11-24節--神的恩典

路加福音 第15章

我們若要選出聖經中最動人的故事，今天查考的這段經文一定榜上有名。它除了講述浪子的故事之外，它的信息更清楚勾劃出聖經的核心要旨。

人因著犯罪而與神隔絕；然而，神卻因著祂的恩典與慈愛，差派祂的兒子降世，去尋找和拯救罪人，將人領到神的面前。每當有罪人悔改，歸回神的身邊，神就非常的歡喜快樂。路加福音十五章4至7節的失羊比喻，8至10節的失錢比喻，以致11至24節的浪子比喻，都清楚描述了這點。

羊因著自己的愚昧和頑固而走迷。人的粗心大意，以致遺失了錢。浪子則因為偏行己路而離棄父親。但最終，無論是迷羊、失錢和浪子都被尋回。所有人都因著浪子被尋回而興高采烈，惟獨他的哥哥卻因妒忌而生氣。

在浪子的故事中，走迷的兒子究竟有一個還是兩個？大兒子從來沒有離開家門，可是，他卻似乎從沒感受到父親對他的愛。當父親擺設筵席的時候，他卻留在田間。請留意他在第29至31節對父親所說的話是何等的尖酸刻薄！

你猜故事的結局是怎樣？父親的一番軟言細語，能否軟化大兒子的硬心？他會與父親一同進去坐席，一家人共聚歡談嗎？這會否是他們一家人幾個月來第一次的促膝談心？

你可以在這三個故事裡面找到自己的角色嗎？究竟誰人有責任出去尋找迷失的羊？豈不是我們信徒的責任嗎？我們有沒有盡忠職守，去尋找迷失的羊，抑或只顧過著平安穩妥的生活？

牢記：

基督今天正要使用我們去做祂的工作。

GOD’S GRACE SEEN IN STORY AND PICTURE
BIBLE READING: Luke 15: 11 – 24

If you had to select a list of the greatest chapters in the Bible you would surely include this chapter. Besides giving us the story of the Prodigal Son, this chapter gives us a clear picture of what the Bible is all about.

Man had become separated from God by sin. But God in love and grace gave his Son so that man could be brought back to him. God rejoices over each sinner who returns to him. That is what these stories illustrate. (The story of the lost sheep is found in verses 4 – 7, the lost coin in verses 8 – 10.)

The sheep was lost to safety through its own stupidly and stubbornness. The coin was lost to usefulness through someone’s carelessness. The son was lost to fellowship through his own willfulness. But each was found. Everyone rejoiced over the finding of the lost son except the older brother.

How many boys were really lost in that story? One or two? The older brother never life home, but it seems he was far away from the father’s loving heart. He was in the fields when he should have been at the feast. Notice his harsh words in verses 29 – 31.

How does that story end? Do you think the father’s gracious words melted the older brother’s hard heart? Did he find real fellowship at the table with his father which perhaps they had not known for many months?

Can you find yourself in any of these stories? Who is doing the shepherd’s work of finding lost sheep today? It’s our responsibility, isn’t it? Are we doing it or are we just enjoying our own safety and security?

REMEMBER:

Christ has no hands but our hands to do his work today.
