耶稣在哪里?
Where is Jesus Christ?
“不但如此,我也将万事当作有损的,因我以认识我主基督耶稣为至宝……”
—–腓3:8
Everything else is worthless when compared with the priceless gain of knowing Christ Jesus . . .
—Philippians 3:8 (TLB)
“耶稣在哪里?”无数学生在研究耶稣,不能确定基督和他的福音是否真的重要,与这个时代是否相关。C.S路易斯,是牛津大学和后来剑桥大学的中世纪和文艺复兴文学的教授,也做了同样的研究。他用毕生的时间来探索数世纪以来伟大的文学。在他著名的自传《意外的惊喜》中,讲述了自己从无神论到基督教信仰的探索之旅。他的转折点在于,他认识到,像奥古斯丁、布莱斯·帕斯卡、乔治·麦克唐纳等人所写的具有最深刻意义和最丰富内容的著作是基于对上帝的一种最深的个人信仰。
“Where is Jesus Christ?” Innumerable students are studying Him and deciding whether or not Christ and the Gospel really matter-whether He is relevant in this modern age. C.S. Lewis, a professor of Medieval and Renaissance Literature at Oxford and later at Cambridge, had to do the same thing. He spent his life exploring the great literature of centuries. In his remarkable autobiography, Surprised by Joy, he tells of his pilgrimage from atheism to Christianity. His turning point came with the realization that the writing with the deepest meaning and greatest content was based on a deep, personal faith in God, by men like Augustine, Blaise Pascal, George Macdonald.
每日祷告
主耶稣,我不渴望其他什么,只想与你亲密同行,噢,我的救赎主。
Prayer for the day
There is nothing more I desire, Lord Jesus, than to walk closely with You—my Savior and Lord.
