经文：希伯来书 12：15   Scripture: Hebrews 12:15

 “务要谨慎，不能让你们当中有人失了神的恩。” “Look after each other so that none of you fails to receive the grace of God.”

罗马书5：20  Romans 5：20

神的律法本是外添的，叫過犯显多；只是人的罪在那里显多，神的恩典就更显多了。God’s law was given so that all people could see how sinful they were. But as people sinned more and more, God’s wonderful grace became more abundant.

以弗所书 4:1   Ephesians 4:1

我为主被囚的劝你们：既然蒙召，行事为人就当与蒙召的恩相称。Therefore I, a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God.

哥林多后书 9：8   2 Corinthians 9:8

神能将各样的恩惠多多的加给你们，使你们凡事常常充足，能多行各样善事。And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that always having all sufficiency in everything, you may have an abundance for every good deed.

(一)     生为基督徒， 我们生活在一个罪人成圣的团体里面。在我们当中，有一些信徒还在与罪恶挣扎，还在摸索神恩与赦免对他们的意义。希伯来书的写者勉励我们，“务要谨慎，”意思是我们应该互相看顾与关怀，不能让我们当中，在我们的生活与敬拜团体里面，有人失去了神的恩。

(二)     犯罪的人作恶更深，越显多；神的恩典显得更多，更深。即使有犯罪多深的人，罪恶多端的人；神的恩典也够用。这显明了神恩的毅力与深奥。

(三)     神已经救赎了我们，教导我们的生活要与蒙召的恩相称；并结义与善的果子。因为神能将各样的恩惠多多的加添给我们，使我们凡事常常充足，能多行各样的善事。

神的恩典是奇异的、是丰满的、是永远存在的！

1.   As Christians, we live in a community of sinners turning into saints, there are believers among us who are still struggling with their sins and grappling with the full meaning and impact of God’s grace and forgiveness. The writer of the book of Hebrews exhorts us to “look after each other” or to “see to it” that no one among us, in the Christian community that we live and worship, will fall short of the grace of God.

2.   The more sinful people are, even more abundant is God’s grace. God’s grace is enough even for very, very sinful people. That’s the power and immeasurable nature of God’s grace.

3.    God has saved us, and also given us instructions to live a worthy life and bear the fruit of righteousness and good deeds. And God is able to make all (kinds of) grace abound toward us, so that we might have enough in everything for all kinds of good deeds.

God’s grace is amazing, abundant and always available!
