被神抓住
使徒行傳九章1至11節
1掃羅仍然向主的門徒口吐威嚇兇殺的話，去見大祭司，
2求文書給大馬士革的各會堂，若是找著信奉這道的人，無論男女，都准他捆綁帶到耶路撒冷。
3掃羅行路，將到大馬士革，忽然從天上發光，四面照著他。
4他就仆倒在地，聽見有聲音對他說：“掃羅，掃羅！你為甚麼逼迫我？”
5他說：“主啊，你是誰？”主說：“我就是你所逼迫的耶穌。
6起來！進城去，你所當做的事，必有人告訴你。”
7同行的人站在那裡，說不出話來，聽見聲音，卻看不見人。
8掃羅從地上起來，睜開眼睛，竟不能看見甚麼。有人拉他的手，領他進了大馬士革。
9三日不能看見，也不吃，也不喝。
10當下，在大馬士革有一個門徒，名叫亞拿尼亞。主在異象中對他說：“亞拿尼亞。”他說：“主，我在這裡。”
11主對他說：“起來！往直街去，在猶大的家裡，訪問一個大數人，名叫掃羅，他正禱告；
信息分享
故事中的主角正是這樣的人，直到他被神抓住為止。在他的身上，我們看見當一個人認識耶穌基督之後，他的生命將會如何被徹底改變。保羅最喜歡述說的故事，就是他本人悔改信主的故事。
有些人說：「我不相信有人會突然改變。」誠然，每個人的悔改信主經歷並不相同，但總有一刻是從自信自恃，轉變為相信耶穌基督。那刻的改變是很巨大的啊！
約瑟‧柏加博士曾說：「有人說保羅是一個瘋子。但他由一個曾經褻瀆神的人，變為一個禱告神的人；由一個逼迫教會的人，變成一個宣教勇士；就讓我們有更多這類瘋子吧！阿們。」
保羅的悔改信主，是一個千真萬確的事實。自從他遇見基督之後，直至他離世與主面對面相見，他都從沒有一刻對祂產生任何質疑。保羅自言：「我知所信的是誰。」能夠親身並永遠地與基督認識，是何等的美好！
你有為得著主的拯救而感謝祂嗎？
ARRESTED BY GOD
Acts 9: 1-11
1 Then Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest
2 and asked letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, so that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
3 As he journeyed he came near Damascus, and suddenly a light shone around him from heaven.
4 Then he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?”
5 And he said, “Who are You, Lord?”
Then the Lord said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.[a] It is hard for you to kick against the goads.”
6 So he, trembling and astonished, said, “Lord, what do You want me to do?”
Then the Lord said to him, “Arise and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.”
7 And the men who journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice but seeing no one.
8 Then Saul arose from the ground, and when his eyes were opened he saw no one. But they led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus.
9 And he was three days without sight, and neither ate nor drank.
10 Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias; and to him the Lord said in a vision, “Ananias.”
And he said, “Here I am, Lord.”
11 So the Lord said to him, “Arise and go to the street called Straight, and inquire at the house of Judas for one called Saul of Tarsus, for behold, he is praying.
Message
The man in our story was like that until he was arrested by God. He is an illustration of how completely a man's life can be changed when he comes face to face with Jesus Christ. Paul loved to tell that story - the story of his conversion.
Some people say, “'I don't believe in sudden conversions.” Is there any other kind? Every conversion is different but there comes that moment of turning away from all self-confidence and turning to Jesus Christ. What a change comes in that moment!
Dr. Joseph Parker said, “Some people say Paul had an epileptic fit. But previously he was a blasphemer, now he is praying. Before he was a persecutor, now he is a missionary warrior. Let's have more of that kind of epilepsy.” Amen!
There was no doubt about Paul's conversion. The reality of Christ never left him from that day on until he saw Christ face to face and met in Heaven the saints who had gone on before. Paul said it himself, “I know whom I have believed.” Isn't it wonderful to be able to know Christ personally and eternally like that?
Have you thanked him today for your salvation?
