바라봄으로 변화됨 | |
성경말씀 | |
고후4:6 왜냐하면 어두운 데서 빛이 비치라고 말씀하신 그 하나님은 우리 마음속에 빛을 비추시어 예수 그리스도의 얼굴에 있는 하나님의 영광을 아는 지식을 밝히신 분이시기 때문입니다. (3:18) 그러나 우리 모두는 너울을 벗은 얼굴로 거울처럼 주님의 영광을 바라보고 반사함으로써 그분과 동일한 형상으로 변화되어 영광에서 영광에 이릅니다. 이것은 주 영에서 비롯됩니다. | |

Transformed by Beholding | |
Bible Verses | |
2 Corinthians 4:6 ...[God] shined in our hearts to illuminate the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 3:18 But we all with unveiled face, beholding and reflecting like a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord Spirit. | |
Words of Ministry | |
The word face here refers to the Lord's countenance, to His presence. How we need to have the presence of the Lord Jesus within us! His presence is the very glory of God, for the glory of God is in the face of Christ. When we are in the presence of Christ and before His countenance, we are in glory. Our need today is to behold and reflect the glory of the Lord. As we behold His glory, we are transformed...by the Lord Spirit from glory to glory. Christ's working Himself into us is not a matter of behavior or self-improvement. It is a matter of our being inwardly saturated with the Shekinah glory of God. Suppose a steel rod, hard, cold, and black, is thrust into fire and held there. Eventually, the fire will saturate the steel and cause it to glow. In this way the steel loses its natural color and becomes white hot. Now the steel is shining, glowing. However, it would be useless, even ridiculous, for someone to teach steel to shine. If this steel is to keep on glowing, however, it must remain in the fire. If it is kept out of the fire for any length of time, its natural color and darkness will return. In a similar way, what we need today is not doctrine in letters; we need to be burned by Christ and saturated with Him as the indwelling glory of God. | |
