真相大白—-哥林多後書13:8［我們凡事不能抵擋真理, 只能扶助真理.］［故事］一百多年前, 俄國降下大雪, 氣溫突然下降到零下30度. 軍營裏開始發軍大衣了. 可是軍大衣上連一顆鈕扣也沒有. 沙皇知道了這件事很生氣, 傳令把監制軍服的大臣找來問罪. 大臣說”這事奇怪了, 我曾經到過製軍衣的工廠去. 親眼見製衣廠的工人把一顆顆閃閃發亮的鍚鈕扣釘上去的呀！”. 沙皇吹鬍子瞪眼睛”可是事實上, 現在連半個鈕扣也沒有了！你快去查清楚到底是誰在搞鬼！” 大臣嚇得連聲說”是！”. 馬上到倉庫裏去調查. 管理倉庫的官員也不解的說”軍大衣運來時, 確實是有錫鈕扣的, 一直到發放軍大衣時才打開倉庫.” 這位大臣有個朋友, 是個科學家. 他聽說這件事後, 就對大臣道出了錫鈕扣失蹤的祕密. 科學家對沙皇說”錫有特性, 在攝氏13點變以下, 就會慢慢變成鬆散的灰色粉末. 而現在氣溫已經到了零下30度, 怎麼還能期望錫鈕扣不失蹤呢？”沙皇還不大相信, 科學家就拿了一個錫酒壺放到皇宮外的台階上. 幾天後再去看, 手一碰上去, 那錫酒壺果然變成一堆粉末. 於是, 那大臣被宣告無罪. ［思考］人與人之間常發生誤會, 試著從不同的角度, 體會事情的真相, 真理是無法隱藏的, 凡事在真理的檢驗下都會現出真實的面目. ［禱告］親愛的天父上帝, 祢是道路, 真理和生命, 我們跟隨祢, 就走在真道上. 我們要常常親近祢, 讓主的愛和真理在我們心中, 使我們與人相處時, 雖然有時會有誤會, 但我們能夠以溫柔的心相待, 瞭解事情的真相而化解誤會, 學習朋友之間能夠彼此相愛. 禱告是奉主耶穌基督的名, 阿們！
The truth is revealed – 2 Corinthians 13:8 [We cannot resist the truth in anything, we can only support the truth.] [Story] More than a hundred years ago, heavy snow fell in Russia, and the temperature suddenly dropped to minus 30 degrees. It started in the military camp. Military coats were issued. But there was not even a button on the military coat. When the Tsar found out about this, he was very angry and ordered the minister who supervised the production of military uniforms to be summoned for questioning. The minister said, “This is strange. I have been to the military uniforms before.” I went to the garment factory and saw with my own eyes that the workers in the garment factory were nailing shiny buttons one after another!” The tsar puffed his beard and stared, “But in fact, there are not even half a button left!” Go and find out who is doing this!” The minister was so frightened that he kept saying “Yes!”. He immediately went to the warehouse to investigate. The official in charge of the warehouse also said incomprehensively, “When the military coats arrived, they did have tin buttons. The warehouse was not opened until military coats were issued.” The minister had a friend who was a scientist. After hearing about this, he told the minister the secret of the missing tin buttons. The scientist said to the tsar, “Tin buttons are missing. It has special properties. When the temperature drops below 13 degrees Celsius, it will slowly turn into loose gray powder. And now the temperature has reached minus 30 degrees, how can we expect that the tin buttons will not disappear?” The tsar still didn’t believe it, but the scientists asked He took a tin jug and placed it on the steps outside the palace. When he looked at it a few days later, when his hand touched it, the tin jug turned into a pile of powder. So, the minister was acquitted. [Thinking] Man Misunderstandings often occur with people. Try to understand the truth of things from different angles. The truth cannot be hidden. Everything will show its true face under the test of the truth. [Prayer] Dear Heavenly Father God, You are Way, truth and life, when we follow you, we walk on the true way. We must always be close to you and let the love and truth of the Lord be in our hearts, so that when we get along with others, although there are sometimes misunderstandings, we can be gentle Treat each other with a sincere heart, understand the truth of the matter and resolve misunderstandings, and learn that friends can love each other. This prayer is in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!
