七十五、圣经与外在方式

155问：圣经怎样生发效力，使人得救呢？

答：圣灵使读经，尤其是讲道，成为有效的外在方式:

  1. 启迪罪人（尼8:8；徒26:18；诗19:8），使其知罪谦卑（林前14:24－25；代下34:18－19，26－28）；
  2. 驱使他们脱离自我，吸引他们归向基督（徒2:37，41；8:27－39）；
  3. 使他们合乎祂的形状（林后3:18），征服他们，使其顺服祂的旨意（林后10:4－6；罗6:17）；
  4. 坚固他们，抵挡各样的试探和败坏（太4:4，7，10；弗6:16－17；诗19:11；林前10:11）；
  5. 在恩典中把他们建造起来（徒20:32；提后3:15－17），使他们的心藉信得救,成为圣洁，得着安慰（罗16:25；帖前3:2，10－11，13；罗15:4；10:13-17；1:6）。

Q. 155. How is the word made effectual to salvation?

A. The Spirit of God maketh the reading, but especially the preaching of the word, an effectual means of enlightening, convincing, and humbling sinners; of driving them out of themselves, and drawing them unto Christ; of conforming them to his image, and subduing them to his will; of strengthening them against temptations and corruptions; of building them up in grace, and establishing their hearts in holiness and comfort through faith unto salvation.
