每日金句
合城的人都聚集在门前。耶稣治好了许多害各样病的人。
—可 1:33-34
耶稣基督昨日今日一直到永远,是一样的。
—来 13:8
The whole town gathered at the door, and Jesus healed many who had various diseases.
—Acts 17:24-25
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
—Hebrews 13:8
在有关耶稣行神迹的对话中,有人问:“如果‘耶稣治好了许多害各样病的人’而且‘耶稣昨日今日一直到永远,是一样的’,那为什么今天我们不期待祂也照样医治病人呢?”
而且,诗篇第一百零三篇第三节不是说,“祂赦免你的一切罪孽,医治你的一切疾病”吗?
有些人说,或许耶稣有时不医治是因为人们信心不足。但这个观点使许多满有信心的基督徒感到不安,他们为所爱之人身体得医治反复祷告,但仍未得医治。
或者,是否如其他有些人所说的那样,神迹医治的时代已经过去了呢?
这两个观点都说不通。实际上,神迹医治在今天仍然发生,有些人亲眼目睹了医治。然而我们不知道为什么有人得了医治,有些人却没有,但这与缺乏信心没有直接关系。
耶稣在世上传道时,并没有医治所有人。而且祂并没有应许凡祈求的人都得到身体医治。(参林后 12:7-10)但耶稣却应许赐给我们力量去承受一切重担。(参太 11:28)
In a conversation about Jesus’ miracles, someone asked, “If, Jesus ‘healed many who had various diseases,’ and if ‘Jesus is the same yesterday and today and forever,’ why should we not expect him to heal also today?”
And doesn’t Psalm 103:3 say that the Lord forgives all our sins and heals all our diseases?
Some people have said that perhaps Jesus doesn’t always heal because people do not have enough faith. But that idea has upset many faith-filled Christians who have prayed and prayed for physical healing for someone they loved—and yet there was no healing.
Or could it be, as some others have said, that the time for miraculous healings has passed?
Well, neither of those ideas makes sense. Miraculous healings still happen today, and some people have seen healings before their very eyes. We don’t know why some people are healed and some are not, but it does not have to do with a lack of faith.
During his ministry on earth, Jesus did not heal everyone. And he did not promise physical healing for all who asked. (See also 2 Corinthians 12:7-10.) But Jesus does promise to give us strength to bear whatever burdens we may carry (Matthew 11:28).
祷告 · Prayer
主啊,帮助我们晓得,祢永远爱我们,供应我们的需要,无论祢的医治发生在现在还是将来。阿们。
