每日箴言(中英)|我们当怎样行?



每日箴言

我们当怎样行?

“众人听见这话,觉得扎心,就 ...... 说:‘我们当怎样行?’” - 徒 2:37

 灵修

彼得站在群众面前时,有圣灵引导他说当说什么话,耶稣曾应许过祂会这样引导他们,说:“我必赐你们口才、智慧,是你们一切敌人所敌不住,驳不倒的。”(路加福音21:15)耶稣又说:“等真理的圣灵来了,他要引导你们明白一切的真理 ...... 并要把将来的事告诉你们。”(约翰福音16:13)


因此,彼得的信息是以神在基督里的应许和应验为根基的。他想起先知约珥的话,这话不但包括神应许圣灵会浇灌在每一个人身上,更邀请人求告主的名和得拯救。


这位主是谁呢?就是那位刚被众人钉十字架的耶稣。


彼得把神的应许和耶稣的一生往返交织起来,他的陈述可归纳为一个重点: “你们钉在十字架上的这位耶稣,神已经立他为主,为基督了。”接着,众人就问:“我们当怎样行?”


于是彼得便指教众人说:“ ...... 要悔改,奉耶稣基督的名受洗。”他们便都领受了所赐的圣灵。他更进一步催促和劝勉他们,要求告主的名,结果当日约有三千人相信和受洗!


 祷告

亲爱的神,愿我们的心时常开放,接受祢的救恩信息。我们的罪把耶稣钉在十字架上,祂为我们偿还罪债,拯救我们不致永远灭亡,我们感谢耶稣的救恩,感谢祢藉此赐给我们的恩典。奉耶稣的名祷告,阿们。


普世佳音每日箴言

 What Shall We Do?

When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said . . . “What shall we do?” — Acts 2:37

 

 Devotion

As Peter stands before the crowd, the Holy Spirit guides his words. Jesus promised this guidance when he said, “I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict” (Luke 21:15), and, “When he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth . . . and he will tell you what is yet to come” (John 16:13).


Peter’s message is therefore rooted in the promises of God and the fulfillment of those promises in Christ. He recalls the words of the prophet Joel, which contain not only the promise of God’s Spirit poured out on all people, but also an invitation to call on the name of the Lord and be saved.


Who is this Lord? It is Jesus, whom the people crucified.


By weaving back and forth from the promises of God and the life of Jesus, Peter builds his case to this key point: “God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.” And the people ask, “What shall we do?”


Peter then guides these listeners to “repent and be baptized . . . in the name of Jesus Christ.” And they receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Pressing further, he urges and pleads with others to call on the Lord’s name. And about 3,000 people believe and are baptized!


 Prayer

Dear God, may our hearts always be open to your gospel message. Our sins brought Jesus to the cross, and he paid the price to save us from eternal death. Thank you for the grace that comes through salvation in Jesus. Amen.
