可移动的祭坛

Jul 8, 2024

“整座坛都用木板制成,坛是中空的。”(出埃及记27:8)

会幕里的祭坛,是用来摆放献给上帝祭物的地方。关于如何制作这个祭坛,上帝有明确的指示:“整座坛都用木板制成,坛是中空的。”如果用石头或金属制作,祭坛就会太沉以致无法搬动;而中空的木板祭坛可以用杆抬着与以色列人一起上路。可移动祭坛的图像提醒我们,作为当地教会的一员,你并不受限于固定的地方敬拜上帝。你可以随时随处敬拜上帝——“常常开口以颂赞为祭献给上帝,这是承认主名的人所结的果子。”(希伯来书13:15)在家里、职场、商店、健身房、课室等地方,你的日常活动都能够成为“蒙上帝悦纳的灵祭。”(彼得前书2:5)通过分享鼓励的话语、尽己所能帮助有需要的人,或凭着正直而非基于热门去做职业决定,你都是在尊荣上帝。耶稣说:“你们的光也应当照在人面前,好让他们看见你们的好行为,便赞美你们天上的父。”(马太福音5:16)一位作家说:“主是我的上司。祂对我进行审查、评论、晋升、降职。祂给我提供福利计划和健康保障。祂可以调动我,改变我的职责,设立我的目标。我只需要向祂汇报。我的任务改变时,必要的工作并不改变。祂指示我做祂的工作,无论祂安排我在任何位置,我都做祂的器皿。”
