約翰三書 1:11
Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good. Anyone who does what is good is from God. Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God.
親愛的兄弟啊,不要效法惡,只要效法善。行善的屬乎神;行惡的未曾見過神。
哥林多前書 10:13
No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
你們所遇見的試探,無非是人所能受的。神是信實的,必不叫你們受試探過於所能受的;在受試探的時候,總要給你們開一條出路,叫你們能忍受得住。
哥林多前書 6:18
Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body.
你們要逃避淫行。人所犯的,無論什麼罪,都在身子以外,惟有行淫的,是得罪自己的身子。
腓立比書 4:8
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things.
弟兄們,我還有未盡的話:凡是真實的、可敬的、公義的、清潔的、可愛的、有美名的,若有什麼德行,若有什麼稱讚,這些事你們都要思念。
馬太福音 15:19
For out of the heart come evil thoughts-murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander.
因為從心裡發出來的,有惡念、兇殺、姦淫、苟合、偷盜、妄證、謗讟。
羅馬書 13:1
- 7
Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.
Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.
For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended.
For the one in authority is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God's servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer.
Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience.
This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God's servants, who give their full time to governing.
Give to everyone what you owe them: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.
在上有權柄的,人人當順服他,因為沒有權柄不是出於神的。凡掌權的都是神所命的。
所以,抗拒掌權的就是抗拒神的命;抗拒的必自取刑罰。
作官的原不是叫行善的懼怕,乃是叫作惡的懼怕。你願意不懼怕掌權的嗎?你只要行善,就可得他的稱讚;
因為他是神的用人,是與你有益的。你若作惡,卻當懼怕;因為他不是空空的佩劍,他是神的用人,是伸冤的,刑罰那作惡的。
所以你們必須順服,不但是因為刑罰,也是因為良心。
你們納糧,也為這個緣故;因他們是神的差役,常常特管這事。
凡人所當得的,就給他。當得糧的,給他納糧;當得稅的,給他上稅;當懼怕的,懼怕他;當恭敬的,恭敬他。
雅各書 4:11
Brothers and sisters, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against a brother or sister or judges them speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it.
弟兄們,你們不可彼此批評。人若批評弟兄,論斷弟兄,就是批評律法,論斷律法。你若論斷律法,就不是遵行律法,乃是判斷人的。
申命記 10:17
For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who shows no partiality and accepts no bribes.
因為耶和華你們的神他是萬神之神,萬主之主,至大的神,大有能力,大而可畏,不以貌取人,也不受賄賂。
馬太福音 5:28
But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
只是我告訴你們,凡看見婦女就動淫念的,這人心裡已經與他犯姦淫了。
馬太福音 6:6
But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
你禱告的時候,要進你的內屋,關上門,禱告你在暗中的父;你父在暗中察看,必然報答你。
約翰福音 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
「神愛世人,甚至將他的獨生子賜給他們,叫一切信他的,不至滅亡,反得永生。
申命記 15:9
Be careful not to harbor this wicked thought: "The seventh year, the year for canceling debts, is near," so that you do not show ill will toward the needy among your fellow Israelites and give them nothing. They may then appeal to the Lord against you, and you will be found guilty of sin.
你要謹慎,不可心裡起惡念,說:『第七年的豁免年快到了』,你便惡眼看你窮乏的弟兄,什麼都不給他,以致他因你求告耶和華,罪便歸於你了。
