20我们听福音的时候,传讲的人把基督描绘给我们听。我们越听,就越看见基督,也越受基督吸引。……传福音的人传讲基督,陈明基督的荣美。你听了关于基督的这些话之后,也就是说,你看见了这样一位基督之后,你里面就有一种对基督的珍赏,而你对祂的珍赏乃是你被祂吸引的反应。我们能相信主耶稣,是因为我们听见人说到祂,也就是说,我们看见了祂。我们读圣经,在圣经里我们看见一些关于祂的事。
20When we heard the gospel, the preacher described Christ to us. The more we heard, the more we saw Christ and were attracted to Christ…The preachers preach Christ to present Christ’s beauty. After hearing such a word about Christ, that is, after seeing such a Christ, within us there is an appreciation of Christ, and our appreciation of Him is the reaction to His attraction. We can believe in the Lord Jesus because we hear about Him; that is, we see Him. We read the Bible, and in the Bible we see something about Him.
