马可福音-第九章

罪的严重性(9:42-50) 9:42「凡使这信我的一个小子跌倒的,倒不如把大磨石拴在这人的颈项上,扔在海里。 “跌倒”(G4624 skandalizo)是指着在跟随主的路上有挫折。ESV翻译成为sin,就是犯罪。 这段不可按着直面解释,不然所有基督徒都会死在海里。 主主要的意思告诉门徒主对他们的要求。 基督徒不可犯罪,也不可使弟兄姊妹犯罪。主不喜悦任何让我们跌倒,或者是让我们身边的弟兄姊妹跌倒的人事物。两样在主眼里看都是极严重的事。 可9:43 倘若你一只手叫你跌倒,就把他砍下来; 可9:44 你缺了肢体进入永生,强如有两只手落到地狱,入那不灭的火里去。 43-44节说到手犯罪,45-46节说到脚犯罪,47节说到眼犯罪。 如42节,这几节也不可按字面节,不然每个基督徒都是残障人士,手脚眼都信主不久后就要被砍掉,挖掉了。 主不是要我们在身体的手脚眼开刀,而是要我们在属灵的手脚眼开刀。对付让我们犯罪的肢体。以保罗的话是治死身体的恶性。 罗8:13 们若顺从肉体活著,必要死;若靠著圣灵治死身体的恶行,必要活著。 西3:5 所以,要治死你们在地上的肢体,就如淫乱、污秽、邪情、恶欲,和贪婪(贪婪就与拜偶像一样)。 44和46节的永生,在原文是没有“永”的,只有生(G2222,zoe),就是生命。主说是“进生命”,是和47节的“进神的国”平行的。 可9:46 你瘸腿进入永生,强如有两只脚被丢在地狱里。、 可9:47 倘若你一只眼叫你跌倒,就去掉他;你只有一只眼进入神的国,强如有两只眼被丢在地狱里。 神的国就是神的儿子掌权的范围。9:1主说: 可9:1 耶稣又对他们说:「我实在告诉你们,站在这里的,有人在没尝死味以前,必要看见神的国大有能力临到。」 六天后,天父就说: 可 9:7  有一朵云彩来遮盖他们;也有声音从云彩里出来,说:「这是我的爱子,你们要听他。」 所以神的国有两个意思: 1)今天的教会,就是准主耶稣为主的团体 2)来世的千年国度 我们今生要进入生命,进入神的国,就是要靠圣灵治死我们在地上的肢体。如淫乱、污秽、邪情、恶欲,和贪婪。 我们得永生是因信称义,不是要为我们是好人,而是因为我们信耶稣,是恩典,不是我们做了什么好事。 可是一旦我们信了耶稣,主就对我们有要求。主的旨意是要相信祂的人不能再犯罪,也不要我们绊倒其他的弟兄姊妹。 可9:48 在那里,虫是不死的,火是不灭的。 44节说到“不灭的火”,46和47节说到“丢在地狱”。主可能知道门徒心里想跟随主的代价是太大了,主提醒他们地狱的恐怖,相对之下,这些代价就一点也不大。 我们可以选择在今世治死肉体,那么我们就能够丰丰富富的进入神的国。 如果我们选择今世放纵肉体,来世时我们就好像残废的入神的国。我们不能与主做王,而且还要继续的学功课。 主在凯撒利亚非利比已经教导过这个属灵的原则: 可 8:35  因为,凡要救自己生命(或作:灵魂;下同)的,必丧掉生命;凡为我和福音丧掉生命的,必救了生命。 主没有教导如果基督徒跌倒而不治死肢体就会下地狱。相反的,主教导如果我们跌倒了,就好像残废的人进入神的国。虽然是残废的,可是强过在地狱里千万倍! 可 9:49  因为必用火当盐腌各人。(有古卷加:凡祭物必用盐腌。) 48节的火是地狱的火,所以49节也是地狱的火。 盐其中一个功用是防止腐烂。加强48节说的火是不灭的。 Mar 9:50  盐本是好的,若失了味,可用什麽叫他再咸呢?你们里头应当有盐,彼此和睦。」 失了味的盐会使弟兄姊妹跌倒。 西 4:6  你们的言语要常常带著和气,好像用盐调和,就可知道该怎样回答各人。
