Nov25【每日活水】用坚忍来赢得信/仰的路程

希伯来书12:1~13

主的管教
1 我们既有这许多的见证人,如同云彩围着我们,就当放下各样的重担,脱去容易缠累我们的罪,存心忍耐,奔那摆在我们前头的路程, 
2 仰望为我们信心创始成终的 YS 。他因那摆在前面的喜乐,就轻看羞辱,忍受了十/字/架的苦难,便坐在  SHEN 宝座的右边。 
3 那忍受罪人这样顶撞的,你们要思想,免得疲倦灰心。
4 你们与罪恶相争,还没有抵挡到流血的地步。 
5 你们又忘了那劝你们如同劝儿子的话,说:
我儿,你不可轻看主的管教,
被他责备的时候也不可灰心;
6 因为主所爱的,他必管教,
又鞭打凡所收纳的儿子。
7 你们所忍受的,是  SHEN 管教你们,待你们如同待儿子。焉有儿子不被父亲管教的呢? 
8 管教原是众子所共受的。你们若不受管教,就是私子,不是儿子了。 
9 再者,我们曾有生身的父管教我们,我们尚且敬重他,何况万灵的父,我们岂不更当顺服他得生吗? 
10 生身的父都是暂随己意管教我们;惟有万灵的父管教我们,是要我们得益处,使我们在他的圣洁上有分。 
11 凡管教的事,当时不觉得快乐,反觉得愁苦;后来却为那经练过的人结出平安的果子,就是义。
12 所以,你们要把下垂的手、发酸的腿挺起来; 
13 也要为自己的脚,把道路修直了,使瘸子不致歪脚,反得痊愈
1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, 
2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 
3 Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
God Disciplines His Children
4 In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood. 
5 And have you completely forgotten this word of encouragement that addresses you as a father addresses his son? It says,
“My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline,
and do not lose heart when he rebukes you,
6 because the Lord disciplines the one he loves,
and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son.”
7 Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as his children. For what children are not disciplined by their father? 
8 If you are not disciplined—and everyone undergoes discipline—then you are not legitimate, not true sons and daughters at all. 
9 Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits and live! 
10 They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in his holiness. 
11 No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.
12 Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees. 
13 “Make level paths for your feet,” so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed.

许多见证人如同云彩围绕着我们(1节):希伯来书11章的信心伟人们是没有见过 YS 的见证人,他们已经跑完了他们信心的旅程,如今在观众席中为仍在奔跑的我们加油鼓励。
卸下各样重担和紧紧缠累的罪(1节):“重担”指妨碍竞技者奔跑的衣服或包袱等负荷,“紧紧缠累的罪”指可能累赘我们、使我们掉入欲望陷阱的事物。这话是说我们要除去信/仰生活中的一切阻碍。
下垂的手、发酸的腿(12节):形容因为疲惫而几乎要放弃的状态

灵/修指南

SHEN 在信/徒偏离正路或是被欲望牵着走的时候,会透过管教来纠正。管教一般被理解为对犯错的惩罚,然而 SHEN 的管教有着更深的含义,即被 SHEN 管教是蒙 SHEN 所爱的孩子专有的待遇(7节)。 SHEN 责备人,不是因为恨恶或是厌烦他们,而是以父亲的心希望他们重回正路。我们若误会了这点,并因此灰心,就是没有正确理解天父的真心。管教的终极目的是为了让我们更深认识 SHEN 的旨意,使我们在他的圣洁上有份(10节)。信/徒经过管教和锻炼将结出义和平安的果子(11节)。也就是说,我们要以信心面对并胜过苦难,并借此更深认识 SHEN 的旨意。盼望我们明白,管教是 SHEN 爱我们的表现,就像那如同云彩围绕着我们的见证人一样,“仰望我们信心的创始成终者 YS ”,存心忍耐,靠着信心奔跑并得胜。
 

内室dao告

愿我明白管教是出自 SHEN 的爱,以信心和忍耐竭力奔跑前面的路程。
