复活节 - 它对你有什么意义呢? What does Easter mean to you?


哥林多前书 15: 50-54
弟兄们,我告诉你们,血肉之体不能承受神的国,必朽坏的也不能承受那不朽坏的。 我现在把一个奥秘告诉你们:我们不是都要睡觉,而是在一剎那,眨眼之间,就是号角最后一次吹响的时候,我们都要改变;因为号角要吹响,死人要复活,成为不朽坏的,我们也要改变。必朽坏的必须穿上不朽坏的,这必死的必须穿上不死的; 这必朽坏的既穿上了不朽坏的,这必死的既穿上了不死的,那时,经上的话就应验了:胜利了!死亡已经被吞灭。
1 Corinthians 15:50-54
I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”
