誠心實意的事奉耶和華
誠心實意的事奉耶和華

約書亞記第二十四章14-20節
14 現在你們要敬畏耶和華,誠心實意的事奉他,將你們列祖在大河那邊和在埃及所事奉的神除掉,去事奉耶和華。24:15 若是你們以事奉耶和華為不好,今日就可以選擇所要事奉的:是你們列祖在大河那邊所事奉的神呢?是你們所住這地的亞摩利人的神呢?至於我和我家,我們必定事奉耶和華。16 百姓回答說:我們斷不敢離棄耶和華去事奉別神;17 因耶和華─我們的神曾將我們和我們列祖從埃及地的為奴之家領出來,在我們眼前行了那些大神蹟,在我們所行的道上,所經過的諸國,都保護了我們。18 耶和華又把住此地的亞摩利人都從我們面前趕出去。所以,我們必事奉耶和華,因為他是我們的神。19 約書亞對百姓說:你們不能事奉耶和華;因為他是聖潔的神,是忌邪的神,必不赦免你們的過犯罪惡。20 你們若離棄耶和華去事奉外邦神,耶和華在降福之後,必轉而降禍與你們,把你們滅絕。
在這個章節裡,第19節約書亞對百姓說:「你們不能事奉耶和華」,為什麼約書亞會對百姓說這話呢?因為事奉神是要誠心實意的,不是因為神給你什麼好處,你才來信祂。而這些百姓,約書亞是很了解他們的,所以他告訴百姓,耶和華是聖潔的神,是忌邪的神,如果百姓不是誠心實意的,只看在耶和華能給他們什麼好處才來事奉祂,那麼就不能來事奉祂。
在聖經的記載裡,摩西是代表著侓法,約書亞是代表著救贖,因此耶穌降生之後,就是新約救贖的時代來到了,約書亞是憑應許進入迦南地的,他是誠心實意地事奉耶和華,他不以眼見為憑,不像大多數的以色列百姓,需要神行大神蹟,親眼看見了神的作為,才會相信神。
對於耶和華的信仰,真是要誠心實意,這才是真信仰。
