遠離

遠離
聖經閱讀：馬太福音27:45-49 現代中譯本|合和本
2015年4月3日(五)

充滿罪惡的人常常忽視上帝並且跟上帝斷絶關係，他們不讀經、不禱告，也不敬拜上帝。這些人就是不理會上帝。 　上帝愛世人，當人們忽視祂，或是說祂的壞話時，上帝會傷心難過，但是不用擔心──上帝會沒事的。問題是，如果人們遠離上帝，最後上帝也會遠離他們，這時候，情況就不一樣了！因為沒有上帝，人是沒辦法存活的。 　羅馬書1:21-32談到不敬拜的人會發生什麼事：如果這些人繼續犯罪，上帝最後會任憑他們去做惡事。 　當耶穌死去時，祂將我們的罪一同帶到十字架上，上帝看著耶穌，看見原本聖潔完美的愛子被可怕的罪弄髒了，於是上帝離開耶穌一陣子。這是多麼可怕的事！ 　不可過著沒有上帝的生活，要停止犯罪，要努力做對的事並且要敬拜上帝，這樣上帝就會永遠與你同在。 —DK 「上帝任憑他們隨著心裏的慾念做下流的事，彼此玷污自己的身體。」 羅馬書1:24a 禱告：親愛的上帝，我願永遠與祢同在。奉耶穌的名，阿們！ (王熙瑤譯)

Alone
Bible Reading: Matthew 27:45-49
Friday, April 3, 2015

Often sinful people ignore God and separate themselves from Him. They don’t read the Bible. They don’t pray, and they don’t worship God. These people just leave God alone. 　God loves people. God hurts when people ignore Him or speak against Him. But, don’t worry — God is okay. The problem is that if people leave God alone, finally God will leave them alone. Now, that’s a different story! People cannot survive without God. 　Romans 1:21-32 talks about what will happen to people who don’t worship God. If these people keep doing those sins, God will finally leave them alone to do their sinful things. 　When Jesus died, He took our sins to the cross. God looked at Jesus and saw that His perfect Son was dirty with terrible sin. God left Jesus alone for a while. How terrible! 　Don’t live without God. Stop sinning, try to do right and worship God. Then God will always be with you. —DK “People wanted only to do evil. So God left them and let them go their sinful way.” Romans 1:24a PRAYER: Dear God, I want to always be with You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
