如何得救、解脫?How to Be Saved?

【 真的解脫?真的得救?】

得救就是愛,是共存,是自由。愛的愈多,就愈自由。

解脫得救到底是什麼?有些人誤解聖經的意思,認為得救就是不下地獄。………….

但這種想法非常不公平和不道德,因為聽起來像勒索,像恐怖的威脅:不信就得下地獄???怎麼可能去愛一位威脅我的神呢?也有些人認為得救就是脫離世俗,成為虛無。

但真正的得救是活在愛裡,與神、與所有的弟兄姐妹、與萬物,一起活在神愛的光中。當我愛的愈多,我的存在就越深刻,我就愈能夠從自我的惡劣態度、自私和利己的疾病中解脫得救。得救不是去到某個地方,天堂或地獄。得救就是合而為一,我們日後會再解釋。

“使他們都合而為一。正如你父在我裏面,我在你裏面,使他們也在我們裏面,叫世人可以信你差了我來。……我在他們裏面,你在我裏面,使他們完完全全地合而為一,叫世人知道你差了我來,也知道你愛他們如同愛我一樣。”(約翰福音 17:21、23)

Salvation is love, is coexistence, is freedom.

What do we mean by salvation? Some people misunderstand what the Bible says. They think that salvation is that I do not go to the hell. But this is very unfair and unethical, because it sounds as blackmail, as terrible threat. How to love a God who threatens me? Others think that salvation is to escape of the world and be nothing.

But salvation is to be in love, with God and all my brothers and sisters and all creation, all together in the loving light of God. The more I love the more I exist, the more I am saved from the disease of my bad attitudes, my selfishness and individuality. Salvation is not to go somewhere, to paradise or hell. But to be one, as we will say in other posts.

“That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.” (John 17:21、23)
