5月19日:雅各的煩惱——上帝與以色列特殊的關係

耶路撒冷的罪

以色列把她的背叛和罪向全世界誇耀。耶路撒冷,這個上帝曾經將她的名字放在上面的城市,成為了所有邪惡和歪理遊行示眾的目標。

以賽亞書3:8-9

耶路撒冷敗落,猶大傾倒。因為他們的舌頭,和行為,與耶和華反對,惹了他榮光的眼目。他們的面色證明自己的不正。他們述說自己的罪惡,並不隱瞞,好像所多瑪一樣。他們有禍了。因為作惡自害。

祈求耶路撒冷的領導們能夠為神聖和公義站起來。

Bernhard Lichtenberg was a German Catholic priest in Berlin. From the beginning of the Nazi movement he spoke out against it. He prayed openly daily from his pulpit for the Jews, Jewish Christians and other victims of the Nazis. He was arrested and he asked to be deported with the Jews, but died on prison of ill health prior to being sent to Dachau. See more at www.yadvashem.org
