关于圣经故事百来说,可以说圣经是西方文明的重要起源之一,虽然圣经故事本身事实上是不存在的,但是通过圣经故事可以侧面的了解到古代西方社会的情况。通过上帝以及诸神的传说可以了解到西度方社会的精神上深层次的根源,以及西方国家关于人权,民主思想产生的原因等等等等,都能够有比较好的认内识!
读圣经故事不能像读小说一样为了读故事而读故事,要联系西方文明史的发展去读,同样也要仔细体会容圣经对西方文明史的作用,从而更加全面的理解西方人本主义,分权思想等等等等!
这是圣经里面 约10:1-30里面的故事,耶稣把他自己比作牧羊人,而我们都是他的小羊,讲到他是如何地爱着我们,并看顾我们。
在一切动物中,羊是最胆小最懦弱的;所以在近东一带的人,都刻苦耐劳,夜以继日地看护羊群。在巴勒斯坦一带,古时像今日一样,城墙以外都不甚安全。从境外游牧民族出来的盗匪,或是藏在岩石穴中的野兽,都在伺机掠夺羊群。牧人虽知自己有生命的危险,却依然警醒看守、不敢疏忽。
牧人引领羊群攀登多石的山丘,经过森林和荒芜的沟壑,到河边的草原,整夜在山上看守它们,保护它们脱离强盗的手,并慈祥地照料病弱的羊,他的生活就和羊群打成一片。一种亲切温柔的深情,把牧人和他所看守的羊联结在一起。不论羊群多大,牧人总是认识他的每一只羊。每只羊都有自己的名字,牧人一叫,它就应声而来。
耶稣认识我们每个人,并体恤我们的软弱。他知道我们各人的名字,认识我们所住的房屋,以及屋里每个成员的名字。他往往指示他的仆人到某城某街某家去,找他羊群里的一只羊。
每个人的情况耶稣都了如指掌,救主的死,好像只是为了那一个人似的。每个人的愁苦都触动着他的心。他们求助的呼声,无不蒙他垂听。他来,是要吸引众人归向自己。他吩咐他们“跟从我”,于是,他的灵就运行在他们心中,引导他们归向他。但有许多人不肯受他引导,耶稣知道他们是谁。他也知道哪些人欢喜听他的呼唤,乐意来受他的牧养。他说:“我的羊听我的声音,我也认识他们,他们也跟着我。”他对每个人照顾得都那样尽心专意,好像世上没有别人分享他的恩惠。
基督的门徒跟从他,不是因为惧怕刑罚,也不是因为希望永久的赏赐,而是看到了救主一生经历中所显明的无比大爱,从伯利恒的马槽、到髑髅地的十字架,人一看见他,就被他吸引,心灵被他感化而驯服。人一看见他,爱就在心中苏醒。他们一听见他的声音,就跟从他。
牧人如何走在羊前面,自己首先去面对路上的危险,耶稣对他的子民,也是如此。“既放出自己的羊来,就在前头走。”通向天国的路,已由主神圣的脚开辟出来。这条路虽然崎岖险峻,满是泥泞,但耶稣已经行走过,他的脚已经踏平沿路伤人的荆棘,使我们更容易行走。我们所要肩负的一切重担,他都已经亲自负过。
在一切考验中,我们有一位永不失败的帮助者。他并不让我们单独在试探中挣扎,独自与邪恶搏斗,而被重担和忧伤所压倒。我们肉眼虽不能看见他,但信心的耳朵,仍能听见他的声音说:“你不要害怕,因为我与你同在。”“我是首先的,我是末后的,又是那存活的。我曾死过,现在又活了,直活到永永远远。你们的忧伤我已忍受,你们的挣扎我已经历,你们的试探我已遭遇。我知道你们所流的眼泪,因为我也曾哭过。你们心中难以告人的隐痛,我都知道。你们不要以为自己是孤苦伶仃,被人撇弃的,你们的痛苦虽e79fa5e98193e4b893e5b19e335不能得到世人的同情,但你若仰望我,就必存活。“大山可以挪开,小山可以迁移,但我的慈爱必不离开你,我平安的约也不迁移。这是怜恤你的耶和华说的。”
耶稣爱我们,因为我们是天父赐给他的,又是他工作的报偿。他以爱子女的心情爱我们。亲爱的读者,他也爱你。上天所能赐的,再没有比这更大更好的。所以你务要信靠他。
In all ages, philosophers and teachers have been presenting to the world theories by which to satisfy the soul's need. Every heathen nation has had its great teachers and religious systems offering some other means of redemption than Christ, turning the eyes of men away from the Father's face, and filling their hearts with fear of Him who has given them only blessing. The trend of their work is to rob God of that which is His own, both by creation and by redemption. And these false teachers rob man as well. Millions of human beings are bound down under false religions, in the bondage of slavish fear, of stolid indifference, toiling like beasts of burden, bereft of hope or joy or aspiration here, and with only a dull fear of the hereafter. It is the gospel of the grace of God alone that can uplift the soul. The contemplation of the love of God manifested in His Son will stir the heart and arouse the powers of the soul as nothing else can. Christ came that He might re-create the image of God in man; and whoever turns men away from Christ is turning them away from the source of true development; he is defrauding them of the hope and purpose and glory of life. He is a thief and a robber.
As the shepherd leads his flock over the rocky hills, through forest and wild ravines, to grassy nooks by the riverside; as he watches them on the mountains through the lonely night, shielding from robbers, caring tenderly for the sickly and feeble, his life comes to be one with theirs. A strong and tender attachment unites him to the objects of his care. However large the flock, the shepherd knows every sheep. Every one has its name, and responds to the name at the shepherd's call.
Jesus knows us individually, and is touched with the feeling of our infirmities. He knows us all by name. He knows the very house in which we live, the name of each occupant. He has at times given directions to His servants to go to a certain street in a certain city, to such a house, to find one of His sheep.
Every soul is as fully known to Jesus as if he were the only one for whom the Saviour died. The distress of every one touches His heart. The cry for aid reaches His ear. He came to draw all men unto Himself. He bids them, "Follow Me," and His Spirit moves upon their hearts to draw them to come to Him. Many refuse to be drawn. Jesus knows who they are. He also knows who gladly hear His call, and are ready to come under His pastoral care. He says, "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me." He cares for each one as if there were not another on the face of the earth.
"He calleth His own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. . . . And the sheep follow Him: for they know His voice." The Eastern shepherd does not drive his sheep. He depends not upon force or fear; but going before, he calls them. They know his voice, and obey the call. So does the Saviour-Shepherd with His sheep. The Scripture says, "Thou leddest Thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron." Through the prophet, Jesus declares, "I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with loving-kindness have I drawn thee." He compels none to follow Him. "I drew them," He says, "with cords of a man, with bands of love." Ps. 77:20; Jer. 31:3; Hosea 11:4.
It is not the fear of punishment, or the hope of everlasting reward, that leads the disciples of Christ to follow Him. They behold the Saviour's matchless love, revealed throughout His pilgrimage on earth, from the manger of Bethlehem to Calvary's cross, and the sight of Him attracts, it softens and subdues the soul. Love awakens in the heart of the beholders. They hear His voice, and they follow Him.
As the shepherd goes before his sheep, himself first encountering the perils of the way, so does Jesus with His people. "When He putteth forth His own sheep, He goeth before them." The way to heaven is consecrated by the Saviour's footprints. The path may be steep and rugged, but Jesus has traveled that way; His feet have pressed down the cruel thorns, to make the pathway easier for us. Every burden that we are called to bear He Himself has borne.
Though now He has ascended to the presence of God, and shares the throne of the universe, Jesus has lost none of His compassionate nature. Today the same tender, sympathizing heart is open to all the woes of humanity. Today the hand that was pierced is reached forth to bless more abundantly His people that are in the world. "And they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of My hand." The soul that has given himself to Christ is more precious in His sight than the whole world. The Saviour would have passed through the agony of Calvary that one might be saved in His kingdom. He will never abandon one for whom He has died. Unless His followers choose to leave Him, He will hold them fast.
Through all our trials we have a never-failing Helper. He does not leave us alone to struggle with temptation, to battle with evil, and be finally crushed with burdens and sorrow. Though now He is hidden from mortal sight, the ear of faith can hear His voice saying, Fear not; I am with you. "I am He that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive forevermore." I have endured your sorrows, experienced your struggles, encountered your temptations. I know your tears; I also have wept. The griefs that lie too deep to be breathed into any human ear, I know. Think not that you are desolate and forsaken. Though your pain touch no responsive chord in any heart on earth, look unto Me, and live. "The mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but My kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of My peace be removed, saith the Lord that hath mercy on thee."
Because we are the gift of His Father, and the reward of His work, Jesus loves us. He loves us as His children. Reader, He loves you. Heaven itself can bestow nothing greater, nothing better. Therefore trust.
