苦難對我們有益處嗎?
By TC Lo (盧天賜); April 30, 2012 苦難不是難題. 義人為甚麼也會受苦呢? 這才是難題. 惡人為甚麼會平順呢? 這也是難題. 為甚麼遵行父神旨意的人也會受苦呢? 更是難題. 這使我想起耶穌在十架上所說的一句話, “我的神!我的神!為甚麼離棄我?”(太27:46; 可15:34). 讓我們再沉思, 求主幫助我們真正明白衪所經歷的苦難. 為何神的兒子會如此禱告呢? 忽然間, 一個清晰的真理焦點呈現在眼前. 想起耶穌喊出那些字句的時刻, 不但正是衪感到孤寂淒涼的高峯, 更重要的是衪正在遵行父神旨意的核心的最高峯. 對 “行天父旨意的人也會受苦嗎?” 的難題獲得一點線索. 這個頓悟可以把我的思想帶到我們人生最底潮求死的時刻. 當我們以為神遠遠的離棄我, 神却正在與我們會面, 因為衪曾經歷與我一樣 (其實是更甚) 的苦難. 那是一個生命的約會, 而非死亡的約會. 在網路上可找到一段新聞論及一位三歲大名叫Gabby Gingras的女孩子, 她住在Minnesota 州一個名叫Elk … Continue reading
神公平嗎?
By TC Lo 盧天賜 (revised April 21, 2012) 天堂內有無層次之區分? 這是經常被問的問題 (FAQ—Frequently Asked Question) 之一. 藉着這等次之別, 是否某些基督徒, 由於他們一生的善行, 與那些在臨終前勉強過關的基督徒相比, 可以在天堂內獲得較高的地位或更優等的存在質素? 也許神學家史鮑爾 (R.C. Sproul) 的答案會出人意外. 他認為天堂中的獎賞的確有程度上不同的. 他不但相信天堂的獎賞有分別, 他同時也相信地獄的刑罸的嚴厲性也有分別. 這個問題之存在可能是由於改革宗 (Protestant) 所強調的 “因信稱義” 的教義所至. 我們不斷地被提醒: 我們的好行為絕不能作我們進天堂的依據, 而唯一能進天國的途徑是藉相信基督, 使祂的功德 (merits) 歸到我們身上. 我們強調這個基礎教義到一個程度使人不知不覺地傾向一種想法, 以為好行為是無足輕重的和對基督徒將來的生命是全無關聯的. 但歷史性的改革宗是把 … Continue reading
浪子回頭的故事 (The Life-Defining Moment)
By T.C. Lo (盧天賜); April 12, 2012 It was February 9, 1881. Lying on his deathbed, his last request was that someone would read a Bible story to him. He was Fyodor Dostoevsky, one of the most influential Russian novelists of … Continue reading
徹底的悔改
By TC Lo 盧天賜 (April 9, 2012) 悔改包括5個因素: 知罪, 認罪, 求主赦免, 遠離罪, 不再犯罪. 大部分基督徒只做到頭三項, 以至我們的悔改不夠徹底. 但保羅的歸正是非常徹底的. 我想這是他大大被主所用的原因. 從腓立比書第三章, 我們可以看到保羅悔改後的改變 (Note 1): • 在基本信仰上: 由靠行為得救變為因信稱義 (v.9) • 在生活方向上: 由條文主義變為內在化 (v.3) • 在人生動力上: 由靠肉體變為靠主 (v.4 and v.1) • 在價值觀念上: 由 “有益” 變為 … Continue reading
