2012 – Salvation for ALL?
[2012] is a movie that ‘predicts’ the end of the world by the year 2012! Is it real or fake? I would say the Americans – as usual – are very imaginative people if not naïve. When the Americans start imagining, the whole world starts running wild in their imaginations and buying the Americans’ imagination hook, line, and sinker! Well, the world may not end in 2012 (at least I don’t think so), but it is certainly heading towards that direction.
Interestingly (if not coincidentally), Revelation 2012 (chapter 20 verse 12) has this recorded (and this is for real!). When the world does end, John says this is what he saw in his vision:
(verse 12):
[And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. ] (I encourage you to read verse 11 and 13 too)
When the world really ends (2012 or 2???), are you prepared to face the Lord?
There are two things I observed in the movie – Tibetan theme (the Tibetan guy saving the American family) and salvation for all (the captain said ‘what is the point of preserving humanity when we are acting so inhuman to those outside the ship by shutting the gate of the ship on their faces?). Moving speech! The idea of the ‘salvation ship’ may sound like the Noah’s Ark, but I have a problem with this ‘salvation ship’, for it speaks of a universal salvation for all without even mentioning the issue of SIN!
2012 – 不談’罪’的救恩?
最近有一套電影,名為 [2012]。其內容是描述世界未日將在2012年到來。是真是假 ? 我只能說美國人一向都是那樣的天真又極富想像力。但全球各地的人則常被他們的‘天真’及‘想像力’所牽引,以致胡思亂想,以假亂真,信以為真。儘管我肯定未日遲早會發生,但未必會在2012年到來。
有趣的是,在聖經啟示錄2012 (20章12節)也提到有關未日的情景 (這可不是鬧著玩的! )。當未日來臨時,約翰見到的異象就是如下:
「我又看見死了的人,無論大小,都站在寶座前。案卷展開了,並且另有一卷展開,就是生命冊。死了的人都憑著這些案卷所記載的,照他們所行的受審判。」
當未日真的在(2012或2???) 來臨的時侯,你是否會作好準備面對神呢 ?
在電影裡我留意到兩件事:就是那西藏僧‘拯救’一個美國家庭,及,影片中似乎在傳揚一個‘普救論’(Universal Salvation )的信息(即,人可以不用認罪,上帝即然愛世人,就不應有人下地獄等古怪信息)。 片中船長聲稱:「在這滅絕人類大災難到來的時刻,為了確保人類不會滅絕而只拯救一些人,進而沒有人性的將所有未及登船的人都拒諸門外,見死不救的話,那我們還是人嗎?」好一句扣人心弦的台詞 ! 片中的「拯救船」看似仿傚聖經記載的「挪亞方舟」。但我卻覺得這艘所謂的‘拯救船’沒有提及如何處理「罪得赦免,才可得救」的關鍵。這是普救論,不是基督教的信仰!
