饶恕,因为上帝已饶恕你

Apr 6, 2024

上帝的爱就这样显明了。(罗马书5:8)

在讲述当战俘的经历时,欧内斯特·高登(Ernest Gordon)谈到有一天收工后,卫兵发现一把铲子不见了。他坚持说是犯人偷走的,尖叫着要偷窃者站出来承认。他决定轮流枪杀战俘,直到有人承认。突然间一位苏格兰战士出列,立正,说:“是我偷的。”卫兵当场就打死了他,以泄怒气。其他战俘便收拾起尸体和工具回到营地。这时他们重新清点工具,发现一件都没丢。卫兵错了。有谁会为他人承担罪责呢?基督!“为义人死,是罕见的;为好人死,也许有敢做的;但基督却在我们还做罪人的时候为我们死!”(罗马书5:7-8)想想这个事情:“我们都像迷路的羊,各人偏行己路,但上帝却让祂承担我们众人的罪恶。”(以赛亚书53:6)因此,“在上帝和人类之间只有一位中保,就是……基督耶稣。”(提摩太前书2:5)中保能够调解分歧并且达成协议。在骷髅地,耶稣站在上帝的怒气和罪的惩罚之间。祂所活出的生命,是我们没有能力活出来的;祂担当我们本该承受的惩罚,借此赐给救恩,是我们不配受的。现在我们必须回答的问题是:既然祂是如此地爱我们,我们为什么不能彼此相爱?我们得到了祂的饶恕,为什么就不能饶恕他人?
