耶和华作王,世界就坚定,不得动摇;祂要按公正审判众民。 —诗篇96篇10节

最近,我被指派去担任陪审员,这表示我将要承受极大的不便,而且要耗费许多时间,
但当然,这也是一件责任重大的事。在第一天的说明会上,法官讲解我们的责任与这项
工作的重要性。我们即将要对他人的民事纠纷或刑事案件作出判决。对于这任务,我强
烈感到自己不能胜任。要对他人的行为下判断,而且所下的决定会对他人的生命带来重
大的影响,这可不是一件简单的事情。因为我们都不完全,无法每次都做出正确的判断
。
堕落的人类根本不完全,而这世界的司法制度却是由我们人类来管理,因此这制度难免
有缺陷。然而,我们可以信靠上帝以智慧和公平胜过这些难处。诗人高唱:「耶和华作
王,世界就坚定,不得动摇;祂要按公正审判众民」(诗篇96篇10节)。上帝按公义审
判,祂的公义就是以祂完全的公正和无瑕的特质来界定。
当生命看似不公平时,我们可以信靠上帝,并相信祂在最后审判之日必使一切都归回正
途(哥林多后书5章10节)。 WEC
在世上最好的法官,
并非总是正确公平;
但上帝是唯一公义,
在祂里面绝无失误。 Egner
到那日,上帝必使每件事都归正。 | Q*******e 发帖数: 57 | 2 Serious Business

Read: Psalm 96
The Lord reigns; the world also is firmly established, it shall not be moved
; He shall judge the peoples righteously. —Psalm 96:10
Bible in a year:
Song of Solomon 1-3; Galatians 2
Recently I was called for jury duty. It meant extraordinary inconvenience an
d lots of lost time, but it was also serious business. During the first day’
s orientation, the judge lectured us on the responsibility at hand and the i
mportant nature of the task. We were going to sit in judgment of people who
either had disputes (civil court) or were charged with crimes (criminal cour
t). I felt a great sense of inadequacy for the task at hand. Passing judgmen
t on another person, with serious life consequences riding on the decision,
is not a simple thing. Because we’re flawed human beings, we may not always
make the right judgments.
While the justice systems of our world might struggle and falter because of
the inherent failings of the humans that manage them, we can always trust ou
r God to excel in wisdom and fairness. The psalmist sang, “The Lord reigns;
the world also is firmly established, it shall not be moved; He shall judge
the peoples righteously” (Ps. 96:10). God judges according to righteousnes
s—defined by His own perfect justice and flawless character.
We can trust God now when life seems unfair, knowing that He will one day ma
ke all things right in His final court (2 Cor. 5:10).
The best of judges on this earth
Aren’t always right or fair;
But God, the righteous Judge of all,
Wrongs no one in His care. —Egner
One day God will right every wrong. | Q*******e 发帖数: 57 | | Q*******e 发帖数: 57 | 4 2011-09-23
