瑪拉基書3:4-5



3:4 那時,猶大和耶路撒冷所獻的供物必蒙耶和華悅納,彷彿古時之日、上古之年。
3:5 萬軍之耶和華說:「我必臨近你們,施行審判。我必速速作見證,警戒行邪術的、犯姦淫的、起假誓的、虧負人之工價的、欺壓寡婦孤兒的、屈枉寄居的,和不敬畏我的。」

Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasing to the Lord as in the days of old and as in former years.
"Then I will draw near to you for judgment. I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, against those who oppress the hired worker in his wages, the widow and the fatherless, against those who thrust aside the sojourner, and do not fear me, says the Lord of hosts.

    上帝要潔淨祂的祭司,是要靠耶穌基督的寶血,祂要將祂的聖潔,透過耶穌基督賜給祂真正的祭司。

    這讓我們想起以弗所書14-7節所說「就如上帝從創立世界以前,在基督裡揀選了我們,使我們在他面前成為聖潔,無有瑕疵;又因愛我們,就按著自己的意旨所喜悅的,預定我們藉著耶穌基督得兒子的名分,使他榮耀的恩典得著稱讚;這恩典是他在愛子裡所賜給我們的。我們藉這愛子的血得蒙救贖,過犯得以赦免,乃是照他豐富的恩典。」

    所以,我們要靠耶穌基督的寶血,站立在上帝的面前,這事上帝為我們預備唯一成為聖潔的道路
