創世記35:11-15


35:11 上帝又對他說:「我是全能的上帝;你要生養眾多,將來有一族和多國的民從你而生,又有君王從你而出。
35:12
我所賜給亞伯拉罕和以撒的地,我要賜給你與你的後裔。」
35:13
上帝就從那與雅各說話的地方升上去了。
35:14
雅各便在那裡立了一根石柱,在柱子上奠酒,澆油。
35:15
雅各就給那地方起名叫伯特利。

11 And God said to him, “I am God Almighty[f]; be fruitful and increase in number. A nation and a community of nations will come from you, and kings will be among your descendants. 12 The land I gave to Abraham and Isaac I also give to you, and I will give this land to your descendants after you.” 13 Then God went up from him at the place where he had talked with him.
14 Jacob set up a stone pillar at the place where God had talked with him, and he poured out a drink offering on it; he also poured oil on it. 15 Jacob called the place where God had talked with him Bethel.

           雅各承受了亞伯拉罕的福,也因為這樣以色列也成了上帝的選民,以掃的後裔就沒有這樣的福份了,因為以掃本身沒有有看重上帝所要賜的福份,說來十分可惜!雖同為亞伯拉罕的子孫,卻無法承受永生之福!
 
           親愛的弟兄姐妹,上帝的呼召既然臨到我們,讓我們透過信靠耶穌基督成為上帝的兒女,我們就要好好看重這個身分,好好的信靠主,不要放棄這樣的身分,因為這若不是上帝的恩典,是無法享受到的!

          想想看看,在舊約的時代,多少人盼望基督的顯現,希望能夠透過基督進入上帝永恆的國度!今天上帝已經將這樣的救恩之門向我們場開,我們豈能不好好把握基會,進入上帝的國呢!享受與基督所要嗣給我們的榮耀,直到永永遠遠,阿們!
