马太福音-Matthew 5章8节
| 5:8 |
清心的人有福了，因为他们必看见神。 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. |
Enlightenment:
The reward for being pure in heart is to see God. God is our reward. No reward is greater than God Himself. We gain this reward by being strict, righteous, with ourselves, by being merciful toward others, and by being pure in heart toward God.
To be pure in heart is to be single in purpose, to have the single goal of accomplishing God’s will for God’s glory (1 Cor. 10:31). This is for the kingdom of the heavens. Our spirit is the organ to receive Christ (John 1:12; 3:6), whereas our heart is the ground where Christ as the seed of life grows (13:19). For the kingdom of the heavens we need to be poor in spirit, empty in our spirit, that we may receive Christ. We also need to be pure in heart, single in our heart, that Christ may grow in us without frustration.
亮光
清心的赏赐是看见神。神是我们的赏赐。没有一种赏赐比神自己更大。我们对自己严格、公义，对别人怜悯，并且对神清心，就会得到这赏赐。
清心是目的专一，只有一个目标，要完成神的旨意荣耀神。（林前十31。）这是为着诸天的国。我们的灵是接受基督的器官，（约一12，三6，）我们的心是基督这生命种子生长的土地。（太十三19。）为着诸天的国，我们需要灵里贫穷、倒空，使我们能接受基督；我们也需要心里纯洁专一，使基督能在我们里面毫无拦阻的长大。
