21/1/2024 爱心的实在

林后8:6-8

因此我劝提多、既然在你们中间开办这慈惠的事、就当办成了。你们既然在信心、口才、知识、热心、和待我们的爱心上、都格外显出满足来、就当在这慈惠的事上、也格外显出满足来。我说这话、不是吩咐你们、乃是借着别人的热心、试验你们爱心的实在。

So we urged Titus, that as he made a beginning before, so he would also complete in you this grace. But as you abound in everything, in faith, utterance, knowledge, all earnestness, and in your love to us, see that you also abound in this grace. I speak not by way of commandment, but as proving through the earnestness of others the sincerity also of your love.

主耶稣！是的, 我们经常说要作的善行, 稍微有点阻力, 心里不喜悦, 就会寻求借口, 不去完成任务。主啊！求神赦免我们在爱心上的不真实。求神为我打开传福音的门, 有实在爱失丧灵魂的心。
