100:1 普天下啊,要向上主歡呼!
100:2 要歡歡喜喜地敬拜他;要唱讚美詩歌,到他面前。

100:4 要以感謝進入他的聖殿;要以頌讚進入他的聖所。要感謝他,頌讚他!
100:5 上主至善,他的慈愛永恆;他的信實萬代長存。
Psalm 100:1-5 NIV
1 Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth.
2 Worship the LORD with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.
3 Know that the LORD is God.
It is he who made us, and we are his [a] ;
we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.
5 For the LORD is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations.
******************************
詩人呼籲我們:「普天下啊,要向上主歡呼!要歡歡喜喜地敬拜他;要唱讚美詩歌,到他面前。要知道上主是上帝。他創造了我們,我們屬於他;我們是他的子民,是他牧養的羊群。」
我們要認清楚:「誰是上帝?」
我們要將榮耀歸於上帝,正如詩人在此說:「要知道上主是上帝。他創造了我們,我們屬於他;我們是他的子民,是他牧養的羊群。」
所謂拜偶像就是將上帝的榮耀歸於受造之物,而未歸於上帝。我們不可以將天地宇宙視為上帝,更不可以將人推崇為上帝,只有「道成肉身」的耶穌,我們才能尊崇祂為主、為上帝,因為祂本為上帝。
更可貴的是,祂為救贖我們,親自成為挽回祭,為我們受死,承受一切刑罰,這又是何等的愛!
所以詩人說:「要以感謝進入他的聖殿;要以頌讚進入他的聖所。要感謝他,頌讚他!上主至善,他的慈愛永恆;他的信實萬代長存。」
凡蒙恩典的弟兄姐妹,讓我們歡呼讚美祂!
