你们不知道不义的人不能承受神的国吗?不要自欺,无论是行淫乱的、拜偶像的、奸淫的、作娈童的、亲男色的、偷窃的、贪心的、醉酒的、辱骂人的或勒索的,都不能承受神的国。你们有些人从前也是这样的,但现在借着我们主耶稣基督的名,靠着我们神的灵,都已经洗净了,圣洁了,称义了。(哥林多前书 6:9-11)
Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. (1 Corinthians 6:9-11)
We can all find ourselves in Paul’s list in 1 Corinthians. But when we confess our sin and accept the gift of eternal life paid for by the death of Jesus, we become a new creation saved by grace (Rom. 6:23; 2 Cor. 5:17).
