圣经故事:福音临到帖撒罗尼迦

保罗和西拉在帖撒罗尼迦讲道才几周,就被敌人赶出了城(使徒行传 17 章),因此,他 们没能完整地培训新信主的人。保罗写了帖撒罗尼迦前后书来回答这些新信徒的问题,

最大疑问中的一个是关于耶稣第二次再来,帖撒罗尼迦前书里,每一章都提到了这个话

题,保罗就写信澄清他们对耶稣再来的理解。

The Biblical Story: The Gospel Comes to Thessalonica

After Paul and Silas had preached for only a few weeks in Thessalonica, enemies drove them out of the city (Acts 17). Because of this, they had not been able to fully disciple the new converts. Paul wrote 1 and 2 Thessalonians to answer questions for these new believers. One of the biggest questions concerned the second coming of Jesus. Every chapter of 1 Thessalonians mentions this topic. Paul wrote to clarify their understanding of Jesus’ return.

在帖前 4-5 章,保罗列出了一个信徒必须服从的命令的长单子,只有藉着神的大能我们才能 够服从这些命令。请记住,无论何时,神命令何事,祂的大能都让顺服成为可能。

In 1 Thessalonians 4-5, Paul gives a long list of commands for believers. We can obey these commands only through God’s power. Remember that whenever God commands something, His power makes obedience possible.

After receiving Paul’s first letter, some people in Thessalonica decided that since Jesus is returning, there was no need to work, or plan for the future. Paul wrote a second letter to encourage these Christians to live faithful lives while waiting for the Lord’s return.

对每个信徒奇妙的应许,是有這个确据:神正在教会中实现祂的旨意 (帖后 1:3-4)。神正 在增长我们的信心、爱心和坚忍。 我们可以信任,祂会按照祂的形象塑造我们。

哥林多教会面临很多问题:结党分裂,道德败坏和信徒间的诉讼。保罗对比了两种解决 教会问题的方法:人的智慧或是神的智慧,哥林多前书显示,神处理教会问题的计划。

The Biblical Story: Paul’s Message to the Church at Corinth

The church at Corinth suffered from division, immorality, and lawsuits between believers. Paul contrasted two ways to deal with church problems: the wisdom of man or the wisdom of God. 1 Corinthians shows God’s plan for dealing with problems in the church.

在哥林多前书 2:1-16,保罗写道,神向每个信徒显明了祂的真理,只有圣灵能够向我们显明 圣经的全部真理。在每天读经之前,请祷告:神啊,祢今天想要教导我什么?请打开我的眼 睛来读祢的话语。

In 1 Corinthians 2:1-16, Paul shows that God reveals His truth to each believer. Only the Holy Spirit can reveal to us the full truth of Scripture. Before reading the Bible each day, pray, “God, what do you want to teach me today? Please open my eyes to your Word.”

The gospel is bigger than “accepting Christ and going to heaven.” That is part of the good news, but there is more. When we become God’s child, it changes our entire way of living. In these chapters, we see the practical application of the gospel. Paul shows that the church is called to live under the authority of Jesus Christ in every area.

哥林多前书 6:19-20 的原则必须成为每个基督徒生活的指南。我们不属于自己;我们已经被 神买赎回来了,所以,我们必须以一种能给神带来荣耀和尊荣的方式生活。

The principle of 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 must guide the life of every Christian. We do not belong to ourselves; we have been “bought” by God. Because of this, we must live in a way that brings glory and honor to God.

圣经故事:福音传到罗马

保罗在哥林多讲道时,给罗马信徒写了信,为他来到这个都城做准备。尽管这本书里有很 深奥的神学理论,但并不复杂。这是一本实用的书:它教导怎样在每天的实践中应用我们

的信仰。我们可以把全书总结成两部分:

The Biblical Story: The Gospel Comes to Rome

While Paul was preaching in Corinth, he wrote Romans as preparation for a visit to this capital city. Although this book contains profound theology, it is not a complicated book. This is a practical book: it teaches how to apply our beliefs in daily practice. We can summarize this book in two big sections:

罗马书 1-11 神在我们身上所做的:祂让我们从罪转向义。

罗马书 12-16 作为神的子民,我们怎样生活:靠着神的大能,我们过义人的生活。

Romans 1-11 – What God has done in us: He has turned us from sin to righteousness. Romans 12-16 – How we live as God’s people: We live righteous lives through God’s power. 罗马书 1:16-17 是整本书的基础。这是神的伟大应许:借着基督,神把救恩给了所有信祂的

人,无论是犹太人还是希腊人。

In Romans 12-16, Paul shows how we live as God’s people: we present ourselves as a living sacrifice. God does more than “count us righteous.” He transforms us to live in a new way. This transformation begins with a willing sacrifice of ourselves to God (12:1-2).

的旨意 。想象一下保罗,一个希伯来人中的希伯来人,当他听到神的呼召向外邦人传道时, 也许这对一个忠心遵守犹太传统的法利赛人,似乎是不可能的事。但保罗将自己的意志向神的 呼召降服,把福音带给外邦人,好让他们从黑暗中归向光明(徒 26:18)。

Paul lived with God’s purposes at the center of his life. This is God’s call to the church: to find and fulfill His purpose for every believer. Imagine Paul, a “Hebrew of the Hebrews,” when he heard God’s call to preach to the Gentiles. Perhaps this seemed impossible to a faithful Pharisee who obeyed all the Jewish traditions. But Paul surrendered his will to God who was calling him to bring the gospel to the Gentiles “so that they may turn from darkness to light” (Acts 26:18).

几乎 2000 年之后,仍有很多人生活在黑暗之中,他们之中有我们的邻舍、同事和朋友。你会 顺从神的呼召,把福音带给你身边那些在黑暗中的人吗?

到达罗马。神通过保罗被捕和下监, 成就了祂的旨意。即使是在软禁期间,保罗传讲神国的 道……并没有人禁止(徒 28:31)。借着保罗的被捕,神把福音带到了罗马。

Last week, we read about Paul’s desire to preach in Rome. He assumed he would travel there as an evangelist. Instead, Paul arrived in Rome as a prisoner. God achieved His purpose through Paul’s arrest and imprisonment. Even under house arrest, Paul was “proclaiming the kingdom of God… without hindrance” (Acts 28:31). Through Paul’s arrest, God brought the gospel to Rome.

我们要读以下的四本书称为监狱书信。读这些信件时,请记得保罗写信的时候,是和一个罗 马士兵铐在一起,而且面对可能的死刑判决。

The Biblical Story: Paul as a Prisoner

The next four books we will read are called the Prison Epistles. As you read these letters, remember that they were written while Paul was chained to a Roman guard and facing a possible death sentence.

当我们读新约时,我们一直在问,神在做什么?” “教会被呼召做什么?腓立比书给出了一个 非常让人吃惊的答案:

As we read the New Testament, we have been asking, “What is God doing?” and “What is the church called to do?” Philippians gives a very surprising answer to these questions:

根据腓立比书,教会被呼召要在喜乐中生活 。因着这封信的情境,这个答案令人惊奇。信的作 者正面临可能的死刑,这可不是什么开心的事!收信人,腓立比的基督徒,正在遭受逼迫,这 也不是快乐的处境!

According to Philippians, the church is called to live in joy. This answer is surprising because of the circumstances of the letter. The author faces a possible death sentence– not a happy event! The recipients, Christians in Philippi, are suffering persecution – not a happy circumstance!

在这样的情况下,谁能找到喜乐?根据腓立比书,神是我们喜乐的泉源 。在困境中,腓立比书 说,靠主常常喜乐(腓 4:4)。保罗能够喜乐,因为他的喜乐不是在情境中,而是在主里。

In this situation, who can they find joy? According to Philippians, God is the source of our joy. In a very difficult situation, Philippians says, “Rejoice in the Lord always” (Phil 4:4). Paul can rejoice because his joy is found not in circumstances but in the Lord.

读腓立比书时,划出喜乐欢喜,然后问一问,即使在所面临的困境中,我怎样能找到喜 乐?当我把目光集中在基督而不是我的环境时,我就可以找到喜乐。

As you read Philippians, highlight the words “joy” and “rejoice.” Then ask, “How I can find joy even in the difficult circumstances I face?” I can find joy when I keep my focus on Christ, not on my situation.

As you read Ephesians 1, highlight the phrases “in Christ,” “in him,” “in the beloved,” or related words. The blessings we receive as believers come because we are part of Christ’s body. In Ephesians 2:1-10, Paul shows the great change that comes when we are born again. Though we deserved wrath, God, “being rich in mercy” raised us with Christ. We have received mercy instead of judgment. We are alive instead of being dead in our sins. Because of this change, we can live the new life Paul describes in Ephesians 4-6.

师怎样带领教会。读的时候,要了解你们牧师肩负的沉重责任, 在他带领我们教会的时候, 为他祷告。

The Biblical Story: The Pastoral Letters

Titus and 1&2 Timothy are called “the Pastoral Letters.” Paul was writing to his former students who are now pastors. He assigned Titus to oversee the churches on the island of Crete and assigned Timothy to pastor the church in Ephesus. These letters taught these young pastors how to lead the church. As you read, understand the heavy responsibility your pastor carries. Pray for him as he leads our church.

因着神的伟大恩典,我们会有能力按照神呼召我们的方式生活。克里特人有着出名的坏品性

(多 1:12-13),但因着神的恩典,他们可以过敬虔和平的生活。因着神的转化恩典,提多书 2-

3 章中的教导成为可能。读提多书第 2 章中基督徒生命中应有的素质时,求神帮助你在这些方 面成长成熟。

Because of God’s great grace, we have the power to live as God calls us to live. The people who lived in Crete were known for their bad character (1:12-13). But because of God’s grace, they can now live godly, peaceable lives. The instructions in Titus 2-3 are possible because of God’s transforming grace.

How will you be faithful? You must “train yourself for godliness” (1 Tim 4:7). You must “fight the good fight of faith” (1 Tim 6:12). Are you training for godliness through Scripture reading and memorization, prayer, church attendance, and obedience to God’s commands?
