438 中翻英 (128) We must have the expieence of the reality of the Holy Spirit dewelling in us . 我們必須要有聖靈內住實存的經驗. 6/25/2023
「豈不知你們是神的殿,神的靈住在你們里頭么?」(林前 3:16 新國際版)
對于哥林多信徒的不圣洁,保羅所提出的救治乃是內住圣靈的啟示。他們的需要,也如同我們今天的需要,乃是掌握一個事實,就是神自己已經居住在他們里面。我們有許多人對于神的靈沒有真切的感覺。我們認為祂不過是一個影響力 — 無疑是一個好的影響力,但許多人僅僅是如此而已。在我們的思想中,良心和圣靈差不多是同樣的「東西」,當我們做錯了時,它被提醒責備,并企圖把我們帶回到正确的道路。我們的難處,就如哥林多信徒一樣,不是沒有神所賜內住圣靈的恩賜,而是對祂(圣靈)同在的實際,還缺少切身的感覺与經歷。我們沒有寶貴并享用那位在基本上是絕對圣洁的圣靈,祂現今在我們心里已經設立了祂的居所。

"Do you not know that you are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?" (1 Corinthians 3:16 NIV)
The revelation of the indwelling Holy Spirit was Paul's remedy for the unholiness of the Corinthian believers. It is to grasp the fact that God Himself already dwells in them for their need, like for ours today. Many of us have the Spirit of God no sense of reality . We think of him as nothing more than just an influence — a good influence no doubt, that is all about it. Conscience and the Holy Spirit are pretty much as the same "thing" in our minds. It is reminded us to rebuke as it is wrong to us, then it tries to bring us back on the right original place. The problem of our Corinthian believers is not what we do not have the gift of the in dwelling Holy Spirit bestowed by God, but what we still lack the personal feeling and experience of the reality of His (Holy Spirit) dewelling in us. We do not have cherished and enjoyed the essentially absolutely holy Holy Spirit. God has now made His dwelling place in our hearts.
