人是看不到魔鬼的,有些人可能会看到,或许因为有阴阳眼。但是人可以听到魔鬼的声音,魔鬼喜欢在人被试探的时候把一些画面放入人的脑,引诱人犯罪。它是很聪明的,它不会直接叫你去犯罪,而是一步一步引诱你跌入陷阱,误入歧途,然后一失足成千古恨。它用环境和各种东西试探/诱惑你,让你经不起考验,然后失败。人的尽头是神的开始,这个时候就是神要拯救人的时候。
当人的亲人患上绝症,人的心里就着急,会到处借钱或向人募捐,如果无法做到或许就会去偷或抢,因为情况所逼。还有,如果人的生活/工作压力太大,无法放松就会失眠,情绪会失控,造成家庭暴力。当人的恼怒、嫉妒、怨恨和苦毒被激起,人就会恶待别人,或者伤害人。
有些女孩子看到别人有名牌包包就很羡慕,甚至妒忌,因为买不起,于是就出卖肉体。有些人看到别人富有便心存不甘,认为为什么别人有而我没有,就产生妒忌的心理,然后就去盗取别人的财物,他们甚至去强暴有钱人的女儿,发泄对生活的不满。这些都是罪。
他们没有想到有些富人曾经非常节俭省用,而且十分辛勤劳苦,每一分每一毫都是血汗钱,他们不明白君子爱财,取之有道的道理。
人被试探,不可说:“我是被神试探”;因为神不能被恶试探,他也不试探人。 但各人被试探,乃是被自己的私欲牵引诱惑的。 私欲既怀了胎,就生出罪来;罪既长成,就生出死来。(雅各书1:13-15 和合本)
Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one. But each one is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desires. Then when desire conceives, it gives birth to sin, and when sin is full grown, it gives birth to death. (James1:13-15 NET)
神爱世人,甚至将他的独生子赐给他们,叫一切信他的,不至灭亡,反得永生。 因为神差他的儿子降世,不是要定世人的罪(或译:审判世人;下同),乃是要叫世人因他得救。 (约翰福音3:16-17 和合本)
For this is the way God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world should be saved through him. (John3:16-17 NET)
不是我们爱神,乃是神爱我们,差他的儿子为我们的罪作了挽回祭,这就是爱了。 (约翰一书4:10 和合本) In this is love: not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins.(1 John4:10 NET)
因为罪的工价乃是死;惟有神的恩赐,在我们的主基督耶稣里,乃是永生。(罗马书6:23 和合本) For the payoff of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.(Romans6:23 NET)
世人都犯了罪,亏缺了神的荣耀; 如今却蒙神的恩典,因基督耶稣的救赎,就白白地称义。 神设立耶稣作挽回祭,是凭着耶稣的血,藉着人的信,要显明神的义;因为他用忍耐的心宽容人先时所犯的罪, (罗马书3:23-25 和合本)
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. But they are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. God publicly displayed him at his death as the mercy seat accessible through faith. This was to demonstrate his righteousness, because God in his forbearance had passed over the sins previously committed.(Romans3:23-25 NET)
