Was the Lord talking about being fit to serve Him or fit for everlasting life

基督徒看起来与众不同吗?

一位读者给我发了一段格里尔(J. D. Greear)牧师讲雅各书2章的视频。在这段信息中,格里尔评论雅 2:13,他说:”你不可能得到神赦免你的罪时所给你的怜悯,却不怜悯别人”(见此处 25:45)。他接着举了一个例子:一个人被一辆 18 轮汽车碾过,却毫发无损。他说这是不可能的。他说:”你不可能被那种力量撞到还毫发无损”(27:45)。他的意思是,一个人不可能被上帝的拯救之力击中而保持不变。重生的人与未得救的人在外表和行为上都是不同的。 他说得对吗? 重生的人看起来不一样吗? 你能通过观察一个人几个小时来判断他是否重生了吗? 你能通过观察自己几个小时来判断自己是否重生了吗? 所有这些问题的答案都是 “不能”。不能保证重生的人与未信者看起来有什么不同。 我们怎么知道呢? 《圣经》告诉了我们。 保罗斥责哥林多的信徒,因为他们中的许多人仍然过着与哥林多的非信徒一样的生活: “因为你们仍是属肉体的。你们中间有嫉妒、纷争、分裂的事,岂不是属肉体的,行为像凡人吗?(林前 3:3)。希腊文中没有 “凡人 “一词。他们的行为像属血气的人(林前 2:14)。他们的行为像不信的人。 圣经中没有任何应许说信徒看起来与众不同。 如果你把自己的行为作为得救的依据,你就永远不会有得救的保证。你将终生追求。这将是一个不可能实现的梦想。为什么?因为信徒有罪(罗 3:23;约一 1:8、10)。我们都亏缺了神的荣耀。 J.D. Greear 是一位出色的演讲者。他热情洋溢,吸引听众。然而,他坚持 “主权救恩”(Lordship Salvation),这在他的讲道中体现得淋漓尽致。他说,要重生,你必须把生命交托给基督,离弃你的罪,跟随基督。i […]
