提摩太後書三章15-17節
神的小僕人
經文:
15 並且知道你是從小明白聖經,這聖經能使你因信基督耶穌有得救的智慧。
16 聖經都是神所默示的,〔或作凡神所默示的聖經〕於教訓,督責,使人歸正,教導人學義,都是有益的。
17 叫屬神的人得以完全,預備行各樣的善事。
使徒保羅告訴我們,聖經是神所默示的,叫我們因信而得着得救的智慧。希伯來書的作者也告訴我們,因着信我們就明白宇宙(諸世界或眾世代)是因着神的話造成的。(參新譯本聖經希伯來書十一章3節)
許多人不相信聖經,甚至試著用各樣的方法,例如科學、歷史,人的哲學,去證明聖經的真理不是真實的。確實聖經不是一本歷史書,也不是一本科學或哲學書籍(但不違背),乃是神留給我們的話語。否定聖經就是否定我們的信仰,而相信聖經是相信神的話,靠着聖靈在我們心中給我們的印證,在生活中去經歷上帝和祂話語的真實與寶貴。
禱告: 天父上帝,謝謝祢賜下聖經-祢的話語,我們信,但信不足,求主幫助。求祢幫助我們喜愛讀聖經,並能持之以恆地閱讀,從中找到生命之道,並預備行各樣的善事。奉耶穌基督的名禱告,阿們。
2 Timothy 3:15-17
Many people try to dispute the reliability of the Bible. We use science, history and human philosophy to make us convince that it is not the Truth. Yet Paul told us the Bible is God-breathed truth that rebukes and corrects us. The writer of Hebrew also told us that through faith we believe that the world was created by the words of God.
Truly the Bible is not a book of history, of science or philosophy. It is a book of the words of God that He left for us. We cannot prove it but we can live through it and experience it. This perhaps is what faith is.
Lord thank You for leaving us Your words. We do believe and help us overcome our disbelief.
