GENESIS 3
创世纪3
Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
如今的蛇比主神创造的田野的任何野兽都更不易察觉。他对女人说，没错，神已经说了，你不能吃园中每棵树上的果子？
2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
女人对蛇说：“园中树上的果子，我们可以吃；
3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
惟有园当中那棵树上的果子， 神曾说：‘你们不可吃，也不可摸，免得你们死。’”
4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
蛇对女人说：你们不一定死
5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
因为 神知道，你们吃的日子眼睛就明亮了，你们便如 神能知道善恶。”
THE DEVILS FAVOURITE COLOUR
魔鬼最喜欢的色彩
The devil has been attacking God's people from day 1, because he can't hurt God, so he goes after the ones who love God. He started with Adam and Eve and he continues until he is finally defeated when is thrown into hell.
魔鬼从第一天就一直在攻击神的子民，他跟在爱神之人的身后。他跟随亚当夏娃直到最终打败他们把他们扔进地狱。
What is this tactic? Well, it is to make everything that God says in black and white a murky kind of grey.
他用了什么策略？他把黑白说成模糊的灰色。
He loves to say HAS GOD SAID THAT?
他喜欢说，神那么说了吗？
There are some truths we can learn:
我们需要知道一些事实：
Satan never tells the full story verse 1. He contradicted God, who never said that they couldn't eat of any tree... just the ones he told them not to.
撒旦从不讲述第一节的完整故事。他不反驳神，从不说他们不能吃任何树上的果子...只是那些神不要他们吃的。
He pictures God as some cruel tyrant who withholds things from his children, when God is a loving and gracious Father who knows what is best for his children.
他把神描绘成某些从孩子们手中克扣东西的恶毒的暴君，但神是富有爱心和恩典的父亲，他了解什么对他的孩子是最好的。
God's word is black and white... it is Yes and No on most major issues. Let me give you an example.
神的话语是黑白分明的...在许多最主要的事情上对错分明。我给你举一个例子。
Should a Christian date or marry and unbeliever?
一个基督徒应该和非信徒约会或结婚吗？
What does God's word say, well all through the OT God warns his people about this and we see the consequences throughout the OT, it leads them into sin and rebellion. In 2 Corinthians 6, Paul reinforces this with these words.
神的话说了什么？关于这点，整个旧约，神一直在告诫他的子民，我们通过旧约看到了这件事的影响，他使人们陷入罪和背叛。在哥林多后书6中，保罗用他的话强调这点。
14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
你们和不信的原不相配，不要同负一轭。义和不义有什么相交呢？光明和黑暗有什么相通呢？
15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
基督和彼列有什么相和呢？信主的和不信主的有什么相干呢？
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
神的殿和偶像有什么相同呢？因为我们是永生 神的殿，就如 神曾说：“我要在他们中间居住，在他们中间来往。我要作他们的 神，他们要作我的子民。”
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.
又说：“你们务要从他们中间出来与他们分别，不要沾不洁净的物，我就收纳你们。
18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
我要作你们的父你们要作我的儿女。”这是全能的主说的。
What happens to many young Christian men and women, they fall in love with an unbeliever, they know God's word says no, but the devil comes and makes it a grey area. They end up marrying unbelievers and many strong Christians are now far from God because of this choice. God does overrule and saves some spouses, but he does not approve.
许多年轻的基督徒男人和女人们，他们陷入和不信者的爱情中，他们知道神不要他们这么做，但魔鬼来了使它进入灰色地带。他们最终与不信者结婚，许多强大的基督徒因为这个选择远离神。神对他们施加影响要挽救一些夫妇，但神不赞成这么做。
God set things before the children of Israel, so that they stay close to HIM. Did they obey HIM? The consequences were severe.
神在以色列子民面前设定一些事，以便他们能与他亲近。他们服从他了吗？结果是严峻的。
Likewise, HE has given us commands for us to live by, they are black and white. The devil is seeking to make these commands into grey areas.
同样他也给了我们如何生活的命令，他们黑白分明。魔鬼在试图使这些命令进入灰色地带。
The devil says to the Christian, if you disobey God, in this area, you will not surely die. But remember that Adam and Eve did die spiritually.
魔鬼对基督徒说，如果你违背神，在这个地带，你一定不会死。但请记得亚当和夏娃在灵魂层面的确死了。
All through the bible, people who dabbled with sin, like Saul, Ananias and Sapphira and Balaam, came to a very sticky end.
整本圣经中，涉足罪中的人们，如扫罗，亚拿尼亚和撒非喇以及巴拉巴兰，都有棘手的结局。
When The devil says to you... Hath God said? you reply like Jesus did in Matthew Chapter 4. Use the Bible to refute his lies, use God's promises to defeat him.
当魔鬼对你说...神说了吗？你的回答要像耶稣在马太福音第4章所做的，用圣经来驳斥他的谎言，用神的应许打败他。
The devil has weapons, but they are blunt. The devil fires bullets but they are rubber ones.
魔鬼有武器，但他们并不锋利。魔鬼发出了子弹，但他们只是橡胶弹。
We diffuse his efforts by relying on God and his word. When he says Hath God said
我们依靠神来传播他的成就和话语。当他说神已经说了的时候。
SAY YES, HE HAS AND HIS WORD IS TRUTH
说，没错，他已经说了，他的话是信实的
Do not be deceived... God has said it in black and white in his word... not in grey！！！
不要被欺骗了...神已经在他的话里清楚讲明这一切...不要进入灰色地带！！！
God Bless You,
愿神祝福你
