什么人是指定要得永生的人?
一. 使徒行传13:14-50-->
使徒保罗到安提阿在犹太会堂向聚会的人讲道.(徒13:14-15)
你们都要知道: 罪得赦免的信息是藉着耶稣传给你们的.(徒13:38)
所有在摩西律法上不能称义的,藉着信耶稣都可得赦免.(徒13:39)
所以你们必须留心,不可落在先知们所预言的话里!
他们预言说:看阿!在你们的日子,我要作一件事,
就是有人要将信息传给你们,你们要藐视,要希奇,要灭亡.你们不肯相信!
这些就是指定要得永生的人!
他们出会堂的时候,要求保罗下个安息日再来向他们传讲这信息! (徒13:42)
散会的时候许多犹太人和热心归信犹太教的人跟随保罗和西拉.
下个安息日差不多全城的人都来听保罗传讲神的道!
这些就是指定要灭亡的人!
犹太人看见这么多人归信耶稣,就满心妒忌!反对保罗所传的,又毁谤! 徒13:45
这些就是指定要得永生的人!
外邦人听见,他们就欢喜并尊敬主的道.指定要得永生的人都信了主耶稣! 徒13:48
这样主的道就传偏了那地区!徒13:49
这些就是指定要灭亡的人! 徒13:50
犹太人鼓动城里,敬拜神,有地位的妇女和领导男人起来反对保罗和巴拿巴,将他们驱逐离开那地区.
二. 使徒行传17:1-6
保罗到帖撒逻尼加,有三个安息日,在会堂向聚会的人,用圣经所记载的,
向他们讲解证明耶稣就是要来拯救他们的基督.徒17:1-3
这些就是指定要得永生的人! 徒17:4
有些犹太人听从了,就跟从保罗和西拉.
还有许多敬畏神的希腊人和一些重地位的女人.
这些就是指定要灭亡的人!
犹太人妒忌,他们聚集市井匪徒,在市内发动暴乱.他们闯到耶孙的家,要捉拿保罗和西拉,
将他们交给群众... 他们大喊说,这些搅乱世界的人到这里来了! 徒17:5-6
三. 使徒行传17:10-14
保罗到比理亚在犹太会堂传福音. 徒17:10
这些就是指定要得永生的人! 徒17:11
比理亚的人比帖撒逻尼加的人更尊贵!
1. 他们很乐意领受保罗所传的福音信息.
2. 天天查考圣经,要对证保罗向他们所传的福音,要知道他们所听见的福音是不是合乎圣经所说的!
3. 许多犹太人就信了主耶稣.又有些尊贵有地位的希腊男人和女人信主. 徒17:12
再次!这些就是指定要灭亡的人!
帖撒逻尼加的犹太人听见保罗在比理亚传讲神的道,就来鼓动群众反对! 徒17:13
四.为何他们是指定要灭亡的人?哥林多后书4:3-4
若是我们所讲传的福音,有人不明白,是因为他们是要灭亡的人!
他们灭亡是因为这世界的神弄瞎了他们的头脑!
(他们选择听从世界的神!)
从人日常对所听见的福音,选择怎样反应,形成他们是什么样的人!
有些人选择用各种方法拒绝相信.有些人选择用各种方法追求明白,然后接受相信!
(我们认识一些人二十多三十年,还是选择不要信耶稣!....)
凡选择用各种方法拒绝相信的人,就会渐渐成为被指定要灭亡的人!
凡选择用各种方法追求明白,然候接受相信的人,就成为被指定要得永生的人!
愿神赐福保守各位直到永远! 零八年二月二十三日.
Who were the appointed for eternal life?
A. Acts 13:14-50à
Paul went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day in Antioch. Acts 13:14
They were invited to speak to the people meeting in the synagogue. 13:15
Paul began to preach… Be it known unto you:
Through Jesus is proclaimed to you remission of sins. 13:38
By Jesus everyone that believed is justified from all things,
from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses. 13:39
Beware therefore, lest that come upon which spoken in the prophets.
Behold, you despisers, and wonder, and perish; for I work a work in your days,
a work which you shall in no wise believe, if one declare it to you. 13:40-41
Here are the appointed for eternal life! (Acts 13:42-44)
As they went out,
they besought that these words might be spoken to them the next Sabbath. 13:42
When the synagogue broke up,
many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas…
The next Sabbath almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of God.
Here are those destined to destruction!
The Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with jealousy,
they contradicted the things which were spoken by Paul, and blasphemed. (Acts 13:45)
Here are the appointed for eternal life! Acts 13:48
The Gentiles heard this, they were glad and honored the word of the Lord;
and all who were appointed for eternal life believed. 13:48
The word of the Lord spread through the whole region! Acts 13:49
Here were those appointed for condemnation! (Acts 13:50)
The Jews incited the God-fearing women of high standing and the leading men of the City.
They stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas,
and expelled them from their region.
B. Acts 17:1-6à
Paul went to Thessalonica, for 3 Sabbath days he reasoned with them
from the scriptures explaining and proving Jesus is the Christ. 17:1-3
These were the appointed for eternal life! 17:4
Some of the Jews were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas,
as did a large number of God-fearing Greeks and not a few prominent women.
These were the appointed for destruction! 17:5
The Jews were jealous; so they rounded up some bad characters from the marketplace,
formed a mob and started a riot in the city.
They rushed to Jason’s house in search of Paul and Silas
in order to bring them out to the crowd….
They shouted:
These men who have caused trouble all over the world have now come here. 17:5-6
C. Acts 17:10-14
Paul went to Berea and preach the gospel in the Jewish synagogue. 17:10
These were the appointed for eternal life!
The Bereans were of more noble and open minded than the Thessalonians, for:
1. They received the message with great eagerness. Acts 17:11
2. They examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true.
3. Many of the Jews believed,
as did also a number of prominent Greek women and many Greek men. 17:12.
Again these were appointed for destruction!
The Jew in Thessalonica learned Paul was preaching the word of God in Berea
they went there too, agitating the crowds and stirring them up. Acts 17:13
D. Why were they appointed for destruction? 2 Cor.4:3-4
If our gospel is veiled, it is veiled in them that perish;
in whom the god of this world had blinded their mind!
(They listen to the god of the world!)
By choices they made in respond to the gospel they heard!
