耶穌說:「我實實在在的告訴你們,那聽我話,又信差 我來者的,就有永生;不至於定罪,是已經 出死入生了」。 ━聖 經 唯一的生路 你有沒有想過一個在生命中最嚴肅的問題━「死」。 誰都知道,每個人一出世便向着墳墓前進。有人曾說:「死是無情的,它隨時都會降臨到世上每一個人,雖然誰都不歡迎它,但它仍然隨時會登門拜訪;當這位殘忍的訪客過後,遺下給人的便是悲傷、哀慟、難過和無法填補的創傷!」 雖然,現在我們還未遇見這位殘忍的訪客。可是,無情的歲月,暮去朝來,我們的生命就這樣在日光之下消耗;這必朽壞的身體,總有一天會完結的。 生死是人間的一個大奧秘,沒有人知道活生生的人為何將來要死?死了又到那裏去?但我們從神啟示的聖經中就得到了答案: 原來死,不但是身體的事,也牽涉到靈魂滅亡的大問題。人類必死的原因是「世人都犯了罪,罪的工價乃是死。」因為,人們活在神所創造的宇宙中,倚靠神所賜的生命、氣息、空氣、陽光、雨露、食物......等等,我們才得以生存,我們除了自己用思想勞力外,生存的條件,不論直接或間接都需要神所創造的萬物。可是,無知的人們故意不認識神,棄絕生命的主宰,偏行已路,心地剛硬無知,不要神,一天天地走近地獄的邊緣,還自以為聰明。故此,整個世界的人快被自己所行的罪惡毀滅了! 罪不只使人今生痛苦,並且也使人永遠受刑罰。創造你我的神,在聖經中向世人宣告說:「惟有膽怯的、不信的、可憎的、殺人的、淫亂的、行邪術的、拜偶像的和一切說說話的,他們的份就在燒着硫磺的火湖裏,這是第二次的死。」啟21:8 上面寫了一大堆叫人絕望的話,希望你不要灰心,因為神極愛我們,祂成了肉身,取了人的形像來到世上,祂就是基督徒所敬愛所倚靠的救主━耶穌基督,祂當時在世,以祂的權能,征服了疾病、死亡和自然,這表明祂就是生命和宇宙的主宰。凡被罪惡捆鎖的人來到祂面前,都得着同情、憐憫、拯救、醫治和釋放。最後,祂讓人把自己釘在十字架上,目的是承擔全人類的罪過,以無罪的代替有罪的,叫那些信靠祂而悔改歸正的人都得着生命,與神和好,脫離死亡的權勢而得永恆的生命。 耶穌是生命的主,死亡不能拘禁祂,祂被埋葬後第三日便從墳墓中復活,四十天後祂在今日的以色列國橄欖山上,在眾目睽睽下升天。當時,祂還應許會再回來,接信祂的人到祂那裏去。『我聽見從天上有聲音說:「......在主裏面而死的人有福了」聖靈說:「是的,他們息了自己的勞苦......。」』(啟14:13) F如果你未曾信靠這位愛你的主,我今日呼天喚地向你作見證,將生、死、禍、福陳明在你面前,請你揀選生命,信靠救主耶穌基督而得脫離死亡的權勢。 |

Jesus said: “I tell you the truth, whoever
hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal
life and will
not be condemned; he has crossed over from
death to life.”
━HOLY
BIBLE The Only Way Out Have you ever pondered on the question of DEATH? We all know that every one of us proceeds toward death as
soon as we are born. Death is described as merciless, because it can attack
anyone without notice. Death is never welcome, as it leaves behind sorrow,
misery, agony and wounds that never heal. Although we have not yet run into this relentless visitor,
our bodies are destined to wither and decay in the course of time. Life and death are great mysteries. No one can fully explain
why a living person full of pep and energy will have to die. Yet there is an
answer in the Bible, a book inspired by God. Death concerns not only our physical bodies, but also our
souls. People have to die, ‘‘For all have sinned,......and
the wages of sin is death.” People live in the universe created by God and
rely directly or indirectly on the things created by God for life. However,
ignorant men deliberately choose to turn their backs on the Lord of Life,
preferring to walk their own way with a hardened heart. They are drawing near
to the edge of hell without realizing it. The whole world will soon be
destroyed because of the evil things that fill it. A person’s sins cause him not only to suffer while living
but also to be punished in eternity. God your Creator declares in the Bible: “But for the cowardly and unbelieving and
abominable and murderers and immoral person and sorcerers and idolaters and
all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone,
which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) The above may cause you despair,
but please do not lose heart. God loves us so much that He became flesh,
taking the form o f a man to come to earth. He is the Savior adored and
trusted by all Christians. He is Jesus
Christ. When He was living on earth, He healed the sick, vanguished
death and had full dominion over nature. These confirm the fact that He
Himself is Life and Lord of the universe. Those under the bondage of sin were
attracted to Him and received from Him compassion, mercy, salvation, healing,
and freedom. But in the end, He allowed men to nail Him on the cross so that
He could bear upon Himself all the sins of mankind. Thus the One who knew no
sin became sin in order that all who trust in Him and repent of their sins
will have eternal life and become reconciled with God as well as being freed from
the power of death to enjoy life everlasting. Jesus is the Lord of Life and cannot be
held by death. He was buried, but was raised up again on the third day. Forty
days later on the FIf you have not yet trust in the Lord who loves you so much, please take heed. Trust in the Savior Jesus Christ and you will be delivered out of the power of death into eternal life. |
