什么是至于死的罪和不至于死的罪

约翰一书里提到了不至于死的罪和至于死的罪。那什么是不至于死的罪，什么又是至于死的罪呢？

 

不至于死的罪是说一个人相信耶稣的死与复活，相信耶稣担当了他的罪，但正如哥林多前书所言还是婴孩阶段的基督徒，时不时跟随情欲走，诸如嫉妒，争竞，愤怒，抱怨，犯罪等等，看起来与非基督徒可能区别不大。但是因为他始终相信耶稣在十字架上担当了他的罪，相信耶稣的复活，所以他是得救的，只是他的基督的生命还处于开始成长的阶段，还没有接果子而已。这样的基督徒待在耶稣这棵葡萄树上，迟早会接果子的。

 

至于死的罪，就是说一个人一开始貌似相信了耶稣的死与复活，貌似相信了耶稣，但是不久或后来耳朵发痒，顺从情欲，不再相信耶稣的死与复活了，不再相信耶稣担当他的罪了，而是回到世界靠行摩西律法和/或积德行善去得救。希伯来书说，这等人得知真道后故意犯罪，赎罪的祭就再也没有了，这等人就是退后入沉沦的那等人。

 

约一5:16 人若看见弟兄犯了不至于死的罪、就当为他祈求、神必将生命赐给他．有至于死的罪、我不说当为这罪祈求。

If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and God will give him life for those who sin not leading to death. There is a sin leading to death. I don't say that he should make a request concerning this.

林前3:2 我是用奶喂你们、没有用饭喂你们．那时你们不能吃、就是如今还是不能。
I fed you with milk, not with meat; for you weren't yet ready. Indeed, not even now are you ready,
林前3:3 你们仍是属肉体的．因为在你们中间有嫉妒分争、这岂不是属乎肉体、照着世人的样子行么。
for you are still fleshly. For insofar as there is jealousy, strife, and factions among you, aren't you fleshly, and don't you walk in the ways of men?
 

来5:13 凡只能吃奶的、都不熟练仁义的道理．因为他是婴孩。
For everyone who lives on milk is not experienced in the word of righteousness, for he is a baby.

来10:26 因为我们得知真道以后、若故意犯罪、赎罪的祭就再没有了．

For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins,

来10:36 你们必须忍耐、使你们行完了神的旨意、就可以得着所应许的。

For you need endurance so that, having done the will of God, you may receive the promise.

来10:37 『因为还有一点点时候、那要来的就来、并不迟延。

"In a very little while, he who comes will come, and will not wait.

来10:38 只是义人必因信得生、〔义人有古卷作我的义人〕他若退后、我心里就不喜欢他。』

But the righteous will live by faith. If he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him."

来10:39 我们却不是退后入沉沦的那等人、乃是有信心以致灵魂得救的人。

But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the saving of the soul.
