尼爾．道格拉斯（Neil Douglas）登上飛往愛爾蘭的航班時，赫然發現竟有一位乘客坐在他的座位上，於是他跟對方打個招呼以解決問題。但沒想到對方一抬起頭，尼爾竟看到他跟自己長得幾乎一模一樣！在他們自拍留念時，旁觀的乘客都因他倆的相似度而忍俊不禁。後來，他們在一間旅館辦理入住時再次相遇，還在當地的一間酒吧第三次碰面。隔天早上，他們發現兩人的自拍照在社群媒體上瘋傳，因為他們的容貌是如此驚人地相似。

對於我們這些沒有雙胞姐妹或兄弟的人來說，看到一個與自己如此相像的人，確實會感到驚訝，但聖經告訴我們，當我們跟隨上帝，就會變得愈來愈像祂。舊約聖經記載，摩西因與上帝面對面交談，容貌有所改變。甚至「以色列人因摩西面上的榮光，不能定睛看他的臉」（哥林多後書3章7節；參閱出埃及記34章33-35節）。

今天，我們看到耶穌的榮光彰顯在許多人身上，這些人因為聖靈的工作而「變成了與主有同樣的形象」（哥林多後書3章18節，和合本修訂版，參閱8節）。隨著我們越認識上帝、越愛祂，我們的品格和屬靈生命也會改變，這改變在我們的內心或外表都能顯現出來。當上帝改變我們的心思意念，在你我人生旅程中的同伴必會察覺這些變化。

When Neil Douglas boarded his flight to Ireland, he discovered his seat was occupied by another passenger, so he began a conversation to sort out the discrepancy. When the passenger looked up to answer, Neil was face to face with his lookalike! Onlooking passengers laughed at the men’s resemblance while the two took a selfie. Later, they ran into each other again when checking into the same hotel and a third time at a local pub. The next morning, they discovered their selfie had gone viral on social media due to their striking facial similarities.

Bearing a resemblance to another human being is a surprise for those of us without a biological twin, but the Bible says we’ll begin to look more like God as we follow Him. In the Old Testament, Moses’ countenance was changed by his face-to-face encounter with God—so much so that “the Israelites could not look steadily at [his face] because of its glory” (2 Corinthians 3:7; see Exodus 34:33-35).

Today, we see the glory of Jesus revealed in people who “are being transformed into his image” through the ministry of the Spirit (2 Corinthians 3:18; see v. 8). Our growing knowledge of and love for God results in moral and spiritual transformation that’s visible both inwardly and outwardly. When God “makes over” our hearts and minds, it’s evident to our fellow travelers in this journey of life.
