圣经启示

“耶和华啊，你的话安定在天，直到永远。”

诗篇119:89

启示是什么意思？意思就是隐藏起来的事物被显露出来。自在永在的神，乃是通过圣经向我们启示他自己。神有两本教科书（教科书是向读者提供事实和指导的书）。上帝的教科书一本是关于大自然的，另一本是有关启示的。

上帝在大自然教科书中的法则从未改变，它们让我们知道上帝的大能和威严。而在有关启示的教科书中，也就是圣经中，神亲自说话，并通过他的仆人一笔一划地记载并传承下来。它经受住了怀疑论者、不可知论者和无神论者的攻击。从来没有一项考古发现证明它是错误的。圣经关于救赎的启示乃是至高无上的。

圣经的作者们一再强调这都是神的话语。要么就是神说话了，要么这些人全都是历史上最大的骗子。但是，对于他们来说，在一个问题上撒两千个谎就太令人难以置信了。

耶稣常常引用旧约圣经，他从来没有怀疑过圣经。使徒保罗经常引用圣经，事实上，保罗说：“圣经都是神所默示的”（提摩太后书3:16）。难道耶稣和保罗都被骗子愚弄了吗？

当然没有。在历史上神确实说过话，今天祂仍然通过圣经对我们说话，神的话语永远长存。

去了解圣经吧，你会与祂更加亲近。

今日祷告：

天上的父神，求你向我解开你的话语，让我在你的话语中见到你。奉耶稣的圣名，阿们。

REVELATION IN SCRIPTURE

For ever,O Lord,thy word is settled in heaven.Psalm 119:89

What does revelation mean?It means that something which has been hidden is to be made known.God,who has existed forever,has revealed Himself to us through Scripture.

God has two textbooks(a textbook is a book which gives the reader facts and instructions).One of God’s textbooks is about nature.The other is about revelation.

The laws God has revealed in the textbook of nature have never changed.They tell us of God’s mighty power and majesty.

In the textbook of revelation,the Bible,God has spoken verbally;and this spoken word has survived every scratch of human pen.It has survived the assault of skeptics,agnostics,and atheists.It has never been proved wrong by a single archaeological discovery.It remains supreme in its revelation of redemption.

The writers of the Bible repeatedly claim that God spoke.Either God did speak,or these men were the biggest liars in history.But for them to have told two thousand lies on one subject would be incredible.

Jesus quoted frequently from the Old Testament.He never once said He doubted Scripture.The apostle Paul often quoted Scripture.In fact Paul said,“All scripture is given by inspiration of God”(2 Timothy 3:16).Were Jesus and Paul fooled by“liars”?

No,God has spoken truly in history,and He still speaks to us today through that same Word,which stands forever because it is the Word of God.

Get to know the Word of God and you will draw closer to Him.

Pray for the Day:

Father in heaven,open up Your word to me,and reveal Yourself to me through it;in Jesus’Name,Amen.
