True Sowing And Reaping (Chinese/English)

Hosea 10

何西阿书10

12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.

你们要为自己栽种公义,就能收割慈爱。现今正是寻求耶和华的时候;你们要开垦荒地,等他临到,使公义如雨降在你们身上。


13 Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity; ye have eaten the fruit of lies: because thou didst trust in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men.

13你们耕种的是奸恶

True Sowing And Reaping
真正的播种与收

This is a powerful analogy, all through scripture, there is this focus on sowing and reaping.
这是一个有力的类比,整篇圣经都在强调播种与收

Today, such as the preachers of the prosperity gospel refer to monetary matters, but in reality, it relates to our spiritual lives.
今天,如成功神学的传教士提到金钱问题,但在现实中,它涉及到我们的属灵生活。

Hosea is coming to the end of his prophecy, he has bought back his errant wife, this truly is a wonderful picture of Jesus.
何西阿即将完成他的预言,他回了他不洁的妻子,这确实是耶稣的一幅精彩画面。

Micah in his prophecy says these words
弥迦在预言中说:

6 “With what shall I come before the Lord,
and bow myself before God on high?
Shall I come before him with burnt offerings,
with calves a year old?
7 Will the Lord be pleased with[a] thousands of rams,
with ten thousand of rivers of oil?
Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression,
the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?”
8 He has told you, O man, what is good;
and what does the Lord require of you
but to do justice, and to love kindness,[b]
and to walk humbly with your God?
我朝见耶和华,

在至高 神面前跪拜,当献上什么呢?
岂可献一岁的牛犊为燔祭吗?
耶和华岂喜悦千千的公羊,
或是万万的油河吗?
我岂可为自己的罪过献我的长子吗?
为心中的罪恶献我身所生的吗?
世人哪,耶和华已指示你何为善。
他向你所要的是什么呢?只要你行公义,好怜悯,
存谦卑的心,与你的 神同行。


These two verses in Hosea are almost reflections of what was said in Micah.
何西阿书的这两节经文几乎是《弥迦书》的写照。你在生活中播种了什么?

What have you been sowing in your life?
你在实际生活中 播种了什么呢

You sow sin in your life, you sow wickedness in your life, your life will be one of iniquity, poisoned by sin.
你在你的生命中播种罪恶,你在你的生命中播种邪恶,你的生命将是罪孽之一,被罪恶毒害。

The call here is to sow righteousness, there are two promises here, if we sow righteousness, we will reap mercy, our lives will be transformed by God’s mercy. If we truly seek God, if we break up the fallow ground, we will reap mercy. But this takes effort, it does not come easily. We have to seek God, it says that I will be found of you, if you seek me with your whole heart. Look at the words seek and whole heart.
这里的呼召是播种公义,这里有两个应许,如果我们播种公义,我们就会收获怜悯,我们的生命会因神的怜悯而改变。如果我们真正寻求上帝,如果我们开垦荒地,我们就会收获仁慈。但这需要努力,来之不易。我们必须寻求上帝,文中说,我将被你找到,如果你全心全意地寻找我,看看这句话,寻求,全身心。

The second is that He will reign righteousness upon us, if we seek righteousness and seek God with our whole heart, He will rain righteousness upon us. People can come to God, and He will give them, the righteousness of His own beloved Son, we will stand righteous before Him, not because of anything we have done, but because of everything Christ has done.
第二就是他要作公义的王在我们身上。我们若寻求公义,一心寻求神,他就必使公义如雨降在我们身上。人们可以来到上帝面前,他会把他爱子的公义赐给他们,我们会站在他面前称义,不是因为我们做过什么,而是因为基督所做的一切。

The call of the scriptures is to look to Christ and be saved. The call is to turn from your sin and to seek the Lord.
圣经的呼召是信靠基督而得救。神的呼召是叫你离开罪,寻求主。

Have you done that?

你做到了吗

For the believer reading this, are you sowing into your life wickedness and compromise? If you are doing this, then you need to repent and seek the Lord.
读到这里的信徒,你是在你的生命中播种邪恶和妥协吗?如果你正在这样做,那么你需要悔改并寻求主。里的信徒,你是在你的生命中播种邪恶和妥协吗?如果你正在这样做,那么你需要悔改并寻求主。
