Getting You Out Of A Tight Squeeze 把你从困境中救出来

2 PETER 2
彼得后书 2

5 And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
并且没有宽容上古的世界，只拯救了传义道的挪亚一家八口，那时洪水临到那不敬虔之人的世界；

6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly;
又把所多玛、蛾摩拉城焚烧成灰，定为倾覆的例子，给后世不敬虔的人看；

7 And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked:
却救了那因恶人淫行而心里忧伤的义人罗得：

8 (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;)
（因为那义人住在他们中间，天天看见听见他们不法的事，他的义心就受痛苦；）

9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:
主知道怎样搭救敬虔的人脱离试探，把不义的人留待审判的日子受刑罚：

GETTING YOU OUT OF A TIGHT SQUEEZE
把你从困境中救出来

As Christians, we often get ourselves into tight squeezes, some of our own making and some of the making of others and outside circumstances.
作为基督徒，我们常常让自己陷入困境，有些是我们自己造成的，有些是别人和外界环境造成的。

But in verse 9, we have this amazing promise. the Lord knows how to rescue you.
但在第9节，我们有这个奇妙的应许：主知道怎样搭救你。

In the verses before verse 9, we have two people who were in very difficult situations.
在第9节之前的经文中，有两个人处于非常艰难的境地。

One of these people was righteous Noah, the world was completely evil and yet this man found favour with God. God provided the ark, which is a picture of Christ.
其中一人是义人挪亚，当时世界完全邪恶，但这个人却蒙神悦纳。神提供了方舟，这是基督的预表。

Whatever terrible situation, God will always make a way of escape.
无论多么可怕的处境，神总会开辟一条逃生的道路。

1 Corinthians 10
哥林多前书 10

13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
你们所遇见的试探，无非是人所能受的。神是信实的，必不叫你们受试探过于所能受的；在受试探的时候，总要给你们开一条出路，叫你们能忍受得住。

Noah was laughed at, he was ridiculed.
挪亚被人嘲笑，被人讥讽。

What you are building that boat for?
“你造那船干什么？”

Why are you still righteous?
“你为什么还保持义？”

Secondly, there is Lot, now you may think that Lot was not a true believer, but scripture makes it clear that he was.
其次是罗得，你可能认为罗得不是真信徒，但圣经清楚表明他是。

He made so many bad choices, he choose the wrong option virtually all the time.
他做了很多错误的决定，几乎每次都选错了。

But God made a way of escape, he sent two angels to bring him and his family out of Sodom and to safety, even then he made terrible mistakes.
但神开辟了逃生之路，差遣两位天使把他和家人从所多玛带到安全之地，即便那时他仍犯了可怕的错误。

My point is that God knows who are his and he knows how to deliver them.
我的要点是：神知道谁是属于他的，他知道怎样搭救他们。

Are you like Noah and Lot, living in the midst of idolatry and sin. Maybe you are working in a place where cursing and blasphemy are the order of the day.
你是否像挪亚和罗得一样，生活在偶像崇拜和罪恶之中？也许你工作的地方，咒骂和亵渎是家常便饭。

God knows your situation and he knows how to deliver you and to deal with those people who are either blaspheming or cursing his name.
神知道你的处境，他知道怎样搭救你，也知道怎样对付那些亵渎或咒骂他名的人。

This is a wonderful promise, we can hold on to.
这是一个奇妙的应许，我们可以紧紧抓住。

God bless you
愿神赐福你
