当我们谈到犹太人与外邦人蒙福的链锁，我们是迈进人类历史的结束。在此真理中，我们要得着神赐给我们个人生命与末后时代的社会的领悟。对个人生命的造就来说，我们要更深层的认识神在基督里的恩典。这恩典深无可侧，没有一个人能够预知神的全盘救赎计划，神的救恩要临到谁就临到谁，要开导谁就开导谁。我们只不过是历史的见证人，当我们一边看圣经，一边看历史的时候，我们不能想象主的救赎能够从那在耶路撒冷极少的一群门徒能传到今日全球，而这领受者当中有“我”。所以，我们这今日能站在基督恩典中的人无可夸耀，而一生只能赞叹的问主：“主啊，为何你的奇妙恩典尽然能临到我？”当世人都活在罪恶里，偏行己路，追寻私欲而活的当儿，我既然受到神的干涉，能得听这福音而进入变化与翻转。这本是来自你的主权，极度难测之事。可能，有时当我们处在一些个人的忧患中，我们的心可能会一时忘记这恩典，但我们若静下来深思与祷告，马上会面对一个不变的事实：就是在整个人类历史，大帝国的兴起衰微，人类文明的变迁中，救赎竟临到我。甚至源自犹太的神圣福音至今都没办法受到绝大犹太子民的接纳，却被我这微不足道的外邦人蒙受，这能理解吗？当我们因我们的失败、挫折、忧患而感到痛苦时，唯有我们回到那“竟然临到我的天恩”的真相，我们才能从那短暂、可变、相对的问题得释放，得蒙圣灵给予我们的安慰与能力。其实，我们今天并不是因苦难被折磨，乃是忘记恩典而被折磨。事实上，当我们因我们稍好的条件感到优越安稳，或是因不理想的条件感到自卑沮丧，那都是忘记恩典的心灵，那也便会叫我们随时被吞吃了。但愿生为一个末世时代的信徒，我们能从神那奇妙的恩典得着非凡的眼光与奥妙的能力，以至在这忧患充满的时代成为一个大而有力的见证者。另外，当我们深思犹太人与外邦人蒙福的链锁（犹太人 → 外邦人 → 犹太人 → 救赎完工，基督再临），试问这日子多靠近呢？当我们看见这变化无双的世界与社会风潮一直要吞吃教会（如同《启 9:13-16》第六号的预言），我们是进入昏沉的状态，还是急迫的心态呢？当我们以谨慎的心分辨时候，我们心里是否对这日子的临近有数呢？至2015年9月的犹太安息年 (Year of Shemitah)，世界股市蒸发了11万亿美元。有圣经经济学家说这不是华尔街定期的衰退，乃是长期下跌的开始。当我们听到这样的消息时，有的人是忧心，有的人是寻找投机的时机，但那末世的余民却是对那将要临到的末时与灾难看得更清晰，以至迅速传福音，这样的信徒也才能蒙保守。因此，活在今时的我们要从这启示确知传福音的必要性与急迫性。这也是神将末日启示赐给我们的本意了。

When we talk about the connections between the blessedness of Jews and Gentiles, we are approaching the end of human history. In this truth, we must receive the enlightenment that God has given to our individual lives and society in the end times. For an individual’s edification, we must understand the grace in Christ more deeply. The depth of this grace is immeasurable, and no one can foresee the whole redemption plan of God. The salvation will come to and guide whomever God pleases. We are merely witnesses of this historical development. As we read the Bible and see how history unfolds, we cannot imagine how the Lord’s salvation can spread from a small group of disciples in Jerusalem to all over the world today, with “me” as one of the recipients of this salvation. Therefore, those who stand in the grace of Christ can have nothing to boast about, but only can spend the whole life to exclaim to the Lord, “Lord, how is it that your amazing grace can come upon me?” When the people of the world are living in sin, going their own ways, seeking to fulfill their selfish desires, my life is intervened by God, so that I can hear the gospel and enter into transformation and repentance. This comes from God’s sovereignty and is very difficult to fathom. When we are in some personal problems, we may possibly forget this grace for a moment, but when we quiet down to ponder deeply and pray, we will be faced with a unchanging truth: in the whole history of mankind, through the rise and fall of great empires, through the progress of human civilisation, the salvation has actually come to me. Why is it that when the Jews, from whom the gospel comes from, is not able to accept the gospel till today, I, an insignificant Gentile can receive this blessing? Is this understandable? When we are feeling miserable about our failures, setbacks and pain, we can only go back to the truth “how heavenly grace has come upon me”, to be set free from the temporal, changing and relative problems and receiving the comfort and power from the Holy Spirit. Actually, today we are not tortured by our sufferings, but we are tormented because we forget about grace. In fact, when we have slightly better conditions and feel superior and secured, or when we feel inferior and depressed with less than ideal conditions, that is because our spirit has forgotten about grace. That will cause us to be devoured anytime. As a believer in the end times, we must receive extraordinary perspectives and amazing power from the amazing grace, so that we can be powerful witnesses in this era full of pain and sufferings. Also, when we ponder deeply about the connections between the blessedness of Jews and Gentiles (Jews -> Gentiles -> Jews -> Completion of Salvation - > Second Coming of Christ), we must ask, how close is this day? When we see this ever-changing world and culture persistently attempting to devour the church (like the prophecy of the 6th trumpet in Re 9:13-15), do we enter into a state of daze or urgency? When we differentiate with a cautious heart, do we know that the day is coming? Till September 2015, Year of Shemitah, the world stock market has lost $11 trillion in value. Some biblical economists said that this is not the Wall Street’s cyclical downturn, but the beginning of a long decline. When we hear such news, some people are worried, some are looking for investment opportunities, but the remnants of the end times must see more clearly the coming of the end times and disasters, and spread the gospel more rapidly. This is how believers can be protected. Therefore, we, who are living in the current times, must know the importance and urgency of evangelism, from this revelation. This is also the reason why God has given us the revelation of the end days.
