一粒麥子/A Grain of Wheat

主耶穌基督的救恩不是只為猶太人預備的，

是為撒瑪利亞人，

是為希臘人，是為所有的人。

主來是要叫人得生命，並且得的是更豐盛的，

如果我們想要有豐盛的人生，

必需效法主的榜樣，有謙卑虛己的心，

有願意犧牲奉獻的精神，

先捨身取義如主說的一粒麥子的比喻。

置之死地而後生，

這個死是放棄被私慾牽引，

只要我，我，我掌權的生命，

這個死是為要與主復活得永生，

從此讓主耶穌基督做我們心中的王，

讓神在我們生命掌權，

唯有心悅誠服地讓創造我們，

並且賜予我們生命的神掌權，

我們才真正能夠過上祂所為我們預備的豐盛人生。

我們都有選擇，是要做一粒什麼樣的麥子呢？

「有幾個希臘人也上耶路撒冷過節。 

他們找到了加利利的伯賽大人腓力，

請求說：「先生，我們想見見耶穌。」 腓力把這件事告訴安得烈 ，

二人去轉告耶穌。 耶穌說：「人子得榮耀的時候到了。 

我實實在在地告訴你們，

一粒麥子如果不落在地裡死了，仍是一粒，

如果死了，就會結出許多麥粒來。 

愛惜自己生命的，必會失掉生命；

憎惡自己今世生命的，才能保住生命，直到永生。 

誰要事奉我，就要跟從我。

我在哪裡，事奉我的人也要在哪裡。

我父必尊重事奉我的人。」

約翰福音 12:20-26 CCB

「無知的人哪，你所種的，若不死就不能生。」

哥林多前書 15:36 CUNP-神

「但記這些事要叫你們信耶穌是基督，是神的兒子，

並且叫你們信了他，就可以因他的名得生命。」

約翰福音 20:31 CUNP-神

The salvation of the Lord Jesus Christ is not just for the Jews.

It's for the Samaritans.

It's for the Greeks, it's for all mankind.

 The Lord Jesus Christ came that we may have life 

and have it abundantly.

 If we want to have an abundant life,

 we must follow the example of the Lord.

To have a humble heart and empty ourselves.

 To have the spirit of sacrifice and dedication.

 First, to sacrifice oneself to take righteousness, 

just like what the Lord said about a grain of wheat.

It has to be put in death and buried, so it can live multiplied.

 This death is to give up being led by selfish desires,

 that chases after me, me, me, that life is I'm in charge.

 This death is to be resurrected with the Lord for eternal life,

 From then on, let the Lord Jesus Christ be the king of our hearts.

 Let God reign in our lives.

 Only convincingly and whole heartily let The Lord who created us,

 and who gave us life in charge of our lives,

 We can truly live the abundant life He has in store for us.

 We all have a choice to make — 

which grain of wheat do we want to be?

“Now among those who went up to worship at the feast were some Greeks.

 So these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, 

and asked him, “Sir, we wish to see Jesus.” Philip went and told Andrew; 

Andrew and Philip went and told Jesus. And Jesus answered them, 

“The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. 

Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies,

 it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. 

Whoever loves his life loses it, 

and whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 

If anyone serves me, he must follow me; 

and where I am, there will my servant be also. 

If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.”

John 12:20-26 ESV

“You foolish person! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies.”

1 Corinthians 15:36 ESV

“but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, 

the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.”

John 20:31 ESV

和撒那/Hosanna

從棕枝主日開始到復活主日這一週被稱之為聖週。

主耶穌基督騎著驢駒進入了耶路撒冷，

人們呼喊著「和撒那」，原文是求救的意思，

但此時是稱頌主耶穌基督，

頗有眾人擁簇他為王，

期待主帶領猶太人來一場與羅馬帝國的聖戰，

期待脫離統治壓抑他們的羅馬帝國！

他們期待著被解救，被釋放。

他們呼喊著「和撒那，和撒那！」

「救救我們！救救我們！」

主耶穌基督的確是來拯救猶太人，

然而不只是猶太人，

乃是拯救世上所有的人。

他不是高高在上騎著馬要來動干戈，

他是神自己確降卑為人，

他來是帶來和平，使人與神之間和好。

藉著他背負我們虧缺神榮耀的一切罪過，

被釘十字架，死了，葬了，

勝過死亡權勢復活了，

完成了救恩，

只要我們相信並接受，

我們就從這罪中得救被釋放，

並且恢復與神和好的關係。

這都是主耶穌基督的愛與恩典。

「第二天，有許多上來過節的人聽見耶穌將到 耶路撒冷 ，

 就拿着棕樹枝出去迎接他，喊着說： 

和散那！ 奉主名來的 以色列 王是應當稱頌的！」

約翰福音 12:12-13 CUNP-神

「你若口裏認耶穌為主，心裏信神叫他從死裏復活，就必得救。」

羅馬書 10:9 CUNP-神

The week from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday is called Holy Week.

 The Lord Jesus Christ rode into Jerusalem on a donkey.

 People shouted “Hosanna”, which originally means “Save, rescue, savior”.

 But at this moment it meant to praising the Lord Jesus Christ.

 Quite a lot of people embraced him as king at his entrance to Jerusalem.

They were looking forward to the Lord leading the Jews

 to have a holy war against the Roman Empire.

 Looking forward to breaking away from the Roman Empire

 who suppressed them!

 They looked forward to being rescued and being set free.

 They shouted “Hosanna, Hosanna!”

 “Save us! Save us!”

 The Lord Jesus Christ did come to save the Jews,

 But it’s not just the Jews.

 He was here to save all in this world.

 He was not riding a horse arrogantly high above to fight the battle.

 Furthermore, he was God Himself who humbled himself as a man.

 Not only that, but he came to bring peace

 and reconciliation between man and God.

 Through him who bore all our sins of defying the glory of God.

 Crucified, died, and buried,

 then had victory over death and was resurrected.

 He completed the salvation.

 As long as we believe him and accept the salvation,

we are saved from the sin and are set free.

Our relationship with God is reconciled and restored.

 These are all because of the love and grace of Lord Jesus Christ.

“The next day the large crowd that had come to the feast

 heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. 

So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, 

crying out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord,

 even the King of Israel!””

John 12:12-13 ESV

“because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord

 and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead,

 you will be saved.”

Romans 10:9 ESV

唯一/The One and Only

棕枝主日為主耶穌基督上十字架的受難揭開了序幕，

在我們預備迎接復活節主日時，

讓我們重新調整自己的心思意念，

單單專注在主耶穌基督身上。

求神鑒察我們，潔淨我們一切隱而未現的罪，

引導我們清楚明白什麼是我們的當前之務，

求神將生命的道路指示我們，

讓我們每一天更加親近主，也更像主，

使我們在神面前有滿足的喜樂。

讓我們更愛主，要定睛仰望主。

因祂是我們得到永生的唯一途徑。

“耶穌進了神的殿，趕出殿裏一切做買賣的人，

推倒兌換銀錢之人的桌子，和賣鴿子之人的凳子，

 對他們說：「 經上記着說：

 我的殿必稱為禱告的殿，

 你們倒使它成為賊窩了。」

 在殿裏有瞎子、瘸子到耶穌跟前，他就治好了他們。

 祭司長和文士看見耶穌所行的奇事，

又見小孩子在殿裏喊着說：

「和散那歸於大衛的子孫！」

就甚惱怒，”

馬太福音 21:12-15

“祢必將生命的道路指示我。

 在祢面前有滿足的喜樂； 

在祢右手中有永遠的福樂。”

詩篇 16:11

“耶穌說：「我就是道路、真理、生命；

若不藉着我，沒有人能到父那裏去。”

約翰福音 14:6

The Palm Sunday opens up the curtains

 to unveil the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.

As we prepare to welcome the Easter Sunday,

let us re-adjust our thoughts to

focusing solely on the Lord Jesus Christ.

May the Lord search us, and cleanse us from all our hidden sins.

May the Lord guide us to understand clearly what our priority is.

May the Lord show us the path of life.

Let us grow closer to the Lord 

and be more like Him each and every day.

So that we have fullness of joy in the presence of Him.

Let us love the Lord more, and look up to him.

For he is our only key to eternal life.

“And Jesus entered the temple 

and drove out all who sold and bought in the temple,

 and he overturned the tables of the money-changers 

and the seats of those who sold pigeons.

 He said to them, “It is written, 

‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’

 but you make it a den of robbers.”

 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple,

 and he healed them. 

But when the chief priests and the scribes saw

 the wonderful things that he did, 

and the children crying out in the temple,

 “Hosanna to the Son of David!” 

they were indignant,”

Matthew 21:12-15 ESV

“You make known to me the path of life;

 in your presence there is fullness of joy;

 at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”

Psalm 16:11 ESV

“Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life.

 No one comes to the Father except through me.”

John 14:6 ESV

迎接他/Welcome Him

復活主日之前的一個禮拜天被稱為棕櫚主日

（又譯為棕枝主日或聖枝主日）。

主要是紀念主耶穌騎著驢駒進入耶路撒冷，

信徒們沿路鋪了衣服及棕櫚枝葉，

舉著棕枝搖動並歡呼，如同迎接君王般迎接他。

許多教堂會在這個主日以棕櫚枝葉來佈置會堂，

或發給眾信徒作為提醒與紀念。

讓我們一起迎接主耶穌基督在我們生命中掌權，

真正是我們心中的主，是我們生命的王。

不是今天歡呼他為王，明天卻置他於死地。

不是一時興起，而是每一天的信實擁戴。

“門徒就照耶穌所吩咐的去行， 牽了驢和驢駒來，

把自己的衣服搭在上面，耶穌就騎上。 

眾人多半把衣服鋪在路上；還有人砍下樹枝來鋪在路上。 

前行後隨的眾人喊着說： 和散那歸於大衛的子孫！ 

奉主名來的是應當稱頌的！ 高高在上和散那！ 

耶穌既進了耶路撒冷 ，合城都驚動了，說：「這是誰？」

 眾人說：「這是加利利拿撒勒的先知耶穌。」”

馬太福音 21:6-11 CUNP-神

“第二天，有許多上來過節的人聽見耶穌將到耶路撒冷 ， 

就拿着棕樹枝出去迎接他，喊着說： 和散那！ 

奉主名來的以色列王是應當稱頌的！ 

耶穌得了一個驢駒，就騎上，

如經上所記的說： 錫安的民哪，不要懼怕！ 

你的王騎着驢駒來了。 這些事門徒起先不明白，

等到耶穌得了榮耀以後才想起這話是指着他寫的，

並且眾人果然向他這樣行了。

 當耶穌呼喚拉撒路，叫他從死復活出墳墓的時候，

同耶穌在那裏的眾人就作見證。 

眾人因聽見耶穌行了這神蹟，就去迎接他。”

約翰福音 12:12-18 CUNP-神

The Sunday before the Resurrection Sunday is called Palm Sunday.

 Mainly to commemorate when our Lord Jesus

 rode into Jerusalem on a donkey,

 the believers spread their cloaks and palm branches along the road.

They were holding the palm branches, waving and cheering, 

and welcomed him like a king.

 Many churches decorate their church

 with palm branches on this Sunday;

 or give them to their congregation as a reminder and remembrance.

 Let us welcome the Lord Jesus Christ to reign in our lives.

 Let him truly be the Lord in our hearts, and the king of our lives,

not just a whim for one day, but faithfulness each and every day.

“The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them.

 They brought the donkey and the colt and put on them their cloaks, 

and he sat on them. Most of the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, 

and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. 

And the crowds that went before him and that followed him were shouting, 

“Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes

 in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!” 

And when he entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred up,

 saying, “Who is this?” And the crowds said,

 “This is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.””

Matthew 21:6-11 ESV

“The next day the large crowd that had come to the feast heard that

 Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. So they took branches of palm trees

 and went out to meet him, crying out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he

 who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!” 

And Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, just as it is written, 

“Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your king is coming, 

sitting on a donkey’s colt!” His disciples did not understand these things at first, 

but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered

 that these things had been written about him and had been done to him.

 The crowd that had been with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb

 and raised him from the dead continued to bear witness. 

The reason why the crowd went to meet him was that

 they heard he had done this sign.”

John 12:12-18 ESV

大齋期/Lent

復活節主日之前四十天是所謂的「大齋期」，

紀念主耶穌基督在開始他傳道事工前，曾在曠野禁食四十天受試探。

信徒在這四十天也專注在靈修，禁食，禱告及反省悔改。

（禁食這一部份可以依個人健康狀況在食物上的節制，

主要意義是在於專注在屬靈的事情，而非肉體的事情上。）

這個大齋期的傳統有其意義，

然而，我們要思考一下，

捫心自問這豈不是我們日常該做的嗎？

「當時，耶穌被聖靈引到曠野，受魔鬼的試探。 

他禁食四十晝夜，後來就餓了。 

那試探人的進前來，

對他說：「你若是神的兒子，可以吩咐這些石頭變成食物。」 

耶穌卻回答說：「 經上記着說： 人活着，不是單靠食物， 

乃是靠神口裏所出的一切話。」 

魔鬼就帶他進了聖城，叫他站在殿頂 上，

 對他說：「你若是神的兒子，可以跳下去，

因為經上記着說： 主要為你吩咐祂的使者用手托着你， 

免得你的腳碰在石頭上。」 

耶穌對他說：「 經上又記着說：『不可試探主－你的神。』」

 魔鬼又帶他上了一座最高的山，

將世上的萬國與萬國的榮華都指給他看，

 對他說：「你若俯伏拜我，我就把這一切都賜給你。」 

耶穌說：「撒但 ，退去吧！

因為經上記着說： 當拜主－你的神， 單要事奉祂。」

 於是，魔鬼離了耶穌，有天使來伺候他。」

馬太福音 4:1-11 CUNP-神

Forty days before Easter Sunday is the so-called " Lent".

 It is to commemorate the Lord Jesus Christ who fasted and 

overcame the 40 days of temptations in the wilderness

 before starting his ministry.

 Believers also focus on spiritual practice,

 fasting, prayer, reflection and repentance during these forty days.

 (This part of fasting is Okay to be based on 

the temperance of personal health in food,

 The main meaning is to focus on spiritual things

 rather than physical things.  )

 This Lent tradition has its meaning.

 However, we have to contemplate,

and ask ourselves “Aren’t these what we should do every day?”

“Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness

 to be tempted by the devil. And after fasting forty days and forty nights, 

he was hungry. And the tempter came and said to him, 

“If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread.” 

But he answered, “It is written, “‘Man shall not live by bread alone,

 but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’” 

Then the devil took him to the holy city and set him

 on the pinnacle of the temple and said to him, “If you are the Son of God,

 throw yourself down, for it is written,

 “‘He will command his angels concerning you,’ 

and “‘On their hands they will bear you up,

 lest you strike your foot against a stone.’” 

Jesus said to him, “Again it is written, ‘You shall not put the Lord your God

 to the test.’” Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain

 and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.

 And he said to him, “All these I will give you,

 if you will fall down and worship me.” 

Then Jesus said to him, “Be gone, Satan!

 For it is written, “‘You shall worship the Lord your God 

and him only shall you serve.’” 

Then the devil left him, and behold, 

angels came and were ministering to him.”

Matthew 4:1-11 ESV
