马可福音第三章展现了一个耶稣行踪的缩影。第一段里他在会堂中与喜欢做伪君子的法利赛人对峙;第二段中他退到了自己经常散步的海边。主的一身花了很多时间在海边接触群众甚至多过进入圣城耶路撒冷,或许看到把圣城变为集市,暴殄天物的人们,令他痛心。在海边的这一段画面感非常强烈,【3:7 耶稣和门徒退到海边去,有许多人从加利利跟随他。3:8 还有许多人听见他所做的大事,就从犹太、耶路撒冷、以土买、约旦河外并推罗、西顿的四方来到他那里。3:9 他因为人多,就吩咐门徒叫一只小船伺候着,免得众人拥挤他。3:10他治好了许多人,所以凡有灾病的,都挤进来要摸他。3:11 污鬼无论何时看见他,就俯伏在他面前,喊着说“你是神的儿子!”3:12 耶稣再三地嘱咐他们,不要把他显露出来。】很有趣的是鬼都认识耶稣是神,称他是神的儿子,而他却嘱咐他们住嘴,并强调他自己是人子。为什么主要称他自己是人子呢?!
下面一些章节或许能找到些线索【约翰福音1:1太初有道,道与神同在,道就是神,这道太初与神同在。1:14 道成了肉身、住在我们中间、充充满满的有恩典有真理。我们也见过他的荣光、正是父独生子的荣光。】;【约翰一书4:1 亲爱的弟兄阿、一切的灵、你们不可都信。总要试验那些灵是出于神的不是。因为世上有许多假先知已经出来了。4:2 凡灵认耶稣基督是成了肉身来的、就是出于神的。从此你们可以认出神的灵来。4:3 凡灵不认耶稣、就不是出于神。这是那敌基督者的灵。你们从前听见他要来。现在已经在世上了。】由此可看出,道就是神,道成了肉身,既是神成了人子。鬼承认耶稣是神,却不认他成了人,这里有什么蹊跷呢?【罗马书8:3律法既因肉体软弱、有所不能行的,神就差遣自己的儿子、成为罪身的形状、作了赎罪祭、在肉体中定了罪案。】可见道成肉身是救赎计划中不可或缺的一环,若神永远是神,不变为人,就无法替罪人死。鬼当然不想让人知道神变为了人来救我们罪人,所以他只承认了真理的一半。【哥林多后书5:14 原来基督的爱激励我们。因我们想一人既替众人死、众人就都死了。】而这个救赎的伟大真理【道就是神,道成了肉身】上下文是不能分割的,有了上文没下文,我们就与神无关,有了下文无上文,我们的救赎之源无法确定。如今异端邪说盛行,就是狡猾的魔鬼在这个真理上总做手脚。魔鬼可以破坏道,即说耶稣不是神,或是破坏肉身,说神没变为人。我们就落入魔鬼的圈套了。感激主从高天降生到低微的马槽,这位真正的基督,没有百老汇歌剧救世主中的招摇,也不是成功神学中兜售的灵丹妙药,而是朴实无华,却真爱无限流露的主,【以赛亚书53:2 他在耶和华面前生长如嫩芽、像根出于干地。他无佳形美容、我们看见他的时候、也无美貌使我们羡慕他。53:3 他被藐视、被人厌弃、多受痛苦、常经忧患。他被藐视、好像被人掩面不看的一样。我们也不尊重他。53:4 他诚然担当我们的忧患、背负我们的痛苦。我们却以为他受责罚、被神击打苦待了53:5 哪知他为我们的过犯受害、为我们的罪孽压伤。因他受的刑罚我们得平安。因他受的鞭伤我们得医治。53:6 我们都如羊走迷、各人偏行己路。耶和华使我们众人的罪孽都归在他身上。53:7 他被欺压、在受苦的时候却不开口。他像羊羔被牵到宰杀之地、又像羊在剪毛的人手下无声、他也是这样不开口。53:8 因受欺压和审判他被夺去。至于他同世的人、谁想他受鞭打、从活人之地被剪除、是因我百姓的罪过呢。53:9 他虽然未行强暴、口中也没有诡诈、人还使他与恶人同埋。谁知死的时候与财主同葬。53:10 耶和华却定意将他压伤、使他受痛苦。耶和华以他为赎罪祭。他必看见后裔、并且延长年日。耶和华所喜悦的事、必在他手中亨通。53:11 他必看见自己劳苦的功效、便心满意足。有许多人、因认识我的义仆得称为义。并且他要担当他们的罪孽。】
According to Gospel of Mark chapter 3 when Jesus went to sea【3:7 But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea: and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea, 3:8 And from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and from beyond Jordan; and they about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they had heard what great things he did, came unto him. 3:9 And he spake to his disciples, that a small ship should wait on him because of the multitude, lest they should throng him. 3:10 For he had healed many; insomuch that they pressed upon him for to touch him, as many as had plagues. 3:11 And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him, and cried, saying, Thou art the Son of God. 3:12 And he straitly charged them that they should not make him known.】Why the unclean spirits (demons) always address our Lord as the son of God,while our lord always calls himself the son of man?Maybe the following chapters will help us to find some clues:【John1:1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John1:14And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.】【1John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:3And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.】It's funny to see even Demons confess Jesus is son of God, however they confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh,but why they did not say He's son of man? Romans chapter 8 has given reason why Christ is son of man,and if we miss out this,we are falling into Demon's trap【3For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:】so that we see,if Demons made us not aware of the fact that Jesus is son of man,then He can not save us.The craftiness of demons is beyond our wildest imagination, when they deceived, they did it with the words of God, as how it did with Eve at the begining【Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He said to the woman,Did God really say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?】they can either pervert the Word truth which is the trinity God, or pervert the Man truth which is the God became flesh, so either way can prevent us from being saved!And the fundamental truth always is the two come together as our basis of salvation【the Word was God,and the Word became flesh(man)】
