彌迦書 3

Study

   

1 雅各的首領,以色列家的官長啊,你們要!你們不當知道公平麼?

2 你們惡善惡,從人身上剝,從人骨頭上剔肉,

3 我民的,剝他們的,打折他們的骨頭,分成塊子像要下,又像釜中的

4 到了遭災的時候,這些人必哀求耶和華,他卻不應允他們。那時他必照他們所行的惡事向他們掩面。

5 論到使我民走差先知─他們牙齒有所嚼的,他們就呼喊:平安了!凡不供他們吃的,他們就預備攻擊他(預備攻擊他:或譯必遭遇刀兵)─耶和華如此

6 你們必遭遇黑夜,以致不見異象;又必遭遇幽暗,以致不能占卜。日頭必向你們沉落,白晝變為黑暗。

7 先見必抱愧,占卜的必蒙羞,都必摀著嘴唇,因為不應允他們。

8 至於我,我藉耶和華的靈,滿有力量、公平、才能,可以向雅各說明他的過犯,向以色列指出他的惡。

9 雅各家的首領、以色列家的官長啊,當我的話!你們厭惡公平,在一切事上屈枉正直;

10 以人血建立錫安,以罪孽建造耶路撒冷

11 首領為賄賂行審判;祭司為雇價施訓誨;先知行占卜。他們卻倚賴耶和華耶和華不是在我們中間麼?災禍必不臨到我們

12 所以因你們的緣故,錫安必被耕種像一塊田,耶路撒冷必變為亂堆;這殿的必像叢林的處。

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).
