PROVERBS 22:4
箴言 22:4
4 The reward of humility and the [reverent, worshipful] fear of the Lord is riches, honour, and life.
敬畏耶和华心存谦卑,就得富有、尊荣、生命为赏赐。 

Humility: THE RIGHT VIEW OF YOURSELF
谦卑:正确看待自己
The Book of Proverbs offers a wealth of wisdom and insight for living a godly and fulfilling life.  It also praises humility as one of life's greatest virtues. In this passage, King Solomon teaches us that humility has its rewards: Riches, honour and life.  Pride also has its reward: Failure and death.  There is fake humility (pretending to be humble) and true humility (genuine humbleness and meekness before men and God. 
箴言讲述了过敬虔和有意义的生活所需要的丰富智慧和洞察力。它同时赞美了生活中最重要的一项品德谦卑。在这段经文中,所罗门王教导我们谦卑所获得的赏赐:富有,尊荣和生命。骄傲也有它的回报:失败和死亡。谦卑有真(在人和神面前真实的谦卑与柔和)有假(假装谦卑)。
Here are some ways we can look at True Humility:
这里有一些方法使我们可以识别真正的谦卑:
1) Is dependence on God.  It is recognizing our need for His presence in every area of our lives
依赖神。在我们生活的每个领域认识到与神同在的需求
2) Seeks to glorify God; it does not seek attention or self-promotion
寻求荣耀神;而不是寻求关注或自我提升。
3) Does not seek a reward; it takes pleasure in serving God and others
不寻求回报;以喜乐服侍神和他人。
4) Is having an opinion of one’s self-based on the Word of God; not worldly achievements 
把自我建立在神的话语之上,而不是属世的成就,以此为价值观。

What helps us to have a correct view of ourselves?  
如何帮助我们建立正确的自我认知?

It begins with having a reverential fear of God. When we look at ourselves in the light of God's glory, we will have a correct view of ourselves. John the Baptist gives an excellent example of true humility.  During his ministry, some people thought that he was the promised Messiah.  However, he set the record straight, recognizing that he was the one to bear witness of the Light.  Regarding his relation to the Christ, he says, “He (Jesus) must increase and I must decrease.”  The greatest form of humility is surrendering our lives to God completely and unconditionally.  May we find joy in walking humbly before our God。
首先要有对神的敬畏。当我们以神的荣耀看我们自己时,我们就会正确的看待自己。施洗约翰对谦卑给出了极好的例证。在他的使命过程中,有些人认为他就是那应许的弥赛亚。然而他直接进行了澄清,认识到他是为光做见证的那位。关于他和基督的关系,他说,“他必兴旺,我必衰微。”谦卑最伟大的形式就是把我们的生命完全和无条件地顺服于神。在神面前谦卑行走我们就会找到喜乐。

PROVERBS 21:2
箴言 21:2 
2 Every man’s way is right in his own eyes, But the Lord weighs and examines the hearts.
人所行的,在自己眼中都看为正,惟有耶和华衡量人心。 
RIGHT MOTIVES
正确的动机
All of us love to do things for God, and we don’t mind receiving praise for it…Amen!  My former Pastor Mark said that we live for an audience of One...we do things for God and God alone.  God not only watches what we do, He also observes why we do it.  Which raises the following question:  Are our motives pure in serving God?
我们都喜欢为神做事,我们也不在乎是否为此获得赞美...阿们!我之前的牧师马克说,我们活着只为一个观众...我们为了神也唯独为了神做一切事。神不仅观看我们做了什么,他还在观察我们为什么这么做。这就提出了以下问题:我们的目的是纯粹为了服侍神吗?

The Lord is more concerned about our motives than the actions we engage in.  We may be able to fool man, but we can never fool God.  He knows our hearts, our motives, and our thoughts.  So, when you decide to do anything for the Lord, make sure that it is out of love for Him and concern for your fellow man.
神更关注我们做事的动机而不是行为。我们也许会瞒住人,但无法瞒住神。他了解我们内心,我们的动机以及思想。所以,当你决定为神做事的时候,确保是出于对他的爱以及关心自己的同工。

God bless you
 愿神祝福你

"We are happy when we see persecution come
in our country. People are thirsty to know more
about the faith when they don't see any hope."
~ An Algerian church leader


DR CONGO: Increasing Violence by IS Terrorists

According to an analysis conducted by BBC Monitoring, the self-declared terrorist group, Islamic State (IS), and its affiliated members have significantly escalated a campaign of violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo. During the first half of 2023, the terrorists claimed to have instigated 58 violent attacks in the DR Congo, targeting those whom they identify as Christians. These attacks are concentrated in the eastern provinces of North Kivu and Ituri.


This influx of violence took place despite the fact that the number of attacks in the southeastern African country of Mozambique has dropped significantly since the previous year. Statistics indicate that, in 2022, Mozambique bore the brunt of the aggression perpetrated by IS; however, the jihadist group has lost considerable influence in that country during recent months.


The terrorist group's recently published propaganda boasts that its militants have plundered Christian villages and massacred local residents of these targeted communities. The group justifies their attacks by claiming that the Quran dictates that Christians must either pay a tax (Jizya), convert to Islam, or face death. There is no indication that the first two options were offered to any of the Christians affected by the recent attacks.


The DR Congo is considered predominantly Christian, with Muslims making up a little more than one percent of the population. Therefore, any time the militant Islamic group launches an attack in the country, its members could assumedly imply that it was perpetrated against "Christians." Nevertheless, IS fighters have been clearly targeting Christians in their efforts to establish an Islamic nation within central Africa. In their weekly newsletter, al-Naba, they claim the attacks are "avenging Muslims killed or imprisoned by Christian armies." Yet, since the group's ability to attack armed forces has been diminished, the recently occurring violence has mainly been inflicted on civilians.


Prayerfully ask the Lord to minister His peace and comfort to the many innocent people who have been affected by these escalated attacks. Pray that the governing authorities of this Central African nation will receive the wisdom and resources needed to put a stop to this violence and prevent it from reoccurring. Please also intercede on behalf of those responsible for the attacks. May they be convicted of their horrific crimes against humanity and, through the power of the Holy Spirit, also be brought to a point of repentance and salvation.


REPORT UPDATES
VIETNAM: Imprisoned Pastor Faces Health Issues

Vietnamese pastor Nguyen Trung Ton was imprisoned in 2011 on charges of "anti-state propaganda." He was rearrested in 2017 and convicted in April 2018 for "carrying out activities aimed at overthrowing the government." The Christian leader was sentenced to 12 years in prison. (To review previously published information on the pastor's sentencing, go to this page.)


According to a report from Radio Free Asia, Pastor Nguyen has been suffering from a persistent cough following COVID-19 but was denied any medical treatment. He also has an eye condition resulting in almost total loss of his vision. The pastor's wife, Nguyen Thi Lanh, has expressed concern for her husband's life due to the poor prison conditions.


The inhumane treatment and lack of medical care in prisons throughout Vietnam are believed to have contributed to the deaths of several political prisoners in recent years, including Lutheran pastor Dinh Diem in January 2023.


Please pray for great improvement to take place regarding Pastor Nguyen's overall well-being, asking the Lord to grant him physical healing, as well as needed spiritual strength and encouragement. May the authorities be moved to release this long-suffering church leader, along with other believers who have been imprisoned in Vietnam because of their Christian faith and defence of human rights. Also ask the Lord to minister to Pastor Nguyen's wife as she deals with this difficult time of separation, and the resulting inability to care for her husband during his time of need.


ALGERIA: Christian Convert Receives Presidential Pardon
Source: Middle East Concern
A man checking his phone


 
Algerian Christians are rejoicing over the release of Hamid Soudad, a Christian convert who was sentenced in March 2021 to five years in prison for blasphemy (read more). Hamid was among the 8,500-plus prisoners who were released or had their sentences decreased as part of the Algerian Independence Day celebrations on July 5th.


Married with four young children, Hamid has been a believer since 2001. In 2018, he shared a caricature of the Islamic prophet Muhammad on social media, which resulted in his arrest. For more about the persecution of Christians in Algeria, go to our country report.


Praise God that this believer has been pardoned and, as a result, is now happily reunited with his young family! Pray that Hamid will fully recover from the ordeal, so he can transition well to life beyond the confinement of prison walls. Throughout the process, may the Lord minister in wonderful ways to Hamid and his family, providing them great peace, healing from the trauma of his imprisonment, and guidance as they anticipate a brighter future. Continue to prayerfully uphold this North African nation, praying that our Algerian Christian brothers and sisters will be granted freedom to worship God and share their faith without the threat of charges or imprisonment.


ERITREA: Pastors Endured 7,000 Days in Prison

In 2002, the government of Eritrea passed legislation that locked down religious freedom in the country, outlawing every religion except Sunni Islam, Eritrean Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism and Lutheranism. Since that time, hundreds of believers have been detained without charge and often held for many years without trial.


Before his arrest, Pastor Haile Naizgi* was the chair of the Full Gospel Church of Eritrea – a network comprised of approximately 150 house church groups. These church groups were forcibly closed by a governmental decree but given an application form for official registration. Although the mandated forms were completed and submitted, the representing church leaders received no further contact from the government – until Pastor Haile's arrest in May 2004. He has remained in prison under deplorable conditions ever since.


Another church leader, Dr. Kiflu Gebremeskel, served as the chair of the Eritrean Evangelical Alliance and a member of the executive committee of the Full Gospel Church when he was arrested during an early morning raid on May 23rd, 2004. For more details on the initial arrests of these two church leaders, go to this page.


This past weekend marked a heartbreaking milestone, as these two Christian men passed their 7,000th day in prison. Reflecting on this solemn anniversary, Todd Neddleton from VOM USA stated: "[That equates to] one thousand weeks away from their families. Children that were very young when their fathers were arrested are now college graduates and even parents themselves. How many family milestones have these two Christians missed over the past 7,000 days? As a father and a grandfather, I weep at the thought of all the significant moments they have sacrificed for the sake of Christ and His Kingdom."


Greg Musselman, host of the video podcast, Closer to the Fire, recently interviewed Dr. Berhane Asmelash from Release Eritrea about the difficult situation facing these Christian leaders, as well as the estimated 400 other believers who remain detained in Eritrea without trial or legal representation. To view this informative podcast, and learn more about persecution in Eritrea, go to VOMCanada.com/video/ReleaseEritrea1.


Prayerfully uphold Pastor Haile and Dr. Kiflu as they endure this lengthy time of captivity, asking that these faithful believers will receive greatly needed encouragement, strength and hope. Please also pray for God's sustaining grace over the lives their wives, children and grandchildren. May the governing political leaders of countries around the world take a stand against such human rights abuses, petitioning Eritrean governmental officials to allow freedom of conscience and religion, as well as the safe release of all who are presently being arbitrarily detained.


*Note: Pastor Haile Naizgi's translated surname has also been spelled "Naizghi" or "Nayzgi" in previously published reports by various news sources. VOMC's contacts have recently confirmed with the pastor's family that the preferred English spelling of their surname is "Naizgi."

DANIEL 6

但以理书 6

8 Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing, that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.

9 Wherefore king Darius signed the writing and the decree.

10 Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.

8 王阿,现在求你立这禁令,加盖玉玺,使禁令决不更改,照玛代和波斯人的例,是不可更改的。

9 于是大利乌王立这禁令,加盖玉玺。

10 但以理知道这禁令盖了玉玺,就到自己家里,(他楼上的窗户,开向耶路撒冷)一日三次,双膝跪在他上帝面前,祷告感谢,与素常一样。



KNOWING AND KNEELING

知道与下跪



Let me give you the scenario here, the writing of the King had come into effect, you couldn't pray for thirty days and if you do, you will put in a den of lions and not just any den of lions, these are the Kings lions.

让我给你们一个场景,国王的诏书生效了,你不能在30天内祈祷,如果你祈祷了,你就会在狮子洞里,不是随便的狮子洞,这些是国王的狮子。



Surely Daniel could have stopped praying in his house, it's only thirty days after all. He could have prayed quietly in his heart, surely, he didn't have to make a big deal out of this.

但以理当然可以停止在他家里祈祷,毕竟只有三十天。他本可以在心里安静地祈祷,当然,他不必为此大惊小怪。



But No, Daniel's reaction in knowing what was going to happen was to kneel before God. What he knew didn't stop him from kneeling before God in prayer, indeed it made him more passionate in prayer.

但是不,但以理知道将要发生的事情后,他的反应是跪在上帝面前。他所知道的一切并没有阻止他跪在上帝面前祈祷,反而使他在祈祷中更加热情。

I wonder what yours and my reaction would have been, probably it wouldn't have been the reaction of Daniel. He knew the consequences, but like Peter and John in Acts 4, he and they had to obey God rather than man.

我想知道你我的反应会是什么,可能不会是但以理的反应。他知道后果,但就像使徒行传第4章中的彼得和约翰,他和他们必须服从上帝而不是人。

Would it make any difference to your prayer life believer if they were a command from your government to stop all prayer?

如果你的政府命令你停止所有的祷告,你的祷告生活信徒会有什么不同吗?

What if they said you had to stop going to go to church on Sunday or if you were stopped from sharing the gospel?

如果他们说你必须停止在星期天去教堂,或者如果你被阻止分享福音,你会怎样?

Would it make any difference?

这有什么区别呢?

It wouldn't in millions of Christians lives because they don't pray, don't go to church or share the gospel?

它不会影响数百万基督徒的生活,因为他们不祈祷,不去教堂,不分享福音?
If you knew what Daniel knew, what would you do?

It's not how much we know, it's how much we kneel that matters.

如果你知道但以理知道的事,你会怎么做?

重要的不是我们知道多少,而是我们跪了多少。

God bless you

上帝祝福你

DEUT 2

申命记2章

7 For the Lord thy God hath blessed thee in all the works of thy hand: he knoweth thy walking through this great wilderness: these forty years the Lord thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.

因为耶和华-你的 神在你手里所办的一切事上已赐福与你。你走这大旷野,他都知道了。这四十年,耶和华-你的 神常与你同在,故此你一无所缺。



WALKING THROUGH THE WILDERNESS



To journey from Egypt to the Promised Land takes less than a year, but for the children of Israel it took more than 40 years as a result of their disobedience. In the book of Deuteronomy, Moses is careful to remind them of the high price of their disobedience and to call them to remember the commandments and statues of the Lord as they go in to possess the land of Canaan. The lesson for us is clear: Disobedience is expensive, and most of us cannot afford to pay its price. As some of us have had to walk through our own personal wilderness, we can testify that God was with us the whole time. And it is through our “wilderness experiences” that we learn about the need to remain steadfast in our faith and conduct as believers.

从埃及到应许之地只需要不到一年的时间,但是对于以色列人来说,因为他们的悖逆,他们花了40多年的时间。在《申命记》中,摩西小心翼翼地提醒他们,他们的悖逆将付出高昂的代价,并号召他们在进入迦南地得为业时记住上帝的诫命和神像。这给我们的教训很清楚:不服从是代价高昂的,而我们大多数人无法承担它的代价。就像我们中的一些人不得不走过自己的荒野一样,我们可以证明上帝一直与我们同在。正是通过我们的“荒野经历”,我们了解到作为信徒,需要坚定地持守我们的信仰和行为。



Although God punished Israel by causing them to go through the wilderness for 40 years, He also performed many great miracles among them during their journey. And just like God led Israel through the wilderness, He is there to lead us as well. Going through the wilderness is not abandonment by God, it is His way of training our hearts to be true to Him, so that we can be fit to inherit the blessing He has in store for us. It can also be a time of great communion in which you draw nearer to God than ever before.

虽然神罚以色列人在旷野行走四十年,但在他们行路的路上,又在他们中间行了许多大神迹。就像神带领以色列人走过旷野一样,他也会在那里引导我们。在旷野中行走并不是神的弃绝,这是他训练我们的心忠实于他的方式,这样我们就能承受他为我们所预备的福气。它也可以是一个伟大的交流的时间,你比以往任何时候都更接近上帝。



Finally, our wilderness experience can be a time of God's greatest provision. The children of Israel lacked nothing; God provided for nearly 2 million people every day. And He will provide for you.

最后,我们在旷野的经历可以成为神最大的供应。以色列人一无所缺。神每天供应将近200万人。他会供养你的。

Please study Hebrews 12 and Psalm 78

请研读希伯来书12章和诗篇78章

God bless you

上帝祝福你

1 TIMOTHY 6
提莫太前书 6
 
 20 O Timothy, guard the deposit entrusted to you. Avoid the irreverent babble and contradictions of what is falsely called “knowledge,” 21 for by professing it some have swerved from the faith.
20 提摩太阿,你要保守所托付你的,躲避世俗的虚谈,和那敌真道似是而非的学问。21 已经有人自称有这学问、就偏离了真道。愿恩惠常与你们同在。
 
GUARDING THE DEPOSIT
保管存款
 
When I was young, I went to buy bottles of pop from our newspaper shop, i received something back if I kept them unbroken, so My mother and Father made sure I was careful with these bottles, but being me, I sometimes broke them.
当我小的时候,我去我们的报纸店买瓶装汽水,如果我保持瓶子完好无损,我就会得到一些回报,所以我的父母要确保我小心使用这些瓶子,但由于我的缘故,有时我会打破它们。
 
Timothy is Paul's protégé, he is the one earmarked by Paul to take over as leader of the churches. He has been trained by Paul, he has had time and effort invested into Him.
提摩太是保罗的门徒,他是保罗指定接任教会领袖的人。他受过保罗的训练,他在他身上投入了时间和精力。
 
Paul has deposited the knowledge of the truth of Jesus Christ into his heart, throughout these two letters of 1 &2 Timothy, he pleads with his protégé to keep strong and to keep the true gospel safe. 
保罗已经把耶稣基督的真理知识存于他的心里,通过提摩太前书和后书的这两封信,他恳求门徒信徒要坚固,保守真福音的平安。
 
Paul knows more than most that there were many false teachers who were trying to steal the gospel.
保罗比大多数人都知道,有许多假师傅想要窃取福音。
 
The words of Paul echo down to us, each generation has been entrusted with the gospel and NOW it is their responsibility to deposit it with the next.
保罗的话在我们心中回响,每一代人都被托付福音,现在他们有责任将福音传给下一代。
 
Let me ask you this:
让我这样问你:
 
How much depositing of the gospel have you done to the next generation?
你们为下一代存了多少福音?
 
Now I am a bit older, it is my responsibility to deposit the true gospel unto the next generation of Timothy's.
现在我长大了一点,把真福音传给提摩太的下一代是我的责任。
 
Many of us need to have a legacy and that legacy should be the one Paul has, one of not just sharing the gospel, with his current generation, but passing it on to the future generations.
我们很多人都需要留下遗产,而这个遗产应该是保罗所拥有的,不仅仅是与他这一代人分享福音,而是将它传递给后代。
 
Older Christian, are you mentoring a younger Christian?
年长的基督徒,你在指导年轻的基督徒吗?
 
I have a dear friend in China, who I taught English too, when I first came to China. I have been able to pass on books, sermons etc to encourage not just him but others. There are older Christians reading this, who may have books at home that are just lying there, if they are good, get them into the hands of a young Christian’s.
我在中国有一个好朋友,当我第一次来中国时,我也教过他英语。我可以通过书籍、布道等方式鼓励他和其他人。有些年长的基督徒正在读这篇文章,他们家里可能有书就放在那里,如果是好书,就把它们交到年轻的基督徒手中。
 
Also, to the Timothy's, guard the gospel you have been given with your life. It is the very power of God unto salvation unto all who believe, it has been deposited in your life, now it's time to pass the deposit on.
提摩太家的人,你们也要用生命保守所赐给你们的福音。拯救所有相信的人,这是神的大能,它已经存于你的生命中,现在是时候把这存下去了。
 
Don't break or lose the deposit, like I did when I broke the bottles (that only happened once or twice), but my father wasn't half mad.
不要打破或丢失存款,就像我打破瓶子时做的那样(只发生过一两次),但我父亲却没有生半点气。
 
If you do break or lose the deposit, it will be God himself that you will answer to, so guard WITH YOUR LIFE.
如果你真的破坏或丢失了存款,你要对上帝负责,所以用你的生命来守护。
 
Are you guarding your deposit or have you lost it?
你是保管着你的存款还是把它弄丢了?
 
God bless you
上帝祝福你

有说:“我是属保罗的”;有说:“我是属亚波罗的。”这岂不是你们和世人一样吗?亚波罗算什么?保罗算什么?无非是执事,照主所赐给他们各人的,引导你们相信。我栽种了,亚波罗浇灌了,惟有 神叫他生长。可见栽种的,算不得什么,浇灌的,也算不得什么;只在那叫他生长的 神。
8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.
9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.
10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.
栽种的和浇灌的,都是一样,但将来各人要照自己的工夫得自己的赏赐。因为我们是与 神同工的;你们是 神所耕种的田地,所建造的房屋。我照 神所给我的恩,好像一个聪明的工头,立好了根基,有别人在上面建造;只是各人要谨慎怎样在上面建造。
 
I really want us to concentrate on verse 9. [size=27]。[/size]
 [size=27]我非常想我们一起来留意一下第9[/size]
We are workers together with God 
 [size=27]我们是与上帝一起作工的工人![/size]
You know there are many gifts among the body of Christ. My brothers and sisters, we are not in competition with each other, we are workers together with God and with each other. 
你知道在基督的身体里有许多恩赐。我的兄弟姐妹们,我们不是彼此竞争,我们是与神和彼此同工。
I am blessed to write and share and to be in ministry, as are many others, that doesn't mean I am in competition with other people who are writers and indeed write fifty times better than myself. 
 
我被神祝福 能写作、分享和参与事工,就像其他很多人一样,这并不意味着我要和其他作家竞争,他们确实写得比我好50倍。
A dear sister writes beautiful poetry, that is her gifting from God. I can't write poetry, am I jealous?.. No. Do I thank God for her ministry?....Yes. [size=27]一[/size]
亲爱的姐妹能写出优美的诗歌,这是上帝给她的恩赐。我不会写诗,我嫉妒吗?不。我为她的事奉感谢神吗?....是的。一
 
Maybe you think you can do something someone else is doing.. but are you prepared to pay the price.. to go through the difficulties that person may have encountered. The Lord does not give out gifts until that person is ready to handle it.
也许你认为你可以做别人正在做的事情。但是你准备好付出代价了吗?经历某人可能遇到的困难。上帝不会随便给你恩赐,除非你准备好了。
I always remember when the Lord started me writing.. I had never written before and I put emoticons at the bottom of the messages .. but the Lord has helped me and taught me.
我一直记得上帝呼召我写作的那个时候。我以前从来没有写过东西,所以我把表情符号放在消息的底部。但耶和华帮助我,启示我。
We are to thank God for the different offices and gifts that people hold. Let us remember it is the Holy Spirit who gives out the gifts and ministries and every one he gives out is to the person who can uniquely do that role within the body of Christ.
我们要感谢神赐给我们不同的职位和恩赐。让我们记住,是圣灵赐下恩赐和事工,祂所赐给的每一个人,都是赐给在基督的肢体内,唯一能担当这个角色的人。
 
Please read and study 1 Corinthians Chapter 12.
[size=27]请阅读学习哥林多前书12章[/size]
 
You have your own unique role in the Body of Christ, one that has been chosen for you by the Father and given to you through the operation of his Spirit, who also gives you the power to operate in it. 
 你在基督的身体里有自己独特的角色,这是天父为你选择的,并通过他的圣灵的运作赐给你,他也给你能力去知道如何运用
Be very careful believer, not to be unhappy with the spiritual gift you have been given, that would be to grieve the Holy Spirit and to tell Him, that he doesn't know what he is doing, when he clearly does. 
 信徒要非常小心,不要对你所得到的属灵恩赐感到不高兴,那将使圣灵伤心,告诉他,他不知道他在做什么,当他明明知道的时候。
For those of you, who do not know what their gift is, then seek God's face on the matter, he will reveal what He has in store for you and he will give you the strength to operate in that gift. [size=27]。[/size]
 对于那些不知道自己的恩赐是什么的人,在这个问题上寻求上帝的面,他会告诉你他为你准备了什么,他会给你力量去运用他的恩赐。。
When the Lord is looking for people to use, he does not look at what denomination you are in, what size church you are in or what the size of your bank balance is.. he looks for a willingness to serve Him and to also serve the Body of Christ.
当主寻找要使用的人时,他不会看你是什么教派,你的教会有多大,或你的银行存款有多少。他寻求愿意服事神,也服事基督的
 
Let me finish with a question.
 [size=27]然后我们结束这个问题[/size]
If the Lord said your gifting was washing up and serving tea every week after church, would you accept that or would you complain? Be very careful not to complain, the Israelites got nowhere and died in the desert because of their complaining and critical spirit. see Numbers 14
如果主说你的恩赐是每周做完礼拜后洗碗和倒茶,你会接受还是会抱怨?你们要小心,不要抱怨,以色列人因为他们的抱怨和挑剔的精神而无处可去,死在旷野。见民数记14
 
God Bless you all

REVELATION 3
启示录 3
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
20看哪,我站在门外叩门,若有听见我声音就开门的,我要进到他那里去,我与他,他与我一同坐席。
 
ANSWER THE DOOR!!!!
回应(主的)敲门
This is probably the most misused verse in the Bible, when I came to faith back in 1975, this was the verse that I remember from the book Journey into life. But it is not aimed at unbelievers, it comes right at the end off the letters to the seven churches and indeed right at the end of the last one to the Laodicean church, which has some of the strongest rebukes in the Bible.
这可能是《圣经》中被误用最多的一节,当我在1975年开始信时,这是我记得的《生命之旅》一书中的一节。但它并不是针对不信教的人,它出现在给七个教会的信的末尾,实际上也出现在最后一封给老底嘉教会的信的末尾,老底嘉教会在圣经中得到了一些最强烈的谴责。
You remember that Jesus has become so upset with this Church and its compromise that he has threatened to spew them out of his mouth, that means what they are makes him physically sick. This Church was not one thing or the other, they wanted to serve Christ and still wanted to live in the world.
你还记得,对于该教会 及其妥协的态度,耶稣非常不满,他威胁要把从嘴里吐出来,这意味着这个教会让他身体感到不适。这个教会不是这样或那样,他们想侍奉基督,仍然想生活在这个世界上。
But there is hope, this is one of the greatest invitations in the Bible. Let's look at it for a minute.
盼望是有的,这是圣经中最伟大的邀请之一。让我们看一分钟。
It is Jesus who is knocking, Behold I stand, if you go and read in Song of Solomon chapter 5:2, Solomon is seeking for his bride. This is a wonderful picture of what Jesus is doing today, he is earnestly seeking his bride, the Church. He is standing at the door of the Church and knocking to get in.  Is he standing at your Church and knocking to get in?
是耶稣在敲门,看哪,我站着,如果你去读所罗门之歌第五章第二节,所罗门正在寻找他的新娘。这是耶稣今天所做的一幅奇妙的图画,他恳切地寻找他的新娘-就是教会。他站在教堂门口,敲门要进去。他有没有 站在你的教堂门口敲门要进去呢?
 
Although these letters were addressed to the Leaders of the seven Churches, this invitation is to everyone in the Church. note the words, if any one hear my voice and open the door. This whole invitation is a personal invite for every Christian as well as for the whole Church.  The Lord stands at the door of each believers heart and he is constantly knocking, but the door handle is on the inside, it's up to you Believer’s to open the door.
虽然这些信是写给七个教会的领袖的,但这份邀请是写给教会的每一个人的。记住这些话,如果有人听到我的声音就开门。整个邀请是对每一个 基督徒 个人邀请,也是对整个教会的邀请。主耶稣站在每个信徒的门口,他不断地敲门,但门把手是在里面的,要靠信徒自己去开门。
 
Well what happens when you open the door, it's the most glorious thing ever, Jesus comes and has intimate communion with us, there are two amazing promises here, one is that Jesus will come in, when you open the door, he will be there. Sometimes you open the door after someone has been knocking and they have disappeared, not Jesus. Secondly, he will have fellowship with us and get this.. us with him. The most intimate thing that we have is a meal and that is why Jesus is knocking, he wants intimate and deep fellowship.
当你打开门的时候发生了什么,这是最荣耀的事情,耶稣来了,和我们有亲密的交流,这里有两个惊人的承诺,第一 是耶稣会进来,当你打开门的时候,他会在那里(不会走)生活中有时 你听到有人敲门,你打开门时 他们已经不见了,耶稣不会这样。其次,他会与我们相交并得到这个。我们和他在一起。我们拥有的最亲密的东西是一个宴席,这就是为什么耶稣敲门,他想要亲密和深入的交通。
It's time for some Churches to open the door to Jesus, because the door to him, is closed. Are you going to brave enough to open it?
所以教会来说,现在是为耶稣敞开大门的时候,因为通往他的大门已经关闭。你有足够的勇气打开它吗?
 
As an individual believer are you going to open the door of your own life to Jesus?
作为一个信徒,你会打开你自己生命的门来迎接耶稣吗?
 
How long are you going to leave him at your door knocking?
你打算让他敲你的门多久
 
It's time to answer the door!!!
是时候打开门了
 
God Bless You,
愿上帝祝福你

SMALL THINGS
小事物
 
“For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the Lord, which run to and fro through the whole earth…Zechariah 4:10.”
“谁藐视这日的事为小呢?这七眼乃是耶和华的眼睛,遍察全地。见所罗巴伯手拿线铊就欢喜……撒加利亚书 [size=24]4:10[/size]
 
Big things usually start small and the temple was to be rebuilt by Ezra and Zechariah. Jesus said that if you have faith, the size of a mustard seed, which is the smallest seed, it would move mountains.
大事通常从小事开始,圣殿是由以斯拉和撒迦利亚重建的。耶稣说,如果你有一颗芥菜种子那么大的信心,即便是最小的种子,它却可以移山。
 
You don't have to have a large ministry to have an impact; it is not the size of the ministry or of the church that counts. Your church can have 20 members and can greatly influence its community.   Because, if those members are filled with God's power and a church of 300 is largely dead or lifeless, which one does God bless and use?
你不需要有一个很大的部门来产生影响;重要的不是牧区的规模或教会的规模。你的教会可以有20个成员,可以对社区产生巨大的影响。因为,如果这些成员都充满了上帝的力量,而一个300人的教会基本上已经死亡或没有生命,上帝会保佑和使用哪一个呢?
 
Look back in the chapter to verse 6, the Lord says the work, any work for Him, is not by man's might but by his Spirit.   He will bless the work. I worry about numbers, believe me, I am a numbers person, but God will bless the work however small it is.
回顾第6节,主说他的作工,一切作工,不是靠人的能力,而是靠他的灵。他将祝福这项作工。我担心数字,相信我,我是一个数字人,但上帝会保佑这作工,无论它是多么小。
 
Do not worry that your work is small.   Do not despise it.   You are working in your area of the vineyard and you are doing all you can.   Watch God bless you, although you may be few and weak.
不要担心你的作工很小。不可轻看它。你在你的葡萄园里作工,尽你所能。尽管你可能又小又弱,上帝会保佑你的。
 
God bless you, 
上帝祝福你,
Keith

[size=15][size=19][size=27]1 CORINTHIANS 1 哥林多前书  第1章


 



2 To the church of God that is in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints together with all those who in every place call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both their Lord and ours:
2 写信给在哥林多  神的教会,就是在基督耶稣里成圣、蒙召作圣徒的,以及所有在各处求告我主耶稣基督之名的人。基督是他们的主,也是我们的主。



CALLED TO BE SAINTS
蒙召为圣徒



What a way to start a letter.
多么好的方式开始这一封信。



First of all, we are sanctified in Christ Jesus, in the Greek it is used as a noun and means Holy People, we are as Peter says later in his epistle in chapter 2:
首先,我们在基督耶稣里成圣,在希腊语中它被用作名词,意思是圣民,正如彼得在他的书信第 2 章后面所说的那样:



9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.
9 但你们是蒙拣选的族类,是君尊的祭司,是圣洁的国民,是属于祂的子民,为要宣扬那召你们出黑暗入奇妙光明者的美德。





Why are we a holy people, because we are called to be saints, or to be holy. Corinth was one of the worst places to be a Christian, it was full of sin and idols and temples to false Gods and yet here were a people who were holy to the Lord, who were to live lives that were worthy of their high calling.
为什么我们是圣洁的子民,因为我们蒙召成为圣徒,成为圣洁的。 哥林多是最不适合基督徒的地方之一,它充满了罪恶、偶像和假神的圣殿,然而这里有一群归主为圣的人,他们要过一种配得上他们崇高呼召的生活。



Look at the phrase Peter uses in the verse above, to proclaim the excellencies of Him, don't you just love that, why have we been saved?
看看彼得在上面的经文中使用的短语,宣扬他的美德。如果你不喜欢这样,那么我们又是为什么得救的?



We are a church set apart by God, a chosen people and a royal priesthood, why so that we who are called to be saints can show forth the glorious excellencies of the one who called us.
我们是神所分别出来的教会,是选民和君尊的祭司,所以我们这些蒙召成为圣徒的人,可以彰显呼召我们的那位荣耀的美德。



Let's do that every day and show the world that Jesus lives.. in us
让我们每天都这样做,向世界展示耶稣住在我们里面……



For his glory and honour
为了他的荣耀和尊贵



Amen
阿门



God Bless You,
上帝祝福你,

[size=27]THE PLUMBLINE TEST


准绳测试

 

“Thus, he shewed me: and, behold, the Lord stood upon a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in his hand.   And the Lord said unto me, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A plumbline. Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of my people Israel: I will not again pass by them any more…Amos 7:7-8.”

“他又指示我一件事,有一道墙是按准绳建筑的,主手拿准绳站在其上。耶和华对我说,阿摩司阿,你看见甚么?我说,看见准绳。主说,我要吊起准绳在我民以色列中,我必不再宽恕他们……阿莫斯书 [size=27]7:7-8[/size]

 

God is the perfect standard for all things.  He is love, He is mercy, He is grace. He isn't just loving or merciful or gracious. A plumbline is a measurement of how straight something like a wall is, and God has a plumbline and it comes in two ways.   Firstly, God's perfect plumbline is Jesus.   He is the perfect one, you think you are someone, you think you are good, but when you measure yourself against Jesus, your life looks like a broken-down wall.   Your righteousness is all dirty rags.

上帝是万物的完美标准。他是爱,他是怜悯,他是恩典。他不仅仅是有爱心,仁慈,高尚。准绳是用来测量像墙这样的东西有多直,上帝有一条准绳,它有两种方式。首先,上帝完美的准绳是耶稣。他是完美的,你认为你是一个人,你认为你很好,但当你拿自己和耶稣相比时,你的生活看起来就像一堵倒塌的墙。你的正义都是肮脏的破布。

 

Every time we consider and look at Jesus, our actions are judged by his plumbline of complete truth. Let me give you an example.   Do you get angry?   I know I do.   Jesus got angry at the moneylenders in the temple.   Now to do that wasn't wrong. What about us, when we get angry?  We need to be angry about what God is angry about; anything else fails the plumbline test.

每当我们考虑和注视耶稣的时候,我们的行为都是由他那完全真理的铅垂线来判断的。让我给你举个例子,你会生气吗?我知道我有。耶稣对会堂里放债的人发怒。这样做并没有错。那我们呢,当我们生气的时候?我们需要对上帝生气的事生气;其他的都不能通过准绳测试。

 

The second plumbline is the word of God.   Hebrews 4 12 says, For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making it active, operative, energizing, and effective]; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the [g]breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart.

第二条准绳是上帝的话。希伯来书412节说:“因为上帝所说的道是活的,充满能力[使他是活泼的,有效的,有活力的,有效的];它比任何双刃剑都要锋利,刺入生命气息(灵魂)与不朽精神、关节与骨髓(我们天性最深处)的分界线,揭露、筛选、分析和判断内心的思想和目的”。

 

Everything we do is to be aligned to the Word of God.  The word of God cuts everything down to the bone; it searches out the hidden things, we try to hide. Have you ever done something and thought well no one has seen that, but then you read in your daily bible reading something and the Holy Spirit has taken it and convicted you?  That is God's plumbline.   You have come below God's perfect plumbline.  

我们所做的每一件事都要与上帝的道保持一致。上帝的话能剪除万物,直到骨头;它寻找隐藏的东西,我们试图隐藏。你有没有做过一件事,以为没人看见过,但你在每天读圣经的时候读到一些东西,圣灵就取走了它,给你定罪?那是上帝的准绳。你已经在上帝完美的准绳之下了。

 

God has a plumbline, and our lives are judged by that plumbline.   How level is your life in light of the plumblines of the Living Word and Written Word?

上帝有一条准绳,我们的生活就由这条准绳来判断。根据生活世界和文字世界的准绳,你的生活水平如何?

 

God bless you, 

上帝祝福你,

Keith

1 SAMUEL 2
撒母耳记上 第二章


22 Now Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons did unto all Israel; and how they lay with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
22 以利年甚老迈,听见他两个儿子待以色列众人的事,又听见他们与会幕门前伺候的妇人苟合, 

23 And he said unto them, Why do ye such things? for I hear of your evil dealings by all this people.
23他就对他们说:「你们为何行这样的事呢?我从这众百姓听见你们的恶行。 

24 Nay, my sons; for it is no good report that I hear: ye make the Lord's people to transgress.
24我儿啊,不可这样!我听见你们的风声不好,你们使耶和华的百姓犯了罪。

 

A SLAP ON THE WRIST
轻微的惩罚

Eli was the High priest, his sons were priests also, but they where a disgrace to their calling. Not only were they thieves, but they were fornicators.
以利是大祭司,他的儿子们也是祭司,但他们的呼召是一种耻辱。 他们不仅是小偷,还是通奸者。

These women came to worship God, but these two evil men used and abused their power.
这些女人是来敬拜神的,但这两个恶人却滥用他们的权势。

The Lord eventually dealt with them and rightly so, but why did it have to come to that?
主最终对付了他们,这是正确的,但为什么非要这样呢?

I have heard it enough times, some Christian is living in sin and I hear this:
我已经听过很多次了。有些基督徒生活在罪中,然后我听到这样的话:

You can't judge him/her
你不能论断他/她

You should look at your own life first.
你应该先看看你自己的生活。

You should show them love
你应该向他们表达你的爱

They have been members of the church a long time, we can't drive them away.
他们已经是教会的成员很久了,我们不能把他们赶走。

Eli knew that what they were doing was sinful, he was the stereotypical bad parent or even pastor, whatever their child or church member do, they tolerate, they don't want to rock the boat, they can't correct their children/church members, that is too harsh by far.
以利知道这些人这样做是有罪的,这些人是刻板的坏父母甚至是牧师,无论他们的孩子或教会成员做什么,他们都会容忍,他们不想搅局,他们无法纠正他们的孩子/教会 成员们,“这太苛刻了”。

Now I realise that God hardened their hearts, because of their indifference, but Eli was at fault here, he should have dealt firmly, in banning these evil men from the priest's office, the things they were doing, were worthy of severe punishment or even death.
现在我意识到上帝正因为他们的冷漠而使他们的心刚硬。以利在这里有错,他应该坚决对待,禁止这些邪恶的人任祭司的职位,他们所做的事情,应该受到严厉的惩罚甚至是 死亡。

Virtually the same scenario happened in Numbers 25, what happened these two were pierced through by Phinehas. So why didn't this happen with these two evil men?
几乎相同的场景在民数记25章也发生过,那两个人被非尼哈刺穿的事情。 那么,为什么对以利的儿子没有降下这样的惩罚呢?

I hear this all the time, something happens in a church, some Christian is in sexual sin and after multiple rebukes refuses to change his/her behaviour. We need to deal with sin in the house of God, not wait and say, let's wait and pray and let God handle it. He has given us pastors and deacons with authority to deal with this, but how often do they act like Eli and give a slap on the wrist, when they need to deal with the sin like Phinehas did and kill it, that is to disallow fellowship to that person.
我一直听到这类事情在教会里发生,一些基督徒在性犯罪中跌倒,甚至在受到多次指责之后也拒绝改变。 我们需要在神的殿中对付罪,而不是等着说,让我们等着祷告,让神来处理。 他给了我们牧师和执事处理这个问题的权力,但是当他们需要像非尼哈那样处理并杀死罪恶时,他们有多少次像以利那样行事,只是打了一下手腕,那就是不允许那个人参加团契。

Time to clean house Church, judgement begins at the house of God.
是时候打扫教会了,审判从神的家开始。

God wants a pure church.
神要的是一个纯洁的教会。

God bless you
上帝祝福你

1 TIMOTHY 1

提摩太前书一章

 

18 This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightiest war a good warfare;

19 Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck

18我儿提摩太啊,我照从前指着你的预言,将这命令交托你,叫你因此可以打那美好的仗。

19常存信心和无亏的良心。有人丢弃良心,就在真道上如同船破坏了一般。

 

HOLDING ONTO YOUR FAITH

要坚守信念

 

 

Hey Christian, YOU are in a WAR!!

嘿基督徒,你是在打仗!!

 

 

Timothy had to do certain things and we must do these things also.

提摩太要做的事,我们也要做。

 

We need to war a good warfare, we need to realise that our enemy, although he is defeated, is still dangerous.

我们需要打一场美好的仗,我们需要意识到敌人虽然已经打败了,但仍然很危险。

 

To wage a good warfare, we have to hold onto our faith tightly. In one verse it says that we have to "cling tightly" to it.  We can do this because God first clings tightly to us! 

要打一场美好的仗,我们必须紧紧抓住我们的信仰。 这一节经文说,我们必须“紧紧抓住”。 我们能做到这一点,是因为上帝先紧紧抓住了我们!

 

Also, we need to have a clear conscience. That is to have short accounts with God, to confess our sins to Him, knowing that we will receive forgiveness.

另外,我们要问心无愧。 那就是与上帝有交代,向他承认我们的罪,知道我们会得到宽恕。

 

Some Christians or some so-called Christians, have not done these things.

有一些基督徒或一些所谓的基督徒,并没有这么做。 

 

Look at what has happened to them. Their lives are a wreck!

看看他们发生了什么。 他们的生活一塌糊涂像一场灾难!

 

I hope your life is not a shipwreck。

我希望你的生活不是海难现场。

[size=27]JOB 17


约伯记 17


9 “Nevertheless the righteous will hold to his ways,
And he who has clean hands will grow stronger and stronger.


9 “然而,义人要持守所行的道;

手洁的人要力上加力。

 

HOLD ON TO CLEAN HANDS

要洁净双手

 

Job is one of my favourite characters in the Bible. He went through so much! Allied to that he had a difficult wife. It seems that she went the course with him as he had more children at the end!

约伯是我最喜欢的圣经人物之一。 他经历了太多。还有,他有一个难相处的妻子。看来最后她和他一起上了课,因为他最后有了更多的孩子!

 

He also had the three friends. These guys were ok... until they started talking!!!.

他还有那三个朋友。 这些家伙看上去还好……直到他们开始说话!!!

 

Do you remember what Job's wife said to him at the end of chapter 2, "Curse God and die."

你还记得约伯的妻子在第 2 章末尾对他说的话吗,诅咒上帝而死。

 

Do you remember what happened to Job at the end of the book?, although he was told off by God, the final word was that Job hadn't sinned against God with his mouth.

还记得书末约伯的遭遇吗?虽然被神责备了,但最后的结论是约伯并没有用嘴得罪神。

 

David poses a wonderful question in Psalm 24:

大卫在诗篇 24 中提出了一个很好的问题:

 

Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place?
He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.



He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

3谁能登耶和华的山?

谁能站在他的圣所?

4就是手洁心清,不向虚妄,

起誓不怀诡诈的人。

5他必蒙耶和华赐福,

又蒙救他的 神使他成义。

 

Job was one who could stand in the holy place of the Lord?

约伯是能站在主圣所的人吗?

Why? Because he had all the attributes outlined in verse 4 above.

为什么? 因为他具有上面第 4 节中概述的所有属性。

If you have clean hands like Job had, you will grow stronger. Both Job and David were blessed by God, because their hearts were right with God.

如果你像约伯那样有一双干净的手,你就会变得更强壮。 约伯和大卫都蒙神祝福,因为他们的心与神同在。

 

How clean are your hearts and hands?

你的心和手有洁净呢?

 

God bless you,

上帝祝福你,

 

Keith

EXODUS 16:28
[size=27] 出埃及记16:28


And the Lord said to Moses, “How long do you refuse to keep My commandments and My laws?"
耶和华对摩西说:“你们不肯守我的诫命和律法,要到几时呢? 
  
God's Frustration
  神的沮丧
From our passage, God had just brought the Israelites through the Red Sea on dry land.  As the Israelites watched the dead bodies of the Egyptians wash up on the shore, they broke out in worship and praise of the hand of God on their behalf (Exodus 14-15).
这段中神刚刚带领以色列人在干燥之地穿越了红海。由于以色列人看到了被冲到海滩的埃及人的尸体,他们就在敬拜中爆发,赞美神的手为他们所做的(出埃及记14-15)
  
It was not long after they worshipped the Lord that they begin to complain against the Lord.  First, they complained about water.  So, God turned a lake that was bitter into water so that they might drink. Next, they complained about food.  Then God provided bread from heaven known as Manna, along with quail.  But God gave specific instructions regarding how the people of Israel were to receive this blessing.  Unfortunately, the people of Israel, like many of us today, disobeyed God in gathering the Manna which caused God a great deal of frustration, and prompted Him to ask the question we see in the above passage.
这在他们敬拜主并开始抱怨主之后并没有过去多久。他们先是抱怨水,然后神把苦涩的湖水变为饮用水使他们可以喝。接着他们又抱怨食物,神又从天堂为他们提供叫做玛娜的面包以及鹌鹑。但神对以色列人如何接受这一祝福给了特别的指示。不幸的是以色列人就像今天的许多人一样,在收集玛娜时违背神,使得神非常沮丧,促使神提出了我们看到的上面的问题。
 
Regrettably, we see a similar situation in the church today. God calls us to love Him with all our heart, with all our strength, with all our soul and with all our mind, and to love our neighbors as ourselves. Yet, we find that many Christians place worldly pursuits above the living God, and even more troubling, you have Christians that do not love their neighbor, because their neighbour may be different from themselves.  
遗憾的是,我们在今天教会看到了相似情况。神要我们尽心尽力尽性尽意爱他,并爱人如己。然而,我们发现许多基督徒把属世的追逐置于活神之上,更糟糕的是,你可以看到基督徒不爱他们的邻舍,因为他们的邻舍或许与他们不同。
While we are instructed as Christians to avoid marrying a non-believer, we should love them with the love of Christ, and pray for their salvation.
然而作为基督徒我们被教导要避免嫁给非信徒,我们应当以基督之爱来爱他们,并为他们的救恩祷告。
Another example of God being frustrated is a story regarding King Saul.  In I Kings 15, Saul was commanded by God to destroy the Amalekites. Saul failed to do so and it frustrated God.  As a result, God removed Saul from being King and replaced him with David.  Nothing frustrates God more than disobedience.  As His children, God does not ask us for much, but He does ask for our best.  We should give Him no less.  
 神沮丧的另一个例子是关于扫罗王。在列王纪上15章,神命令扫罗摧毁亚玛力人。扫罗没有这么做,导致神的沮丧。后果是神废除扫罗王位,以大卫代替他。没有什么比不顺服更使神沮丧的。作为他的子女,神对我们要求不多,但他确实要求我们尽力。我们不应少给他。


God bless you 
愿神祝福你

    3) We have to be surrendered to the Lord. We must have a close and deep relationship with Him. That means spending lots of time in prayer, reading and studying His Word, and being in fellowship with His people.
    [size=27]我们要顺服于主。我们必须和他保持亲密深层的关系。也就是说要在祷告上多花时间,阅读学习他的话,和他的子民同行。



    Many brothers and sisters all over the world are suffering terrible persecution and over the coming years, the western world, will start to see more and more persecution of the Church. We really need to be so close to the Father in fellowship, so that we can stand up to the coming persecution. Christian, you may say, that I am speaking idle words, but persecution is coming.
    来自世界各地的许多弟兄姊妹们正在经历可怕的迫害,在未来数年西方世界将会看到越来越多的对教会的迫害。我们的确需要与父有更亲近的关系,以便能在未来迫害中站立得住。也许你会说我在说无用的话,但基督徒们,迫害正在来临。


    4) We need to grow into the very likeness of Christ - Ephesians 5:1-2 and 1我们需要完全效仿基督不断成长-以弗所书5:1-2和1
    Peter 1:13-17
    彼得1:13-17

    Here are more things for you to consider:对你来说以下是更多需要考虑的:
    We need to have on the armour of God - Ephesians 6:10-17我们需要装备神的盔甲-以弗所书6:10-17
    We need to be filled with the Holy Spirit - Ephesians 5:18我们需要被圣灵充满-以弗所书5:18
    We need to have our minds renewed by the Word of God - Romans 12:1-2
    and Colossians 3:16我们需要用神的话更新我们的思想-罗马书12:1-2和歌罗西书3:16
    We need to be ready in season and out of season to share the gospel - 2 Timothy 4:2我们需要准备好在合适或不合适的时候分享福音-提摩太后书4:2

    Time is very short my brothers and sisters. Every day is one day nearer the glorious appearing of our wonderful Lord and Saviour. Let us not debate when Jesus is coming back, but let us rejoice that He IS coming back to take us to be with Him - John 14:1-6. We need to be about our Master's business.
    时间紧迫弟兄姊妹们。每天都是离我们伟大的主和救赎者再来的辉煌日子更近的一天。当耶稣再来时让我们不要争论,而是为他即将到来和我们在一起而欢喜-约翰福音14:1-6。我们要准备好主的工作。


    Matthew Henry Comments on the Apostles Question in Acts 1:


    “...They (the Apostles) were earnest in asking about that which their master, never had directed or encouraged them to seek."


    You know every single prophecy about the first coming of Jesus, was fulfilled, and likewise, every prophecy about His second coming in power and glory, will be fulfilled, also. Christian, your job is to look forward with joy to that glorious day and to spend your time in fruitful service, so that you will hear the words…”Well done thou good and faithful servant, enter into the joy of the Lord." If you disagree with me on what I have written, then please give feedback.
    你知道每个关于耶稣第一次来的预言,他们都已经实现了,同样,关于他在力量和荣耀中再来的每个预言也将会实现。基督徒你的工作就是带着喜乐对那荣耀的一天充满期待,把时间用在他果实的事工上...然后你可以听到如下话语...“做得好,你这良善忠诚的仆人,来进入神的喜乐吧”如果你不同意我所写的,请给予反馈。

    I owe everything to God. I am a blood-bought child of God who loves God, His Word, and His people. I have shared texts from the Holy Scriptures...the book I reverence and love. I long for that day, when my Saviour I will see. I hope you do too.
    我把一切归功于神。我是神用宝血买来的孩子,爱神,爱他的话和他的子民。我分享经文...那是我尊敬和所爱的。我期待那一天,我将看到我的救赎者何时来,我希望你也这么做。

    Mark Chapter 13
    Matthew chapter 24
    Matthew 25:13
    1 Thess 4:16-18
    1 Thess 5:1-4
    2 Peter 1:20-21
    2 Peter 2:1-4
    2 Peter 3:8-12
    Titus 2:13
    经文进深研究:
    马可福音13章
    马太福音24章

这些敬拜是独一无二的,他们是世上唯一(就我所知)以英文和英汉翻译所做的敬拜..这将有助于我的中国朋友们学习英文。


  


These devotions are a labour of love for me, they come from my own quiet times with the Lord, they are not manufactured and stolen from anyone else. I do use one commentary on occasion and that is Matthew henry. The English sermons at the end have been listened to, can't understand the chinese ones!. The nations and peoples have been prayed for. [b][size=16][size=24]I am not asking you to do, what I haven't done. These devotions come from my heart to yours, they are to reach the lost and to teach the saints. If you do not wish to receive them, please just let me know. They are strong meat and I pray that you would be blessed.[/size]
[/b][/size][/size]


[size=24] 这些敬拜对我而言是爱的劳动,他们来自于我和神独处的静谧时光,而不是从其他人处偷窃创造的。我有时会使用马修亨利的评论。不懂中文的您可以收听结尾处的英文布道,请为国家和人民祷告,我不会要求您做我未做的,这些敬拜是我对您的心意,他们也是为了迷失的人并教导信徒。如果您不想接收他们,请让我知道,他们需要慢慢消化,我祷告您会从中获益。

My Dearly beloved Friends,
[size=24]我亲爱的朋友们,

I have been led of the Lord to write on the most wonderful event, that is yet to happen in this world, and that is the wonderful second coming of Our Lord and Saviour, JESUS CHRIST. In writing this, I am not going to take a position on when the rapture will happen. I am someone who just believes that we will be raptured and am looking forward to that great event.
我被主引导记录这些精彩的事件,这些事尚未在世界上发生,是关于我们的主和救主耶稣基督再来的美好之事。写作之时,我并不确定这美好之事何时发生,但我是那些相信我们将在基督再来时与他在天堂相会并期待那美好之事的人。

Please feel free to share this message with everyone you can, the Word of God needs to get out into the world. The church needs to awaken, and I just hope that God through His Precious Holy Spirit, uses this message to encourage and bless my fellow believers in their most holy faith.
请在方便时把此信息分享给你认识的每个人,神的话需要走出去到世界每个地方。教会需要唤醒,我希望神通过他宝贵的圣灵,使用这些信息鼓励祝福和我一样怀有神圣信仰的信徒们。

All bible quotes are from the Amplified Bible.
所有圣经引用都来自于扩充版圣经。

"WE DO NOT KNOW THE DAY OR THE HOUR"
我们不知道那日子那时辰


Mark 13:32-37
马可福音 13:32-37
32 But of that day or that hour not a [single] person knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
但那日子、那时辰,没有人知道,连天上的使者也不知道,子也不知道,惟有父知道。 
33 Be on your guard [constantly alert], and watch and pray; for you do not know when the time will come.
你们要谨慎,警醒祈祷,因为你们不晓得那日期几时来到。 
34 It is like a man already] going on a journey; when he leaves home, he puts his servants in charge, each with his particular task, and he gives orders to the doorkeeper to be constantly alert and on the watch.
这事正如一个人离开本家,寄居外邦,把权柄交给仆人,分派各人当作的工,又吩咐看门的警醒。 
35 Therefore watch (give strict attention, be cautious and alert), for you do not know when the Master of the house is coming--in the evening, or at midnight, or at cockcrowing, or in the morning--
所以你们要警醒,因为你们不知道家主什么时候来,或晚上、或半夜、或鸡叫、或早晨。
36 [Watch, I say] lest He come suddenly and unexpectedly and find you asleep.
恐怕他忽然来到,看见你们睡着了。 
37 And what I say to you I say to everybody: Watch (give strict attention, be cautious, active, and alert)!
我对你们所说的话,也是对众人说:要警醒(密切注意,谨慎,积极并警醒)!

Acts 1:6-7
使徒行传 1:6-7
6 So when they were assembled, they asked Him, Lord, is this the time when you will re-establish the kingdom and restore it to Israel?
他们聚集的时候,问耶稣说:“主啊,你复兴以色列国就在这时候吗?” 
7 He said to them, It is not for you to become acquainted with and know what time brings [the things and events of time and their definite periods] or fixed years and seasons (their critical niche in time), which the Father has appointed (fixed and reserved) by His own choice and authority and personal power.
耶稣对他们说:“父凭着自己的权柄所定的时候、日期,不是你们可以知道的。



My Brothers and Sisters,

我的弟兄姊妹们,
In the church today, there is much debate, about the exact time Jesus will return. Indeed some people are even saying, that they know the day and hour of His coming. HAROLD CAMPING and others are WRONG...AGAIN!!!!!

今天的教会,关于耶稣到来的确切时间有更多争论。一些人甚至说,他们知道他到来的日子和时辰。哈罗德康平和其他人是都错了...又一次错了!!!!
Please note from the words of Jesus, that the time of his return, is entirely in the hands of the Father and no one else. If you hear people say, they know the date and time of the rapture, do not believe them. They are deceived, and they are attempting to deceive others. However, the Lord gives us clues regarding His return. If you read Mark 13 and Mathew 24, Jesus tells us that there will be signs that we should look for that may indicate His return is near. Two significant signs are: "Nation shall rise against nation and the gospel will be proclaimed to all people.” Jesus warns the disciples that many will say, “Look here is Christ.”  
请留意耶稣的话,他再来的时间完全因着父而不是其他人。如果你听到其他人说他们知道再来的日期和时间,不可相信他们。他们是骗人的,想要欺骗他人。然而主对于他再来的事给了我们一些暗示,如果你读马可福音13和马太福音24,耶稣告诉我们我们会看到一些迹象会表示他再来的时候近了。一个显著迹象是:“国家将起来对抗国家,福音将传到所有人。”耶稣告诫门徒们,许多人会说“看哪基督在这里”

He gives us these words of warning in Matthew 24:23-27
他在马太福音24:23-27中给出了以下警告
23 If anyone says to you then, Behold, here is the Christ (the Messiah)! or,
There He is!--do not believe it.
那时,若有人对你们说‘基督(弥赛亚)在这里’,或说‘基督在那里’,你们不要信。 

24 For false Christs and false prophets will arise, and they will show great signs and wonders so as to deceive and lead astray, if possible, even the elect (God's chosen ones).
因为假基督、假先知将要起来,显大神迹、大奇事以欺骗人使人入歧途。倘若能行,连选民也就迷惑了。 
25 See, I have warned you beforehand.
看哪,我预先告诉你们了。 
26 So if they say to you, Behold, He is in the wilderness (desert)--do not go out there; if they tell you, Behold, He is in the secret places or inner rooms--do not believe it.
若有人对你们说,‘看哪,基督在旷野里’,你们不要出去;若他们告诉你,‘看哪,基督在内屋中’,你们不要信。 
27 For just as the lightning flashes from the east and shines and [h]is seen as far as the west, so will the coming of the Son of Man be.  
闪电从东边发出,直照到西边。人子降临,也要这样。 

So how is Jesus going to return to Earth? We are told in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18
那么耶稣如何再来到地上呢?帖撒罗尼迦前书4:16-18告诉了我们
16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a loud cry of summons,
with the shout of an archangel, and with the blast of the trumpet of God.
And those who have departed this life in Christ will rise first.
因为主必亲自从天降临,有呼叫的声音和天使长的声音,又有神的号吹响,那在基督里死了的人必先复活。 
17 Then we, the living ones who remain [on the earth], shall simultaneously
be caught up along with [the resurrected dead] in the clouds to meet the
Lord in the air; and so always (through the eternity of the eternities) we
shall be with the Lord!
以后我们这活着还存留(在地上)的人必和他们一同被提到云里,在空中与主相遇。这样,我们就要和主永远同在!
18 Therefore comfort and encourage one another with these words.
所以,你们当用这些话彼此劝慰。 
We are also told that it will take the world by surprise. Jesus says that it will be the same as in the time of Noah.
我们还被告知这将会给世界一个惊喜。耶稣说这将和诺亚的时代相似。

Mathew 24:38-39
马太福音24:38 
38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking,
marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark;
当洪水以前的日子,人照常吃喝嫁娶,直到挪亚进方舟的那日, 
39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and
took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of
Man.  
不知不觉洪水来了,把他们全都冲去。人子降临也要这样。 

I Thess 5:1-4
帖撒罗尼迦前书 5:1 -4
1 But as to the suitable times and the precise seasons and dates, brethren,
you have no necessity for anything being written to you.
弟兄们,论到时候、日期,不用写信给你们, 
2 For you yourselves know perfectly well that the day of the [return of the]
Lord will come [as unexpectedly and suddenly] as a thief in the night.
因为你们自己明明晓得,主的日子来到(出乎意料,突然),好像夜间的贼一样。 
3 When people are saying, all is well and secure, and, there is peace and
safety, then in a moment unforeseen destruction (ruin and death) will come
upon them as suddenly as labour pains come upon a woman with child; and
they shall by no means escape, for there will be no escape.
人正说平安稳妥的时候,灾祸(毁灭和死亡)忽然临到他们,如同产难临到怀胎的妇人一样,他们绝不能逃脱。
4 But you are not in [given up to the power of] darkness, brethren, for that
day to overtake you by surprise like a thief.
弟兄们,你们却不在黑暗里(屈服于黑暗的力量),叫那日子临到你们像贼一样。 

So in light of all this, what is to be our attitude? How does the return of Jesus affect our daily lives? Here are some principles for you to consider:
鉴于以上所说,我们的态度应该是什么呢?耶稣再来如何反映到我们日常生活中呢?这里有一些原则供你参考:

1) Keep looking up.. Amen. I don't know about you, but I am always scanning the skies, eagerly looking for as Paul puts it...the glorious appearing of our Lord. I hope your eyes are turned upwards...looking for Jesus.
一直向上看..阿们。我不了解你,但我总是在观看天空,热切寻找保罗所说的...我们主荣耀的显现。我希望你的眼睛也转向天空...寻找耶稣。

Titus 2:13
提多书 2:13
13 Awaiting and looking for the [fulfilment, the realization of our] blessed hope, even the glorious appearing of our great God and Saviour Christ Jesus (the Messiah, the Anointed One)...
等候并寻找(实现并认识到)所盼望的福,并等候至大的神和我们救主耶稣基督(弥赛亚,受膏者)的荣耀显现。 

2) Continue living for Christ.
继续为基督而活
One of the greatest things we can do is share the gospel. Every day over 150,000 people die. The vast majority of them are going to die in their sins and go to hell. Many will have never heard the gospel of Jesus. Why? Because the church did not take the time to reach them. CT Studd said, “Some wish to live within the hearing of church or chapel bells. I want to run a rescue mission within a yard of hell." Time is short, people are sick and dying and you believer have the cure; if you saw someone dying and you had medicine to cure him/her, wouldn't you give it to them?"
我们能做的最重要的事就是分享福音。每天有超过15万人死去,他们中绝大多数人都死于他们的罪和地狱中,许多人从未听说过耶稣的福音。为什么?因为教会花没有时间传播他们。CT司徒德说,“一些人希望活在教会听证会或教堂的钟声里。我想在地狱之处施行救助的使命。”时间紧迫,人们在生病,在死去,你们信徒有治愈之策。如果你看到一些人在死去而你有药治疗他/她,你为何不给她呢?

Matthew 28:16-20 and Acts 1:8, tells us what we are to do, and it is not to debate and speculate on when He is coming back. To do this is to fall into a trap of the devil. He wants us to be side-tracked from our main task of sharing Christ, and will do whatever it takes to keep us from doing so.

马太福音28:16-20和使徒行传1:8告诉了我们要做什么,不是争论和猜测他何时会再来。做这些事会掉入魔鬼的陷阱。他要我们做分享福音这主要事情之外的事,不管做这些要花费什么都要去做的事。[/size]

KEITH NOTES FROM NANJING - Page 3 Empty Re: KEITH NOTES FROM NANJING

LUST
BY JERRY MILLER
情欲
Jerry Miller

The dictionary definition of lust is "1) intense or unrestrained sexual craving, or 2) an overwhelming desire or craving." The Bible speaks of lust in several ways. Exodus 20:14, 17 (NLT), "Do not commit adultery. . . Do not covet your neighbor’s house. Do not covet your neighbor’s wife, male or female servant, ox or donkey, or anything else your neighbor owns," or Matthew 5:28, "But I say, anyone who even looks at a woman with lust in his eye has already committed adultery with her in his heart."
英文词典对于情欲(Lust)一词的解释是:“1)强烈的或无法控制的性渴望;2)难以阻挡的需要或渴望”。圣经里也有一些对于情欲的描述。出埃及记20:14节、17节说:“不可奸淫……不可贪恋人的房屋;也不可贪恋人的妻子、仆婢、牛驴,并他一切所有的。”马太福音5:28说:“只是我告诉你们:凡看见妇女就动淫念的,这人心里已经与她犯奸淫了。”

Job 31:11-12 (NLT) sums up lust quite nicely: "For lust is a shameful sin, a crime that should be punished. It is a devastating fire that destroys to hell. It would wipe out everything I own."
约伯记31:11-12对这个词很好的总结:“因为这是大罪,是审判官当罚的罪孽。这本是火焚烧,直到毁灭,必拔除我所有的家产。”

Lust has as its focus pleasing oneself, and it often leads to unwholesome actions to fulfill one's desires with no regard to the consequences. Lust is about possession and greed. The Christian faith is about selflessness and is marked by holy living (Romans 6:19, 12:1-2; 1 Corinthians 1:2, 30, 6:19-20; Ephesians 1:4, 4:24; Colossians 3:12; 1 Thessalonians 4:3-8, 5:23; 2 Timothy 1:9; Hebrews 12:14; 1 Peter 1:15-16).
情欲是要去满足人肉体的需要,而这总是会导致不健康的、不计后果的行为。情欲是一种贪婪和占有欲。而基督徒的信仰在于否定自己,过圣洁的生活(罗马书6:19, 12:1-2; 哥林多前书 1:2, 30, 6:19-20; 以弗所书1:4, 4:24; 歌罗西书3:12; 帖撒罗尼迦前书4:3-8, 5:23; 提摩太后书1:9; 希伯来书12:14; 彼得前书1:15-16)

The goal of each person who has put his/her faith in Jesus Christ is to become more and more like Him each day. This means putting off the old way of life of which sin was in control, and conforming one's thoughts and actions to the standard put forth in Scripture. Lust is in opposition to this ideal.
每一个信仰耶稣基督的人,他的生活目标应当是每一天都变得更像主。这意味着脱离旧的、被罪掌权的生命,让自己的思想和行为照着圣经所教导的去改变。而情欲是与这完全相反的。

Nobody will ever be perfect or attain sinlessness while still on this earth, yet it is still a goal for which we strive.
虽然我们活在这个世上的人都不可能做到完美,或是完全的无罪,但是我们仍然应该接力追求无罪。

The Bible makes a very strong statement regarding this in 1 Thessalonians 4:7-8, "God has called us to be holy, not to live impure lives. Anyone who refuses to live by these rules is not disobeying human rules but is rejecting God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you."
对此,帖撒罗尼迦前书4:7-8郑重地告诉我们:“神召我们,本不是要我们沾染污秽,乃是要我们成为圣洁。所以,那弃绝的,不是弃绝人,乃是弃绝那赐圣灵给你们的 神。 ”

If lust has not yet gripped your heart and mind, ready yourself through a life lived above reproach to combat the temptations of lust.
如果你的思想还没有被情欲所左右,那就预备好自己与情欲的诱惑去征战,过无可指摘的生活。

If you currently struggle with lust, it is time to come clean before God and ask for His intervention in your life, so that holiness can be a mark of your life as well.
如果你正被情欲困扰,那就到神的面前洁净自己,请求神介入你的生活,把圣洁的标记印在你的生命里。





The door of the Word can only opened with the key of diligence!
(Charles Spurgeon)
只有勤恳的研读才是打开真理之门的钥匙
查尔斯 司布真

"Search the Scriptures!" John 5:39
“你们查考圣经!”约翰福音5:39

The Greek word here rendered "search" signifies a strict, close, diligent, thorough search--such as men make when they are seeking gold. We must not rest content with having given a superficial reading to a chapter or two, but with the candle of the Spirit, we must deliberately seek out the spiritual essence of the Word. Holy Scripture requires searching--much of it can only be learned by careful study. There is milk for babes, but also meat for strong men.
希腊语中“查考”这个词的意思,是指严格的、精确的、勤奋的、彻底的研究,就像人们寻找金子那样。我们不能满足于理解了一两章经文的字面意思,而是要让圣灵作为我们的明灯,用心寻找圣经话语中的属灵实质。圣经需要仔细查考,否则我们无法理解。这就像婴儿需要母乳才能存活,强壮的人要吃肉食才有力气。

No man who merely skims the book of God, can profit from it. We must dig and mine, until we obtain the hidden treasure. The door of the Word can only opened with the key of diligence! The Scriptures warrant searching. They are the writings of God--we dare to treat them with levity. He who despises them--despises the God who wrote them. God forbid that any of us should leave our Bibles to become swift witnesses against us in the great day of account. The Word of God will repay searching. Scripture grows upon the student. It is full of wonders!
如果只是匆匆浏览,我们不能够从圣经里找到益处。我们必须深度的挖掘,才能找到隐藏的宝藏。只有勤恳的研读才是打开真理之门的钥匙。圣经需要研读。上帝亲自书写的话语,我们怎能怠慢呢。藐视圣经,就是藐视上帝。上帝不允许我们离弃圣经,因为那会在审判的日子成为我们的罪证。仔细研读的人自会得到回报,圣经让我们的生命成长,里面充满了神奇。

The Scriptures reveal Jesus: "These very Scriptures speak about Me!" No more powerful motive can be urged upon Bible readers than this: He who finds Jesus finds life, Heaven, all things. Happy is he who, searching his Bible, discovers his Savior!
整本圣经都是在向我们揭示耶稣基督。谁能认识耶稣基督,谁就找到了生命、天国和一切的奥秘,这对于研读圣经的人来说,才是他们最大的动力。研读圣经,认识救主,这人就是有福的。

"My son, if you accept My words and store up My commands within you, turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding, and if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure--then you will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God." Proverbs 2:1-5
“我儿,你若领受我的言语,存记我的命令,侧耳听智能,专心求聪明,呼求明哲,扬声求聪明,寻找它,如寻找银子;搜求它,如搜求隐藏的珍宝,你就明白敬畏耶和华,得以认识 神。”箴言书2:1-5

CHARLES SPURGEON

Morning:
早晨
"Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee." — Psalms 55:22
你要把你的重担卸给耶和华,他必抚养你。-诗篇 55:22
Care, even though exercised upon legitimate objects, if carried to excess, has in it the nature of sin. The precept to avoid anxious care is earnestly inculcated by our Saviour, again and again; it is reiterated by the apostles; and it is one which cannot be neglected without involving transgression: for the very essence of anxious care is the imagining that we are wiser than God, and the thrusting ourselves into his place to do for him that which he has undertaken to do for us. We attempt to think of that which we fancy he will forget; we labour to take upon ourselves our weary burden, as if he were unable or unwilling to take it for us. Now this disobedience to his plain precept, this unbelief in his Word, this presumption in intruding upon his province, is all sinful. Yet more than this, anxious care often leads to acts of sin. He who cannot calmly leave his affairs in God's hand, but will carry his own burden, is very likely to be tempted to use wrong means to help himself. This sin leads to a forsaking of God as our counsellor, and resorting instead to human wisdom. This is going to the "broken cistern" instead of to the "fountain;" a sin which was laid against Israel of old. Anxiety makes us doubt God's lovingkindness, and thus our love to him grows cold; we feel mistrust, and thus grieve the Spirit of God, so that our prayers become hindered, our consistent example marred, and our life one of self-seeking. Thus want of confidence in God leads us to wander far from him; but if through simple faith in his promise, we cast each burden as it comes upon him, and are "careful for nothing" because he undertakes to care for us, it will keep us close to him, and strengthen us against much temptation. "Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on thee, because he trusteth in thee."
护理,即使是合理的事情,操练过度,也会陷入罪性。避免焦虑护理的原则是通过救主一次又一次热切地教导,不断重申使徒的话。这是不涉及侵犯的不可忽视的方式。焦虑护理其本质是想象我们比神更加智慧,把我们自己推入他的位置,为他做一切他为我们所做的事,我们试着想象我们想要他去忘记我们,我们辛苦劳作自己承担感到厌倦的重担责任,就像他不能或不愿为我们承担一样,如今不顺服于他朴实的训诫,也不信任他的话。这种设想侵犯了他的领域,都是有罪的。然而在此之外,焦虑护理通常导致有罪的行为,他不能平静地离开神的手掌控的事务,而是带着自身的压力,更有可能使用错误的方法进行自我帮助。这种罪导致不再以神作为我们的辅导者,转而求助于人的智慧。这就会走向“破裂的池子”,一种曾经攻击过古时以色列人的罪,而不是“活水”。焦虑使我们怀疑神的仁爱,因而使我们对他的爱逐渐冷却;我们感觉不信任,就会使神的灵悲伤,我们的祷告就会受到阻碍,我们所坚守的榜样就会被破坏,我们的生命就成为利己主义。因此,在神里面缺乏自信就导致我们在远离神的地方徘徊不前;但如果只是单纯信守对他的承诺,我们在神面前就会卸下负担,并且“无需小心翼翼”,因为他承诺照顾我们,他会和我们保持亲密,在更多诱惑面前坚固我们。“坚心倚赖你的,你必保守他十分平安,因为他倚靠你”。

使徒行传14:22的解释
Evening:
晚上
"Continue in the faith." — Acts 14:22
“恒守所信的道”-使徒行传14:22
Perseverance is the badge of true saints. The Christian life is not a beginning only in the ways of God, but also a continuance in the same as long as life lasts. It is with a Christian as it was with the great Napoleon: he said, "Conquest has made me what I am, and conquest must maintain me." So, under God, dear brother in the Lord, conquest has made you what you are, and conquest must sustain you. Your motto must be, "Excelsior." He only is a true conqueror, and shall be crowned at the last, who continueth till war's trumpet is blown no more. Perseverance is, therefore, the target of all our spiritual enemies. The world does not object to your being a Christian for a time, if she can but tempt you to cease your pilgrimage, and settle down to buy and sell with her in Vanity Fair. The flesh will seek to ensnare you, and to prevent your pressing on to glory. "It is weary work being a pilgrim; come, give it up. Am I always to be mortified? Am I never to be indulged? Give me at least a furlough from this constant warfare." Satan will make many a fierce attack on your perseverance; it will be the mark for all his arrows. He will strive to hinder you in service: he will insinuate that you are doing no good; and that you want rest. He will endeavour to make you weary of suffering, he will whisper, "Curse God, and die." Or he will attack your steadfastness: "What is the good of being so zealous? Be quiet like the rest; sleep as do others, and let your lamp go out as the other virgins do." Or he will assail your doctrinal sentiments: "Why do you hold to these denominational creeds? Sensible men are getting more liberal; they are removing the old landmarks: fall in with the times." Wear your shield, Christian, therefore, close upon your armour, and cry mightily unto God, that by his Spirit you may endure to the end.
持之以恒是真信徒的标志。基督徒生命不仅是以神的方式开始,也在整个生命过程中持续如一。基督徒就像伟大的拿破仑一样,他说“征服造就了今天的我,而征服也必须维系着我”。因此,在神之下、主之内的亲爱的弟兄们,征服造就了今天的你,征服也必维系你。你们的格言应当是;“精益求精”。他不仅是一个真正的征服者,也是最终被加冕的,一直持续到战争的号角不再吹响。因此,持之以恒就是我们所有灵命敌人的目标。这个世界并不反对你一段时间成为一个基督徒,如果可能,她会引诱你停止你的信仰之旅,安心于在名利场中和她做交易。肉体会寻求诱惑你进入陷阱,阻止你努力寻求荣耀:“成为朝圣者是一项令人疲惫的工作,来吧,停止努力吧,难道我总是要受辱吗?难道我从不放纵自己吗?至少让我在这场持续的战斗中稍作休息吧”。魔鬼会对你的持之以恒发起许多猛烈地攻击,你的持之以恒将成为他所有箭矢的靶子,他会努力阻止你的侍奉,他将暗示你做得不对,你需要休息。他将努力使你承受疲劳,他会小声说“诅咒神和死亡吧”或者他会攻击你的毅力,“这么热情有什么好的呢?像休息一样安静待着吧;像其他人一样睡觉,像其他生手一样让你的灯灭了吧”。也许他会质问你的教义的观点:“为何你会持守这个教派的教义呢?明智的人会变得更加自由;他们正在拆除老旧的标志:进入时代的洪流”。所以,披戴你的铠甲吧,基督徒,握紧你的盾牌,向着神大喊,借由他的圣灵,你将忍耐到最后。

Welcome to Fruit and Truth Devotions

欢迎来到果实和真理敬拜

These devotions are unique, they are the only ones in the world (to my knowledge), that are in English and English with Chinese translation, underneath each other.. These will help my Chinese friends to learn English.

这些敬拜是独一无二的,他们是世上唯一(就我所知)以英文和英汉翻译所做的敬拜..这将有助于我的中国朋友们学习英文。





These devotions are unique, they are the only ones in the world (to my knowledge), that are in English and English with Chinese translation, underneath each other.. These will help my Chinese friends to learn English.

这些敬拜是独一无二的,他们是世上唯一(就我所知)以英文和英汉翻译所做的敬拜..这将有助于我的中国朋友们学习英文。







These devotions are a labour of love for me, they come from my own quiet times with the Lord, they are not manufactured and stolen from anyone else. I do use one commentary on occasion and that is Matthew henry. The English sermons at the end have been listened to, can't understand the chinese ones!. The nations and peoples have been prayed for. I am not asking you to do, what I haven't done. These devotions come from my heart to yours, they are to reach the lost and to teach the saints. If you do not wish to receive them, please just let me know. They are strong meat and I pray that you would be blessed.

这些敬拜对我而言是爱的劳动,他们来自于我和神独处的静谧时光,而不是从其他人处偷窃创造的。我有时会使用马修亨利的评论。不懂中文的您可以收听结尾处的英文布道,请为国家和人民祷告,我不会要求您做我未做的,这些敬拜是我对您的心意,他们也是为了迷失的人并教导信徒。如果您不想接收他们,请让我知道,他们需要慢慢消化,我祷告您会从中获益。

Psalm 27

诗篇27

4 One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in his temple.

4有一件事,我曾求耶和华,我仍要寻求:就是一生一世住在耶和华的殿中,瞻仰他的荣美,在他的殿里求问。

What is the one thing you truly desire? David knew what it was, and it was to dwell in God's presence and to behold God's beauty.

你真正想要的是什么呢?大卫知道是什么,就是住在神所在的地方,目睹神的美丽。
Now you may say, "I can't stay in that state forever, as we have to work in the real world." But there is a real sense that we can dwell in God's presence. David wanted an ongoing minute by minute communion with his Lord and Creator.

现在你可能会说,“我不能永远处于那种状态,因为我要在现实世界工作”。但与神同行才有真实的感觉。大卫想要分分秒秒都与主和上帝交流。



Matthew Henry Comments


马修亨利的评论

With what a gracious earnestness he prays for a constant communion with God in holy ordinances. It greatly encouraged his confidence in God that he was conscious to himself of an entire affection to God and to his ordinances, and that he was in his element when in the way of his duty and in the way of increasing his acquaintance with him.
他以多么亲切诚挚的祷告,与神在他神圣的条例下沟通,这极大的增加了他的自信,使得他可以察觉对神完全的爱,当他的条例妨碍到他的职责以及妨碍他增进对神的了解时,他都能得心应手。



Look at the words David is using here: seek after, enquire, behold. He is in earnest here; it is in the middle of a busy life for David, but he wanted God more than anything else. He wanted to know God's word, and he wanted to see God's beauty.

看看大卫在这里使用的词汇吧:寻求,求问,瞻仰。他在这儿是认真的;这是在大卫忙碌生活期间,但他比其他时候更需要神。他想了解神的话,他想看到神的荣美。

Is this your one desire Christian above everything else?
你是一个求问神高于其他任何事的基督徒吗?


PHILIPPIANS 3
腓立比书3

13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
13 弟兄们,我不是以为自己已经得着了,我只有一件事,就是忘记背后,努力面前的
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
14 向着标竿直跑,要得 神在基督耶稣里从上面召我来得的奖赏。
So, you think you know it all? If anyone knew it all, it would have been the apostle, Paul! He wrote the amazing epistles, but what's Paul saying here?
那么你认为你了解一切吗?如果有人了解一切,那一定是使徒,保罗!他写了令人称奇的书信,那么保罗在这里说了什么呢?
He writes in earlier verses of apprehending something, of attaining something, and the concept of apprehending is one of earnestly seeking after something. Paul hasn't found it yet, but is still seeking to know what it says in verse 10, and what a verse that is!!

他在之前的章节写道他所领悟的一些事,所收获的一些事,他所领悟的就是热切寻求。保罗仍然没有找到,但一直在寻求了解第10节所说的,这是何等的诗句啊!!
10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death.
10 使我认识基督,晓得他复活的大能,并且晓得和他一同受苦,效法他的死。
To apprehend this, he must do one thing and that is to let go of his past. He totally let's go of everything in his past, his achievements, his life, and more, because it was a hindrance. You cannot reach forth if you are carrying the chains of your past!
要理解这点,他必须做一件事,即放下他的过去。要完全放下过去所有,他的成就,他的生命,以及更多,因为过去是一种阻碍。你不能戴着过去的锁链向前。
Have you tried to reach up to the top shelf of a cupboard with a lead weight around your leg? You can't do it. You have to take the lead weight off to reach up to get the cookies. Likewise, in the Christian life, if you wish to reach forth, you must get rid of the sin and guilt which is holding you back. Anything that is holding you back must be cast off.
你试过腿上带着一个铅块够橱柜最上面的架子吗?你无法做到,你必须取下铅块方能够到那个饼干。同样,如果你希望达到基督徒生活,就必须除去阻止你的罪和愧疚,任何拖你后腿的都必须摆脱。
Do you want to win the prize? In 1 Corinthians 9:24-27, Paul uses the analogy of a runner. Do you see a runner going round the track in his tracksuit carrying his sports bag? Of course not! He lays it to one side so he can compete effectively in the race.
你想赢得奖牌吗?在哥林多前书9章24-27节中,保罗使用了一个赛跑的类比。你们见过一个穿着运动服拿着运动包绕着跑道跑的人吗?肯定没有!他会把包放到一边以便能完全投入比赛。
Christian, you need to get rid of any hindrance in your life; anything that stops you from reaching forth to win the prize. Maybe it is sin, maybe it an idol, or maybe it's something that has taken the place of Christ on the throne of your life.
基督徒,你需要除去你生活中任何阻碍,任何阻止你向前赢得奖牌的东西。也许是罪,也许是偶像,或者是在你生活中取代基督位置的某些东西。
You need to do one thing and forget your past and move forward to win the prize.
你需要做一件事,忘记过去,向前赢得奖牌。

2 Peter 3
彼得后书3
8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
8 亲爱的弟兄啊,有一件事你们不可忘记,就是主看一日如千年,千年如一日。
We end on a note of absolute joy, because if you aren't excited by the return of Jesus, then as a Christian you need to wake up!
我们在全然喜乐的确据中结束,因为如果你不欢喜耶稣再来,那么作为基督徒,你需要醒来了!
This verse is in the middle of Peter refuting people who say, "Jesus will never return... show us the evidence."
在彼得后书的章节中,那些反驳的人说,“耶稣永不会再来...给我们看看证据吧”
Peter gives the reasons in the early verses of this chapter and reminds believers that God is completely above our heads. He doesn't think about time like we do, thankfully.
彼得在这章前几节中给出了理由,提醒信托们神是完全高于我们的,,谢天谢地,他的时间并不像我们的时间。
We have to live in the light of Christ's return, looking for that blessed hope.
我们必须活在耶稣再来的希望中,并寻求那祝福。
In verse 9, Peter says that God does not forget His promises; He is not like man, who breaks his promises, but He is waiting until everyone has had a chance to hear the gospel and for everything to be fulfilled.
在9节中,彼得说神并没有忘记他的承诺;他不像人总是违背承诺,但他会等到每个人有机会听到福音以及凡事成全之时。
We are not to worry about when Jesus will come back, but be ready and live as holy people in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, anticipating His return.
我们不担心耶稣会再来,但在扭曲悖逆的一代人中,要做好准备,像圣洁之人一样生活,期待他的回来。
God knows the times and seasons; He has all things in His hands. This verse should give us so much confidence...
神知道时候和日期,他掌控一切事。这节经文会给我们许多自信...
One thing to remember: God is still in charge and one day we will be taken home!
记住一件事:神仍在掌权,总有一天我们将被带回家!
Let us live in the light of that amazing fact!
让我们生活在那个奇妙事实的希望中!
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
10但主的日子要像贼来到一样,那日,天必大有响声废去,有形质的都要被烈火销化,地和其上的物都要烧尽了。
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
11这一切既然都要如此销化,你们为人该当怎样圣洁、怎样敬虔
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
12切切仰望 神的日子来到。在那日,天被火烧就销化了,有形质的都要被烈火熔化。
13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
13但我们照他的应许,盼望新天新地,有义居在其中。
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
14亲爱的弟兄啊,你们既盼望这些事,就当殷勤,使自己没有玷污,无可指摘,安然见主。
To complete this study, I must finish by saying ONE LAST THING.
要完成本研究,我必须说最后一件事。
The final words of Jesus in Matthew 28 should be etched on our mind. They are OUR commission, our charter, and our motivation.
耶稣在马可福音28章所讲的最后的话应当铭刻在我们的脑海中。他们是我们的使命,我们的章程,我们的动力。
Our Lord has given us our orders. These are not options; they are commands. So why aren't we obeying them?
我们的主已经给我们下了指令,这并不是可选项,而是指令,为何我们不遵守呢?
When was the last time you?
你的最后一次是什么时候?
Led someone to Christ.
引导一些人归向圣灵
Led someone deeper in their faith.
引导一些人更深地信服
Shared the gospel with someone.
和一些人分享福音
Gave out a gospel tract.
分发福音小册子
Showed the love of Christ in practical ways.
用实际方式展示基督之爱
God is watching us all, me included. Before you say how difficult it is, remember I know it is! I live in China and my Chinese is so limited. But I can and do share with the Chinese and have been privileged to share with many foreigners that God has led me to.
神在看着我们,包括我。当你说多么困难的时候,要知道我明白有多困难!我住在中国,我的中国朋友有限,但我能和他们分享中文,并有优势介绍许多神引导我认识的外国人
It is scary! Believe me, but we do this because we know the love and terror of the Lord. We have to share, because we know the consequences of millions going to a Christ-less eternity.
这很可怕!相信我,但我们这么做因为我们认识主的仁爱和恐怖。我们必须分享,因为我们知道数百万人没有基督中永恒的后果。
It is not enough to go to church on Sunday and Wednesday nights! Have you little/no concern for sharing your faith? Spurgeon put it like this, "If you have no concern for the lost, then you aren't saved yourself".
周末和周三晚上去教堂是远远不够的!你对分享你的信念漠不关心吗?司布真这么描述,“如果你不关心那些失丧的人,那你就没有得救”
Believe me... you cannot share something that isn't a reality in your own life.
相信我...你无法分享你自己生活中并不真实存在的事情。
We have a twofold purpose in this world:
在这世上我们有双重目的:
TO KNOW GOD AND TO MAKE HIM KNOWN
认识神并使他被认识
May this ONE THING be our consuming passion!
这一件事就是我们强烈激情所在!
God bless you,
愿神祝福你,
Keith

ONE THING

有一件事

John 9

约翰福音9
25 He answered and said, whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
25他说:“他是个罪人不是,我不知道;有一件事我知道,从前我是眼瞎的,如今能看见了。”

This is the testimony of every true believer... I WAS BLIND, BUT NOW I CAN SEE.
这是对每个真信徒的试炼…从前我是眼瞎的,如今能看见了。

The blind man was probably not educated, and certainly not up to the level of the Jewish elite. But knowing this simple fact made him more educated than a thousand professors. Something amazing had happened to him, and this was beyond the understanding of all these "wise" men.
盲人也许没有受到教育,当然也不会达到以色列精英的水平。但了解这个简单事实使得他比一千个教授更有教养。一些令人惊异发生在他身上,这超出了所有这些“智慧”之人的理解能力。

Paul knew this fact, and knew something happened to him on the road to Damascus, as he recalls in 2 Timothy 1. Remember that Paul is a short time from death when he wrote these words:

保罗知道这个事实,也知道在他去大马士革路上碰巧发生的事,正如他在提摩太后书1章中回忆的,当写这些话时,他记得当时感觉离死亡不远了:
12 For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless, I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.
12为这缘故,我也受这些苦难,然而我不以为耻。因为知道我所信的是谁,也深信他能保全我所交付他的,直到那日。

Paul met Jesus! He knew this one thing; eyes that had been darkened had been opened to the light of the glorious gospel of Christ.
保罗见到了耶稣!他知道了一件事;陷入黑暗的眼睛被基督福音的荣耀之光打开了。

John Newton in his great hymn, Amazing Grace, puts it like this:
约翰牛顿在他的伟大赞美诗,奇异恩典,中这样写道:

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
奇异恩典!何等甘甜
我罪已得赦免!
前我失丧,今被寻回;
瞎眼今得看见。

Of all the facts we can learn, this is the one thing we need to know. People can put forward all their theories, all their new and old ideas, but the Christian is the only person in the world who can say.. THIS ONE THING I KNOW, ONCE I WAS BLIND, NOW I CAN SEE.
在所有我们了解到的事实中,这是我们需要知道的一件事。人们能够提出所有理论,所有新的旧的思想,但基督徒是世界上唯一一种能够说“有一件事我知道,从前我是眼瞎的,如今能看见了的人

Can you say that with confidence and full assurance? If not, you need to come to the foot of the cross in repentance and faith.
你能充满自信和保证地说这句话吗?如果不能,你需要来到十字架脚下悔改和确信。


LUKE 18

路加福音18


22 Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
22耶稣听见了,就说:“你还缺少一件:要变卖你一切所有的,分给穷人,就必有财宝在天上,你还要来跟从我。”


What a fascinating conversation this is! The rich young ruler seems to have done everything right. He had kept the commandments relating to others, and if anyone was to get into the Kingdom of God, it would be him.
这是多么吸引人的谈话!富有的年轻管理者看起来已经做了一切正确的事,他遵守了与他人相处的诫命,假如有人要进入神的国,应该就是他。


But he forgotten the commandments that said in Exodus 20:

但他忘了出埃及记20中的诫命:

3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
3“除了我以外,你不可有别的神。

4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
4 不可为自己雕刻偶像;也不可作什么形像仿佛上天、下地和地底下、水中的百物。
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me
5 不可跪拜那些像;也不可侍奉它,因为我耶和华你的神,是忌邪的 神。恨我的,我必追讨他的罪,自父及子,直到三四代。

Jesus puts His finger on this man's problems and there were many.
耶稣确切说出这个人的问题,还有许多处。

One was of spiritual pride. He thought he had kept all the commandments of God, but it says if you keep all the law and fail in one point, you are guilty of breaking the whole law.
一个问题是属灵的骄傲。他说他已经遵守了神的诫命,但如果你遵守所有律法却在某一点失败,你就会因违背整个律法而愧疚。

The riches he had were an idol in his life. He was being asked to tear down that idol and follow Christ, which he was not prepared to do.
他所拥有的财富在其生命中是一个偶像。他被要求打破那个偶像跟随基督,而这并不是他预备去做的。

When Jesus saves us, He sits on the throne of our life: not money, riches, power, or prestige. This man wasn't prepared to do the one thing that was needed to have Jesus in his life. He wanted eternal life, but on his terms.
当耶稣救了我们,他就坐在了我们生命的宝座上:不是金钱,财富,权力,或声望。这个人没有准备好去做需要把耶稣带进他的生命这件事,他想要永恒的生命,但是要按他的方式。

Look further on in this chapter and typically Peter makes another of his big boasts. We don't know this, but perhaps the rich young ruler was still close by. Jesus says that the benefits of following HIM far outweigh the sacrifices you feel you have to make. You will receive much more in this life and here's the icing on the cake, we get eternal life also!
进一步看这一章,彼得不出所料又做了一番自我吹嘘。我们不知道,但也许这位富有的年轻管理者仍然在旁边。耶稣说跟随他的益处远远超出你感觉自己做出的牺牲。你会在生命中收获更多,会有裹着糖霜的蛋糕,我们还会收获永恒的生命!

28 Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.
28 彼得说:“看哪,我们已经撇下自己所有的跟从你了。”
29 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, there is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God's sake,
29耶稣说:“我实在告诉你们:人为 神的国撇下房屋,或是妻子、弟兄、父母、儿女,
30 Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting.
30没有在今世不得百倍,在来世不得永生的。”

Is there something stopping you from coming to Jesus and following HIM?
还有什么阻止你来到耶稣面前跟随他的吗?


Luke 10
路加福音10

38 Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
38他们走路的时候,耶稣进了一个村庄。有一个女人名叫马大,接他到自己家里。
39 And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.
39她有一个妹子名叫马利亚,在耶稣脚前坐着听他的道。
40 But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.
40马大伺候的事多,心里忙乱,就进前来说:“主啊,我的妹子留下我一个人伺候,你不在意吗?请吩咐她来帮助我。”
41 And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:
41耶稣回答说:“马大,马大!你为许多的事思虑烦扰
42 But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
42但是不可少的只有一件,马利亚已经选择那上好的福分,是不能夺去的。”

Jesus had come into Martha's house. He had His disciples with Him, and they needed food and drink.
耶稣进入马大家里,使徒们跟随他,他们需要食物和喝的。

Martha was doing the right thing; she was taking care of the needs of Jesus and His disciples.
马大在做正确的事,她照顾满足耶稣和他使徒们的需要。

The words of Jesus in verse 42 are so amazing.. ONE THING IS NEEDFUL.

耶稣在42节中的话令人称奇..有一件事不可少。
So many of us like Martha are doing what is needed on a physical level, but the real need for the believer is to sit at the feet of Jesus and learn from Him, and then we can truly serve others. The real need of the believer is communion with Jesus.
我们中的许多人都像马大一样在做着身体层面所需要的事,但对于信徒来说真正不可少的是坐在耶稣脚旁向他学习,然后真正地服务于他人。信徒真正需要做的是与耶稣沟通。

A question: Are we doing what is needed or are we doing the needful thing, the ONE THING that matters, sitting at the feet of Jesus and learning from HIM?
一个问题:我们在做需要做的吗?在做一件唯一重要的事,坐在耶稣脚旁向他学习吗?

A challenge: Take your Bible into a bedroom, shut the door and just be alone with God, or go to a place where you won't be disturbed, and take time to be alone with God. Spend an hour alone with Him, and turn off all the noise of the world: the TV, the computer, or your cell phone.

一项挑战:把圣经拿到卧室,关上门独自与神相处,或到一个不被打扰的地方,独自与神在一起。花一个小时与他共处,关闭所有俗世的喧闹:电视,电脑,或你的手机。

KEITH NOTES FROM NANJING - Page 3 Empty Re: KEITH NOTES FROM NANJING

Post  Admin Tue 06 Jun 2023, 9:29 pm

“Walk . . . with patience” (Ephesians 4:1-2).

"凡事……忍耐"(以弗所书4:1-2)


Patient Christians endure negative circumstances, cope with difficult people, and accept God’s plan for everything.

忍耐的基督徒承受消极的状况

应对不易相处的人

并接受上帝对所有事情的计划


01


In our instant, microwave, drive-through, “I want it now” culture, patience is hard to come by. We get upset if we have to wait too long in the supermarket line or get stuck behind the guy driving ten miles per hour under the speed limit.


如今,微波炉,快餐,“我立即就要”的文化,使得忍耐很难得。如果我们在超市要排很长队伍或是在限速时跟在一个时速10米的车后面,我们就会厌烦。

02


But today’s Scripture tells us that our lives need to be marked by patience. The Greek word translated “patience” literally means “long-tempered.” A patient person doesn’t have a short fuse or lose his temper.


但今天的经文告诉我们,我们的生活必须要忍耐。希腊语“忍耐”是“慢脾气”的意思。一个有耐心的人不会容易发脾气或上火。


There are three aspects to biblical patience. First, patience never gives in to negative circumstances, no matter how difficult. God told Abraham He would make him into a great nation and give Canaan to his descendants (Gen. 12:2, 7). When God made this promise, Abraham and Sarah had no children. They had to wait far past their childbearing years before God gave them a son. But Hebrews 6:15 says, “Having patiently waited, [Abraham] obtained the promise.” “He did not waver in unbelief, but grew strong in faith, giving glory to God” (Rom. 4:20). He trusted God and patiently waited for Him to fulfill His promise.


圣经中的忍耐有三个方面。第一,忍耐从不向负面状况妥协,无论多么困难的状况。上帝告诉亚伯拉罕要让他成为大国,并把迦南赐给他的子孙(创世记12:2,7)。当上帝许诺时,亚伯拉罕和撒莱并没有孩子。他们在已经过了生育年纪的日子里还要等候上帝所赐的儿子。但希伯来书6:15说:“这样,亚伯拉罕既恒久忍耐,就得了所应许的。”“并且仰望 神的应许,总没有因不信心里起疑惑,反倒因信心得坚固,将荣耀归给 神。”(罗马书4:20)。他信靠上帝,耐心地等候上帝实现祂的应许。

03


A second aspect of patience is coping with difficult people. Paul tells us to “be patient with all men” (1 Thess. 5:14). This is applied gentleness—a spirit that refuses to retaliate. Our normal reaction is to be defensive when provoked. But a patient person bears insult, persecution, unfair treatment, slander, and hatred. You can’t start a fight with a patient person. He defends God, not himself, knowing that He will repay all wrongs at the right time.


忍耐的第二方面是要应对难以相处的人。保罗告诉我们“也要向众人忍耐”(帖撒罗尼迦前书5:14)。这里应用的是温柔--拒绝报复的属灵果实。被激怒时,我们正常的反应是防御。但一个忍耐的人可以承受咒诅,逼迫,不公平的对待,鞭打和憎恨。你不可能与忍耐的人起冲突。他为上帝辩护,却不为自己,因为上帝必在合适的时候对所有的恶行进行报应。

04


Third, patience accepts God’s plan for everything. It doesn’t question God. A patient person says, “Lord, if this is what You have planned for me, that’s all right.” Romans 8:28 says, “We know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.” Since God is in control, we can be patient, waiting for Him to work out His will.


第三,忍耐接受上帝所做的各样安排。不质疑上帝。一个忍耐的人说,“主啊,这是你为我所定的,一切都是好的。”罗马书8:28:“我们晓得万事都互相效力,叫爱 神的人得益处,就是按他旨意被召的人。”因为上帝在掌权,我们可以忍耐,等祂完成祂的旨意。



Suggestions for Prayer 祷告建议


Ask God to help you recognize when you’re apt to be impatient. When those times come, pray for strength to endure them.


求上帝在你没有耐心时意识到需要忍耐。当这样的时刻来临时,求主加力量来承受。


For Further Study 进深研究


James 5:10 says the prophets were examples of suffering and patience. Read what two prophets had to endure in Isaiah 6:9-12 and Jeremiah 1:5-19.


雅各书5:10 说先知们是能受苦能忍耐的榜样。阅读以赛亚书6:9-12和耶利米书1:5-19,了解两位先知经历了怎样的苦难。


How might they be examples to you as you seek to be faithful in the face of life’s tests?


在你面对生命中的试炼时,你该如何效法两位先知?


【Copyright 2007, Grace to You. All rights reserved. Used by permission.】



‘For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life’” (John 3:16).



上帝爱世人,甚至将祂的独生子赐给他们,叫一切信祂的,不至灭亡,反得永生(约翰福音3:16)。






God’s love is vicarious and sacrificial.

上帝的爱是替代的、牺牲的爱。



Today we continue a short study of a topic that brings joy to every Christian: God’s love. Both Paul and John call His love “great” (Eph.2:4; 1 John 3:1), because only great love would provide such a sacrifice as God did in Christ.



今天我们继续围绕一个让每个基督徒喜乐的主题进行简短的学习:上帝的爱。保罗和约翰都称祂的爱是“大爱”(以弗所书2:4;约翰福音3:1),因为只有大爱才能像上帝在基督里所做的牺牲。



We have already seen that God’s love is unconditional, unrequited, and righteous. God’s love is also vicarious; it bears the pain of others. In a prophecy about Christ, Isaiah wrote: “Surely our griefs He Himselfbore, and our sorrows He carried” (Isaiah 53:4). Christ bears our earthly sorrows, and, infinitely more significant, He bore the pain and punishment for our sins.



我们已经知道上帝的爱是无条件的、不求回报的、义的。上帝的爱也是替代性的;上帝的爱承受了他人的苦痛。提到基督的预言,以赛亚书说:“祂诚然担当我们的忧患,背负我们的痛苦;我们却以为祂受责罚,被上帝击打苦待了”(以赛亚书53:4)。基督背负了我们世上的苦楚,无比重要的是,祂为我们的罪背负了疼痛和惩罚。



True love is a sacrificial love that gives without expecting anything in return. God gives so many good things to everyone, and He gave the greatest gift of all, His Son. As John 3:16 teaches, love was His motive for sending Christ to die; He wanted to provide salvation for us.



真爱是舍己的爱,给予不求回报。上帝赐给每个人如此多的好处,其中最好的礼物是,祂的儿子。正如约翰福音3章16节所说的,爱是祂差遣基督受死的动机;祂想给我们提供救赎。





Again we must examine ourselves after seeing God’s love. Galatians 6:2 says, “Bear one another’s burdens, and thus fulfill the law of Christ.” Are you encouraging and helping other Christians in difficulty? Also, ask yourself if you love regardless of the sacrifice. Some will “love” up to the point of pain or inconvenience but no further. However, Jesus commands us, “Love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for He Himself is kind to ungrateful and evil men” (Luke 6:35). Love is not always easy, but it’s always best.



再次我们知道上帝的爱之后要审查自己。加拉太书6章2节:“你们各人的重担要互相担当,如此,就完全了基督的律法。”你是否鼓励帮助其他处在困境中的信徒?也问问你自己,是否爱的不计牺牲。有些人会“爱”到痛苦或不便的地步,但不会更进一步。然而,主耶稣命令我们:“你们倒要爱仇敌,也要善待他们,并要借给人不指望偿还,你们的赏赐就必大了,你们也必作至高者的儿子,因为祂恩待那忘恩的和作恶的”(路加福音6:35)。爱从来都不简单,却总是最好的。






So much more could be said about God’s love. Countless books and hymns have been written about it. We can get only a basic understanding in these few paragraphs. But let this introduction serve as a starting point for a life long study of God’s love. It’s one of the greatest themes in the Bible; you can’t miss it.



提到上帝的爱总有更多可说的。数不尽的书籍和诗歌都提到上帝的爱。我们只能在很少的片段中了解个大概。但让这个引言作为一生学习上帝之爱的起点。上帝的爱是圣经中最大的主题;你不能忽视。







Suggestions for Prayer

祷告建议



Pray for strength to bear the burdens of others and to love with sacrificial love.



祷告有力量承担他人的重担,有舍己的爱。



For Further Study

进深研究


Jesus talks about His love for us in John 15:9-17. In what ways should we respond to God’s love?



在约翰福音15章9-17节中,主耶稣讲述了祂对我们的爱。我们该用何种方式回应上帝的爱?



Based on these verses, think of specific ways you can demonstrate your love for God and others.



基于这些经文,思考一下你用什么特殊方式向上帝和他人表达你的爱。

We had a lady who came to church quite infrequently. She moved out of Nanjing, and her son "E" came with her to church, and I shared with him.
我们中有位女士极少去教堂,她搬出了南京,于是她的儿子和她去教堂,我与他一起交流。
He is now a member of CCP "Young Pioneers..."
他现在是共产党“青年先锋队员“。
This is what he wrote on one of his WeChat groups:
以下是他在他的一个微信群里所写的:
I am a member of the Chinese YP I swear under the banner of the team. I love the CCP, love the Motherland, love the people, study hard, exercise well, prepare, contribute to the cause of the CCP.
我是中国青年先锋队员,我在队旗下宣誓,热爱党,热爱祖国,爱人民,努力学习,好好锻炼,时刻准备着为党奉献。
This has had a profound effect on me, as there are millions of young pioneers... millions of CCP members trapped in this.
这件事对我有着深刻影响,因为这里有数以百万的青年团员,以及众多共产党员。
We have heard of many thousands of Muslim leaders who have come to Christ, but who prays for these young people? Please pray for the millions of CCP members and the young pioneers.
我们曾听说成千上万的穆斯林领袖来到基督面前,但有谁为这些年轻人祈祷吗?请为这众多党员和青年团员祈祷吧。
This is a special appeal to pray for them.
为他们祈祷有特别的吸引力。
How is God going to work? He speaks sometimes through supernatural means such as dreams and visions, but He tells us to preach the Gospel and pray. Please pray earnestly and fervently.
神是如何工作的?他有时通过超自然方式讲话,诸如梦和异象,但他要我们传扬福音并祈祷。请诚恳而热烈地祷告吧。
Finally, why can't we show as Christians the same commitment to the cause of Christ?
最后,我们为何不能展示作为基督徒,因基督的原因而做出相同承诺呢?
Let me re-write this for you:
让我为你重新讲述一遍:
I AM A MEMBER OF THE BODY OF CHRIST - Scripture
我是基督身体的一部分-经文
I WILL SERVE MY FELLOW BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN SELFLESS AND HUMBLE SERVICE - JOHN 13:1-17
我将以无私谦卑服务于我的弟兄姐妹们。约翰福音13:1-17
I LOVE MY FELLOW BROTHERS AND SISTERS - 1 JOHN 4:19-21
我爱我的弟兄姐妹们-约翰一书4:19-21
I LOVE MY HEAVENLY HOME - Scripture
我爱我天上的家-经文
I LOVE THE WORLD WITH THE COMPASSION OF CHRIST - Scripture
我用基督的怜悯爱这世界-经文
I WILL STUDY AND SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES TO BE A WORKMAN APPROVED OF GOD - 2 TIMOTHY 2:15 AND 3:16-4:2
我将学习研究圣经,成为神认可的事工-提摩太后书2:15和3:16-4:2
I WILL KEEP MY BODY UNDER SUBJECTION - 1 COR 9:24-27
我将使我的身体顺服-哥林多前书9:24-27
I WILL PREPARE WELL BY SPENDING MUCH TIME WITH GOD - Scripture
我将准备好与神更多时间相处-经文
I WILL SEEK EVERY DAY TO MAKE A UNIQUE CONTRIBUTION TO THE KINGDOM OF GOD - Scripture
我将寻求每一天为神的国度做独特的贡献-经文
My question is: If people who are trapped in an ideology that is false and a false religion that gives them no hope, and show such devotion it, then why can't I/we as Christians show true devotion to the One who bought us be His own precious blood and saved us from sin, death and hell?
我的问题是:如果人们陷入错误的意识形态以及毫无希望的错误宗教,并为此敬拜,那么我/我们作为基督徒,为何不能向那以珍贵宝血买了我们,并救赎我们脱离罪,死亡和地狱的那位表达真实的敬拜呢?
They spend every penny on spreading their false religion, every hour seeking new converts, and every breath telling people a lie!
他们花每一分钱传扬他们的错误宗教,每个小时寻求新的转变,每次呼吸都在讲述谎言!
I remember years ago; I visited my brother in Canada. He took me to see my favourite ice hockey team, the Ottawa Senators, play their big rivals the Toronto Maple Leaf's. I sat next to a guy, a leaf's fan, who had travelled many miles to be there; he had sacrificed his time and money just to see his team play. But will we sacrifice anything; Wednesday nights if it's raining, will we go to prayer meetings or if it's raining on a Sunday morning, will we skip church?
我记得多年前拜访加拿大的兄长,他带我看最喜欢的冰球队,渥太华参议员队,对阵他们的主要竞争对手,多伦多枫叶队。我坐在一个伙计旁边,他是枫叶队球迷,旅行许多英里来到那里;他牺牲了时间和金钱只为看他的球队比赛。我们也会牺牲任何事吗?周四晚间如果下雨我们会参加祷告聚会吗?或周日早晨下雨,我们会不去教堂吗?
We sit there and do nothing; maybe we do a little. If we showed half of the commitment of the Mormons, Muslims and even this young man, then maybe the Gospel would have reached many more than it has.
我们坐在那里无所事事;也许我们做了那么一丁点事,如果我们表现出有摩门教徒,穆斯林们甚至这个年轻人一半的承诺,福音也许就会比目前传给更多人。
We need a subtle kick in the pants. Me included! We do just enough to get by...
我们需要不露声色的下点狠功夫,包括我,需要做足够多…来获得。
Some Christians can't read 4 verses; we feed on scraps, and expect to be fed by our pastors. We are not infants! We are adults. Adults feed themselves. Some of you reading this, have:
一些基督徒不能读4节经文,我们吃着残羹剩饭,期待着被牧师牧养,我们不是婴儿!我们是成年人,成年人自给自足。你们中一些人读过这个:
Never read through the Bible in a year.
从不曾在一年内通读圣经。
Never spent any more than two minutes in prayer.
从不曾在祷告中花费超过2分钟
Never shared the Gospel one to one.
从不曾一对一分享福音。
Never stayed still and listened to God for any more than 2 minutes.
从不曾安静待着聆听神超过2分钟。
This young man will do everything to extend the role of the CCP. He will go to any lengths; he will give all his money, all his time, and all his effort!
这个年轻人会做任何事来扩展共产党的职能。他会不择手段,他会奉献所有金钱,时间和他的努力!

What do we give?
我们奉献了什么?
Sunday morning or if pushed, Wednesday nights...
周日早晨或者如果有人催的话,周四晚间…
Hit a nerve yet... Good!
触到痛处了吗…好!
Why then aren't the pastors screaming a warning to their people?
为什么牧师们不对他们的人大声警告?
WAKE UP!!
醒来吧!
Every prophet in the OT sought to tell the people of Israel what?
旧约里的每个先知都在试图告诉以色列人民什么呢?
WAKE UP!!
醒来吧!
The Christian life is a battle zone. It is filled with daily battles, persecution, and fighting our own flesh.
基督徒生活是一个奋斗领域。它每天都充满斗争,迫害,以及与肉体的争斗。
The Christian doesn't belong here on Earth; we are strangers and pilgrims. We have a home and we belong there. When we identify with our Saviour, the world will hate us. it hated Him and will hate us. He made that clear.
基督徒不属于这个地球,我们是互不相识者和朝圣者。我们有家,我们属于那里。当我们确认了我们的救主,世界都会恨我们。世界恨他,也会恨我们。因他使一切清晰可知。
Life is all about Him! Jesus is our life, Jesus is our love, Jesus is our Lord!
生命关乎他!耶稣是我们的生命,耶稣是我们的爱,耶稣是我们的主!
It's time to show the world that Jesus lives in us.
是时候向世界展示耶稣活在我们之中了。
Penn Gillete is an atheist who said:
Penn Gillete是一个无神论者,他说道:
"If you truly believe that people are going to hell and you don't tell them, how much do you have to hate them not to tell them?"
如果你真的相信人会下地狱,并且不告诉他们,你有多恨他们才不会告诉他们?
Let me say:
而我说:
If you won't sacrifice for Christ,
If you won't obey Christ's commands,
If you won't read His Word,
If you won't spend time with God in prayer,
如果你不为基督牺牲,如果你不遵守基督的诫命,如果你不读他的话语,如果你不在祷告中花时间与神一起,
Then you have a serious problem my friend!
那么你有严重问题了我的朋友!
The book of 1 John has a series of questions; look at that book and test yourself to see if you are in the faith - 2 Cor 13:5.
约翰一书有一系列问题;看看那页书检验你自己是否在信心中-哥林多后书13:5
Keith Green, my dear brother, once said this in one of his songs:
吉思格林,我亲爱的哥哥,在他的一首歌中曾经写道:
"Jesus rose from the dead, and you won't get out of bed."
“耶稣从死中复活了,而你却没起床”
I go back to what that young man said at the start. If you can't or won't match his devotion, don't waste God's time. If he is so devoted to his ideology, why can't we be as devoted to Christ?
返回到那个年轻人起初所说。如果你不能或不会和他的奉献相比,不要浪费神的时间。如果他奉献给他的意识形态,我们为何不能奉献给基督?
It doesn't matter how long you have gone to church, what matters is:
不管你多久去一次教堂都没关系,重要的是:
Jesus said, "If you love Me, you will keep My commandments."
耶稣说,“如果你爱我,你就会遵守我的诫命”
Please feel free to share this.

1 CORINTHIANS 16

哥林多前书 16
Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.
论到为圣徒捐钱,我从前怎样吩咐加拉太的众教会,你们也当怎样行。
2 Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.

THE BIGGEST ANTI-CLIMAX IN THE BIBLE
圣经中最虎头蛇尾的事
Paul deals with a variety of issues in this letter to the Corinthians.
保罗在给哥林多人的书信中安排了各种各样的事
I once heard my first pastor, David Green, preach on these verses. He said that it seems such an anti climax, as we go from Paul teaching such amazing truths, to a subject that seems very mundane and dry.
我曾经读过我的第一位牧师大卫格林关于这些章节的讲道。他说,这看起来实在虎头蛇尾,就像我们从保罗所教导的令人称奇的真道,走向一个看起来平淡而枯燥的主题。
Remember that at the time of the writing of the Bible, there were no chapter divisions.
切记圣经被记录下来的时候,是没有章节划分的
There are some amazing things that we can learn from these verses.
我们能从这些章节中学到一些令人称奇的事。
Paul has talked for a full chapter on the resurrection of Jesus. He now shows one example of how this should be worked out. In the phrase "the first day of the week", Paul is clearly linking the day Jesus rose from the dead, or the first day of the week, with the subject of giving.
保罗用整章谈论耶稣复活。他给我们展示了一个例子来诠释这一内容。在短语“七日的第一日”中,保罗清楚地将耶稣从死中复活,和捐赠的主题联系起来
There are always needs in Christ's church; here there was a need in the church in Jerusalem, and so the believers have to make a conscious decision to put something aside.
基督的教会中总是有许多需求,在耶路撒冷教会也有需求,因此信徒们不得不慎重决定预留一些东西。
I strongly believe in tithing, and I also believe in the blessings of first fruits. We give on the first day of the week, and put God first in our giving. He gets the first part and not the left overs. We need to make a conscious decision to put money aside. This means, not only have we to deny ourselves physically, but we have to deny ourselves financially, and put God first in our financial dealings and in our giving.
我坚定地信任什一税,也信任初熟果子的祝福。我们在七日第一天捐赠,在捐赠中把神放在首位,他得到首份而不是剩余的。我们需要清醒地知道要预留一些钱,这意味着我们不仅要克制我们的肉体,还要在经济上克制自己,把神放在我们经济交易和捐赠的首位。
God will prosper you, but He prospers you, not to give you a bigger bank account, but to make you a better and bigger giver.
神会使你通达,但他使你通达,并不是给你一个更大的银行账户,而是使你更好更多地给予。
Jesus said store not up things for yourselves, but give. If you give like you should, then God will open the storehouses of heaven and pour out a blessing you can't contain.
耶稣说不要为自己积财,而要给予。若你付出了所应给的,神就会打开天堂的府库,给你满满的祝福。
The apostle John said that if you know of a need and are able to meet it, how can you be truly saved?
使徒约翰说如果你只了解一项需求,并满足他,如何真正得救呢?
But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
那些凡有世上财物的,看见弟兄穷乏,却塞住怜恤的心,爱神的心怎能存在他里面呢?
You see the need, you know the need, you can meet the need, but you decide not to; that is what it means to close or shut up the bowels of your compassion.
你看到了短缺,你知道有缺乏,你能满足需求,但你却不这么做;这就是关闭或塞住怜恤的心的含义。
Have you ever done that?
I know I have, just being honest here. We need never to turn off our bowels of compassion. We do it because we want to; it is our conscious decision to do so, so let me ask this question.Isn't God within His rights to stop His bowels of compassion to you?
你曾经这么做过吗?诚实地说我做过。我们永远不要关闭怜恤的心。我们这么做是因为我们想要这么做,这是我们的良心使然。让我问一个问题吧,神难道没有权力停止他对你的怜恤之心吗?
We are to set aside money for a rainy day, but we are also to share generously and meet the needs of other believers. One of the distinguishing features of the early church was the difference between Barnabas and the hoarders of Acts 5.
我们要预留钱以便不时之需,我们也要慷慨分享,满足其他信徒的需要。区别早期教会的其中一个特征就是巴拿巴和使徒行传第5章囤积财富者的区别。
Why is the church so powerless? Because we hoard for ourselves; it's my money you cry. It's not, it's God's.. amen.
教会为何如此无力呢?因为我们为自己囤积财富;你大声哭喊:这是我的钱。不,这是神的..阿们。
Use it for His glory. Give with a generous heart and see what God will do Malachi Chapter 3.. amen.
把钱用于荣耀神吧。以慷慨之心赠予,就会看到神在玛拉基书第3章中所做的..阿们。
God bless you,
愿神祝福你

2 CORINTHIANS 8
哥林多后书 8
We want you to know, brothers, about the grace of God that has been given among the churches of Macedonia, 2 for in a severe test of affliction, their abundance of joy and their extreme poverty have overflowed in a wealth of generosity on their part. 3 For they gave according to their means, as I can testify, and beyond their means, of their own accord, 4 begging us earnestly for the favor of taking part in the relief of the saints — 5 and this, not as we expected, but they gave themselves first to the Lord and then by the will of God to us.
弟兄们,我把 神赐给马其顿众教会的恩告诉你们2就是他们在患难中受大试炼的时候,仍有满足的快乐;在极穷之间,还格外显出他们乐捐的厚恩。3我可以证明:他们是按着力量,而且也过了力量,自己甘心乐意的捐助,4再三地求我们,准他们在这供给圣徒的恩情上有份。5并且他们所作的,不但照我们所想望的,更照神的旨意,先把自己献给主,又归附了我们。
TRUE BIBLICAL GIVING
圣经中真实的捐赠
The churches of Macedonia weren't rich in material things, but they sure were spiritually.
马其顿教会在物资上并不富有,但他们一定在灵魂中富有。
Let's look at how they gave:
我们来看一看他们如何捐赠:
Vs 1. They gave because God's love had been showed to them. Grace is undeserved favour and when you receive it, you will want to share it. Grace is meant to be shared.. amen. When showing grace, the other person may not deserve it, but you still give it.
他们捐赠是因为神的爱已经显示给他们。恩典是不应得的馈赠,当你接受了它,你就要分享它。恩典意味着分享..阿们。当你给他人恩惠,其他人或许不应得到它,但你仍要给。
Vs 2. They gave despite persecution. They were going through the mill, but had joy and that joy overflowed in their giving. Just because you are going through persecution, doesn't mean you become inward looking.
即便有烦扰他们仍会捐赠。他们经历磨炼但有喜乐,那喜乐通过他们的给予满溢出来。即便因你经历试炼,也不意味着可以冷漠。
Vs 3. They made sacrifices. They gave over and above what they had. They may have had to get rid of some object or possession that was precious to them. What precious object would you be willing to get rid of, to give generously? They didn't have to be told! Some Christians have to be forced to part with money. Are you one of them?
他们奉献,他们给予,超出他们所有。他们也许不得不放弃一些对他们而言很珍贵的物体和所有物。你愿意放弃什么珍贵的东西,慷慨捐赠呢?没有人告诉他们!一些基督徒不得不舍弃钱财,你是其中一份子吗?
Vs 4. There was a need and these believers were eager to meet that need. They actually begged Paul to let them be involved. How many believers beg to be put on the church's stewardship programme? How many believers want to be involved in supporting the work of the gospel? Do you have the same attitude that these believers had?
有了缺乏,这些信徒热切地弥补缺乏。他们甚至祈求保罗让他们参与其中。有多少信徒祈求参与教会管理事务呢?有多少信徒想要参与支持福音事工呢?你有这些使徒们所具有的态度吗?
Vs 5. Their first commitment was to the Lord and then to Paul, and therefore it was quite easy for them to part with their money. Where is our first commitment?
他们首先对神履行承诺,其次是保罗,因此对他们来说放弃钱财很简单。我们的首要承诺在哪里?
Remember God LOVES a cheerful giver!
切记神喜爱快乐给予!
Are you happy when you give to God's work and God's people?
当你对神的工作和神的人给予时,你快乐吗?
God bless you,
愿神祝福你

PSALM 66

16 Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.

诗篇66:16凡敬畏神的人,都来听我说,我要宣告他为我的灵魂所作的一切。



THE CHRISTIAN'S CLARION CALL 基督徒的号角



Salvation from sin and having a relationship with God is truly the most amazing thing that can happen to anyone. I know that becoming a child of God on 15th, February, 1975 was the defining moment of my life, and I know that becoming a Christian is also the defining moment of many who are reading this devotion.



从罪中解脱出来,与上帝建立关系,这真的是任何人都会遇到的最令人惊奇的事情。我知道1975年2月15日成为上帝的孩子是我生命中的决定性时刻,我知道成为基督徒也是许多正在阅读这篇灵修的人的决定性时刻。

One of the reasons we are to tell (testify) what God has done for us among his people, is that it encourages them to press on. There is something about hearing how another person came to faith or how another believer is growing in grace. It is amazing to our souls to hear these (Testimonies)things.

我们要告诉(作证)上帝在他的子民中为我们做了什么,其中一个原因是它鼓励他们坚持下去。这是关于听到另一个人是如何信仰的,或者另一个信徒是如何在恩典中成长的。听到这些(证词)让我们的灵魂感到惊奇。

We should always seek to encourage our fellow believers, by telling them, what blessings God has given us. We must share how God has opened up his word to us and spoken to us directly.

我们应该一直设法去鼓励我们的信徒,告诉他们上帝给了我们什么祝福。我们必须分享上帝是如何向我们敞开心扉并且直接对我们说话的。

When was the last time you encouraged people in your church or an individual brother or sister in faith, by telling them, what God has done for your soul?

你最后一次鼓励教会里的人或信仰上的兄弟姐妹,告诉他们上帝为你的灵魂做了什么是什么时候?

God has done so much for you.. share what He Has done for you.


上帝已经为你做了这么多,去分享他为你所做的一切吧。



Whilst you are about it.. tell the world, what He has done for your soul. Let the world know that Jesus has changed your life.

当你在谈论这件事时…告诉世界,他为你的灵魂做了什么。让世界知道耶稣改变了你的生活。

God bless you
上帝保佑你

PSALM 22

诗篇22

24 for he has not despised my cries of deep despair; he has not turned and walked away. When I cried to him, he heard and came.”

因为他没有藐视、憎恶受苦的人,也没有转脸不顾他们;那受苦之人呼求的时候,他就垂听。

HE HEARS BECAUSE HE KNOWS OUR PAIN

他听到是因他了解我们的痛苦。

This psalm is called the suffering servant psalm. It is probably the greatest prophecy about the death of our beloved Saviour.
这节诗篇被称作痛苦的仆人诗篇。它也许是关于我们所深爱的救主之死的最重要的预言。

Please read it and find all the prophecies about our Saviour.
请阅读并找到关于我们救主的所有预言。

What a verse we have in verse 24.
我们在24节看到了多么美妙的诗句啊
Jesus is our high priest.. he is the one who completely understands whatever trial, we are going through. In the book of Hebrews chapter 2 and 4 we have these words:
耶稣是我们的大祭司...他是那个完全理解任何试炼,理解我们所经历的那位。在希伯来书第2章和第4章中我们能看到这些诗句:

14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
儿女既同有血肉之体,他也照样亲自成了血肉之体,特要藉着死,败坏那掌死权的,就是魔鬼。

15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
并要释放那些一生因怕死而为奴仆的人。
16 For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.
他并不救拔天使,乃是救拔亚伯拉罕的后裔。

17 Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.
所以,他凡事该与他的弟兄相同,为要在神的事上成为慈悲忠信的大祭司,为百姓的罪献上挽回祭。

18 For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.
他自己既然被试探而受苦,就能搭救被试探的人。

14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
我们既然有一位已经升入高天尊荣的大祭司,就是神的儿子耶稣,便当持定所承认的道。

15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
因我们的大祭司并非不能体恤我们的软弱,他也曾凡事受过试探,与我们一样,只是他没有犯罪。

16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
所以我们只管坦然无惧地来到施恩的宝座前,为要得怜恤,蒙恩惠,作随时的帮助。

What Jesus experienced throughout his life, He faced and overcame every single temptation that we will ever face, and through his death and resurrection, he defeated sin and death and its power forever.
耶稣在他一生中所经历的一切,他面对和克服的每个试炼,我们都不会经历,通过他的死和复活,他战胜了罪和死亡以及它们永远的权力。

Let us go back to our text in Psalm 22, when we cry out to Him, he hears. Believer cry out to God; he will hear you. Your high priest will not walk away, he will come to you.

让我们回到诗篇22节,当我们呼求他,他就会听到,信徒呼求神,他会听到你的呼求。你的大祭司不会转脸不顾,他会垂听你。

He will do this, because he has been through everything you are going through.
他会这么做,因为他已经经历了你所经历的一切。

What a wonderful assurance this is and should be to us.
这是多么美妙的保证,这是针对我们的。

Cry out believer.. Jesus hears and understands and he will come to you
呼求吧信徒们...耶稣听到并了解,他会垂听你。

God bless you

上帝祝福你

PSALM 119

诗篇 119


103 How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

103 你的话语品尝起来何等甘甜,

在我口中胜过蜂蜜。


WHAT CAN YOU TASTE?

你能尝到什么?


My wife tells me that when I cook, I have to taste everything. As I often say, "how can you tell if food is cooked or not, unless you taste it first?"

我妻子对我说做饭的时候我必须品尝每样东西。 正如我常说的,“除非你先尝一尝,否则你怎么知道食物是否煮熟了?”


Honey is indeed sweet, and the people in the Bible used honey to sweeten a lot of their foods.

蜂蜜确实很甜,圣经中人们会用蜂蜜来使他们的食物变甜。


Here in this greatest and longest psalm, we have 176 verses that give praise to God for His Word. In verse 103, he says, “How sweet are thy words to my taste! Yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!"

这首最长最伟大的诗篇有 176 节经文赞美上帝的话语。 在第 103 节,他说:“你的话语品尝起来何等甘甜,

在我口中胜过蜂蜜!”


When we open the Word of God, how does it taste to you? Does it taste bitter or sweet?

当我们打开神的话语时,你觉得它的味道如何? 它尝起来是苦的还是甜的?


What the psalmist is trying to say here, is that above everything else, the Word of God is sweet to his soul, just like honey is sweet to his taste.

诗人在这里想说的是,最重要的是上帝的话语对他的灵魂来说是甜美的,就像蜂蜜一样。


In order for God’s Word to be sweet to us, we must develop our spiritual tastebuds. Before we came to Christ, we had a taste for the things of this world; as believers, the world should not taste the same. We have been changed. We love God’s Word, because we love God. We long to hear from Him, because we long to know more about Him, and how we can honour Him with our lives.

为了让上帝的话语对我们来说是甜美的,我们必须培养我们属灵的味蕾。 在我们归向基督之前,我们对这个世界的事物已经尝到了滋味; 但是已作信徒,世界不应该还是原来的味道。 我们已经改变了。 我们爱神的话语,因为我们爱神。 我们渴望听到他的声音,因为我们渴望更多地了解他,以及我们如何用我们的生命来荣耀他。


In Psalm 19, we have these words in Verses 8-10

在诗篇 19 中,我们看到在第 8-10 节中有这些话


8 The precepts of the Lord are right,

giving joy to the heart.

The commands of the Lord are radiant,

giving light to the eyes.

8耶和华的法则公正,

使人充满喜乐;

耶和华的命令纯全,

让人眼目明亮。

9 The fear of the Lord is pure,

enduring forever.

The decrees of the Lord are firm,

and all of them are righteous.

9要以纯洁的心敬畏耶和华,

直到永远;

耶和华的法令可靠,

全然公义。


10 They are more precious than gold,

than much pure gold;

they are sweeter than honey,

than honey from the honeycomb.

10这些比纯金还宝贵,

比蜂房的蜜更甘甜。



How sweet is the Word of God to you?

神的话对你有多甜美?

Is it a true delight in your life?

它是你生活中真正的乐趣吗?

Is it the sweetest thing in your life?

是你生命中最甜的蜜吗?


God bless you

上帝祝福你

PSALM 119:130

诗篇 119:130


130 The unfolding of your words gives light; it imparts understanding to the simple.

130你的话语一解明,

就发出亮光,

使愚人得到启迪。


UNFOLDING THE WORD

解明你的话语


In this passage, the English Standard Version uses the phrase, "unfolding the word."

在这段话中,英文标准版使用了短语 “unfolding the word”。


When we fold something, it gets smaller, when we unfold something like a sheet or a towel, it gets bigger and we can see the whole pattern of the sheet or towel.

当我们折叠东西时,它会变小,当我们展开像床单或毛巾这样的东西时,它会变大,我们可以看到床单或毛巾的整个图案。


When we unfold or open the sheet of the Word of God, we can see the greater picture; it's light shines in the darkness of our hearts, shedding light on those areas of our lives that please God, and those areas that need to be surrendered to Him.

当我们展开或打开神的话语时,我们可以看到更大的画面; 它的光照亮我们内心的黑暗,照亮我们生命中那些讨神喜悦的领域,以及那些需要降服于祂的领域。


MY favourite verse in this psalm is probably verse 105:

在这首诗篇中,我最喜欢的诗句可能是第 105 节:


Your word is a lamp to my feet

and a light to my path.

你的话是我脚前的灯,

是我路上的光。


So, unfold the word the Word of God; open it up and let its light shine into your life.

所以,展开神的话; 打开它,让它的光芒照进你的生活。


God bless you

上帝祝福你

请持续为我们祷告,倾听最下面的布道,并为国家和民族团体祷告。

Thanks for all your prayers, we need them.

To say both of us need them in an understatement, Our marriage is under severe and persistent attack from all sides.

Continue to pray for more students to come to class especially online.

Continue to pray for our two pastors, that they would be faithful to the word of God.

Please pray for China, every day twenty-five thousand people die in China, may every person in this country have the opportunity to hear and respond to the gospel.

Thanks for all your prayers, we need them.

To say both of us need them in an understatement, Our marriage is under severe and persistent attack from all sides.

PSALM 32

PSALM 32 VS 5-7

I acknowledged my sin to you,
and I did not cover my iniquity;
I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,”
and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah

6 Therefore let everyone who is godly
offer prayer to you at a time when you may be found;
surely in the rush of great waters,
they shall not reach him.
7 You are a hiding place for me;
you preserve me from trouble;
you surround me with shouts of deliverance. Selah

COME, CONFESS- DON'T COVER

We saw in verses 3-4, the pain that unconfessed sin causes the believer, his whole body is in agony, his/her spiritual life is in a mess.

To be in fellowship with God, we need to do certain things, we need to remember that first of all, when we fall, we have an advocate with the father 1 John 2;1-2.

We need to remember that we need to yield our members to Christ, so that sin becomes less and less in us. Romans chs 6-8

To acknowledge our sin, means to have the same attitude to sin that God has, sin is absolutely disgusting to God, it is us saying, yes, I have failed and now I think of sin as disgusting, it becomes an affront to me.

Acknowledging our sin, means coming to terms with ourselves and humbling ourselves, it means getting rid of all our pride and arrogance.

In Chapter 1 of the Book of 1 John, we are given a great treatise of sin and how to deal with it, covering sin, means we are not living in the light, but acknowledgement and confession means we are living in the light. In chapter 1 verse 9, we are given a great promise, but also a great command.

We need to come to the cross and confess, we don't have to be afraid, look at Adam and Eve in the garden, they hid themselves, letting sin go unconfessed leads to further trouble, one little sin leads to bigger sins and soon it is out of control.

We can come and confess, because God is a hiding place for us, he is our Father .. amen.

The invitation is there, God is your hiding place, don't hide your sin, go to the Father and make him your hiding place.

There is forgiveness, if you have fallen and let me tell you, you will

Come and confess.. don't cover your sin and iniquity.

God bless you

PSALM 32 VS 5-7

《诗篇32:5-7》

I acknowledged my sin to you,
and I did not cover my iniquity;
I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,”
and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah

我向你陈明我的罪、不隐瞒我的恶.我说、我要向耶和华承认我的过犯、你就赦免我的罪恶。〔细拉〕

6 Therefore let everyone who is godly
offer prayer to you at a time when you may be found;
surely in the rush of great waters,
they shall not reach him.

为此、凡虔诚人、都当趁你可寻找的时候祷告你.大水泛溢的时候、必不能到他那里。


7 You are a hiding place for me;
you preserve me from trouble;
you surround me with shouts of deliverance. Selah

你是我藏身之处.你必保佑我脱离苦难、以得救的乐歌、四面环绕我。〔细拉〕

COME, CONFESS- DON'T COVER

来忏悔吧,不要遮掩


We saw in verses 3-4, the pain that unconfessed sin causes the believer, his whole body is in agony, his/her spiritual life is in a mess.

我们在3-4节里读到,没有忏悔的罪带给信徒痛苦,他周身痛楚,灵命零乱。

To be in fellowship with God, we need to do certain things, we need to remember that first of all, when we fall, we have an advocate with the father 1 John 2;1-2.

为了与神同行,我们需有所为,首先记住:若有人犯罪、在父那里我们有一位中保、就是那义者耶稣基督.《约翰一书2:1-2》

We need to remember that we need to yield our members to Christ, so that sin becomes less and less in us. Romans chs 6-8

谨记我们需把自己献给基督,罪才会衰减。《罗马书6:13》


To acknowledge our sin, means to have the same attitude to sin that God has, sin is absolutely disgusting to God, it is us saying, yes, I have failed and now I think of sin as disgusting, it becomes an affront to me.

承认我们的罪,意味着拥有和上帝对待罪同样的态度,对上帝而言,罪绝对是让人厌恶的,老话说,我的确曾跌倒但如今视罪如冒犯我的仇敌。

Acknowledging our sin, means coming to terms with ourselves and humbling ourselves, it means getting rid of all our pride and arrogance.

承认我们的罪,意味着要面对自己,谦卑自己,摆脱我们所有的骄傲和傲慢。


In Chapter 1 of the Book of 1 John, we are given a great treatise of sin and how to deal with it, covering sin, means we are not living in the light, but acknowledgement and confession means we are living in the light. In chapter 1 verse 9, we are given a great promise, but also a great command.

《约翰一书》第一章谈到,我们罪恶累累,如何对待它呢?我们若说自己无罪、便是自欺、真理不在我们心里了。第九节给我们一个承诺,同时也是要求:我们若认自己的罪,神是信实的、是公义的,必要赦免我们的罪、洗净我们一切的不义。

We need to come to the cross and confess, we don't have to be afraid, look at Adam and Eve in the garden, they hid themselves, letting sin go unconfessed leads to further trouble, one little sin leads to bigger sins and soon it is out of control.

我们需来到十字架面前忏悔,不必害怕,看看伊甸园中的亚当和夏娃,他们掩藏自己未曾忏悔,导致罪孽更深,小罪沦为大罪,不久失控。


We can come and confess, because God is a hiding place for us, he is our Father .. amen.

我们可以来到十字架面前忏悔,因为上帝是我们的藏身之所,他是我们的天父,阿们!


The invitation is there, God is your hiding place, don't hide your sin, go to the Father and make him your hiding place.

上帝是你的藏身之所,他向你发出邀请,不要掩饰你的罪,走到天父面前,栖身此处吧。


There is forgiveness, if you have fallen and let me tell you, you will.

此处有原谅,如果你曾跌到,我告诉你,你会被原谅。


Come and confess.. don't cover your sin and iniquity.

来此处忏悔吧,不要掩饰你的罪愆。


God bless you

上帝保佑你!

PSALM 32

3 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.
4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah.








WHEN SILENCE IS NOT GOLDEN


There was a song many years ago, that was called Silence is golden, and indeed it is good that we keep quiet sometimes.


Being silent, when it comes to confessing sin is not golden though, for several reasons.

First of all, we can't hide things from God, he sees absolutely everything. Sometimes I do something and then the next time I read my bible, here is a verse or passage that puts its finger right on the point of my sin and the holy spirit convicts me and then I confess it and can be restored to full happiness and relationship with God.



We need to realise that to live in sin is to live in complete misery, Christians who live in sin and are trapped in unforgiveness are probably the most miserable people on earth, look at the state of David in verses 3-4, he was an emotional and physical wreck, he was roaring, he was totally out of control and worst of all the hand of the lord was heavy upon him.


If I have unconfessed sin in my life, then I am almost impossible to be around, until I come in repentance to the foot of the cross and humble myself under Gods mighty hand and confess it. Please read 1 John 1;1-2;2

PSALM 32

3 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.
4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah.

The joy of true communion with God is matchless, Christian, don't throw it away because you are stubborn and refuse to come to the throne of grace and seek forgiveness, there is a place of plenteous mercy ready and waiting for you.

Please read the rest of the Psalm and also psalm 51


Be like the man in verses 1-2, who is blessed because his sin is forgiven, but remember to be forgiven, you have to come and confess and then you can be clean.


God bless you

PSALM 32 《诗篇32》



3 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.

4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah.
3 我闭口不认罪的时候、因终日唉哼、而骨头枯干。

4 黑夜白日、你的手在我身上沉重.我的精液耗尽、如同夏天的干旱。细拉









WHEN SILENCE IS NOT GOLDEN

当沉默不再是金



There was a song many years ago, that was called Silence is golden, and indeed it is good that we keep quiet sometimes.

多年前有一首歌叫《沉默是金》,当然有时候我们保持沉默是对的。



Being silent, when it comes to confessing sin is not golden though, for several reasons.

但在应该认罪的时候沉默就不是金了,有如下几个原因。

First of all, we can't hide things from God, he sees absolutely everything. Sometimes I do something and then the next time I read my bible, here is a verse or passage that puts its finger right on the point of my sin and the holy spirit convicts me and then I confess it and can be restored to full happiness and relationship with God.

首先,我们不能对上帝隐瞒什么,他绝对能看到一切。有时我做了一些事情,然后在我下次读圣经的时候,某处有一节经文或段落,正好指着我的罪,圣灵就会给我定罪。只有当我就认罪了,才可以恢复与神的关系并得着全然的喜乐。





We need to realise that to live in sin is to live in complete misery, Christians who live in sin and are trapped in unforgiveness are probably the most miserable people on earth, look at the state of David in verses 3-4, he was an emotional and physical wreck, he was roaring, he was totally out of control and worst of all the hand of the lord was heavy upon him.



我们需要认识到,生活在罪中就是生活在完全的痛苦中,生活在罪中并不被赦免的基督徒可能是世界上最悲惨的人,看看3-4节中大卫的状态,他是一个情绪和身体都受损的人,他在咆哮,他完全失去了控制,最糟糕的是,耶和华的手在他身上很沉重。

If I have unconfessed sin in my life, then I am almost impossible to be around, until I come in repentance to the foot of the cross and humble myself under Gods mighty hand and confess it. Please read 1 John 1;1-2;2

如果我的生命中有未经承认的罪,那么我就会魂不守舍,除非我忏悔地走到十字架脚下,在上帝大能的手下谦卑并认罪。请阅读《约翰一书1:1-2;2》



The joy of true communion with God is matchless, Christian, don't throw it away because you are stubborn and refuse to come to the throne of grace and seek forgiveness, there is a place of plenteous mercy ready and waiting for you.

与神真正交流的喜悦是无以伦比的,基督徒,不要因为你顽固不化,拒绝来到施恩宝座前寻求宽恕而丢弃它,那里有一个丰盛的怜悯之地,已经准备好了等着你。

Please read the rest of the Psalm and also psalm 51

请阅读本篇的其余部分,也请阅读诗篇第51篇



Be like the man in verses 1-2, who is blessed because his sin is forgiven, but remember to be forgiven, you have to come and confess and then you can be clean.

要像第1-2节中的人一样,因为他的罪被赦免而蒙福,但记住要得到赦免,你必须忏悔,然后你才能被洁净。



God bless you

愿上帝保佑你!
