瘋狂更新的世代—啓示錄21:5[坐寳座的說:”看哪, 我將一切都更新了.” 又說:”你要寫上, 因這些話是可信的, 是真實的.”] 不管世界多糟糕, 不管環境有多困難, 他活在他的夢想𥚃面. 要講未知, 要講未來, 要講動盪, 最適合的人是但以理. 但以理被擄的時面對的是未知, 他面對的是動盪, 他面對的是耶路撒冷. 聖城耶路撒冷淪陷了, 被擄了, 他面對的是完全沒有盼望. 但我們卻看見但以理做出他的選擇. 他依然奮力的在異鄉活出他自己的新耶路撒冷. 本節經文是在啓示錄, 因為新耶路撒冷. 我將一切都更新了. 那個時代, 為什麼約翰在拔摩海島, 因為他不肯向凱撒屈膝. 那是一個信仰被逼迫的年代, 神學家估計約翰應該超過九十歲了. 把約翰殺了也沒什麼意義. 把他流放到拔摩海島. 一位九十歲的人說我將一切都更新了. 雖然看起來, 這一位祂正要向他顯現未來的人, 現在正在拔摩海島. 看起來信仰完全是被捆住. 神竟說我將一切都更新了. 上一次, 上帝非常興奮的向但以理啓示, 將來必成的事. 那個時候是但以理國破家亡被擄的時候. 所以我們似乎明白了一件事, 最壞的時代往往也就是最好的時代. 神說我將一切都更新了. 這個世界一直在改變, 人類也-直在做這件事情. 我們在不同領域也把一切都更新了. 我們正在瘋狂的更新. 手機不斷更新. 從沒有電視, 眼睜睜看見電視誔生. 但目前的電視即將走入歷史. 走入網路時代. 我們只知道動盪已經開始了. 新的世界叫元宇宙. 上帝, 你更新了哪些東西?啓示錄2:1-2[我又看見一個新天地. 因為先前的天地已經過去了, 海也不再有了. 我又看見聖城新耶路撒冷, 神那裏從天而降, 預備好了, 就如新婦妝飾整齊, 等候丈夫.]我們正在不斷改良中, 可是聖經上說預備好了, 等待丈夫, 上帝的新耶路撒冷. 關鍵在於神的帳幕在人間. 上帝要與人同住. 我們渴望那一天. 是那一位更新萬物的神. 啓示錄21:4, 6[神要擦去他們一切的眼淚, 不再有死亡, 也不再有悲哀, 哭號, 疼痛, 因為以前的事都過去了. 祂又對我說:”都成了!我是阿拉法, 我是俄梅戛. 我是初, 我是終, 我要將生命泉的水白白的賜給那口渴的人喝.]面對瘋狂更新的世代, 啓示錄21:1-6是上帝對我們做出最完整的論述, 也是給我們最大的盼望.
The Age of Crazy Renewal—Revelation 21:5 [He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And he said, “Write, for these words are trustworthy and true. ”] No matter how bad the world is, no matter how difficult the environment is, he lives in his dream. To talk about the unknown, the future, and the turbulence, the most suitable person is Daniel. When Daniel was taken captive He faced the unknown, he faced turmoil, and he faced Jerusalem. The holy city of Jerusalem had fallen and was taken captive, and he faced no hope at all. But we saw Daniel do what he did. Choice. He still struggled to live out his own New Jerusalem in a foreign land. This verse is in the book of Revelation, because of the New Jerusalem. I have made everything new. At that time, why was John on the island of Patmos? Because he refused Bow the knee to Caesar. It was an era when faith was persecuted. Theologians estimated that John should be over ninety years old. It would be meaningless to kill John. Exile him to the island of Patmos. A ninety-year-old man said that I will Everything is made new. Although it seems that the man to whom He is about to reveal the future is now on the island of Patmos. It seems that faith is completely tied up. God actually said that I have made everything new. Last time, God was very excited to reveal to Daniel what would happen in the future. That was the time when Daniel’s country was destroyed and taken into captivity. So we seem to understand one thing, the worst times are often the best. Times. God said I have made everything new. The world has been changing, and humans have been doing this. We have also made everything new in different areas. We are updating like crazy. Mobile phones are constantly being updated. Never TV, we are watching the emergence of TV. But the current TV is about to go into history. Enter the Internet era. We only know that the turmoil has begun. The new world is called the Metaverse. God, what things have you updated? Revelation 2:1-2 [And I saw a new heaven and an earth. For the first heaven and earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned , Waiting for Husbands.] We are a work in progress, but the Bible says ready, waiting for Husbands, God’s New Jerusalem. The key is that God’s tabernacle is on earth. God will dwell with people. We long for that day. It’s that day. The God who renews all things. Revelation 21:4, 6 [And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death, nor mourning, nor crying, nor pain; for the former things have passed away. I said, “It is done! I am Alpha and Omega. I am the beginning and I am the end, and I will give the water of the fountain of life freely to him who is thirsty to drink.” Facing Madness Update In this era, Revelation 21:1-6 is God’s most complete statement to us and also gives us the greatest hope.
