今天的分享請大家讀約翰福音第五章，主耶穌對想要迫害祂的猶太人說明祂是誰，這裏說的非常清楚，不只是祂聲稱自己是誰，並且提出多方見證，人們的選擇就在於信與不信了。我選擇相信。
「這些事以後，到了 猶太 人的一個節期，耶穌上 耶路撒冷 去。 在 耶路撒冷 ，靠近 羊門 有一個池子， 希伯來 話叫 畢士大 ，旁邊有五個柱廊； 裏面躺著許多病人，有失明的、瘸腿的、癱瘓的 。
在那裏有一個人，病了三十八年。 耶穌看見他躺著，知道他病了很久，就問他：「你要痊癒嗎？」 病人回答他：「先生，水動的時候，沒有人把我放在池子裏；我正要去的時候，別人比我先下去了。」 耶穌對他說：「起來，拿起你的褥子走吧！」 那人立刻痊癒，就拿起自己的褥子走了。 那天是安息日， 所以 猶太 人對那被治好了的人說：「今天是安息日，你拿褥子是不合法的。」 他卻回答他們：「那使我痊癒的人對我說：『拿起你的褥子走吧！』」 他們問他：「對你說『拿起褥子走』的是甚麼人？」 那治好了的人不知道那人是誰，因為那裏人很多，耶穌已經躲開了。
後來耶穌在聖殿裏找到他，對他說：「你已經痊癒了，不要再犯罪，免得你的遭遇更壞。」 那人就去告訴 猶太 人，使他痊癒的是耶穌。 所以 猶太 人迫害耶穌，因為他在安息日做了這些事。 耶穌就回答他們：「我父做事直到如今，我也做事。」 為了這緣故， 猶太 人越發想要殺他，因為他不但犯了安息日，而且稱上帝為他的父，把自己和上帝看為同等。
於是耶穌回答，對他們說：「我實實在在地告訴你們，子憑著自己不能做甚麼，惟有看見父所做的，他才做；父所做的事，子也照樣做。 父愛子，將自己所做的一切事指示給他看，還要將比這更大的事給他看，使你們驚訝。 父怎樣叫死人復活，賜他們生命，子也照樣隨自己的意願賜人生命。 父不審判任何人，而是把審判的事全交給子， 為要使人都尊敬子，如同尊敬父一樣。不尊敬子的，就是不尊敬差子來的父。
「我實實在在地告訴你們，那聽我話又信差我來那位的，就有永生，不至於被定罪，而是已經出死入生了。 我實實在在地告訴你們，時候將到，現在就是了，死人要聽見上帝兒子的聲音，聽見的人就要活了。 因為父怎樣自己裏面有生命，也照樣賜給他兒子自己裏面有生命， 並且賜給他施行審判的權柄，因為他是人子。 你們不要對這事感到驚訝，因為時候將到，凡在墳墓裏的，都要聽見他的聲音， 並且要出來：行善的，復活得生命；作惡的，復活被定罪。 「我憑著自己不能做甚麼。我怎麼聽見就怎麼審判，而我的審判是公平的，因為我不尋求自己的意願，只尋求差我來那位的旨意。」
「我若為自己作見證，我的見證就不真。 另有一位為我作見證，我也知道他為我作的見證是真的。 你們曾差人到 約翰 那裏，他為真理作過見證。 其實，我所受的見證不是從人來的；然而，我說這些話是為了使你們得救。 約翰 是點亮的明燈，你們情願因他的光歡欣一時。 但我有比 約翰 更大的見證：父交給我去完成的工作，就是我正在做的，為我作證是父差遣了我。 那差我來的父也為我作了見證。你們從來沒有聽見他的聲音，也沒有看見他的形像。 你們並沒有他的道存在心裏，因為你們不信他所差來的那一位。
你們查考聖經，因你們以為其中有永生；而這經正是為我作見證的。 然而，你們不肯到我這裏來得生命。 「我不接受從人來的榮耀， 但我知道，你們沒有愛上帝的心。 我奉我父的名來了，你們並不接納我；若有別人奉自己的名來，你們倒會接納他。 你們互相受榮耀，卻不尋求從獨一上帝來的榮耀，怎能信我呢？ 不要以為我會在父面前告你們；有一位告你們的，就是你們所仰望的 摩西 。 如果你們信 摩西 ，也會信我，因為他寫過關於我的事。 你們若不信他的書，怎能信我的話呢？」」約翰福音 5:1-3, 5-47 RCUV
Please read Chapter 5 of Book of John. The Lord Jesus explained who He is to the Jews who wanted to persecute Him. What he said here is very clear. He has not only claimed who he is , but he has provided witnesses. People’s choice is to believe or not to. I chose to believe.
“After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, in Aramaic called Bethesda, which has five roofed colonnades. In these lay a multitude of invalids—blind, lame, and paralyzed.
One man was there who had been an invalid for thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had already been there a long time, he said to him, “Do you want to be healed?” The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, and while I am going another steps down before me.” Jesus said to him, “Get up, take up your bed, and walk.” And at once the man was healed, and he took up his bed and walked. Now that day was the Sabbath. So the Jews said to the man who had been healed, “It is the Sabbath, and it is not lawful for you to take up your bed.” But he answered them, “The man who healed me, that man said to me, ‘Take up your bed, and walk.’ ” They asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Take up your bed and walk’?” Now the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, as there was a crowd in the place.
Afterward Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, “See, you are well! Sin no more, that nothing worse may happen to you.” The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had healed him. And this was why the Jews were persecuting Jesus, because he was doing these things on the Sabbath. But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.” This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, that the Son does likewise. For the Father loves the Son and shows him all that he himself is doing. And greater works than these will he show him, so that you may marvel. For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom he will. For the Father judges no one, but has given all judgment to the Son, that all may honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.
Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life. “Truly, truly, I say to you, an hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself. And he has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man. Do not marvel at this, for an hour is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment. “I can do nothing on my own. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me.
If I alone bear witness about myself, my testimony is not true. There is another who bears witness about me, and I know that the testimony that he bears about me is true. You sent to John, and he has borne witness to the truth. Not that the testimony that I receive is from man, but I say these things so that you may be saved. He was a burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light. But the testimony that I have is greater than that of John. For the works that the Father has given me to accomplish, the very works that I am doing, bear witness about me that the Father has sent me. And the Father who sent me has himself borne witness about me. His voice you have never heard, his form you have never seen, and you do not have his word abiding in you, for you do not believe the one whom he has sent.
You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me, yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life. I do not receive glory from people. But I know that you do not have the love of God within you. I have come in my Father’s name, and you do not receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him. How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God? Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you: Moses, on whom you have set your hope. For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote of me. But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?””John 5:1-3, 5-47 ESV
