双语灵修(葛培理牧师):4月7日 基督教的独特性
4月7日
基督教的独特性
祂不在这里,已经复活了。
——路24:6
有些特质使得基督教区别于世界上的所有其他的宗教。因为基督教不但显明了救赎的真理,即我们的救主为了我们的罪而死在十字架上,而且更显明了基督复活的事实。唯有基督教的真理在宣扬他们的主是死而复活的主,是永在的主。许许多多的墓碑镌刻着“这里躺着……”,然而唯有基督的坟墓却刻有这样的话,“他不在这里。”基督教没有可供参观的庙宇,没有可供尊崇的遗物,更没有可供敬拜的墓地。这世上有过许许多多的好人,曾经活在,而且仍然活在那些认识他们的人的记忆中,然而唯有耶稣基督胜过了死亡——他将永远活着。
今日祷告
主耶稣,祢复活的消息将永远带给我喜乐!祷告奉耶稣的名,阿们。

What Makes Christianity Different?
He is not here,but is risen.
—Luke 24:6
Something distinguishes Christianity from all the religions of the world.Not only does it carry the truth of the redemption,by the death of our Savior for our sins on the cross,but it carries the fact that Christ rose again.Only the Christian faith claims that its Leader died and rose again and is alive at this moment.Many gravestones carry the inscription,“Here lies……,”but on Christ’s tomb are emblazoned the words,“He is not here.”Christianity has no shrines to visit,no dusty remains to venerate,no tombs at which to worship.Many good men have lived,and still live,in the memory of those who knew them,but there is only one Man who conquered death-Jesus Christ-and He will live forever.
Prayer for the day:
The account of Your resurrection never ceases to bring me joy,Lord Jesus.In Jesus’name,Amen.
