For one sin!
仅仅一个罪！
(Arthur Pink, “The Godhood of God“)
阿瑟·平克所著《神的神性》
The God of Scripture is infinite in Holiness. The “only true God” is He who hates sin with a perfect abhorrence, and whose nature eternally burns against it.
圣经中的神在圣洁上是无限的。这位”独一真神”是那位完全憎恶罪的神，祂的本性永远与罪为敌。
He is the One who beheld the wickedness of the antediluvians, and who opened the windows of Heaven and poured down the flood of His righteous indignation!
祂是那位看到大洪水之前人类的邪恶，打开天上的窗户，倾倒祂公义愤怒之洪水的神！
He is the One who rained fire and brimstone upon Sodom and Gomorrah, and utterly destroyed these cities of the plain!
祂是那位降火与硫磺在所多玛和蛾摩拉上，完全毁灭这些平原城市的神！
He is the One who sent the plagues upon Egypt, and destroyed her haughty monarch together with his hosts at the Red Sea!
祂是那位降灾于埃及，在红海消灭她傲慢的君王和他的军队的神！
He is the One who caused the earth to open its mouth and swallow alive Korah and his rebellious company!
祂是那位使地开口，生吞可拉和他叛逆同伴的神！
Yes, He is the One who “spared not His own Son” when He was “made sin for us – that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.”
是的，祂是那位当祂的儿子”为我们成为罪”时”不爱惜自己的儿子”的神 – 为要使我们在祂里面成为神的义。
So holy is God, and such is the antagonism of His nature against evil, that…
神如此圣洁，祂的本性如此与邪恶对立，以至于…
for one sin, He banished our first parents from Eden;
因一个罪，祂将我们的始祖逐出伊甸园；
for one sin, He cursed the posterity of Ham;

for one sin, the servant of Elisha was smitten with leprosy!

And this is the God that every Christ-rejector has yet to meet in judgment!
这就是每个拒绝基督之人将要在审判中面对的神！
