你有施虐的前科吗?Sample

看看我
如果我知道有一百个施虐者某个星期日出现在我们教会,我会说:“看看我,我很高兴你们来到这里,这是一个欢迎罪人的基督教会。在耶稣的时代,城里最坏的人就是税吏和娼妓,但耶稣也呼召他们跟从他。我们想更像耶稣,因此欢迎你来这里跟从耶稣”。
接着,带着心里的无限同情,我会继续说:“我们会凭着智慧欢迎你。我们不会让好赌成作教会的会计,也不会让嗜酒者去买圣餐用的红酒,更不会让施虐者在可能引发虐待行为的环境中独处。因此,为了我们的儿童事工,我们要做背景调查;我们会和假释官员沟通,并制定一个符合、甚或超过法律要求的个人计划。因为我们关心你和其他每一个人。”
我不确定听到这些信息的人会有什么反应,但我知道圣经对那些真心悔改的人如此说:“你看,你们依着上帝的意思忧愁,从此就生出何等的殷勤、自诉、自恨、恐惧、想念、热心、责罚。”(林后7:11)真心悔改的人会采取行动来证明自己,他们会顺服教会的领导。
如果你有施虐前科并且真想改变,请到教会去。即使你过去有后果,但为了你永恒的未来,基督教会能帮助你与耶稣同行。
