加拉太書二章19-21節
神的小僕人
經文:
19 我因律法,就向律法死了,叫我可以向神活着。
20 我已經與基督同釘十字架,現在活着的不再是我,乃是基督在我裏面活着;並且我如今在肉身活着,是因信神的兒子而活;他是愛我,為我捨己。
21 我不廢掉神的恩;義若是藉着律法得的,基督就是徒然死了。
保羅看見加拉太的弟兄姊妹,又走回靠行律法稱義的生活,
今天我們誇口什麼? 還以我們為神作什麼誇口,就是未能明白十字架的救恩。
先是得著恩典,之後才因着感恩,靠著內住在我們裡面的聖靈,
禱告:
親愛的主耶穌,我們為十字架的救恩感謝祢,但這是奧秘,
Galatians 2:19-21
The Galatians had turned back to rules and laws, forgetting salvation came from the grace and mercy of our Lord Jesus on the cross. Paul therefore reminded them that our old selves had been crucified with Jesus and now we are living according to the grace of Jesus who died for us on the cross.
So what can we boast today, are we still relying on our deeds not the work of Christ? We are all saved by grace not by deeds. Yet receiving grace, we should live a life worthy of our call and the salvation of our Lord.
Grace is the basis of our salvation, living according to the laws are acts of thanksgiving. This is our belief.
