耶穌的寶血 (2)

耶穌的寶血對我們是重要的，因為它帶給我們赦罪之恩。今天我們要來看的經節告訴我們，血是必要的，好讓我們的罪可以得赦免。 　今天的經節談到摩西，以及上帝跟以色列人的第一個約定。上帝命令獻祭一頭牲畜好讓罪可以得赦免：「沒有流血，就沒有赦罪」（第22b節）。當耶穌來到世上、死在十架上並復活之後，上帝就跟人立了一個新約；根據這個約，上帝接受耶穌的死作為我們的贖罪祭。如果我們相信耶穌並遵守祂的話語，上帝就會赦免我們的罪並賜給我們與祂同在的永生。 　對我來說，思考耶穌的死是件困難的事；祂必須受苦、死去好讓我的罪可以得赦免，然而耶穌是心甘情願為你和我這麼做的！就去向人分享上帝的新約信息，去告訴他們上帝的赦罪之恩，以及祂的救恩禮物。 —JK 「彼得告訴他們：『你們每一個人都要悔改，並且要奉耶穌基督的名受洗，好使你們的罪得到赦免，你們就會領受上帝所賜的聖靈。』」 使徒行傳2:38 禱告：天父，謝謝祢透過耶穌的寶血使我可以擁有赦罪之恩。奉主的名，阿們！ (尤榮輝譯)

Jesus' Blood (2)
Bible Reading: Hebrews 9:16-22
Saturday, May 2, 2015

Jesus' blood is important to us because it gives us forgiveness. Today we will look at Bible verses that tell us that blood is necessary so our sins can be forgiven. 　Our Bible verses talk about Moses and the first agreement between God and the Israelites. God required that an animal be sacrificed so sins could be forgiven. “Sins cannot be forgiven without a blood sacrifice” (verse 22b). When Jesus came to earth, died on the cross and rose again, God made a new agreement with people. According to this agreement, God accepted Jesus' death as the sacrifice for our sins. If we believe in Jesus and obey God's Word, God will forgive our sins and give us eternal life with Him. 　It is hard for me to think about Jesus' death. He had to suffer and die so that my sins can be forgiven. But Jesus was willing to do this for you and me! Share the news about God's agreement with someone. Tell them about God's forgiveness and His gift of salvation. —JK “Peter said to them, ‘Change your hearts and lives and be baptized, each one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ. Then God will forgive your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.'” Acts 2:38 PRAYER: Father, thank You that I can have forgiveness through Jesus' blood. In His name. Amen.
