1月3日

简单的信息

 

我爱你们正如父爱我一样,你们要常在我的爱里。

(翰15:9)

 

著名的卡尔·巴斯博士出生于瑞士,是他那一代世界上最有影响力的神学家,同时也是伟大的哲学家。尽管我并不是赞同他的所有观点,但他是我的朋友,因此我很尊重他。当他还在世的时候,神学院的一名学生问他:“巴斯博士,你认为什么是最伟大的真理?”神学院所有的学生都坐在自己的座位上等待着一个伟大深奥且复杂的答案。巴斯博士有着蓬松的灰色头发,他慢慢地抬起头,看着学生回答:“我只知道神爱我,这是圣经告诉我的。”

 

今日祷告

主耶稣基督,让我知道祢爱我这个简单的真理,不要受太多学识的困扰,谢谢祢爱我。奉耶稣基督的圣名,阿们。

A Simple Message

 

As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.

—John 15:9

The great Swiss theologian, Dr. Karl Barth, was probably in his generation the greatest theologian in the world, and a great philosopher as well. I did not always agree with him, but he was my friend and I respected him. While he was in this country, a student at one of the seminaries said, “Dr. Barth, what is the greatest truth that ever crossed your mind?” All the seminary students were sitting on the edge of their seats to hear some great, profound, deep, complicated answer. Dr. Barth slowly raised his great shaggy gray head and looked at the student and said, “Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so.”

 

Prayer for the day

Lord Jesus, may I always keep the knowledge of Your love in true simplicity—unencumbered by much learning. Thank You for loving me. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
