只好求饒，
因為同學們已經開始嘲笑他了。
大二暑假開始，小黑向我辭行，我問他暑假中要做什麼？
他說他要去做苦工，我暗示他可以不必擔心學費和生活費了，他說他一定要再去屏東，
和他哥哥在一起做一個暑假的苦工，他要讓他哥哥知道他沒有變，他仍是他的弟弟。
我知道屏東的太陽毒得厲害，在烈日之下抬磚頭、搬水泥，不是什麼舒服的事，
我有點捨不得他做這種苦工。
小黑看出了我的表情，安慰我，叫我不要擔心，他說他就是喜歡做苦工，
他還告訴我他做工的時候，向來打赤膊打赤腳，這是他最痛快的時候。
可是小黑沒有騙得了我，我知道小黑不是為了喜歡打赤膊、打赤腳而去做苦工的，
如果僅僅只要享受這種樂趣，去游泳就可以了，我知道他去做工，完全是為了要作一個好弟弟。
小黑大三沒有做工了，他是資訊系的學生，大三都有做實驗的計畫，
整個暑假都在電腦房裡，他自己說，他一定白了很多。
暑假快結束的時候，我看到小黑身旁多了一個年輕人，在他旁邊玩電腦，
我覺得他有點面善，小黑替我介紹，原來這就是他弟弟，可是我怎麼樣都認不出來了。
過去不是個白面書生嗎？現在為什麼黑了好多，也強壯多了？
小黑的弟弟告訴我，他已經打了兩個暑假的苦工，都是在屏東，兩個暑假下來，
他就永遠黑掉了，我忍不住問他，難道他也需要錢嗎？小黑的弟弟笑了，黝黑的臉，
露出了一嘴的白牙齒，他指著小黑對我說「我要當他的弟弟」。在烈日下做兩個暑假的苦工，
他真的當成小黑的弟弟了。
我們有選擇的權利，而每個選擇都是轉折。
小黑可以選擇回台北血緣父母的身邊；小黑的弟弟可以選擇做其他輕鬆的工作；
而他們的選擇，更加強了彼此間的聯繫，不單單是親情，還有選擇後面的智慧。
「好東西要跟大家分享，生命就該浪費在美好的事物上，當您遇見美好的事物時所要做的事，就是把它分享給您四周的人；這樣，美好的事物才能在這個世界上自由自在的散播開來....」
只要能道聲「再會」，就是幸福。如果能說「改天見」，就更加幸福。要是能說「好久不見」，就更加、更加的幸福了。

1:21 所以，你們要脫去一切的污穢和盈餘的邪惡，存溫柔的心領受那所栽種的道，就是能救你們靈魂的道。
Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
1:22 只是你們要行道，不要單單聽道，自己欺哄自己。
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
1:23 因為聽道而不行道的，就像人對著鏡子看自己本來的面目，
For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
1:24 看見，走後，隨即忘了他的相貌如何。
For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
1:25 惟有詳細察看那全備、使人自由之律法的，並且時常如此，這人既不是聽了就忘，乃是實在行出來，就在他所行的事上必然得福。
But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein , he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. deed: or, doing
1:26 若有人自以為虔誠，卻不勒住他的舌頭，反欺哄自己的心，這人的虔誠是虛的。
If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
1:27 在 神我們的父面前，那清潔沒有玷污的虔誠，就是看顧在患難中的孤兒寡婦，並且保守自己不沾染世俗。
Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
申命記 30 : 20 Deuteronomy 30 : 20
且愛耶和華─你的 神，聽從他的話，專靠他；因為他是你的生命，你的日子長久也在乎他。這樣，你就可以在耶和華向你列祖亞伯拉罕、以撒、雅各起誓應許所賜的地上居住。」
That thou mayest love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.

哈該書1-2章 啟示錄17章
妻子告訴我白天發生的一件事。我們的孫女艾蓮娜到我家玩，她玩了一些玩具之後，就想跑去房子的另一邊，此時妻子告訴她：「艾蓮娜，你得先把手裡的玩具放好才可以去。」她不假思索地說：「我沒有時間啊！」
艾蓮娜只有兩歲，所以她肯定沒有排滿事務的行程表，等著她去疲於奔命！
這使我想到，是不是有些時候，當上帝聽到我們對祂旨意的反應時，也會感到驚訝？
比方說，當耶穌說
馬太福音 11 : 28 Matthew 11 : 28
凡勞苦擔重擔的人可以到我這裡來，我就使你們得安息。
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
而我們卻說：「我活不下去，我有太多麻煩了！」我好奇祂會怎麼想。當祂說：
詩篇 46 : 10 Psalms 46 : 10
你們要休息，要知道我是 神！我必在外邦中被尊崇，在遍地上也被尊崇。
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
而我們嚷嚷：「我的行程表太滿了，我無法留時間給禰。」我好奇祂會怎麼想。當祂說
彼得前書 1 : 16 1 Peter 1 : 16
因為經上記著說：「你們要聖潔，因為我是聖潔的。」
Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
而我們說：「這世界看起來充滿樂趣。」我真的很好奇，面對我們的回應，祂會怎麼想呢？
上帝已經說了，如果我們要榮耀祂；尊榮祂為我們所做的一切；並表明我們有多愛祂，其最好辦法就是遵從祂的旨意。JDB
上主開口已預備我，
祂的聲音確實可聽；
我要樂意穩固順從，
平靜聽話順從主旨。Havergal
遵從上帝乃為了討祂喜悅。

靈命日糧 Daily Bread 2010-12-29
讀經 : 申命記 4 : 1~10 Deuteronomy 4 : 1~104:1 「以色列人哪，現在我所教訓你們的律例典章，你們要聽從遵行，好叫你們存活，得以進入耶和華─你們列祖之 神所賜給你們的地，承受為業。
Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them , that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers giveth you.
4:2 所吩咐你們的話，你們不可加添，也不可刪減，好叫你們遵守我所吩咐的，就是耶和華─你們 神的命令。
Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
4:3 耶和華因巴力毗珥的事所行的，你們親眼看見了。凡隨從巴力毘珥的人，耶和華─你們的 神都從你們中間除滅了。
Your eyes have seen what the LORD did because of Baalpeor: for all the men that followed Baalpeor, the LORD thy God hath destroyed them from among you.
4:4 惟有你們專靠耶和華─你們 神的人，今日全都存活。
But ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God are alive every one of you this day.
4:5 我照著耶和華─我 神所吩咐的將律例典章教訓你們，使你們在所要進去得為業的地上遵行。
Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as the LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go to possess it.
4:6 所以你們要謹守遵行；這就是你們在萬民眼前的智慧、聰明。他們聽見這一切律例，必說：『這大國的人真是有智慧，有聰明！』
Keep therefore and do them ; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.
4:7 哪一大國的人有 神與他們相近，像耶和華─我們的 神、在我們求告他的時候與我們相近呢？
For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon him for ?
4:8 又哪一大國有這樣公義的律例典章、像我今日在你們面前所陳明的這一切律法呢？
And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?4:9 「你只要謹慎，殷勤保守你的心靈，免得忘記你親眼所看見的事，又免得你一生這事離開你的心；總要傳給你的子子孫孫。
Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy sons' sons;
4:10 你在何烈山站在耶和華─你 神面前的那日，耶和華對我說：『你為我招聚百姓，我要叫他們聽見我的話，使他們存活在世的日子，可以學習敬畏我，又可以教訓兒女這樣行。』
Specially the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in Horeb, when the LORD said unto me, Gather me the people together, and I will make them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the days that they shall live upon the earth, and that they may teach their children.全年讀經:
撒迦利亞書9-12章 啟示錄20章 在早期，網際網路仍然是雜亂無章的時候，網路開發工程師都有各自的設定，結果造成了許多問題。例如：有些東西在這台電腦上的畫面很好，但是在另一台電腦卻完全無法顯示。對於這難操控的網際網路，工程師們把它比喻成早期美國西部的蠻荒之地，因為當時在那裡法律幾乎是不存在的。於是，為了讓雜亂無章的網路變得有秩序，工程師們開始彼此商議，擬定一套統一的規格。
這件事提醒了我們，為何當以色列人離開埃及時，訂立律例典章是如此重要（申命記4章1節）。如果沒有律例典章，以色列就會無法無天；反之，有了上帝的律法，他們就有了完善的系統能夠遵循，可以向別的國家顯示上帝的偉大（8節）。
今天，為了要在這個充滿罪性、自私和混亂的世界建立秩序，基督徒必須委身於基督的律法
加拉太書 6 : 2 Galatians 6 : 2
你們各人的重擔要互相擔當，如此，就完全了基督的律法。
Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
馬太福音 5 : 17 Matthew 5 : 17
莫想我來要廢掉律法和先知。我來不是要廢掉，乃是要成全。
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
當我們委身於基督的律法，同時愛他人就像上帝愛我們一樣，我們就能彼此以和平相待，這樣能讓這個世界看到上帝的崇高與偉大。JAL
上帝呼召我們向前，
耶穌寶血得以救贖；
彰顯祂愛活出生命，

因著我們對上帝和他人的愛，這個世界會知道上帝的偉大。
