Respectable Sins: Confronting the Sins We Tolerate (Simplified Chinese Edition)
Description:
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION: Whatever happened to sin? Have Christians become so preoccupied with the major sins of society that we have lost sight of our need to deal with our own more subtle sins? Jerry Bridges addresses specific "acceptable" sins that we tend to tolerate in our lives-such as jealousy, anger, pride, unthankfulness, and judgmentalism. Jerry writes not from a height of spiritual accomplishment but from the trenches of his own battles with sin. In his admonitions, Jerry offers a message of hope in the profound mercy of the gospel and the transforming grace of God as the means to overcome our subtle sins. "If we are not humbled into repentance by Bridges' diagnosis of things that are wrong with us, then something is indeed wrong with us, and badly so. Read this book-we need to-and be ready for a gentle surgeon's sharp knife." J. I. Packer, professor of theology, Regent College; author of Knowing God; "Jerry Bridges has blessed us with this timely book designed to help us grow in grace and glorify and enjoy God as we ought. I can't think of any partner with whose help I'd rather tackle my own heart sins than Jerry." Ligion Duncan, adjunct professor, Reformed Theological Seminary; senior minister, First Presbyterian Church, Jackson, Mississippi. CHINESE DESCRIPTION: 罪怎么了?基督徒是否太过纠缠于社会上显著的罪,忽略了对付我们自身精炼、微妙的罪?毕哲思指出我们在生命中纵容的「可行的罪」,如嫉妒、愤怒、骄傲、不感恩、论断。毕哲思并非从属灵成就高峰的角度去写此书,而是从他自己与罪搏斗的战壕中写的。毕哲思提供了盼望的讯息,劝戒读者透过福音无比的恩慈、神改造生命的恩典去战胜微妙的罪。 「如果我们不能谦卑地面对毕哲思对罪的剖析,不能悔改,那么,我们是真有问题,确有问题。我们『需要』读此书,预备迎接外科医生温柔锋利的手术刀」巴刻JI Packer,加拿大维真神学院神学科教授,《认识神》Knowing God 的作者; 「毕哲思以此书祝福我们,此书适切地特别帮助我们在恩典中成长,荣耀、享受上帝,这都是我们应该做的。除了毕哲思之外,我再想不出任何人令我情愿与他一起对付我心里的罪。」邓亘J.
