直接上天堂
讀經: 約翰福音3章1-8節
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
金句: 「除他以外，別無拯救，因為在天下人間，沒有賜下別的名，我們可以靠著得救。」（使徒行傳4章12節）
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
全年讀經: 以西結書8-10章；希伯來書13章
有首古老的聖詩警告說：「談論天堂的人未必都能到那裡去。」因為天堂是上帝的居所，他的同在和榮耀在那裡完全呈現，他有絕對的主權決定誰能進入以及進入的條件。令人遺憾的是，其他信仰在談到進入天堂時，所給的都是錯誤的信息。 且拿一位著名女演員為例，當被問及信仰的問題時，她說：「我禱告，也讀聖經，這是我所讀過的最美的書。我應該會上天堂。不然的話，就沒道理。我沒做過任何壞事，我的良心很清潔，我的靈魂潔白如蘭花。我肯定直接上天堂。」
唯有上帝才能決定誰能直接上天堂。在聖經中，上帝的聖言告訴我們，惟有接受耶穌基督為個人救主的人才能進入天堂。使徒彼得說：「除他以外，別無拯救，因為在天下人間，沒有賜下別的名，我們可以靠著得救」（使徒行傳4章12節）。
對於個人的靈魂是否純潔，能否上天堂，自我判斷根本無效，唯有上帝的標準能算數。VCG
回家唯靠十架路，除此之外無他法；若非倚靠十架路，無法得見光明門。Pounds
相信基督才能得救進天堂。

Straight To HeavenREAD: John 3:1-8
Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name . . . by which we must be saved. —Acts 4:12 About this cover An old spiritual warns, “Everybody talkin’ ’bout heaven ain’t goin’ there.” Since heaven is God’s dwelling place where His presence and glory are manifested in all their splendor, He has the sovereign right to determine who will be admitted and under what conditions. Any other beliefs about the how and why of admission into heaven are sadly mistaken.
Take, for example, the confidence expressed by a well-known actress. Questioned about her faith, she replied, “I pray. I read the Bible. It’s the most beautiful book ever written. I should go to heaven; otherwise it’s not nice. I haven’t done anything wrong. My conscience is very clean. My soul is as white as those orchids over there, and I should go straight, straight to heaven.”
God alone determines who goes straight to heaven. In the Bible, God’s holy Word, He tells us that only those who have trusted in Jesus Christ as their personal Savior will be admitted. The apostle Peter said, “Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12).
Self-judgment regarding the purity of one’s soul and one’s heaven-deserving character is not the criterion. Only God’s Word gives us the standard for admission. —Vernon C Grounds
I must needs go home by the way of the cross,There’s no other way but this;I shall ne’er get sight of the gates of light,If the way of the cross I miss. —Pounds
Christ believed is salvation received and heaven gained.

【中新網】加拿大公布的一項研究報告顯示，加拿大男性中風的人數比女性高，但每年因中風死亡的女性卻比男性多，且這一差距還在擴大中。據北京青年報報導，該研究報告發現，1973年加拿大共有8500名女性、7700名男性死於中風。兩者差距10%。但30年後的2004年，加拿大死於中風的女性人數增加到8700人，而男性卻降低到4000人以下。也就是說，中風死亡女性高出男性45%。
報告認為，女性中風死亡率高的部分原因是女性平均壽命比男性長，但如果從年齡層來分析，導致女性中風的因素可能還有特別的情況，如20-40歲有偏頭痛的女性中風的機率較正常女性高出兩倍。
此外，婦女在偏頭痛發作期間，若看到發亮的點或出現盲點，中風的機率比正常人高出10倍。
同樣的，吸菸、高血壓、血栓症的婦女，如果服用避孕藥會增加中風的機率。
總之，由於女性懷孕、停經等生理變化，中風的危險因素較男性多。不過，婦女若能控制導致中風的危險因素如高血壓、高膽固醇等，此病還是可以預防的。（中新網）
