经文:
诗篇15
"谁能寄居你的帐幕? ……就是行为正直、作事公义……的人。" 诗15: 1-2 |
Scripture:
Psalm 15
"Who may dwell in your sanctuary? . . . Those whose walk is blameless, who do what is righteous . . . . " —Psalm 15:1-2 |

何谓神的帐幕呢? 也许我们很多人认为, 它只是教会这幢建筑物。但从最广泛的定义来说, 不论任何地方, 只要我们可以经历神, 那里就是神的帐幕, 它是我们心之所系的地方。在主日, 教会这幢建筑物成为神的子民聚集的地方, 也是圣灵的殿（哥林多后书6: 16; 彼得前书2: 5）。在那里, 我们得到力量, 在神的帐幕以外这个辽的世界, 去展开一周的工作, 去过服侍神的一周。 诗篇第15篇提醒我们, 神并不喜悦祭祀, 却喜悦人在生活上遵行祂的道。当我们天天与神同行, 就会行正事, 说诚实话, 拒绝毁谤人, 也不会做任何伤害邻舍的事。还有, 我们不会欣赏喜欢行恶或嘲笑神的人, 我们也会尊敬忠心事奉神的人。即使在生活中受伤, 我们仍会持守承诺, 赒济贫穷人, 保护无辜者, 不贿赂, 不欺诈, 不沾染任何作奸犯科的事。 当我们能过诗人所描绘的生活, 就是经历神的同在。这情况不但在教会聚会中发生, 也在我们的日常生活中发生。即使有百般试炼在我们脚下要动摇我们, 但遵行主道的人, 是一个不致被动摇的人! |
What is God's sanctuary? Probably too many of us think of it only as a church building. In its widest, richest sense, God's sanctuary is wherever we experience God. It is the place where our heart is. On Sunday a church building becomes a sanctuary as God's people gather and make up the building blocks of God's spiritual temple (2 Corinthians 6:16; 1 Peter 2:5). There we are strengthened for another week of work, another week of serving God—out in the sanctuary of God's vast world. Psalm 15 reminds us that what pleases God is not rituals but a life that seeks to live God's way. When we walk with God on a daily basis, we will do what is right, speak the truth, refuse to slander others, and not harm our neighbors in any way. What's more, we won't be impressed by people who delight in doing wrong or in mocking God, and we will honor those who faithfully serve God. We will keep our promises, even when it hurts. And we will help the poor and protect the innocent, taking no part in bribery, fraud, or other corruption. When we live as the psalmist describes, we experience God's presence. This happens not only in church gatherings but also in our everyday activities. Those who live God's way are building a life that cannot be shaken—regardless of the way uninvited trials can try to shift the ground under our feet! |
祷告主啊, 求祢帮助我们时刻愿意进入祢的帐幕, 经历祢的同在, 活出一个合祢心意的生活 —— 而且在百般试炼的人生中, 仍不动摇。奉耶稣名求, 阿们。 |
PrayerLord, help us to enter your sanctuary and experience your presence by living as you want us to—not only on Sundays but every day of our lives. In Jesus' name, Amen. |
今天经文： 诗篇151 耶和华啊, 谁能寄居你的帐幕? 谁能住在你的圣山?2 就是行为正直、做事公义、 心里说实话的人。 3 他不以舌头谗谤人, 不恶待朋友, 也不随伙毁谤邻里。 4 他眼中藐视匪类, 却尊重那敬畏耶和华的人。 他发了誓, 虽然自己吃亏也不更改。 5 他不放债取利, 不受贿赂以害无辜。 行这些事的人必永不动摇。 回到页顶 |
