那鴻書 1

Study

1 尼尼微的默示,就是伊勒歌斯人那鴻所得的默示。

2 耶和華是忌邪施報的神。耶和華施報大有忿怒;向他的敵人施報,向他的仇敵懷怒。

3 耶和華不輕易發怒,有能力,萬不以有罪的為無罪。他乘旋風和暴風而來,彩為他下的塵土。

4 他斥責,使乾了,使一切江乾涸。巴珊和迦密的樹林衰殘;利巴嫩的草也衰殘了。

5 因他震動;小也都消化。大在他面前突起;世界在其間的也都如此。

6 他發忿恨,誰能立得住呢?他發烈怒,誰能當得起呢?他的忿怒如傾倒;磐石因他崩裂。

7 耶和華本為善,在患難的日子為人的保障,並且認得那些投靠他的人。

8 但他必以漲溢的洪水淹沒尼尼微,又驅逐仇敵進入黑暗

9 尼尼微人哪,設何謀攻擊耶和華呢?他必將你們滅絕淨盡;災難不再興起。

10 你們像叢雜的荊棘,像喝醉了的人,又如枯乾的碎秸全然燒滅。

11 有一人從你那裡出來,圖謀邪惡,設惡計攻擊耶和華

12 耶和華如此:尼尼微雖然勢力充足,人數繁多,也被剪除,歸於無有。猶大啊,我雖然使你受苦,卻不再使你受苦。

13 現在我必從你頸項上折斷他的軛,扭開他的繩索。

14 耶和華已經出令,指著尼尼微說:你名下的人必不留後;我必從你的廟中除滅雕刻的偶像和鑄造的偶像;我必因你鄙陋,使你歸於墳墓

15 看哪,有報好信傳平安之人的,說:猶大啊,可以守你的節期,還你所許的願吧!因為那惡人不再從你中間經過,他已滅絕淨盡了。

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).
