路加福⾳ 7:37 那城里有一个女人，是个罪人，知道耶稣在法利赛人家里坐席，就拿着盛香膏的玉瓶，(现代标点和合本)
Luke 7:37 And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil, (NKJV)
城⾥有⼀个⼥⼈，她是个罪⼈，可能是⼀名妓⼥。她在主耶稣的脚前哭泣，眼泪把主耶稣的脚弄湿了，她就⽤⾃⼰的头发擦⼲，然后⽤⾹膏抹耶稣的脚。有⼀个法利赛⼈看⻅了，⼼⾥就说：“耶稣不知道她是个什么样的⼥⼈吗？为什么允许她来碰触祂？”主耶稣知道法利赛⼈的想法，就维护这⼥⼈，说： 路加福⾳ 7:47 所以我告诉你，她许多的罪都赦免了，因为她的爱多，但那赦免少的，他的爱就少 (现代标点和合本)。 这告诉我们，当⼀个⼈知道⾃⼰许多的罪都赦免了，就⾃然⽽然得以过上⼀个充满爱的⽣活。因此，你相信你是有多被赦免的吗？ 我们并不完美；有时我们批评某⼈的同时， 后来发现到我们也有同样的⾏为。尽管我们都不完美，但今天，我们知道⾃⼰的软弱，犯了许多的罪，但我们也听到主耶稣对我们说：“你许多的罪都赦免了。”全都赦免了。当你意识到这⼀点，你会感谢主耶稣的救赎。离了祂，今天我们一无是处。因此，明⽩罪得赦免的真理对我们的⽣活⾄关重要且具有深远的影响。
There was a woman in the city who was a sinner, probably a prostitute. She was crying at Jesus’ feet, washing His feet with her tears and using her hair to wipe them dry, and then anointing Him with fragrant oil. A Pharisee saw this, and said to himself, “Doesn’t he know what kind of woman she is? Why does he allow her to touch him?” Jesus knew what the Pharisee was thinking and he defended this woman, saying: Luke 7:47 (NKJV) Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.” This tells us that a person who knows he is forgiven much will automatically live out a life that loves much. Therefore, do you know how much you are forgiven? We are not perfect. Sometimes we criticized someone for their actions, only to realise later that we behaved the same. Although we are imperfect, today, knowing our shortcomings, and with sins which are many, we hear Jesus saying, “All your sins are forgiven.” All forgiven. When you believe that you are forgiven much, you will thank Jesus for coming to save you. Without Him, today we are nothing. The truth of knowing we have been forgiven much is vital in our lives.
