1林前十五10 然而因着神的恩,我成了我今天这个人,并且神的恩临到我,不是徒然的;反而我比众使徒格外劳苦,但这不是我,乃是神的恩与我同在。
11 Cor. 15:10 But by the grace of God I am what I am; and His grace unto me did not turn out to be in vain, but, on the contrary, I labored more abundantly than all of them, yet not I but the grace of God which is with me.
2加六18 弟兄们,愿我们主耶稣基督的恩与你们的灵同在。阿们。
2Gal. 6:18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
3我们需要领会,创世记这卷书中所描绘的堕落乃是背景,为要衬托出一幅非常积极的图画,表明神对于堕落的人所作的。创世记的记载,主要的目的不是要表明堕落,乃是要表明神的恩典能为堕落的人作那么多。……六章八节说,“但挪亚在耶和华眼前蒙恩。”(蒙恩,或作,得恩典。)在耶和华眼前蒙恩不是一件小事。“蒙恩”是什么意思?请注意这节不是说,神对挪亚有恩典,或说神施恩给挪亚。不,这里是说挪亚蒙恩,得恩典。要记得创世记是一卷充满属灵种子的书。在八节这里是圣经中第一次提到恩典。挪亚能以是他所是的,乃是因他在耶和华眼前得恩典(创世记生命读经,四五三、四五五页)。
3We need to realize that the falls portrayed in the book of Genesis are the background of a very positive picture that shows what God has done with the fallen human race. The main purpose of the record of Genesis is not to show the fall but to show how much God’s grace can do for fallen people. Genesis 6:8 says, “But Noah found favor in the sight of Jehovah.” Favor can also be translated “grace.” Finding grace in the sight of the Lord is not a small thing. What does “finding grace” mean? Notice that this verse does not say that God was gracious to Noah or that Jehovah granted grace to Noah. No, it says that Noah found grace. Remember that Genesis is a book filled with spiritual seeds. Here, in 6:8, we have the first mention of grace in the Bible. Noah was able to be what he was because he found grace in the sight of Jehovah. (Lifestudy of Genesis, pp. 371-372)

4希伯来四章十六节告诉我们,只管坦然无惧地来到施恩的宝座前,为要受怜悯,得恩典,作应时的帮助。我年轻的时候几乎每天都祷告说,“主,我来到施恩的宝座前。在你的施恩宝座前,我得着恩典作我应时的帮助。主,我每分钟都需要你的恩典。我不仅每年、每周、每天、每小时需要你的恩典,更是每分钟都需要你的恩典。没有你的恩典,我简直什么也不能承当。”今天我仍然……不断地告诉主:“主,我每分钟都需要你的恩典。我知道你是有恩典的,并且你为我预备了恩典。主,因为恩典需要我的合作,我跪在施恩的宝座前,要得恩典以应付我的需要。”很多时候我们简直无法忍受我们的环境,并且不能面对将要遭遇的事。然而,有一个地方叫作施恩的宝座。你坦然无惧地来到施恩的宝座前,就能受怜悯,得恩典,作应时的帮助。
4Hebrews 4:16 tells us to come forward with boldness to the throne of grace that we may receive mercy and find grace for timely help. When I was young, nearly every day in my prayers I would say, “Lord, I am coming to the throne of grace. At Your throne of grace I find grace for my timely need. Lord, I need Your grace every minute. I not only need Your grace every year, every week, every day, and every hour but every minute. Without Your grace I simply cannot bear anything.” Today…I keep on telling the Lord, “Lord, I need Your grace every minute. I know that You are gracious and that You have grace ready for me. Lord, since grace needs my cooperation, I kneel before the throne of grace to find grace to meet my need.” Many times we simply cannot stand our situation, and we cannot face what is happening to us. However, there is a place called the throne of grace. Come forward with boldness to the throne of grace that you may receive mercy and find grace for timely help.
6恩典不仅是神所给的某种东西,更是神自己为我们作事。恩典不仅是神所给我们客观的东西,恩典乃是神自己临到我们,为我们作事。你软弱么?神要来作你的力量,神那个来就是恩典。你不能面对你的处境么?那不该是个问题,因为神要与你站在一起,为着你并在你里面面对这处境。这是恩典。……神的同在乃是挪亚的力量和动力。挪亚不但在客观方面享受神给他的事物,他更享受神自己。在一个弯曲、悖谬和淫乱的世代,这世代的试诱没有人能抗拒,但挪亚在耶和华眼前蒙恩。
6Grace is not only something given by God, but it is God Himself doing things for us. Grace is not merely something objective that is given to us by God. Grace is God Himself coming to us and doing things for us. Are you weak? God will come to be your strength, and that coming of God is grace. Are you unable to face your situation? That need not be a problem, because God will come to stand with you and face that situation for and in you. This is grace…God’s presence was Noah’s strength and power. Noah not only enjoyed something given to him by God objectively, but he enjoyed God Himself. In the midst of a crooked, perverted, and adulterous generation, a generation whose temptations no one could withstand, Noah found grace in the sight of Jehovah.
7想想看现代社会的情形。我甚至不敢看报纸,它含有太多的试诱。当我沿街走着的时候,我不敢往厨窗里面看。……你在收音机中、工作中并学校里所听到的谈话,都是邪恶、败坏并属鬼的。……这个时代真是弯曲、悖谬并淫乱,满了奸淫和邪荡。人们毫无羞耻地谈论不道德的事。谁能在这样一个世代站住呢?我们没有一个人能站立得住。我们里面都有堕落的性情,所有的人都有同样的邪恶性情。我们需要恩典。我们必须坦然无惧地来到施恩的宝座前,说,“主,我在这里,我需要你的恩典。我来不是求你给我好东西,我来是要得恩典以应付我的需要。主,没有你的同在,我不能去工作或上学。主,没有你的同在,我不能去百货公司。主,我需要你与我站在一起。请你来,作我的力量。主,托住我,支持我。”(创世记生命读经,四五五至四五八页)
7Consider the situation in modern society. I do not even dare to look at a newspaper. It contains too many temptations…I do not dare to look into the show windows…The talk you hear on the radio, at work, and at school is evil, corrupt, and devilish…This age is truly crooked, perverted, and adulterous; it is full of fornication and immorality. People talk about immorality without one bit of shame. Who can stand in such a generation? Not one of us is able to stand. We all have a fallen nature within us, the same evil nature that all men have. We need grace. We must come to the throne of grace boldly and say, “Lord, I am here. I need Your grace. I am not coming to ask You to give me good things. I am coming to find grace to meet my need. Lord, I cannot go to work or to school without Your presence. Lord, I cannot go to a department store without Your presence. Lord, I need You to stand with me. Come to be my strength. Lord, uphold me and sustain me.” (Lifestudy of Genesis, pp. 372-375)

今日要点
9主题:经历恩典是神自己临到我们
9
10
111.恩典是神自己临到我们:
11
12a. 林前十五10:「然而因着神的恩,我成了我今天这个人,并且神的恩临到我,不是徒然的;反而我比众使徒格外劳苦,但这不是我,乃是神的恩与我同在。」恩典不仅是神给的东西,更是神自己临到我们,作我们的力量、作我们的一切,为我们作事。恩典是神自己作我们的一切,让我们在失败中得胜。神自己临到我们,让我们在试诱中站立。
12
13b. 在败坏世代,试诱无人能抗拒;但恩典帮助我们与神同行,让我们在里面有力量对付试诱,让我们成为义人、完全人。恩典是神自己临到我们,让我们在试诱中站立。神用恩典让我们在败坏中得胜。
13
142.恩典与我们的灵同在,让我们成为义人:
14
15a. 加六18:「弟兄们,愿我们主耶稣基督的恩与你们的灵同在。阿们。」这是保罗对恩典生活的最终总结:基督的恩(作恩典的基督)与我们的灵同在。这同在不是外在的加添,乃是基督自己与我们的灵成为一,让我们凭灵而行,不再顺着肉体而行。因主与我们同在,就使我们成为与神、与人、与自己都是对的「义人」。
15
16b. 恩典的结果是义;凭着恩典的大能、力量与生命,我们能与神、与彼此、甚至与自己是对的。这与挪亚蒙恩成为义人完全相符合:挪亚在耶和华眼前蒙恩,就成为义人、完全人,在败坏世代中与神同行。我们也要经历基督的恩与灵同在,让我们成为今日的挪亚,过义的生活,让神在我们身上通行定旨。
16
17应用:
17
18我们要天天察觉肉体的搅扰,立刻来到施恩的宝座前:祷告说「主,你知道你的仇敌就在这里,你必须来和我站在一起抵挡他」;求主成全我们经历基督的恩与灵同在,产生义,与神同行。
