口里认耶稣为主,心里信神叫祂从死里复活,就必得救。这是神的话。If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” This is God’s Word. 起初我们信耶稣,就是这么简单:“基督死”是为我们赎罪,“基督复活”把圣灵赐给我们,为叫我们称义得胜。When we first believed in Jesus, it was that simple: Christ died to redeem us from sin, and Christ rose again to give us the Holy Spirit so that we may be justified and victorious. 我们口里承认自己的罪,接受耶稣为主,心里相信耶稣所成就的救恩,我们就得着新生命,成为神的儿女。By confessing our sins, accepting Jesus as Lord, and believing in the salvation He accomplished, we receive new life and become children of God.
神从来没有说,我们做好一些,才能得救。这救恩不需要我们靠自己上天下地去找神,神从天降下来寻找拯救我们,这道今天正住在我们心里。God never said that we must first improve ourselves to be saved. This salvation does not require us to strive to reach God—God Himself came down to seek and save us. And this Word now dwells in our hearts. 起初我们因信得生,不是凭着行为。这信不是一次,而是一直地信,持续地信。为什么信主之后,我们却觉得这条路很难走?From the very beginning, we were saved by faith, not by our own works. This faith is not a one-time decision but a continuous, ongoing trust in God.Yet, why does the journey seem so difficult after believing in Christ?
我虽口里称耶稣为主,心里却依然自己当老大,让神照我的意思成就;Though I call Jesus “Lord” with my mouth, in my heart, I still act as my own master, expecting God to fulfill my will. 口里说耶稣从死里复活,遇到难处时,却惧怕、忧愁、自己想办法,心中没有神;Though I declare that Jesus rose from the dead, in times of trouble, I respond with fear, anxiety, and self-reliance, as if God were not there. 口里承认自己是罪人,心里却觉得我比从前好多了…Though I confess that I am a sinner, deep inside, I feel that I have improved and am now “better” than before. 主啊,原来我没有真的信你的话,又走在靠行为,靠自己,立自己的义的路上…Lord, I realize that I have not truly believed in Your Word. I have once again relied on my own efforts, seeking righteousness through my works rather than through faith.
主啊,我承认我试过了,靠自己无法除掉罪,救恩是你籍着十字架成就的,Lord, I admit that I have tried and failed—I cannot remove sin by my own strength. Salvation was accomplished by You through the cross. 我来求告你,每时每刻我仍需要你的拯救,我相信你死里复活的大能,I call upon You because I need Your deliverance every moment. I believe in the power of Your resurrection. 不是“我”为主做什么,而是“我”死了,让位给主耶稣,让圣灵来掌管我的心,It is not about what I can do for You, but about me dying to myself, surrendering to You, and allowing the Holy Spirit to rule in my heart. 作成神的工,活出不再是“我”,而是基督在我里面活的实际,使神得荣耀!May Christ live in me, so that my life is no longer about me, but about Him, bringing glory to God!(付传道Pastor Fu)
