赐生命的灵

“基督若在你们心里,身体就因罪而死,心灵却因义而活。” - 罗 8:10

圣灵赐下生命,并且内驻在我们里面。圣灵赐给人能力,像风一样带着我们前行。圣灵带来更新,像新鲜空气在我们里面,使我们灵性的肺部充满了从神而来的新气息。我们变得有动力,有活力,充满了热情。

我们在基督里的新生命,使我们不再做努力遵守律法的奴隶(罗8:1-4)。因着基督已经完成的工作,我们被称义(罗 3-4章)。正如保罗所说,“身体就因罪而死,心灵却因义而活。”——这义指的是基督的义。

赐生命的灵给我们自由。“主的灵在哪里,那里就有自由”(林后 3:17)。事实上,顺服圣灵的生命会一直在变好,因为我们正在逐渐被改变,变得越来越像基督(林后 3:18)。

所以我们千万不要屈服于律法主义的危险。试图按着律法生活而不是靠着圣灵生活,这种模式很容易溜进我们的生活。几年前,我有机会在莫斯科讲道,有一个人冲上前去,坚持说我不应该被允许讲道,因为我没有穿西装。但在我讲道结束后,有一个女人上台前来,第一次把自己的生命交托给了神。不要让律法主义迷惑了你的灵性。相反,要活在圣灵的自由中。

祷告

赐生命的灵,请在基督耶稣里用丰盛的自由充满我们生命。阿们。

罗马书 8:9-11

9如果神的灵住在你们心里,你们就不属肉体,乃属圣灵了。人若没有基督的灵,就不是属基督的。
10基督若在你们心里,身体就因罪而死,心灵却因义而活。
11然而叫耶稣从死里复活者的灵若住在你们心里,那叫基督耶稣从死里复活的,也必藉着住在你们心里的圣灵,使你们必死的身体又活过来。

The Life-giving Spirit

"Even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life because of righteousness." - Romans 8:10

英语音频 English Audio

The Spirit gives life, and he comes to live inside us. The Spirit gives energy, like a wind that carries us along. The Spirit brings refreshment, like a new breath within us so that our spiritual lungs are bursting with the fresh air of God. We are motivated, dynamic, filled with enthusiasm.

In our new life in Christ we are no longer in slavery to trying to keep the law (Romans 8:1-4). Because of Christ's finished work we are credited with his righteousness (Romans 3-4). As Paul puts it, "even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life because of righteousness"—that is, because of the righteousness of Christ.

The life-giving Spirit gives us freedom. "Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom" (2 Corinthians 3:17). In fact, life in the Spirit is getting better all the time because we are gradually being transformed to become more and more like Christ (2 Corinthians 3:18).

So we should never give in to the danger of legalism. Trying to live by the law instead of living by the Spirit can easily creep into our lives. Some years ago, when I had the opportunity to preach in Moscow, a man rushed forward insisting that I should not be allowed to preach because I was not wearing a suit. But later, in the middle of my sermon, a woman rushed forward to surrender her life to God for the first time. Don't let legalism confuse your spirituality. Instead, live in the freedom of the Holy Spirit.

Prayer

Life-giving Spirit, fill us with the abundant life of freedom in Christ Jesus. Amen.
