How your true identity is restored

You were knitted with a spirit in your mother’s womb, 

Which was created by God embedding your identity.

However, after you came to this world, with flesh and blood,

Your spirit, like a lamp, goes dark without light while functioning in the material world.

Until your spirit is awaken by the Holy Spirit,

Through listening to the truth in the Bible.

Like the oil is poured in and the Holy Spirit’s fire ignites your lamp,

Your mind which has been shaped by worldly values is enlightened to see the unseen God.

Then your mind confesses the inner disorder shaken by the Truth,

When your soul encounters the Author of the Truth of Jesus Christ,

And your will repents for the lies you believe.

Finally your soul is reordered according to your true identity, 

Which is transformed by the Holy Spirit,

In your awakened and reborn spirit through faith in the Savior.

This is your true identity restored,

Not by the mind, or changing your physical body,

But by the spirit,

You will live,

Freely and abundantly.

But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by his grace, was pleased  to reveal his Son in me… (Galatians 1:15-16a)

《你真實身份的恢復》

你在母腹中被精心編織,
靈是與生俱來的,
那是神創造的,並且將你的身份嵌入其中。
然而,當你帶著血肉之軀來到這個世界,
你的靈就像燈一樣,在物質世界中運作,卻失去了光,陷入黑暗。

直到有一天,你的靈被聖靈喚醒,
透過聆聽聖經中的真理,
就如同油被倒入,聖靈的火點燃了你的燈,
你那被世俗價值觀塑造的心思被光照,能看見那看不見的上帝。

於是你的心承認那因真理而震動的內在混亂,
當你的靈魂遇見真理的源頭——耶穌基督,
你的意志為你曾相信的謊言而悔改。

最終,你的靈魂按照你真實的身份重生,
藉著聖靈的更新轉化,
在你被喚醒、重生的靈中,因信靠救主而活。

這,就是你真實身份的恢復。
不是靠思想、也不是靠肉體的改變,
而是靠著靈,
你要活著,
自由且豐盛。

然而那把我從母腹裡分別出來、又施恩召我的神,既然樂意將他兒子啟示在我心裡…(加拉太書1:15-16a)
