「耶稣基督昨日、今日，一直到永远是一样的。」（8节）

经文
希伯来书十三章1至16节

1你们务要常存弟兄相爱的心。

2不可忘记用爱心接待客旅；因为曾有接待客旅的，不知不觉就接待了天使。

3你们要记念被捆绑的人，好像与他们同受捆绑；也要记念遭苦害的人，想到自己也在肉身之内。

4婚姻，人人都当尊重，床也不可污秽；因为苟合行淫的人，神必要审判。

5你们存心不可贪爱钱财，要以自己所有的为足；因为主曾说：我总不撇下你，也不丢弃你。

6所以我们可以放胆说：主是帮助我的，我必不惧怕；人能把我怎么样呢？

7从前引导你们、传神之道给你们的人，你们要想念他们，效法他们的信心，留心看他们为人的结局。

8耶稣基督，昨日、今日、一直到永远、是一样的。

9你们不要被那诸般怪异的教训勾引了去；因为人心靠恩得坚固才是好的，并不是靠饮食。那在饮食上专心的从来没有得着益处。

10我们有一祭坛，上面的祭物是那些在帐幕中供职的人不可同吃的。

11原来牲畜的血被大祭司带入圣所作赎罪祭；牲畜的身子被烧在营外。

12所以，耶稣要用自己的血叫百姓成圣，也就在城门外受苦。

13这样，我们也当出到营外，就了他去，忍受他所受的凌辱。

14我们在这里本没有常存的城，乃是寻求那将来的城。

15我们应当靠着耶稣，常常以颂赞为祭献给神，这就是那承认主名之人嘴唇的果子。

16只是不可忘记行善和捐输的事；因为这样的祭，是神所喜悦的。

"Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever" (v.8)

Bible reading:
Hebrews 13:1-16

1 Keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters.

2 Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.

3 Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.

4 Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.

5 Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."[a]

6 So we say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?"[b]

7 Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.

8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

9 Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings. It is good for our hearts to be strengthened by grace, not by eating ceremonial foods, which is of no benefit to those who do so.

10 We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle have no right to eat.

11 The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering, but the bodies are burned outside the camp.

12 And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood.

13 Let us, then, go to him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace he bore.

14 For here we do not have an enduring city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.

15 Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that openly profess his name.

16 And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
