Il sangue versato da Cristo non garantisce forse che i santi glorificati non proveranno vergogna al Bema?

E ora, figlioli, rimanete in lui affinché, quando egli apparirà, possiamo avere fiducia e alla sua venuta non siamo costretti a ritirarci da lui, coperti di vergogna. (1 Giovanni 2:28). […]

Nu garantează sângele vărsat al lui Hristos că sfinții glorificați nu vor simți rușine la scaunul de judecată al lui Hristos?

基督所流的血,不能保证荣耀后的圣徒在基督的审判台前不会羞愧吗

“现在,小子们,你们要住在祂里面,这样,当祂显现的时候,我们就可以坦然无惧,并且在祂来的时候,不至于在祂面前羞愧。”(英文直译《约翰一书》2:28) 约翰告诉上帝的儿女,他们需要住在基督里面,以免“在祂来的时候,在祂面前羞愧”。约翰这句话是什么意思?这种事情真的可能发生吗?基督所流的血不是已经保证这种事情不会发生了吗? 约翰写信的对象是已经重生的人(《约翰一书》2:12-14、24-25),然而,他却警告他们,当基督再来的时候,他们可能会经历羞愧。 大多数信徒认为,因为基督所流的血,当我们在基督的审判台前受祂审判时(《哥林多后书》5:9-10),不可能有羞愧或悲伤。然而,《约翰一书》2:28以及许多其他经文都表明,在基督的审判台前,许多信徒将经历羞愧和悲伤(例如《马太福音》24:45-51;《路加福音》19:20-26;《哥林多前书》9:27;《哥林多后书》5:10;《加拉太书》6:9;《提摩太后书》4:6-10;《雅各书》5:9;《启示录》2-3章)。 普遍性的益处: 基督所流的血使每一个人、全世界的人都有得救的可能(《约翰福音》1:29)。 只限于所有信徒的益处: 这也意味着,一个人一旦相信基督而得永生,他的罪就得到了赦免(《使徒行传》10:43)。 只限于那些在光明中行走的信徒的益处: “但我们若在光明中行,如同祂在光明中……祂儿子耶稣的血也洗净我们一切的罪”(《约翰一书》1:7)。当然,只有当我们承认自己所知道的罪时,我们才能继续在光明中行(《约翰一书》1:9)。 然而,信徒并没有得到保证,可以避免今生的管教。如果我们走进属灵的“远方”,就会经历属灵上的饥荒,也可能经历身体上的苦难(《路加福音》15:11-32)。基督的宝血并没有让我们不必承担责任。 同样,信徒也没有得到保证,可以避免在基督的审判台前受到责备和羞愧。基督的宝血并没有使我们免受在基督的审判台前可能产生的负面后果。 保罗担心自己不能得到基督的认可(《哥林多前书》9:27)。我们都应当有这样的警醒。 许多人指责自由恩典立场助长放纵。事实恰恰相反。我们强调今生的责任,也强调今生之后在基督的审判台前所要承担的责任。 让恩典始终成为你的焦点,你就会专注于基督即将的再来,并且爱慕祂的显现,好叫有一天你听见:“好,你这又良善又忠心的仆人。” ___ 鲍勃·威尔金(Bob Wilkin)(达拉斯神学院神学硕士,博士)恩典福音派协会(Grace Evangelical Society)创始人及执行主任,聚焦恩典电台(Grace in Focus Radio)联合主持人。他同妻子莎伦(Sharon)住在德州高地村(Highland Village, TX)。鲍勃最新的书有《在一百节经文中的“单凭信心”(暂译)》(Faith Alone in One Hundred Verses)和《回转来活:悔改的力量(暂译)》(Turn and Live: The […]
