史上最有魅力的人 (赛 53:2)

February 15, 2023 by Ken Yates in 聚焦恩典 - 人性, 成圣, 神性, 赛53
我最近和一位朋友聊天,他工作的事工叫做年轻生命(Young Life),是一个关注年轻人的机构。创始人是吉姆·雷伯恩(Jim Rayburn)。我朋友和我说,Jim在给年轻人分享之前总是先抓住他们的注意力。他会说,“耶稣基督是史上最有魅力的人。” 我猜听到这些开场白的青少年们都很惊讶。上了年纪的人通常会担心外表,而他们以前从未听说过这一点。他们可能认为耶稣是过去的一个宗教人物,并不是特别“酷”。(好吧,这是我们年轻时用的术语。也许雷伯恩时代的年轻人不这么说。)祂不是他们认为有吸引力的人。 但即使是年长的人也会想知道雷伯恩是什么意思。在《新约》里没有任何内容表明耶稣是一个特别英俊的男人。更重要的是,我们很多人都熟悉先知以赛亚对祂的评价: 他无佳形美容; 我们看见他的时候, 也无美貌使我们羡慕他。(赛53:2,作者斜体强调) 当然,雷伯恩对吸引力有另一种看法。他指的不是主清洁的皮肤、光滑的头发或美丽的眼睛。 最近,我读了一本由伊恩·麦克法兰(Ian McFarland)写的关于基督人性的书。它被称为“道成了肉身:道成肉身的神学(The Word Made Flesh: A Theology of the Incarnation.)”。麦克法兰的书讨论了耶稣如何完全是神,又完全是人,以及早期教会如何努力描述这意味着什么。约在主复活后400年,在迦克墩会议上被编成法典。麦克法兰解决的是正统的基督人性的教义是什么的问题。 麦克法兰认为,今天许多基督徒不理解教会在迦克墩会议所说的话。我们说一些异端的东西,却没有意识到。例如,我们把基督的两种性质混合在一起,说祂能在水上行走,能使死人复活,因为祂是神。相反,我们应该看到人类的耶稣基督所做的行为。我们不能看见神(约1:18),所以当我们看见耶稣的行为时,我们看见的不是神,而是人。 我必须承认书中有很多东西我不理解。当作者讨论一些事情的时候,他深入到一些我不知道的哲学概念和早期教会的某些争论。我不了解背景和概念。很明显麦克法兰的智商比我高得多。我不知道我在不自知的情况下说了多少关于主的异端的话。 但有一件事我知道:,我永远不能理解耶稣基督的伟大。当然,我可以说祂是完全的神,完全的人,永远存在的一个人。但是,这样的话语不足以描述祂。谁能在《新约》的页面上看到祂并认为他们已经找到了祂? 祂实在太伟大了。如果我可以用另一种方式说,祂实在是太美了。也许这就是雷伯恩的意思。 当不信主的人看祂的时候,他们看到的是那位赐给他们永生的神,如果他们相信祂,他们就永远不会失去永生。多漂亮啊? 信徒看着祂,就能明白我们想要更像祂(林后3:18)。如果我们是明智的,我们就会看到祂身上有一种美,那是无法用言语来形容的。我们想更像祂。我们在《圣经》上看祂的次数越多,我们就越能盼望有一天我们能真正与祂面对面。 当然这就是雷伯恩的意思。我们的救主是如此的伟大,以至于我们不能完全明白祂是多么的伟大。我们永远不会。即使如此,我们将永远同意祂是有史以来最有魅力的人。但我觉得还可以说点别的。随着永恒的流逝,祂对我们的吸引力会越来越大。

Utilizar lo que se nos ha dado (Rom 8:11)

February 14, 2023 by Ken Yates in Su Gracia Gratuita - Espíritu, Recompensas, Romanos 8:11, Santificación
Probablemente, todos hemos realizado una tarea sin darnos cuenta de que teníamos una herramienta para facilitarnos el trabajo. De hecho, al no utilizar esa herramienta, es posible que no hubiéramos podido terminar la tarea. Solo más tarde nos damos cuenta de que podríamos haber hecho el trabajo correctamente si hubiéramos aprovechado lo que teníamos en

Dalsze refleksje na temat czterech poziomów teologii Darmowej Łaski

February 14, 2023 by Bob Wilkin in Jedynie Wiara, czyli darmowa łaska w centrum uwagi
Otrzymałem wiele odpowiedzi na mój wpis na blogu dotyczący czterech poziomów teologii Darmowej Łaski. Zdaję sobie sprawę, że muszę odpowiedzieć na niektóre z tych komentarzy i pytań. J. H. pisze: Jestem zwolennikiem Darmowej Łaski i zgadzam się z Tobą na pierwszym poziomie. Nie zgadzam się z Tobą w wielu pozostałych, które wymieniłeś. Uważam, że drugi,

Ang Pinakanakabibighaning Personang Nahubhay Kailan Man (Isaias 53:2)

February 14, 2023 by Ken Yates in Ang Tinig ng Biyaya
Kamakailan nakausap ko ang isang kaibigang nagtatrabaho sa isang ministring tinatawag na Young Life. Ito ay isang samahang nakatuon sa mga kabataan. Ang tagapagtatag ay si Jim Rayburn. Sinabi ng kaibigan kong malimit simulan ni Rayburn ang kaniyang mga mensahe nang pahayag na umaagaw ng kanilang atensiyon. Sasabihin niyang, “Si Jesucristo ang pinakanakabibighaning Personang nabuhay

More Questions on the Age of the Earth

February 14, 2023 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Age of the earth, YEC
After I wrote a blog on the age of the earth (see here), I received a number of comments, which I will now address. First, my friend John told me he did not like me discussing the subject since he thinks it is not a Free Grace issue and is divisive. Second, Mark wondered if

Garantiert Gott, dass Er jedem, der Ihn kennenlernen möchte, das Evangelium bringt?

February 13, 2023 by Bob Wilkin in Freie Gnade im Brennpunkt
Bill las meinen jüngsten Blog über „mittleres Wissen“ und das Schicksal derer, die die rettende Botschaft nie gehört hatten (Siehe den Artikel: „Glaubt die Theologie der freien Gnade an ‘Mittleres Wissen’?”). Daraufhin stellte er diese ausgezeichnete Folgefrage: Manche Menschen denken, dass, wenn eine Person ein Gottesbewusstsein bekommt und den Wunsch hat, Ihn zu kennen, Gott

Conosci qualche ateo salvato?

February 13, 2023 by Bob Wilkin in Grazia Gratuita - Apostasia e Sicurezza Eterna, Ateismo e Sicurezza Eterna
Il giornale scolastico della Scuola Biblica Multnomah (ora Multnomah University) pubblicò un articolo affascinante al tempo in cui insegnavo lì (1986-1987). Si trattava di un’intervista ad un laureato della Multnomah che era diventato ateo. L’intervistatore chiedeva se, quando era alla Multnomah, aveva creduto che Gesù è Dio, che era morto sulla croce per i suoi

Наше виденье смерти искажено?

February 10, 2023 by Bob Wilkin in Бесплатный дар благодати - 1 Фесс 4:13-18, 2 Коринфянам 5:8, Что такое смерть
На недавней конференции задали вопрос о смерти Господа Иисуса Христа. Что случилось, когда Иисус умер? Был ли он по-настоящему мертв? Конечно, он был мёртв. Если бы Он не умер на кресте за наши грехи, и если бы Он не остался мертвым в течение трёх дней до воскресения, никто не смог бы обрести вечную жизнь (Ин

¿Tenemos una visión sesgada de lo que es la muerte?

February 10, 2023 by Bob Wilkin in Su Gracia Gratuita - 1 Tesalonicenses 4:13-18, 2 Corintios 5:8, Qué es la muerte
En una reciente conferencia surgió una pregunta sobre la muerte del Señor Jesucristo. ¿Qué pasó cuando Jesús murió? ¿Estaba realmente muerto? Bueno, por supuesto que estaba muerto. Si no hubiera muerto en la cruz por nuestros pecados, y si no hubiera permanecido muerto durante tres días antes de resucitar, nadie podría tener vida eterna (Juan
