留心神的带领

Mindful of the Leading of God

律法是我们训蒙的师傅，引我们到基督那里，使我们因信称义。

——加3:24

Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
—Galatians 3:24

当神赐下律法的时候，他早已知道人们不可能遵守它。很多人感到困惑，如果神知道人不可能遵守律法，为什么还要赐下律法呢？圣经教导我们律法就像镜子一样，透过研读律法，我们可以看到自己的属灵状况，看到自己的差距，这驱使我们来到耶稣的十字架旁，请求神的饶恕。圣经也教导我们，基督来到世上把我们从律法之下解救出来，因为人根本无法遵守律法，人已被律法定罪。

When God gave the law, He knew that man was incapable of keeping it. Many persons are confused as to why God gave the law, if He knew man could not possibly keep it. The Bible teaches that the law was given as a mirror; I look into the law and see my spiritual condition. I see how far short I come, and this drives me to the cross of Christ for forgiveness. The Bible teaches that this is why Christ came-to redeem them that were under the law. Man could not keep the law; he was condemned by the law.
