  彼前五6  所以你们要谦卑,服在神大能的手下,使祂到了时候,可以叫你们升高。

  来十二6  因为主所爱的,祂必管教,又鞭打凡所收纳的儿子。

  神的审判在按着祂的主宰所安排的环境里得以施行。……在彼前五章六节,“神大能的手”指神执行祂行政的手,特别见于祂的审判中。

  神的手拯救我们时是大能的。但我们在祂的审判中更多看见祂手的大能。假定某位弟兄得救很久以后,继续享受属世的娱乐;他虽然真正得救了,却仍然爱世界。但有一天他遭遇车祸,那是神大能的手所安排的车祸,使他比以前更深地寻求主。这是神的手运用在审判中的例证。

  照着彼得在六至八节的话,我们需要作三件与经历神大能的手有关的事。第一,我们该谦卑自己,服在神大能的手下。第二,我们该将一切的忧虑卸给祂。第三,我们需要谨守、儆醒。我们所遭遇的一切都在神大能的手下。我们不需要担忧或忧虑;只该谦卑自己,服在神大能的手下,不该反抗。然后,我们该将一切使我们忧虑的难处卸给主。随着这个,我们该谨守、儆醒(彼得前书生命读经,三六八至三六九页)。
  1 Pet. 5:6 Therefore be humbled under the mighty hand of God that He may exalt you in due time.

  Heb. 12:6 For whom the Lord loves He disciplines, and He scourges every son whom He receives.

  God’s judgment is carried out in the environment arranged according to His sovereignty…. In 1 Peter 5:6 the mighty hand of God refers to God’s administrating hand seen especially in His judgment.

  In saving us, God’s hand is mighty. But we see much more of the might of His hand in His judgment. Suppose a certain brother continues to enjoy worldly entertainment long after he has been saved. Although he has truly been saved, he still loves the world. But one day he has a car accident, an accident arranged by the mighty hand of God, and that accident causes him to seek the Lord in a deeper way than he ever did before. This is an illustration of God’s hand exercised in judgment.

  According to Peter’s word in 5:6-8, we need to do three things that are related to our experience of the mighty hand of God. First, we should humble ourselves under God’s mighty hand. Second, we should cast all our anxiety on Him. Third, we need to be sober and watch. Everything that happens to us is under God’s mighty hand. There is no need for us to worry or be anxious. We should simply humble ourselves under God’s mighty hand and not resist it. Then we should cast all the troubles that cause our anxiety upon the Lord. Along with this, we need to be sober and watchful. (Life-study of 1 Peter, pp. 307-308)

  虽然在申命记中找不到“行政管理”一辞,但我们若透彻地读这卷书,就会看见这卷书说到神的行政,甚至说到祂的行政管理。摩西常明确地说到神的爱,但神行政管理之事是含示的。我们若进入这卷书的深处,就会看见神在这里对祂百姓的对付,乃是一种行政管理。

  因着神是智慧的,祂并不纵容祂的儿女。祂是成全的父,祂爱祂的儿女,并在行政上对付他们。……祂管教我们的目的是为成全我们。

  因着神爱〔以色列人〕,祂不容他们的错误过去。甚至摩西也因着他在民数记二十章一至十三节的错误为神所惩治。摩西对背叛的百姓动怒,没有照神嘱咐他作的吩咐磐石,反而第二次击打磐石。这得罪了神,结果摩西就丧失了进入美地的权利。……这是神行政管理……的一例。

  在申命记三章二十三至二十九节,我们看见摩西在进入神所应许之美地的事上被拒绝。……摩西在这事上被神拒绝,这显示神公义的行政管理。在民数记二十章,摩西犯了严重的错误,这错误是神无法容忍的,因为这摸到祂的行政。神的行政管理是公义的,虽然祂爱摩西,但祂无法为此不施行祂的行政。摩西忠信地事奉神四十年,但因着他的错误牵涉到神的行政管理,他丧失了进入美地的权利。

  神这样对付摩西,不让他进入美地,就使以色列人更敬畏神公义的对付。神当然是爱的神,但祂的爱是成全的爱,不是纵容的爱。神对付摩西,有助于对以色列人的成全。他们该从这事学到,公义的神在祂行政的对付上是何等可畏(申命记生命读经,一七至一八、四二至四三页)。

  Although we cannot find the expression governmental administration in Deuteronomy, if we read this book thoroughly, we will see that it is a book of God’s government, even of His governmental administration. Moses often spoke explicitly about love, but the matter of God’s governmental administration is implied. If we get into the depth of this book, we will realize that God’s dealing with His people here is a kind of governmental administration.

  Because God is wise, He does not spoil His children. He is a perfecting Father who loves His children and who deals with them governmentally…. He disciplines us for the purpose of perfecting us.

  Because God loved [the children of Israel], He did not let them get by with their mistakes. Even Moses was disciplined by God for his mistake in Numbers 20:1-13. Moses became angry with the rebellious people, and instead of speaking to the rock, as God had charged him to do, he smote the rock a second time. This offended God, and as a result Moses lost his right to enter into the good land….That was an instance of God’s governmental administration.

  In Deuteronomy 3:23-29 we see that Moses was refused in the matter of entering into the God-promised good land…. Moses being refused by God in this matter showed God’s righteous governmental administration. In Numbers 20 Moses had made a serious mistake, a mistake which God could not tolerate because it touched His administration. God’s governmental administration is righteous, and even though He loved Moses, He could not for this reason fail to exercise His administration. Moses served God faithfully for forty years, but because his mistake involved God’s governmental administration, he lost the right to enter into the good land.

  The way God dealt with Moses in not allowing him to enter into the good land caused the children of Israel to have more fear of God’s righteous dealing. To be sure, God is a loving God, but His love is a perfecting love, not a spoiling love. God’s dealing with Moses helped to perfect the children of Israel. They should have learned from this how fearful the righteous God is in His governmental dealings. (Life-study of Deuteronomy, pp. 15, 35)
