何西阿書 6

Study

   

1 來罷,我們歸向耶和華!他撕裂我們,也必醫治;他打傷我們,也必纏裹。

2 過兩他必使我們甦醒,第三他必使我們興起,我們就在他面前得以存活。

3 我們務要認識耶和華,竭力追求認識他。他出現確如晨光,他必臨到我們像甘,像滋潤田的春

4 主說:以法蓮哪,我可向你怎樣行呢?猶大啊,我可向你怎樣做呢?因為你們的良善如同早晨霧,又如速散的甘

5 因此,我藉先知砍伐他們,以我中的殺戮他們;我施行的審判如發出。

6 我喜愛良善(或譯:憐恤),不喜愛祭祀;喜愛認識,勝於燔祭。

7 他們卻如亞當背約,在境內向我行事詭詐。

8 基列是作孽之人的城,被血沾染。

9 強盜成群,怎樣埋伏殺祭司結黨,也照樣在示劍的上殺戮,行了邪惡。

10 以色列家,我見了可憎的事;在以法蓮那裡有淫行,以色列被玷污。

11 猶大啊,我使被擄之民歸回的時候,必有為你所命定的收場。

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).
