No Comments 也许有很多人不知道基督徒将来会不会再经历神的审判…
如果基督徒将来还要经历审判，那十字架是什么？十字架就是神对我们的审判，已经结束了，判的是死刑，因为 “罪的代价乃是死”。关键是走上十字架的不是我们，而是耶稣。耶稣替我们受了刑罚。那些以信心与耶稣一同死过的人，是受过审判的人，是没有罪的人。“我们若是与基督同死，就信必与他同活。” 将来基督徒面对的不是审判，而是主的审问，就是每个人都要面对主耶稣基督向他交账。

Default No Comments ——R. A. Torrey 叨雷《如何得丰富的能力》(How to obtain fullness of power)
“神说了一次两次，我都听见，就是能力都属乎神” (诗 62:11)。能力最大的储藏所是属乎神，这储藏所就是他自己的话——圣经。如果我们要它成为我们的，我们必须就近这书。教会中有很多人想要求属灵的能力，可是却忽略了圣经。他们很想在他们的生活上结果子，却忘了基督耶稣的话说：”种子就是神的道” (路 8:11)。他们很希望有能力融化那冰冷的心，折服那顽梗的意志，却忘记神的话说：”我的话岂不像火，又像能打碎磐石的大锤吗” (耶 23:29)？
如果我们要在我们的生活上，工作上，得丰富的能力，我们必须以神的话当食物，没有一种别的食物有如此的力量，如果我们没有功夫读圣经，我们就不能有能力，正如我们没有功夫吃饭，身体不能有能力一样。
我曾见过不少的男女，他们并没读过什么书，但他们知道圣经，我宁愿坐在他们的脚前听他们口中智慧的话，而不愿听那些明白哲学、科学、甚至神学而丝毫不知圣经之人的讲论。
“Power belongeth unto God.” (Psalm 62:11) The great reservoir of the power that belongs to God is His own Word——the Bible. If we wish to make it ours, we must go to that Book. Yet people abound in the church who are praying for power and neglecting the Bible. Men are longing to have power for fruit-bearing in their own lives and yet forget that Jesus has said: “The seed is the Word of God” (Luke 8:11). They are longing to have power to melt the cold heart and break the stubborn will, and yet forget that God has said: “Is not my Word like as a fire? …and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?” (Jer. 23:29).
If we are to obtain fullness of power in life and service, we must feed upon the Word of God. There is no other food so strengthening. If we will not take time to study the Bible, we cannot have power, any more than we can have physical power if we will not take time to eat nutritious food.
I have seen men and women without culture, who have had almost no advantages in school, but who knew their Bibles; and I would rather sit at their feet and learn the wisdom that falls from their lips, than listen to the man who knows much about philosophy and science and theology even, and does not know anything about the Word of God.
