上帝和祂的兒女

經文: 「耶和華以祂為贖罪祭,祂必看見後裔,並且延長年日。」(以賽亞書五十三:10)

我們主耶穌的死並非徒然;祂的死是一種犧牲,祂擔代我們的罪債,死在十架上,這成全了上帝公義的要求,而為上帝所接納,因此祂為那些信靠者的靈魂做贖罪祭。祂的死就像一粒麥子,落在地裡死了,就長出許多子粒來;因此必有許多得救的信徒,歸在耶穌的名下。祂說:「看哪!永在的父上帝,這就是'ㄘ瓟蝷W帝的兒女。」

人以他的兒女為榮,耶穌也以祂滿囊的箭袋為榮。人以子孫為香火的繼承,耶穌也以基督徒做為祂生命的延續,祂的形象也從信徒的人格言行中表彰出來。

耶穌今日活著,祂定睛在我們身上,以我們為樂,祂視我們為祂靈魂受死而結的果子,讓我們也因著祂能享受祂的豐收而高興。那曾經流淚撒種的,如今欣慰地坐看祂犧牲的結果,那些仰望祂的,也迎見祂的榮光,這是何等大的喜樂!


Christ and His Children

Scripture: "When Thou shalt make His soul an offering for sin, He shall see His seed"(Isaiah 53:10).

Our LORD Jesus has not died in vain. His death was sacrificial: He died as our substitute, because death was the penalty of our sins. Because His substitution was accepted of God, He has saved those for whom He made His soul a sacrifice. By death He became like the corn of wheat which bringeth forth much fruit. There must be a succession of children unto Jesus; He is "the Father of the everlasting age." He shall say, "Behold, I and the children whom Thou hast given me."
A man is honored in his sons, and Jesus hath His quiver full of these arrows of the mighty. A man is represented in his children, and so is the Christ in Christians. In his seed a man's life seems to be prolonged and extended; and so is the life of Jesus continued in believers.
Jesus lives, for He sees His seed. He fixes His eye on us, He delights in us, He recognizes us as the fruit of His soul travail. Let us be glad that our LORD does not fail to enjoy the result of His dread sacrifice, and that He will never cease to feast His eyes upon the harvest of His death. Those eyes which once wept for us are now viewing us with pleasure. Yes, He looks upon those who are looking unto Him. Our eyes meet! What a joy is this!
