| 慕安德烈每日靈修 God's Best Secrets by Andrew Murray | |
| 愛靈魂的心 | |
| 經文: 「這人該知道叫一個罪人從迷路上轉回，便是救一個靈魂不死，並且遮蓋許多的罪。」（雅各書五：20） | |
| 我可以將一個人從死路上挽回——這是多麼棒的一個想法！如何做到呢？若我能讓他懸崖勒馬，及時從錯誤中回頭，這就是了。叫人悔改信耶穌，不是只有傳道人能，每一個基督徒都有責任。 當基督的愛滿溢你胸懷，你自然而然想告訴別人耶穌的大愛，如此上帝的國度就擴展。初代信徒的情形就是這樣，五旬節後，門徒四出宣揚他們所經歷到的復活耶穌，這就是為何在第一世紀基督教發展這麼快速的原因，因為每個悔改重生的基督徒，都迫不及待地，想要與人分享這好消息。 但現在教會卻大為不同了，許多基督徒從未想過要傳福音，他們心中的愛是這樣微弱，以致不想付出去幫助別人；希望這樣的情形能有所轉變，盼每個基督徒能視傳福音為己任。 每個世代教會有大復興，就是因為重生得救的基督徒，個個心中火熱，熱切想與人分享這福音，到一個地步，甚至你若要進教會，要先考慮你曾帶幾個人信耶穌。 讓我們自我檢討，是否只顧念到自己與主相交的美好，卻忽略了將從上帝而來的愛與恩典，傳遞給別人。弟兄姊妹們，勇敢積極向人傳福音吧，如此你將感受到無比的平安與喜樂。 讓我們誠懇謙卑地求告上帝，將祂的大愛充滿我們的心，我們就願降服在祂的大愛之下，並甘心樂意為耶穌贏得人心歸向祂。 | |

| LOVE TO SOULS | |
| Scripture: "Know that he which converteth a sinner from the error of his way, shall save a soul from death."—JAMES v. 20. | |
| What a wonderful thought !—that I may save a soul from everlasting death. How can this be? If I convert him from the error of his ways. This is the calling not only of the minister, but of every Christian—to work for the salvation of sinners. When Christ and His love took possession of our hearts. He gave us this love that we might bring others to Him. In this way Christ's Kingdom was extended. Everyone who had the love of Christ in his heart was constrained to tell others. This was the case in the early Christian church. After the Day of Pentecost, people went out and told of the love of Christ, which they had themselves experienced. Heathen writers have told us that the rapid spread of Christianity in the first century was due to the fact, that each convert, being filled with the love of Christ, tried to bring the good news to others. What a change has come over the Church! Many Christians never try to win others to Christ. Their love is so weak and faint that they have no desire to help others. May the time soon come when Christians will feel constrained to tell of the love of Christ. In a revival in Korea a few years ago, the converts were filled with such a burning love to Christ that they felt bound to tell others of His love. It was even taken as a test of membership that each one should have brought another to the Lord before being admitted to the church. Let the reader examine himself, and pray that in fellowship with Christ, he may think, not only of his own soul, but having received the gift of God's love, he may pass it on to others. He will then know true happiness, the joy of bringing souls to Christ. Let us pray earnestly to be so filled with God's love that we may wholeheartedly surrender ourselves to win others for Him. | |
