以弗所書二章8-10節
神的小僕人
經文:
8 你們得救是本乎恩,也因著信;這並不是出於自己,
9 也不是出於行為,免得有人自誇。
10 我們原是他的工作,在基督耶穌裡造成的,為要叫我們行善,
得救全是恩典,不是靠我們自己,也不是因著我們的好行為。 那麼信徒要有好行為嗎?當然!我們要有好行為, 禱告:
主耶穌,今天我們若仍以為自己可以靠好行為得著拯救,
Ephesians 2:8-10 We are redeemed through the blood of Jesus Christ our Lord, not because of our own good deeds. No one can boast over our good behavior for we are not saved by them. We can only humbly confess our sins, and through faith on the redemption of the cross, we are saved. Then why should Christians need to live a good life? It is because we are grateful for the salvation we receive freely and we willingly follow the Lord in the ways we live. We do not earn our salvation but we live according to the Lord who paid the cost of sins. In other words, christians first receive salvation and then live a good life. If we still believe we are saved by our good deeds, we need to think carefully again about the meaning of the Cross. |
