生命沒有回程票 (關國瑞牧師)
經文:路加福音 23:33,39–43
我們如同坐在「生命的列車」上、無人能預知何時下車、拿著的是一張只去不回的單程票。故此、當珍惜你生命的旅程呀!
聖經記載了很多「生命邊緣人」的故事,好像和耶穌同釘十字架的兩個強盜,其中一個能抓住千載難逢、絕處逢生的好機會,把生命翻轉! 他是怎樣做到的:
一、他認識自己 –
二、他知道有神 –
三、他需要耶穌 –

可以說,他是聖經中、信心最偉大的人,因為他信的這位耶穌,是與他一同被釘在十字架上,同樣將要面對死亡,卻不能從十字架上下來救自己的耶穌!然而、主耶穌立刻以「樂園的應許」回答他 :「今日你要同我在樂園裡了!」

路加福音 23:33 (和合本)
- 到了一個地方,名叫髑髏地,就在那裡把耶穌釘在十字架上,又釘了兩個犯人:一個在左邊,一個在右邊。
路加福音 23:39-43 (和合本)
- 那同釘的兩個犯人,有一個譏誚他,說:「你不是基督嗎?可以救自己和我們吧!」
- 那一個就應聲責備他,說:「你既是一樣受刑的,還不怕 神嗎?
- 我們是應該的,因我們所受的與我們所做的相稱,但這個人沒有做過一件不好的事。」
- 就說:「耶穌啊,你得國降臨的時候,求你記念我!」
- 耶穌對他說:「我實在告訴你:今日你要同我在樂園裡了。」
Luke 23:33 (NIV)
- When they came to the place called the Skull, they crucified him there, along with the criminals—one on his right, the other on his left.
Luke 23:39-43 (NIV)
- One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: “Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!”
- But the other criminal rebuked him. “Don’t you fear God,” he said, “since you are under the same sentence?
- We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”
- Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.”
- Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”
