信心的支票簿 Faith's check book

眾人的榜樣

經文: 「你們在我身上所學習的,所領受的,所聽見的,所看見的,這些事你們都要去行,賜平安的上帝就必與你們同在。」(腓立比書四︰9)

有了上帝的恩典,我們又能按著保羅的教訓行道,就可支取上帝同在的應許,這是多麼甘甜的祝福。甚至,我們知道祂是一切的源頭,有了上帝的同在,就像我們不但有了陽光,還擁有太陽本身。因此即使外在環境惡劣紛擾,但賜平安的上帝必會降下彼此諒解的靈,讓我們在仇恨之處撒下寬恕的種子,做個和平之子。

通往真理的道路上,可以找到真正的平安。若我們想推動和平卻離開公義的原則,那就錯了。先要有清潔無虧的良心,才有和平可言,這是智慧的次序。讓我們謹記保羅的教導,這樣,賜平安的上帝必與我們同在,就像祂與保羅同在一樣。


To Others an "Ensample"

Scripture: "Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in Me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you"(Philippians 4:9).

It is well when a man can with advantage be so minutely copied as Paul might have been. Oh, for grace to imitate him this day and every day!
Should we, through divine grace, carry into practice the Pauline teaching, we may claim the promise which is now open before us; and what a promise it is! God, who loves peace, makes peace, and breathes peace, will be with us. "Peace be with you" is a sweet benediction; but for the God of peace to be with us is far more. Thus we have the fountain as well as the streams, the sun as well as his beams. If the God of peace be with us, we shall enjoy the peace of God which passeth all understanding, even though outward circumstances should threaten to disturb. If men quarrel, we shall be sure to be peacemakers, if the Maker of peace be with us.
It is in the way of truth that real peace is found. If we quit the faith or leave the path of righteousness under the notion of promoting peace, we shall be greatly mistaken. First pure, then peaceable, is the order of wisdom and of fact. Let us keep to Paul's line, and we shall have the God of peace with us as He was with the apostle.
