【可15:31】祭司长和文士也是这样戏弄他，彼此说：“他救了别人，不能救自己。” 【Mark 15:31】In the same way the chief priests and the teachers of the law mocked him among themselves. “He saved others,” they said, “but he can’t save himself!

耶稣那么有能力，行了那么多神迹，却被钉在十字架上。Jesus was so powerful and performed so many miracles, yet he was crucified on the cross.  围观的百姓、祭司长和文士，都在讥诮、嘲讽、戏弄耶稣。The onlookers, the chief priests, and the teachers of the law all mocked, ridiculed, and scorned Jesus. “他救了别人，不能救自己，如果他从十字架上下来，我们就信他”。"He saved others but can't save himself." "We will believe in him. If he comes down from the cross, we will believe in him." 我从前也是一样的想法：如果你是神，就给我钱、房、车、好工作…我就信你。I used to have the same idea: If You are God, then give me money, a house, a car, a good job...then I will believe in You.

我心中所想象的“神”，大有能力，可以救自己不受羞辱，不被钉死，可以灭了所有害祂的人！The "God" I imagined in my heart was powerful, able to save Himself from disgrace, not to be crucified, and to destroy everything that harmed Him! Not to be nailed to death, able to destroy all who harmed Him and crucify Him. 神的儿子耶稣，大有能力，却甘愿钉死自己，来救得罪祂、伤害祂、钉死祂的人。The Son of God, Jesus, has great power, yet He willingly allowed Himself to be crucified to save those who sinned against Him, harmed Him, and crucified Him. 

谁才是公义慈爱的神？Who then is the righteous and loving God? 高举“我”、“我要”是属撒但的性情。舍己、爱仇敌是神儿子的性情。To exalt “I” and “I want” is a satanic disposition. To exalt "myself" and say "I want" is the nature of Satan. To sacrifice oneself and love one's enemies is the nature of the Son of God. 主啊，求你赦免我信错了！Lord, please forgive me for believing You wrongly!

哪知祂为我们的过犯害，为我们的罪孽压伤。耶和华将我们众人的罪都归在了祂身上。But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities. The Lord laid upon Him the sin of us all. The Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all. 天父拯救的蓝图，耶稣舍命的行动，祭司长和众人不明白，连门徒也不明白。The chief priests and others did not understand Heavenly Father's blueprint for salvation and Jesus' act of sacrificing his life. Even the disciples did not understand.  耶稣在十字架上说：“父啊，赦免他们，他们所做的他们不晓得。”Jesus said on the cross, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing". 在我还作罪人，无知的时候，主就为我而死。爱，拯救了我。While I was still a sinner, and ignorant, the Lord died for me. Love saved me. 

主啊，谢谢你不救自己，为救我脱离罪恶、死亡和咒诅；Lord, thank You for not saving Yourself, but saving me from sin, death, and curse; 何等的恩典，我被你救回，何等感恩，使我遇见你！What grace it is that I am saved by You. How grateful I am to meet you , Lord! 主啊，我要为你活，求你掌管我，不再如神一样去判断，而是钉死自己，更多丧掉魂的生命，Lord, I want to live for You! Please guide me not to play God's role and judge others anymore, but to crucify the desires of the self, to let go more of my old life.  寻求你的旨意，活出爱的生命，见证十字架的智慧和大能，使更多的人来认识你，归向你。Help me to seek Your will, live out a life of love, so I may witness the wisdom and power of the cross, and attract more people to come and know You and turn to You.
