 454 中翻英 (154)


七月十一日

「人种的是什么,收的也是什么。」(加   6:7   新國際版

神向著祂儿女們所做的實際對付,都是照著祂自己獨特的原則,而這些原則是真實而准确的表明祂的道路和法則。我們的罪,豈不是已在基督里得蒙赦免了嗎?從今以后,我們的特權乃是在神手中接受祂各方面慈繩愛索的管理,這一切的法則,是神所規定的,好叫我們在偶爾偏离正路之際,便立刻獲得回頭是岸的警告。這件事的意義,常表明我們今日所遭遇的,是直接与我們的往事有關。換言之,我們是在收割我們已往所播种的。我們曾否向別人施恩惠?如果有,那么恩惠必定加添給我們。我們曾否批評別人的行動?如果有,遲早我們會發現自己所做的,正是我們所批評那類的事——我們在收取對別人批評的后果。因為我們用什么量器量給人,神也必用什么量器量給我們。「如果你知道你弟兄的錯誤在哪里,那你也該知道自己的錯誤在哪里!」這是一個原則。神的道路不是嚴厲的,因這是愛的道路。祂測量好了才給我們,為要叫我們得著一切可能的保障。我們歡喜接受神的道路,就可以逃避許多看不見的危險。

"What a man sows, he reaps." (Galatians 6:7 NIV)

God's practical dealings with His children are according to His own unique principles, which are true and exact expressions of His ways and laws. Have not our sins been forgiven in Christ? From now on, it is our privilege to be in the hands of God to accept His merciful management in all aspects. All these laws are ordained by God, so that when we occasionally stray from the right path, we will be immediately warned to turn back. . The significance of this incident often shows that what happens to us today is directly related to our past. In other words, we are reaping what we have sown. Have we shown favor to others? If so, then grace must be added to us. Have we ever criticized the actions of others? If so, sooner or later we find ourselves doing exactly the kind of thing we criticize—we are reaping the consequences of criticizing others. Because with the measure we use for others, God will measure us with the same measure. "If you know where your brother is wrong, you should know where your own is!" That's a principle. God's way is not harsh, for it is the way of love. He has measured it and given it to us, so that we may have all possible security. We can escape many unseen dangers by gladly accepting God's way.
