当主耶稣开始传道时他说:“天国近了,你们应当悔改,”彼得被圣灵充满,第一篇讲道也是从悔改开始。When Jesus began His ministry, He said, "The kingdom of heaven is near. Repent." Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, began his first sermon by emphasizing repentance.圣灵来了,就要叫世人为罪,为义,为审判,自己责备自己。When the Holy Spirit comes, He convicts the world of guilt in regard to sin and righteousness, and judgment(John 16:8).彼得面对众人发出的问题,他没有指责和定罪,而是被圣灵引导把人带入悔改的盼望,神的道是活泼的,是有功效的,能够使人扎心悔改,为罪痛悔,并且奉耶稣基督的名受洗。When faced with questions from the crowd, Peter, guided by the Holy Spirit, led them towards repentance. The living Word of God is powerful and effective, stirring hearts to genuine repentance and leading them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ.
世人都犯了罪,亏缺了神的荣耀,行了神眼中看为恶的事,把神所差来的独生爱子钉在了十字架上,然而神有丰富的怜悯,借这爱子的血得蒙救赎,过犯得以赦免,他因爱我,用自己的血使我脱离罪恶,他为我的过犯受害,为我的罪孽压伤。因他受的刑罚,我得平安;因他受的鞭伤,我得医治。All have sinned and fallen short of God's glory, doing what is evil in His sight, even crucifying God's beloved Son. Yet, God's abundant mercy provided redemption through the blood of His Son, forgiving our sins. He loved us and freed us from sin by His blood, He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for ouriniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on Him,and by His wounds we are healed. (Isaiah53:5)
主啊,感谢你不离不弃的大爱,多少次我偏行己路,是你把我从罪恶中挽回,从迷茫中唤醒,圣灵深触我心,当我死在过犯罪恶之中,你叫我活过来。Lord, I thank You for Your unfailing love. Many times I wandered, but You rescued me from sins and awakened me from confusion. The Holy Spirit touched my heart deeply, bringing me back to life from sins and transgressions.主啊,我的心要归向你,眼目喜悦你一切的道路,每天在行审判的路上等候你,悔改归正,结出果子来,与悔改的心相称。My heart turns to You; I delight in Your ways and await Your justice daily. I repent and produce fruits worthy of repentance.
主啊,感谢你赐下圣灵,因着耶稣的宝血使我得称为义;Thank You, Lord, for sending the Holy Spirit, and through Jesus' precious blood, declaring me righteous.圣灵啊,欢迎你运行在我们当中,用圣灵与火为我们施洗,每时刻话语浇灌在这地,扎我们的心,看到自己的罪和亏欠,转离自己的恶行,分别为圣,以圣洁的装饰为衣,甘心牺牲自己,纪念你,为那真道打那美好的仗。Welcome Holy Spirit to work among us, baptizing us with Your fire, watering us with Your words every moment, piercing our hearts, revealing our sins and transgressions,turning us away from evil, sanctifying us, clothing us with holiness, willingly sacrificing ourselves in remembrance of You, and fighting the good fight for the truth.
