标  题:重生

经  节:耶稣回答说:“我实实在在地告诉你,人若不重生,就不能见神的国。”(约翰福音三章3节)

进入被基督拯救的关系,是改变生命的经历!所有事情都变成新的了!不是其中一件事,乃是所有的事情(哥林多后书五:17)!这是你人生第一次,基督是王,神是主。当你变成基督徒,基督的出现会影响你生活的每个层面。你会有新的思维、新的态度、新的价值观和新的敏锐。新的人生优先级会戏剧化地改变你的一生。你会以与基督类似的眼光,来看每一件事。基督教不是某件加添在你生活中的事,这是生命!

尼哥底母认为,救恩是举行某些特定的宗教仪式及抓住某一个特殊的规条。他一点也不晓得救恩总括的本质!当你成为基督徒,神赐给你一颗新的心,好叫万事都变成新的了!神赐给你全新的思维,就像基督的一样,好叫你的想法与过往不同。祂给你新的情感,所以你的感受完全不同。你对罪变得敏感,所以再也不能心安理得地犯罪。当你了解什么可以荣耀神、什么不能荣耀神,你的消遣娱乐会被影响。你的关系现在是被圣灵掌管。毁灭性的恶习及过去不愿改变的态度,也都转变了。

你是否注意到,自从进入与耶稣基督的重要关系后,神在你生命带来的改变?这些改变应该是显而易见的,它们是当你相信耶稣是你个人的救主与王后,所得到新生命的见证。


Born Again

Jesus answered and said to him, “Most
assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of
God.” (John 3:3)

Entering a saving relationship with Christ is a
life-changing experience! All things become new! Not some things, but all
things (2 Cor. 5:17). For the first time in your life, Christ is Lord; God is
Master. When you become a Christian, Christ’s presence will affect every part
of you. You will have new thoughts, new attitudes, new values, and new
sensitivities. New priorities will dramatically affect your relationships. You
will view everything in your life from a Christlike perspective. Christianity
is not something you add to your life; it is life!

Nicodemus thought that salvation meant performing
certain religious exercises and holding to particular religious teachings. He
had no idea of the all-encompassing nature of salvation! When you become a
Christian, God gives you a new heart so that everything becomes new! God gives
you a new mind, like that of Christ, so you think differently. He gives you new
emotions, so you feel deeply about completely different matters. You become
sensitive to sin, so you are no longer comfortable with it. Your recreation
will be affected as you are made aware of what is honoring to God and what is
not. Your relationships will now be guided by the Holy Spirit. Destructive
habits and attitudes, previously immune to change, will be transformed.

Have you noticed the changes God has brought to
your life since you entered a vital relationship with Jesus Christ? These
changes should be very noticeable as a testimony of the new life you received
when you trusted Jesus as your Savior and Lord.
