以西结书 5

Study

   

1 人子啊,你要拿一把快刀,当作剃刀,用这刀剃你的发和你的胡须,用天平将须发平分。

2 围困城的日子满了,你要将分之一在城中用火焚烧,将分之一在城的四围用刀砍碎,将分之一任吹散;我也要拔刀追赶。

3 你要从其中取几根包在衣襟里,

4 再从这几根中取些扔在中焚烧,从里面必有出来烧入以色列全家。

5 耶和华如此:这就是耶路撒冷。我曾将他安置在列邦之中;列国都在他的四围。

6 他行恶,违背我的典章,过於列国;干犯我的律例,过於四围的列邦,因为他弃掉我的典章。至於我的律例,他并没有遵行。

7 所以耶和华如此:因为你们纷争过於四围的列国,也不遵行我的律例,不谨守我的典章,并以遵从四围列国的恶规尚不满意,

8 所以耶和华如此:看哪,我与你反对,必在列国的眼前,在你中间,施行审判;

9 并且因你一切可憎的事,我要在你中间行我所未曾行的,以後我也不再照着行。

10 在你中间父亲儿子,儿子要父亲。我必向你施行审判,我必将你所剩下的分散四方(方:原文是)。

11 耶和华:我指着我的永生起誓,因你用一切可憎的物、可厌的事玷污了我的圣所,故此,我定要使你人数减少,我眼必不顾惜你,也不可怜你。

12 你的民分之一必遭瘟疫,在你中间必因饥荒消灭;分之一必在你四围倒在刀下;我必将分之一分散四方(方:原文是),并要拔刀追赶他们。

13 我要这样成就怒中所定的;我向他们发的忿怒止息了,自己就得着安慰。我在他们身上成就怒中所定的那时,他们就知道我─耶和华的是出於热心;

14 并且我必使你在四围的列国中,在经过的众人眼前,成了荒凉和羞辱。

15 这样,我必以怒气和忿怒,并烈怒的责备,向你施行审判。那时,你就在四围的列国中成为羞辱、讥刺、警戒、惊骇。这是我─耶和华的。

16 那时,我要将灭人、使人饥荒的恶,就是射去灭人的,射在你们身上,并要加增你们的饥荒,断绝你们所倚靠的粮食;

17 又要使饥荒和恶兽到你那里,叫你丧子,瘟疫和流血的事也必盛行在你那里;我也要使刀临到你。这是我─耶和华的。

Scriptural Confirmations #4

  
/ 101  
  

4. 2. The Son of God (Romans 1:3-4).

Called after Jesus Christ, Christians (Romans 1:6) through the faith of Jesus Christ (Romans 3:22).

Faith in Christ. Through Jesus Christ we have peace toward God, and to God we have access by faith into this grace, and we glory in the hope of the glory of God (Romans 5:1-2).

By Jesus Christ were we reconciled to God (Romans 5:10,11).

As by one man sin entered into the world, so by the justice of one are we justified (Romans 5:12, 13, 15, 18-19).

There is no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit, in order that the justification of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit (Romans 8:1-4). Christ is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us (Romans 8:34).

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, distress, hunger, death, angels, principalities, height, depth, etc. (Romans 8:35-39)?

From the fathers Christ is according to the flesh, who is over all; God blessed forever. Amen (Romans 9:5).

Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved (Romans 10:13).

We are one body in Christ; all are members having different gifts according to grace (Romans 12:5-6). The gifts which belong to different members are enumerated in a long series (verses 6, 13).

Put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 13:14).

Whether we live, we live in the Lord; whether we die, we die in the Lord; therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's. For to this end Christ both died and rose and lived again that He might be Lord both of the dead and of the living (Romans 14:8-9).

It is written, I live, saith the Lord, for every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall confess to God (Romans 14:11). Isaiah saith, there shall be a root of Jesse, and He that shall rise to rule over the nations; in Him shall the nations hope (Romans 15:12).

The Gospel of Christ (Romans 15:19-21).

Chosen and tried in the Lord, in Christ: to work and labor in the Lord (Romans 16:8-13).
