James 1:20 - 怒氣

-


From Kwan Tai Chun

人的怒气并不成就神的义(雅1:20)。

有些基督徒，在教会生同工的气,回到家生孩子的气,开车上路生前面那个开慢车的气,天下雨我们生气,在路上摔了一跤生气,看电视广告多也生气……

这样，我们岂不是太给神“丢脸”了吗？动不动就生气，甚至还敢向神生气！

记住第一个向神生气的该隐的教训！神悦纳了他弟弟亚伯的祭物，没有验中他的祭物，他就“大大地发怒，变了脸色”，耶和华对他说：“你为什么发怒呢？你为什么变了脸色呢？你若行的好，岂不蒙悦纳？你若行的不好，罪就伏在你的门前。它必恋慕你，你却要制伏它。”（创4:5-7）

神今天也要问你：你为什么变了脸色呢？不要用你的拳头和舌头来解决问题，要跪下祷告神,用膝盖。靠着那加给你力量的主，你一定行！

你可能会讲：打死“蜘蛛”，就没有蜘蛛网了；找出“约拿”扔到海里，就风平浪静了。“蜘蛛”和“约拿”就是隐藏在我们里面惹事的祸根。先从里面下手，把自己的生命操练的棒棒的，与主的关系深深的，任凭12级的台风来，也搅动不了你！

Subject: "Should I Forgive A Brother Who Won't Repent?" Speaker: Don Blackwell Scripture: Luke 17:1-3 Website: https://www.willowcofc.net/ Willow Avenue Church of Christ Video: https://www.youtube.com/live/G0CwQfl3YMo?si=Y5PyqjXAxuOiTVX8 Then Peter came to Jesus, and he said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him.  Up to seven times? Jesus said to him, I do not say to you up to seven times, but up to 70 times seven.  (Mt 18:21-22). Brethren, I want to suggest to you this morning that questions about forgiving a brother who has sinned against you is not a new thing. They existed even when the Lord was on this earth. And they are troubling enough that one of the apostles felt the need to come and ask Jesus directly about it. How frequently should I forgive my brother? I mean, my patience runs out sometimes. I mean, sometimes enough is enough. Where do I draw the line? Peter said, is seven times enough? You know, I've got the idea that Peter...

Together: Forgive One Another

From:  Brent Kercheville - West Palm Beach church of Christ False Understanding of Forgiveness In our culture, forgiveness is a unilateral internal effort to get my own emotions under control. It is a therapeutic view of forgiveness. Forgiveness is about me. We see this in the way the word “forgiveness” is used. For example, we will hear people say that you need to forgive yourself. This does not make sense using the word biblically. The scriptures never say to forgive yourself. But what people mean about forgiving yourself is this unilateral internal effort to get your own emotions under control and move yourself to some sort of happy place. This is not a biblical view but you can see why there is confusion when we discuss forgiveness from a biblical basis.  Another example of this misunderstanding of forgiveness is that you will hear people say that they have forgiven God or cannot forgive God. This is also nonsensical and ultimately blasphemous since God cannot do wrong and...
