聖經閱讀:以弗所書1:7-10 現代中譯本|合和本
2013年5月9日(四)
有些人認為,上帝不能也不會赦免他們,也許你認為自己並不配得上帝的赦免。 就算你做了很壞的事,上帝仍然可以赦免你。祂赦免你並不是因為你配得赦免,上帝赦免你是因為祂愛你。 聖經中有許多經節都提到了赦免,其中之一就是今天聖經閱讀的第7節:「由於基督的死,我們得到自由,我們的罪蒙赦免。這是出於上帝豐富的恩典。」其他一些提到「赦免」的經節有使徒行傳13:38-39、歌羅西書1:14、以及約翰一書1:9。 我鼓勵你讀這些經節並認識上帝的赦罪之恩。你要從你的罪回轉並請求上帝赦免你。上帝會幫助你為祂而活,並且會使用你的生命來榮耀祂。—GT 「所以,他必須在各方面與他的弟兄姊妹們相同,在上帝面前作他們仁慈而可靠的祭司,好使人的罪得到赦免。」 希伯來書2:17
禱告:天上的父,請赦免我的罪並幫助我接受祢的赦罪之恩。奉耶穌的名,阿們!

Forgiveness
Bible Reading: Ephesians 1:7-10
Thursday, May 9, 2013
Some people think that God can’t forgive them or that He won’t forgive them. Maybe you believe that you don’t deserve God’s forgiveness. God can forgive you, even if you have done very bad things. He does not forgive you because you deserve forgiveness. God forgives you because He loves you! There are many verses in the Bible that talk about forgiveness. One of those verses is verse 7 of our Bible Reading today. “In Christ we are made free by his blood sacrifice. We have forgiveness of sins because of God’s rich grace.” Some other Bible verses that talk about forgiveness are Acts 13:38-39, Colossians 1:14 and 1 John 1:9. I encourage you to read these verses and learn about God’s forgiveness. Turn from your sins and ask God to forgive you. God will help you live for Him and honor Him with your life. —GT “For this reason, Jesus...became like people so that he could be their merciful and faithful high priest in service to God. Then he could bring forgiveness for the people’s sins.” Hebrews 2:17
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, forgive my sins and help me accept Your forgiveness. In Jesus’ name. Amen. |
