    In this classic, Puritan Richard Sibbes shows the transforming liberty which comes from seeing Christ in the gospel. An exposition of 2 Corinthians 3:17-18.
    在这本经典著作中,清教徒理查德·西布斯展示了从福音中看到基督而来的转化自由。这是对哥林多后书 3:17-18 的阐述。

    Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.—2 Cor. 3:17, 18.现在主就是那灵,主的灵在哪里,那里就有自由。我们众人既然敞开了脸,得以看见主的荣光,就变成了与主同样的形象,从荣光变到荣光,都是借着主的灵。-哥林多后书 3:17, 18

    Understanding that the Gospel is a sweet delight above the reality that we cannot keep the law of God on our own for justification.
    明白福音是一种甜蜜的喜悦,超越了我们无法凭借自己遵守上帝的律法来获得称义的现实。

    What is the way, after we have had boldness and sweet familiarity with God, and it hath been interrupted by sin? how shall we recover ourselves?
    当我们与上帝有过大胆和甜蜜的亲近,却被罪恶所打断后,我们该如何恢复自己?

    Surely, to apprehend our sins to be pardonable in Christ, and that God is an everlasting Father, and that the covenant of grace is everlasting, and that there is mercy in Israel for this thing; and the conceit [conception] of mercy must work our hearts to grief and shame. That is certain; for mark in the gospel, ‘Come unto me, all ye that are weary and heavy laden,’ Mat. xi. 28. He calls us when we find our consciences afflicted and tormented. ‘He came to save that which was lost,’ Mat. xviii. 11. By the blessed power of the Spirit, the blood of Christ is as a fountain ‘for Judah and Jerusalem to wash in,’ Zech. xiii. 1, and the ‘blood of Christ purgeth us from sin,’ 1 John i. 7; and Christ bids us for daily trespasses ask pardon, Mat. vi. 12. Daily therefore conceive goodness in God still, an everlasting current of mercy; and this must work upon us grief and shame, and recover and strengthen our faith again. For God’s children, after breaches, arise the stronger rather than ever they were before. But this only by the way. We see here how God’s glorious grace is conveyed to us, and what is wrought in us to apprehend it, a spiritual eye to see it, in the glass of the gospel, and ‘with open face we behold it,’ we may go boldly to the throne of grace.
    当然,要理解我们的罪在基督里是可宽恕的,上帝是永恒的父亲,恩典的约是永恒的,以色列有这样的怜悯;怜悯的观念必须使我们的心感到悲痛和羞愧。这是确定的;因为在福音中,记着“凡劳苦担重担的人,可以到我这里来”,太 11:28。当我们的良心受苦和折磨时,他呼召我们。“人子来,为要拯救失丧的人”,太 18:11。借着圣灵的祝福,基督的血就像一个泉源,“为犹大和耶路撒冷洗净”,亚 13:1,而“基督的血洗净我们的罪过”,约壹 1:7;基督命令我们每天为过犯寻求宽恕,太 6:12。因此,每天都要在上帝里构想善良,一股永恒的怜悯之流;这必须使我们感到悲痛和羞愧,并再次恢复和加强我们的信心。对于上帝的儿女来说,经历破裂后,他们比以往更加坚强。但这只是顺便说一下。 我们在这里看到上帝荣耀的恩典如何传达给我们,以及在我们内心中发生的事情,以理解它,用属灵的眼睛在福音的镜子中看到它,’我们以敞开的面孔看见它’,我们可以大胆地来到恩典的宝座。
