021107 阴晴不定

身为基督徒的我们，常会迷迷糊糊的过日子，以为偶尔所做的举动不会“影响”自己或别人就不甚在意，可是岂不知当我们无形中被一些恶者的圈套套着时，我们还懵然不知而违背了 神的祝福和教导成为悖逆之子。身边的人也被我们影响而软弱，而身为基督徒常不经意做的其中之一事，就是查星座和看生肖。 神在申命记Deuteronomy4:15-24很清楚的意表了他的旨意…

所以，你們要分外謹慎；因為耶和華在何烈山、從火中對你們說話的那日，你們沒有看見甚麼形像。惟恐你們敗壞自己，雕刻偶像，彷彿甚麼男像女像，或地上走獸的像，或空中飛鳥的像，或地上爬物的像，或地底下水中魚的像。又恐怕你向天舉目觀看，見耶和華－你的　神為天下萬民所擺列的日月星，就是天上的萬象，自己便被勾引敬拜事奉它。耶和華將你們從埃及領出來脫離鐵爐、要特作自己產業的子民，像今日一樣。耶和華又因你們的緣故向我發怒，起誓必不容我過約但河，也不容我進入耶和華你　神所賜你為業的那美地。我只得死在這地，不能過約但河；但你們必過去得那美地。你們要謹慎、免得忘記耶和華－你們　神與你們所立的約，為自己雕刻偶像，就是耶和華你　神所禁止你作的偶像，因為耶和華你的　神乃是烈火、是忌邪的　神。 And the Lord gave me orders at that time to make clear to you these laws and decisions, so that you might do them in the land to which you are going, and which is to be your heritage. So keep watch on yourselves with care; for you saw no form of any sort on the day when the voice of the Lord came to you in Horeb out of the heart of the fire: So that you may not be turned to evil ways and make for yourselves an image in the form of any living thing, male or female, Or any beast of the earth, or winged bird of the air, Or of anything which goes flat on the earth, or any fish in the water under the earth. And when your eyes are lifted up to heaven, and you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the army of heaven, do not let yourselves be moved to give them worship, or become the servants of what the Lord has given equally to all peoples under heaven. But the Lord has taken you out of the flaming fire, out of Egypt, to be to him the people of his heritage, as you are today. And the Lord was angry with me because of you, and made an oath that I was not to go over Jordan into the good land which the Lord is giving you for your heritage: But death is to come to me in this land, I may not go over Jordan: but you will go over and take that good land for your heritage. Take care that you do not let the agreement of the Lord your God, which he has made with you, go out of your mind, or make for yourselves images of any sort, against the orders which the Lord your God has given you.
