對比其他英文翻譯的聖經,為何思高聖經中的依撒意亞第九章缺少了英文版本的第一章節?在思高聖經還有其他章節是與其他翻譯有別?原因又是為何?(At the first time the land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephtali was lightly touched: and at the last the way of the sea beyond the Jordan of the Galilee of the Gentiles was heavily loaded. Isaiah 9:1, Douay-Rheims Bible)
主佑! 今天的福音是聖路加福音 1:57-66, 80, 聖洗若翰者誕辰,福音中其中一句: 「這孩子將成為什麼人物啊?」因為上主的手與他同在。 一直以來,我都未能理解和釋懷,既然天主的手與洗者若翰同在,為何他死得很慘,被斬首。雖然我知道很多先知都是被迫害或被殺,但連洗者若翰都是這樣,總是不明為何主不使他悻免於難呢? 謝謝程神父!
神父我在網路上的資料例如YouTube看到有關天使和撒旦的描述中,了解到他們兩不只有階級性而且是有形像的,不是人形的那種,而且描述的形像是很恐怖的那種,沒記錯的話資料來源是從死海古卷中找到有關描述天使的資料,有些故事內容在聖經中是沒有的,我知道有些經卷不被教會所承認,不是默感下寫成的偽經。但自己很想知道教會是怎麼教導有關天使和撒旦的相關描述的?希望神父可以解答我的疑惑謝謝。
我一直不明白,為什麼主耶穌在山中聖訓説,如果有人打你一邊臉,轉另外一邊臉也給他打。可是祂被審判時,一個下人打了他,他不但沒有轉另一邊臉,反而質問他? 同樣,保祿宗徒在羅馬人書説不要尋求報復,要以善胜惡,但是宗徒大事錄里他遇到迫害時卻是用自己羅馬公民的身份爭取公義?
默示錄14:4讚美了沒有接觸過女人的“童身”,其實從我小時候,就一直對獨身生活有興趣,那時候我甚至不是基督徒,後來信了天主,守獨身的願望愈加強烈,可惜幾年前我沒有抵擋誘惑,出去嫖娼了,現在我很後悔,我想知道,我還可能恢復失去的貞潔,重新成為默示錄所記載的那些童男當中一員嗎?
Hi, we pray in Jesus name as the intercessors while alive here and praying for our brothers and sisters. Not asking Mary or ANY other saints in heaven. the person who prays for us us always say in JESUS NAME . Jesus is the truth the way and the life NO ONE goes to the FATHER except THRU him . Is Mary saying in Jesus name ? We won’t hear that ever from her now any dead saint from the bible . So this is why the question said only what is stated from the bible Catholics is adding their own teachings.
天主偏召選了世上愚妄的,為羞辱那有智慧的;召選了世上懦弱的,為羞辱那堅強的;(格林多前書 1:27) 我一直不明白,宗徒這裡說的“羞辱”,是怎麼實現的?有新教的牧師説,是通過原本愚昧的、貧窮的、一無所有的,信了天主以後變得有知識有智慧,有財富,通過這樣的“改變”來羞辱那些外邦人。神父您有什麼看法?或者您對宗徒的話有不一樣的解釋嗎?
If Jesus came to die for our sins, in order for us to go to heaven, what happened to all the people before Jesus’ coming?
請問神父,地球本來是上帝賜給人類的樂園,只是被人類背叛以及破壞了,將來審判結束,還是要交給日漸恢復完美的人類去治理,只有上帝揀選的人才有資格上天堂,與耶穌一起統治千年後,最後還給上帝至高統治權,而有資格留在地上的人類即享有永生與完美的身心,且不再有惡人與駭人的生物了。這樣的理解對嗎?
Jesus preached mostly to Jews in His 3 years of ministry (except the encounter of the woman of Canaanite). He downplayed the Gentiles (Matthew 5:47, 6:7) and even instructed the Apostles to avoid them (Matthew 10:5). In the first few chapters of Acts, Peter also focused his ministry on Jews. But then God made a sharp turn converting Saul/Paul and sent him to Gentiles preaching the Gospel. Was the plan changed? Why?
My Catholicism training told me that we humans are prone to sin due to the scar which original sin had left us. This also proves that Holy Mary is “sinless” since she is immaculate. My two questions are 1) If this is true, then how could Adam and Eve committed the first sin given that they carry no original sin too and were full of grace. 2) If someone who has no original sin could still commit sins by free will (like Adam and Eve) then why do we say 100% Holy Mary is “sinless”?
