Psalm 詩篇 19
1 The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. 2 Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. 3 There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard.4 Their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world.
1. 諸天述說 神的榮耀,穹蒼傳揚他手的作為。2 這日到那日發出言語,這夜到那夜傳出知識。3 無言無語,也無聲音可聽。4 它們的聲浪傳遍天下,它們的言語傳到地極。
God created the heavens and the earth by His Word (Gen.1:3) and He continues to speak day by day. Creation is the general revelation of God to all men, telling us there is a God who has created the world. The universe did not come about by propitious accidents of evolution. Romans 1:20 says that God’s existence “has been clearly perceived and … so that [men] are without excuse.” Creation is therefore God’s wordless book to prove God exists but we still need God’s special revelation, His Word, to tell us about God. The Bible, God’s Word, points to and is fulfilled by Jesus Christ. The fool says in his heart: “There is no God” (Psalm 14:1). When Paul spoke at Athens he proclaimed the preeminence of “the God who made the world and everything in it.” (Acts 17:24). It is time for Christians to speak out loud to the world and especially to the next generation about God’s wordless book. Having been taught that “there is no God”, people then believe that there is no need to read the Word of God and that there is no need for the Incarnate Word of God, Jesus. But “[t]he God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth.”
上帝藉著祂的話(神說)創造了天地(創世記1:3),並且祂繼續日復一日地講話。創造是上帝對所有人的普遍啟示(General Revelation),告訴我們有一位創造世界的上帝。宇宙並不是由偶然的進化產生的。羅馬書1:20說,上帝的存在“是明明可知的,雖然眼不能見,但藉着所造之物就可以了解看見,叫人無可推諉”。因此,創造是上帝無字的書,用以證明上帝的存在,但我們仍然需要上帝的特殊啟示《上帝的話語》來向我們講述上帝是誰。聖經是上帝的道,指向並道成肉身的耶穌基督。愚頑人心裏說:“沒有 神”(詩篇14:1)。當保羅在雅典傳道時,他宣告了上帝“是創造宇宙和其中萬物的 神”的卓越地位。 (使徒行傳17:24)現在是基督徒向世界,尤其是向下一代大聲疾呼上帝無言之書的時候了。人們被教導說“沒有上帝”之後,他們相信不需要讀上帝的話,也不需要道成肉身的耶穌。但是“祂是創造宇宙和其中萬物的 神的上帝是天地之主。”

上帝是造物主 是一切住宰
