角聲吹響


  角是讚美神的樂器,《詩篇》教導我們要用角聲讚美祂,我也在學習當中!但不知道是否技巧不正確還是沒有恩賜,總是會吹到漏風。如燕就比我好一點,能吹出一些響聲,但老實說與水平還差很遠!

  昨晚在我家中開組,大家準備離開時;我興起拿起角來吹,只見組員們慌忙地用手掩鼻;並嚷著:「好羶呀!好羶呀!」之後便急忙穿衣、穿鞋離開!原來吹角的第一步:「唔怕羶」!

  今晚繼續《使徒行傳》的主日學,測驗中的其中一條是非題:「掃羅是否在大馬色路上看見耶穌?是或非?」

  正確答案:「掃羅行路,將到大馬士革,忽然從天上發光,四面照著他;他就仆倒在地,聽見有聲音對他說:『掃羅!掃羅!你為甚麼逼迫我?』」(使徒行傳9:3-4)

  掃羅是看見光,他是聽見耶穌;並不是看見耶穌!百多人中;只有不足十人沒有被牧師「陰」到!唉,大家讀經要小心一點呀!

Robin 說...

Well, I don't think your pastor is right. Paul did see the Lord Jesus, and this is how he claimed his apostleship before the people in the Corinth church. In 1 Corinthians 9:1, “...Have I not seen Jesus our Lord?...” This verse is, in fact, in reference to the Damascus experience. 1 Corinthians 15:8 supports that as well.

In Acts 9:17, the verse that talks about Paul’s encounter with Ananias, ...“Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus who appeared to you on the road by which you came…
The word “appeared” in Greek is ὀφθείς, (lit. having been seen) (verb, aorist, passive, participle, singular, nominative, masculine) from the root word ὁράω (to see). [Something he received by sight.]

Therefore, Paul did see Jesus our Lord, not just heard His voice. Yes, Paul, according to Acts 9:3, saw a light from heaven, but one must accept the fact that there are times our Lord Jesus described as the Light. Many scholars agreed that this light from heaven, in Paul’s Damascus experience, is the glory of Christ.

Well, I think we should be even more careful reading the Word of God, not just picking from a verse only. Hope it helps.

God bless,
