除去石心,换上肉心（Except I put on a heart of flesh）

除去石心,换上肉心（Except I put on a heart of flesh） 除去石心,换上肉心(Except I put on a heart of flesh) Except I put on a heart of flesh Ezekiel, chapter eleventh, 14~19 The word of Jehovah came to me and said, "son of man, the inhabitants of Jerusalem, your brothers, your tribe, your relatives, and the whole family of Israel, say to the people," stay away from the lord! This land is given to us for industry". Therefore, say, "this is what the LORD says: though I have moved the whole family of Israel far from the nations, and scattered them among the nations, I will remain their sanctuaries in the nations they have come to."". Say, "this is what the Lord has said:" I will gather you from all nations and gather you from the scattered nations, and to give you the land of Israel. "". They will go there and remove all their detestable things from among them. I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit in their hearts, and from their flesh away I will give them a heart of flesh. There is a person who specializes in religious studies, his name is Albert (Gordon Allport). He divides all religions into two kinds, one is the external and utilitarian religion. The purpose of this religion is to use religion, and use religious worship objects, and ultimately to use god. As the saying goes: people for himself hindmost. People always try their best to make use of everything. In fact, in many cases, the function of religion is to make people use it. I heard that a lot of people have joined Islam in a city in Indonesia recently, because it will make them much more convenient, that is, external religion. The other is the religion of life, or immanence. The people who hold this belief have a motive force and a need in their lives, so in their view, religion can not be used and can not use people, so it affirms the value of religion. They don't care whether it's good or not, but whether they're living in the world. Don't ask why you believe in Jesus, but ask why you don't believe Jesus. A man who does not believe in Jesus must be confused and more difficult to live than the person who believes in Jesus, because if he does not believe in Jesus, he will have to believe everything. If a man is not afraid of God, he is afraid of everything, even cockroaches are afraid. But a man who fears God is fearless, because he knows that he is God's people. This is the religion of life. It will change people's outlook on life, and also determine people's world outlook. Let the human live in the world, no matter where, his body can be weak, the environment can be embarrassed and bad, but he will be really rich and full live. A real life, probably doesn't sing well listen, but will sing the grace of God, let a person touched hearts. That's the meaning of life. In Christ Jesus, we believe in God, the change that God has given us, that we and others see and taste the lord. This is the true meaning of religion. Thank God, Christians do not believe in external religion. Our belief is inner and life belief. But it's a pity that there are many churches today, moving slowly towards external beliefs. It is often said that the activities of the church is not enough, so the best activities, singing is also the best lively. Some churches stood singing songs for forty-five minutes, bouncing and dancing, and most of the congregation was exhausted. Pay great attention to activities in religion. For example, in some religious activities in Africa, they often play drums and dance. In the grace of God, there is his wondrous works. In this world, life is very lively, like some bright flowers, bright colors; there are also some life, very quiet, like some beautiful flowers, regardless of what kind of life is the most important. Once upon a time, there was a pastor in the United States who was looking forward to his church being able to grow. He saw in the church, the priest said Hallelujah, praise the congregation will follow. The preacher said, "Amen.". But no matter what he said, his congregation did not respond to him. Later, someone told him that in a spare bar, there was a parrot, a special speaker. The man suggested that the priest took the parrot and, if the priest said Hallelujah with parrot, You'll learn the parrot. The priest is to think in It stands to reason., the leisure bar. I was surprised to see that the bar was a very low level place. There are a lot of drunks in here. He told the shopkeeper that he wanted to borrow the parrot. The man agreed at once and told him that no one came to the bar on Sunday and lent him no harm. So the priest borrowed the parrot. On Sunday, he put the parrot next to the platform. This parrot has always been on in the dark bars in now so bright, so big a place, very happy. The preacher began to preach, and said, "learn a parrot.". The congregation saw that the parrots were saying "thank God", and they also said thank god. But then the parrot suddenly stopped talking. Not only that, it began to speak rude language, but what kind of vulgar language. The priest told him to shut up. It was quiet. I didn't expect it to pass by and say, "the place is different, everybody is the same.". So the congregation below was a regular visitor to that bar. At this moment, the priest knew where his disciples were, except Sunday's visit to church. What is the life of Christians? If our life is not updated, many times is really pitiful. When we come to church, and when we are not in church, we often have two faces. That's what Israel really is. Today we think again about ezekiel. Why are the Israelites so corrupted by God chosen? They like crimes. It is believed that the result of crime can make people closer to god. After repentance, there is a sense of revival. When you get close to God, you're ready to commit another crime. Day after day. The Bible says, pig washed clean, and jumped into the pit. It's not a pig's fault, it's a person's fault. Pigs are not used to cleanliness, but they feel tied up. We really need to ask the Lord for mercy. God will not abandon us, and when God's grace comes to us, he loves us. God wants to choose a man to be his child, and he must save him. No matter how long he was, he always loved him. So God said unto the children of Israel, I will give them a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in your hearts. From their flesh away I will give them a heart of flesh. Sons and daughters of God must be new. Not because the outward appearance is new, but because the heart is new. His life is new. God will continue to work in his heart. When a man wants to be a new man in God, we see three important things: first, the 19 verse says, "I want to give them one heart.". Unity is the heart of the mind. In Hebrew, one means that one cannot decompose, and the other represents completeness. God wants to give people a whole heart. Many times people don't love the Lord, because they are double minded, think good Christian, other religions. They worship God, and they don't want to give up these idols. Baal is the name of a God who represents a rich surplus. It gives people wealth. Jesus led people to heaven, but these Bodhisattvas gave them worldly pleasure. Grasping God, grasping the world, killing two birds with one stone, stepping on two boats. Why is this happening? Because we don't know that God is truth, that truth is not absolute, is relative. When your heart is incomplete, your life must be chaotic. Why do families and professions have problems, because we are not built on that single truth?. Sometimes we don't have pure love for god. Our hearts have too many branches, at this time, life can not be perfect, it is not complete. Our relationship with people is not clear, not to mention our relationship with god. This is the truth in the Bible when it comes to salvation, peace, and peace. A complete life can be reconciled with god. When we make peace with God, we can make peace with people. Maybe he's your enemy. You hate him when you see him. He hates you as well. In fact, it is because God put you together, let you see your own, also let you quickly look up to god. Why does God put you in stormy waves? Why did God make many of his people go through rough days? The reason is very simple. He doesn't let people put his heart in this world. So that you can see the eternal God, not looking at human beings and the environment, but looking up to god. He wants you to have a single, undivided heart, not affected by anything. Double minded people, don't want to get something from God. That's what you do with people, relationships with yourself, relationships with the world. God's promise to Israel and to us is to give us a undivided heart. With a single heart, we get salvation, and we get peace. Second and he said, "I will put the new spirit among them.". This new spirit has three meanings. On the first hand, it refers to a kind of light that can make people see the truth. Many times we do not see the truth, only to see the phenomenon. If we look at the phenomenon, we will be deceived by the phenomenon. In the fourth chapter of the gospel of John, a woman, Jesus and she talks about the gift of God, and he says, "if you know the gift of God."...... Before Jesus had finished, she became very angry. She didn't hear God. She only heard the gift. Because of her life, she was deceived by her gift (gift). People are always easy to see the phenomenon, but can not see the intrinsic essence. But when the Holy Spirit comes, let us see the truth. God prescribed many laws for the Israelites, and they felt bored, but they didn't realize it was good for them. When the Holy Spirit comes into our hearts, we like to read the bible. The Bible says that they will obey my decrees. How can man submit himself to God's laws? If we love God, we will see the value of God's words. If people read more books, they read very well, and they can understand them at once. It's hard to read without reading. Some people say, "pastor, I don't know why, I want to sleep when I read the Bible.". It means you don't read the bible. If you read the classics regularly, you will see more and more clearly. Some people think that reading is too bitter, so do not read, to enjoy life. But people live in the world, unknown, do not understand the truth, is the most bitter. Ask three, don't know, live in muddled. Some people say that in the future, the only thing we can do is to praise god. But there is one thing that can never be done, that is, to know christ. Paul said that his life was to hope to know Christ and to know the power of his resurrection. That's the greatest enjoyment of people. You can't know Christ unless you have the spirit of God in your heart. When God saves us and makes us his children, he gives us the Holy Spirit, so that we can understand the truth. That's the greatest enjoyment. When we know the truth, we must follow the truth and live the truth. The man who is truly blessed is the one who feels the way of god. Life experience is the greatest blessing. Why did the Israelites leave God? Because they fancy. They think Assyria and Egypt are very strong, but they please Assyria and Egypt, so that it can be quiet, but there is no peace forever. Do you want to use God? Despite the use of. But God does not make use of human beings, nor does he use human beings. You can only deceive yourself, and ultimately only void. Thank God, he gives us the new spirit, let us understand the truth, follow the truth, experience the truth, live the truth, and enjoy the truth. Third, he is from our midst I give us a heart of flesh. There are two meanings here. On the one hand, the life of Christianity is not a dead life, nor is it a rigid life. It is a stable life, and a life of progress. You're not going to stop in one state forever. When children begin to call their parents, even if they don't know clearly, their parents also feel very cute. When they begin to be sensible, they will cheat their parents, but their parents also feel cute. If you grow up, or like that, you become hateful. Many times, we have been Christians for many years, and still deceive God like a child. It has become abominable to us for so many years that we have not been able to progress. Ask the Lord to have mercy on us. A lot of times, the heart is more and more rigid, like a stiff neck of cattle. God calls you to the left, and you to the right. Occasionally so, also can forgive, if God is always so and its bars, if God doesn't teach you, that is already let you, if he discipline you, then you have hope. But how often does our heart look like stone?. We have no discipline and no progress. Ask the Lord to have mercy on us. God's sons and daughters should never be like that. He said, "I'll give you a meat heart, and the first thing is to live better.". In second ways, it's easy to be moved. And then we will be able to recover in the presence of the lord. The work of the Lord, the sons and daughters of the Lord, must have the moving heart. Do you have zeal for the work of the Lord? When you first believe in the Lord, you see a person who wants to preach the gospel to him. When you see the difficult things, you want to help solve it. You don't fear humiliation, nor fear people, and serve God reverently. As the years went on, our hearts became more and more difficult to be touched. If a preacher preaches fiercely, we will think, in heart, why it is so intense and too emotional. Why? Because our hearts are getting harder and harder. Samson was in the presence of God at the very beginning. But later, more and more hardened, the most tragic is that the Bible said: when the LORD left him, he did not know. He was so numb that he could not realize that God was gone, and that the spirit of God had left him, and he did not know. By the time he cared, it was too late. Ask God to pity us. He has promised us, from our flesh take the stony heart out. We should not use them to God, but I should be used to the world. But God shall be with a soft heart of the road, out of the way for planting to our heart. Like the good soil, the species can blossom, which can result in thirty times, sixty times and one hundred times increase. Ask the Lord to have mercy on us, and let us have a flesh heart in the presence of god. The touch of the receptor, the love of the receptor. There is strength in union with God, before God to keep our enthusiasm, so that we have only one heart, brothers and sisters, with God, for the truth of God have a real understanding and the pursuit of the word of God and God's work has a real passion. I wish God's children had such a will.
