我們需要建立對上帝的信心。 我們需要對祂的話語建立信心。 而且，我們需要在地球和永恆中建立對未來的信心。 但是，這種信心並不在於我們自己； 它不是基於我們的才智，聰明或才華。 它是基於神的能力，祂的應許，祂的供應和祂的恩典。 在這一生中，有很多事情我們無能為力。 在這種情況下，我們需要能夠將它交在主手中。 對我們來說是不可能的，在上帝卻是凡事都能。 但是，這需要信心。 困惑並不能消除困惑。

「哈利路亞！ 敬畏耶和華，甚喜愛他命令的， 這人有福了！」詩篇 112:1 RCUV

「他不懼怕兇惡的信息， 他的心堅定，倚靠耶和華。」詩篇 112:7 RCUV

「你們中間若有缺少智慧的，該求那厚賜與眾人又不斥責人的上帝，上帝必賜給他。 只要憑著信心求，一點也不疑惑；因為那疑惑的人，就像海中的波浪被風吹動翻騰。 這樣的人不要想從主那裏得到甚麼。 三心二意的人，在他一切所行的路上都搖擺不定。」雅各書 1:5-8 RCUV

「信就是所望之事的實底，是未見之事的確據。」希伯來書 11:1 CUNP-神

We need to develop faith in God. We need to develop confidence in His Word. And, we need to develop confidence in our future – both on this earth and in eternity. But, this confidence isn’t in ourselves; it is not based on our intelligence, or our cleverness, or our talents and abilities. It is based on God’s power, His promises, His provisions, and His grace. There are a lot of things in this life over which we are powerless. In those situations we need to be able to leave it in the Lord’s hands. What is impossible for us, is possible with God. But, this takes faith. Confusion just doesn’t cut it. 

“Praise the Lord! Blessed is the man who fears the Lord, who greatly delights in his commandments!” Psalm 112:1 ESV

“He is not afraid of bad news; his heart is firm, trusting in the Lord.” Psalm 112:7 ESV

“If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.”

James 1:5-8 ESV

“Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.”Hebrews 11:1 ESV

關於假福音是邪惡的教導，是對耶穌基督是誰不實的訊息，是謊言充斥，扭曲真理。我們要如何分辨什麼是正確的聖經福音的教導呢？使徒保羅在哥羅西書指出正確的教導是在宣揚耶穌。如果教導是專注在耶穌身上，並有上帝的話作為根據，那必然是正確的教導。耶穌就是基督，就是彌賽亞，神的獨生愛子，他是道路，真理，和生命，除他以外別無拯救，除非是藉著他，不然沒有人可以到父那裡，只有他是基督，沒有其他基督了。

「我們在愛子裏得蒙救贖，罪過得以赦免。 愛子是那不能看見之神的像，是首生的，在一切被造的以先。 因為萬有都是靠他造的，無論是天上的，地上的；能看見的，不能看見的；或是有位的，主治的，執政的，掌權的；一概都是藉着他造的，又是為他造的。 他在萬有之先；萬有也靠他而立。 他也是教會全體之首。他是元始，是從死裏首先復生的，使他可以在凡事上居首位。 因為 父 喜歡叫一切的豐盛在他裏面居住。 既然藉着他在十字架上所流的血成就了和平，便藉着他叫萬有－無論是地上的、天上的－都與自己和好了。」歌羅西書 1:14-20

「只要你們在所信的道上恆心，根基穩固，堅定不移，不致被引動失去 福音的盼望。這福音就是你們所聽過的，也是傳與普天下萬人聽的 ，我－ 保羅 也作了這福音的執事。」歌羅西書 1:23

「我們傳揚他，是用諸般的智慧，勸戒各人，教導各人，要把各人在基督裏完完全全地引到神面前。」歌羅西書 1:28

The teaching of a false gospel is evil. It is false information about who Jesus Christ is, it is filled with lies, and it distorts the truth.  How can we tell what is the correct teaching of the biblical gospel?  The apostle Paul pointed out in Colossians that the correct teaching is preaching Jesus.  If the teaching is focused on Jesus, and is based on the Word of God, then it must be the correct teaching.  Jesus is the Christ (the Messiah), the Son of God, and there is no salvation except through him. He is the way, he is the truth, and he is the life, no one can come to God the Father except through Jesus Christ, there is no other Christ.

“For he has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of his dear Son, who purchased our freedom and forgave our sins. Christ is the visible image of the invisible God. He existed before anything was created and is supreme over all creation, for through him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see— such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through him and for him. He existed before anything else, and he holds all creation together. Christ is also the head of the church, which is his body. He is the beginning, supreme over all who rise from the dead. So he is first in everything. For God in all his fullness was pleased to live in Christ, and through him God reconciled everything to himself. He made peace with everything in heaven and on earth by means of Christ’s blood on the cross.” Colossians 1:13-20 NLT

“But you must continue to believe this truth and stand firmly in it. Don’t drift away from the assurance you received when you heard the Good News. The Good News has been preached all over the world, and I, Paul, have been appointed as God’s servant to proclaim it.” Colossians 1:23NLT

“So we tell others about Christ, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all the wisdom God has given us. We want to present them to God, perfect in their relationship to Christ.”

Colossians 1:28 NLT

無意中在油管看到了一個台韓混血兒的影片，一家五口相處得和樂融融，特別是他的母親和孩子之間的互動，感覺得到是因為她愛的付出與教導，所以三個兒子對她也是滿滿的愛，實在令人欣羨。原來這位母親是當年為愛遠赴南韓與脱北的柔道國家隊選手結為連理的台灣選手陳鈴真。這讓我感到一個妻子/母親在家中的角色舉足輕重，不是讓這個家更鞏固就是更分散。誠如箴言十四章第一節說的：「智慧婦人，建立家室；愚妄婦人，親手拆毀。」，一般人尚且如此，何況是屬神的姊妹們，我們更要以神的智慧來建立我們的家庭。

「才德的婦人誰能得着呢？ 她的價值遠勝過珍珠。 她丈夫心裏倚靠她， 必不缺少利益； 她一生使丈夫有益無損。」箴言 31:10-12 CUNP-神

「她的兒女起來稱她有福； 她的丈夫也稱讚她，」箴言 31:28 CUNP-神

I saw a film about a young man who had a Taiwanese mother and a Korean father on Youtube. He had two brothers and the family of five got along well. The interaction between his mother and her children was special. I felt that it was because of her love and teaching that her three sons treated her with so much love.  It is really enviable.  It turned out that both his mother and father competed in Judo. His mother was Chen Lingzhen, and she married a North Korea Judo national team member who had escaped from North Korea to South Korea.  This makes me realize that the mother’s role in a family is very important; she either makes the family more solid or more scattered.  As stated in Proverbs14:1: "“A wise woman builds up her home, but a foolish woman tears it down with her own hands.”  This is the case for everyone, but especially for sisters in Christ; we must build up our homes with God’s wisdom.

“A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.”Proverbs 31:10-12 NIV

Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:」

神是智慧的源頭，然而一個人是否得著智慧在於他/她是否虛心謙卑受教。一個人受教與否與他/她的態度有極大的關係，褻慢的人得不到智慧，因為他們態度不單單是傲慢也輕慢，不敬畏神也不尊重人，所以不會到對的源頭來尋求智慧。正所謂心中無神，目中無人。可悲啊！

「敬畏耶和華是智慧的開端； 認識至聖者便是聰明。」箴言 9:10 CUNP-神

「褻慢人尋智慧，卻尋不着； 聰明人易得知識。」箴言 14:6 CUNP-神

「行動正直的，敬畏耶和華； 行事乖僻的，卻藐視祂。」箴言 14:2 CUNP-神

「褻慢人不愛受責備； 他也不就近智慧人。」箴言 15:12 CUNP-神

「你若有智慧，是與自己有益； 你若褻慢，就必獨自擔當。」箴言 9:12 CUNP-神

God is the source of wisdom. But, whether a person has wisdom or not depends on whether they are humble and willing to be taught. Whether a person is willing to be taught depends on their attitude. The mockers cannot get wisdom, because their attitude is not only arrogant, but also frivolous. They do not fear God nor respect people, so they will not seek wisdom from the right source.  As my Chinese expression goes “When there is no God in one’s heart, then one sees nobody in his eyes (means full of defiance.)” What a pity!

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” Proverbs 9:10 NIV

The mocker seeks wisdom and finds none, but knowledge comes easily to the discerning.” Proverbs 14:6 NIV

“Whoever fears the Lord walks uprightly, but those who despise him are devious in their ways.” Proverbs 14:2 NIV

“Mockers resent correction, so they avoid the wise.” Proverbs 15:12 NIV

“If you are wise, your wisdom will reward you; if you are a mocker, you alone will suffer.”Proverbs 9:12 NIV

信心就是相信聖經這本歷史鉅獻所記載的耶穌，與他所宣稱，詮釋及展現他是基督的一切事。信心就是相信主耶穌基督在聖經中所啟示的一切，相信他是祂，三位一體的真神，是神本體的真像。在他之前或之後自稱是「基督」的都是以撒旦為父的，因為都是謊言，撒旦是謊言之父，從誘惑人類始祖開始就是以謊言混淆視聽，破壞離間人與神的關係，最終目的是導致人與神隔絕。我們要警醒，不要入了迷惑。

「因為將有好些人冒我的名來，說『我是基督』，並且要迷惑許多人。」馬太福音 24:5 RCUV

「這天國的福音要傳遍天下，對萬民作見證，然後終結才來到。」」馬太福音 24:14 RCUV

「那時，若有人對你們說：『看哪，基督在這裏！』或『在那裏！』你們不要信。 因為假基督和假先知將要起來，顯大神蹟、大奇事，如果可能，要把選民也迷惑了。 看哪，我已經預先告訴你們了。 若有人對你們說：『看哪，基督在曠野裏！』你們不要出去；或說：『看哪，基督在內室中！』你們不要信。」馬太福音 24:23-26 RCUV

「你們是出於你們的父魔鬼，你們寧願隨著你們父的慾念而行。他從起初就是殺人的，不守真理，因他心裏沒有真理。他說謊是出於自己的本性，因他本來是說謊的，也是說謊者之父。」約翰福音 8:44 RCUV

Faith is to believe in Jesus for everything he claims, explains, and demonstrates that he is. He is the Christ, which is recorded in the Bible, the historical contribution of all times. Faith is to believe in everything the Lord Jesus Christ has revealed in the Bible, to believe that he is HE. He is the true God of the Trinity, and the true image of God's nature.  Those who claim to be “christ” before or after him are all children of Satan, because they are all full of lies. Satan is the father of lies. Satan used lies to tempt the ancestors of mankind from the beginning.  He meant to confuse people and destroy the relationship between mankind and God.  His purpose is to separate people from God.  We must be vigilant and not fall into such confusion!

“He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,”Hebrews 1:3 ESV

“For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will lead many astray.” Matthew 24:5 ESV

“And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” Matthew 24:14 ESV

“Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There he is!’ do not believe it. For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. See, I have told you beforehand. So, if they say to you, ‘Look, he is in the wilderness,’ do not go out. If they say, ‘Look, he is in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it.”Matthew 24:23-26 ESV

“You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.” John 8:44 ESV

聖經中的法利賽人表現出來的是假冒為善，實在令人很難想像，竟有人可以對上帝表現一副敬虔的模樣，卻沒有愛人之心？這些人雖對上帝律法中的條文細節了若指掌，卻完全沒有掌握到所有律法的核心。我們要常常提醒自己及省察自己，不要研讀死背上帝的話語卻完全忽略了重點所在。追求表面功夫，卻沒有真正愛神及愛人如己之心。耶穌稱法利賽人是假冒為善的人，祂也是對用嘴唇尊敬上帝，心卻遠離祂的人如此說。親愛的弟兄姐妹，我們要儆醒！

「耶穌對他們說：「 以賽亞 指著你們假冒為善的人所預言的說得好。如經上所記： 『這百姓用嘴唇尊敬我， 他們的心卻遠離我。 他們把人的規條當作教義教導人； 他們拜我也是枉然。』 你們是離棄上帝的誡命，拘守人的傳統。」 耶穌又說：「你們誠然是廢棄上帝的誡命，為要守自己的傳統。」馬可福音 7:6-9 RCUV

「他們如同百姓前來，來到你這裡，坐在你面前徬佛是我的子民。他們聽了你的話，卻不實行；因為他們口裡說愛，心卻追隨財利。」以西結書 33:31 RCUV

「「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？」約翰福音 5:41-44 RCUV

「「你們這假冒為善的文士和法利賽人有禍了！因為你們好像粉飾了的墳墓，外面好看，裡面卻滿了死人的骨頭和一切的污穢。 你們也是如此，外面對人顯出公義，裡面卻滿了虛偽和不法的事。」馬太福音 23:27-28 RCUV

The Pharisees in the Bible demonstrate hypocrisy, which is really hard to imagine that someone can appear pious, but have no love for others. Although these people know the details of the laws of God, but they have not grasped the core meaning of the laws.  We must always remind ourselves and examine ourselves, not to be like the Pharisees who study the Word of God but completely ignore the point. Not to be like the Pharisees who pursue superficial works, but do not really love God nor love others.  Jesus called the Pharisees hypocrites, and He also said this to those who honor God with their lips, but whose hearts are far from Him.  Dear brothers and sisters, we must be alert!

“And he said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, “‘This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me; in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ You leave the commandment of God and hold to the tradition of men.” And he said to them, “You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God in order to establish your tradition!” Mark 7:6-9 ESV

“And they come to you as people come, and they sit before you as my people, and they hear what you say but they will not do it; for with lustful talk in their mouths they act; their heart is set on their gain.” Ezekiel 33:31 ESV

“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?” John 5:41-44 ESV

““Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs, which outwardly appear beautiful, but within are full of dead people’s bones and all uncleanness. So you also outwardly appear righteous to others, but within you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.” Matthew 23:27-28 ESV

有鑑於近日全能神教會即前身為東方閃電的信奉者積極潛入各基督教會，並尋找可吸收的主內弟兄姊妹們進行迷惑洗腦的事情，今天我要苦口婆心地勸告主內親愛的弟兄姊妹們，當我們查經的時候真的要分別為聖的來學習神的話語，唯有在真道上紮根，我們才能在面對撒旦使者，以似是而非的言論來迷惑我們的時候站立得穩，只有舉起這聖靈的寶劍，也就是神的真道來行動還擊，我們才能勝過敵人。

「我很驚訝你們這麼快就離開那位藉著基督之 恩呼召你們的上帝，而去隨從別的福音； 其實並沒有另一個福音，不過有些人騷擾你們，要把基督的福音更改了。 但無論是我們或是天上來的使者，若傳福音給你們 ，與我們所傳給你們的不同，他該受詛咒！ 我們已經說了，現在我再說，若有人傳福音給你們，與你們以往所領受的不同，他該受詛咒！」

加拉太書 1:6-9 RCUV

「那樣的人是假使徒，行事詭詐，裝作基督的使徒。 這也不足為奇，因為連撒但也裝作光明的天使。 所以，他的差役若裝作公義的差役也沒有甚麼大不了。他們的結局必然跟他們的行為相符。」哥林多後書 11:13-15 RCUV

「若有人到你們那裏而不傳這教導，不要接他到家裏，也不要向他問安； 因為向他問安的，就在他的惡行上有份。」約翰二書 1:10-11 RCUV

「我所說的話，你要考慮，因為主必在凡事上給你聰明。」提摩太後書 2:7 RCUV

「你當竭力在上帝面前作一個經得起考驗、無愧的工人，按著正意講解真理的話。 要遠避世俗的空談，因為這等空談會使人進到更不敬虔的地步。」提摩太後書 2:15-16 RCUV

In view of the fact that the Church of Almighty God, formerly known as Eastern Lightning, has actively infiltrated various Christian churches and is looking for gullible brothers and sisters in the Lord to confuse and brainwash them, I want to encourage my dear brothers and sisters in Christ, with all my heart, that we must truly set apart ourselves to learn the word of God when we come to Bible Study. Only by taking root in the truth can we stand firm in the face of Satan’s messengers as they try to confuse us with specious teaching.  Only when we lift up the sword of the Holy Spirit, which is the Word of God, to take action and fight back, can we overcome the enemy.

“I am shocked that you are turning away so soon from God, who called you to himself through the loving mercy of Christ. You are following a different way that pretends to be the Good News but is not the Good News at all. You are being fooled by those who deliberately twist the truth concerning Christ. Let God’s curse fall on anyone, including us or even an angel from heaven, who preaches a different kind of Good News than the one we preached to you. I say again what we have said before: If anyone preaches any other Good News than the one you welcomed, let that person be cursed.” Galatians 1:6-9 NLT

“These people are false apostles. They are deceitful workers who disguise themselves as apostles of Christ. But I am not surprised! Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is no wonder that his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. In the end they will get the punishment their wicked deeds deserve.」” 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 NLT

“If anyone comes to your meeting and does not teach the truth about Christ, don’t invite that person into your home or give any kind of encouragement. Anyone who encourages such people becomes a partner in their evil work.” 2 John 1:10-11 NLT

“Think about what I am saying. The Lord will help you understand all these things.”

2 Timothy 2:7 NLT

“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth. But avoid irreverent babble, for it will lead people into more and more ungodliness,” 2 Timothy 2:15-16 ESV

我們不單單要相信耶穌，還要跟從耶穌。相信與跟從有所不同，因為跟從耶穌是需要委身與犧牲的。在馬可福音八章34節這裡主耶穌基督說：「若有人要跟從我，就當捨己，背起他的十字架來跟從我。 」當我在看這個經文的時候，發現了主耶穌說的跟從有三個重要的動作，第一，捨己，我們當捨身取義，「義」就是神羔羊（主耶穌基督）在我之上，祂成為我的救贖，祂是我的主。第二，背起十字架，意思是我們也要活出神創造我們的目的，背負起主呼召我們當承擔的責任和犧牲。第三，跟從主，就是遵從主的教導與引導，主怎麼做，我們也當怎麼行事為人。

「不背自己的十字架跟從我的，不配作我的門徒。」馬太福音 10:38 RCUV

「我們知道，我們的舊人和祂同釘十字架，使罪身滅絕，叫我們不再作罪的奴隸，」

羅馬書 6:6 RCUV

「凡屬基督耶穌 的人，是已經把肉體與肉體的邪情私慾同釘在十字架上了。 我們若靠著聖靈而活，也要靠著聖靈行事。」加拉太書 5:24-25 RCUV

「我們堅強的人應該分擔不堅強的人的軟弱，不求自己的喜悅。 我們各人務必要讓鄰人喜悅，使他得益處，得造就。」 羅馬書 15:1-2 RCUV

We must not only believe in Jesus, but we must also follow Jesus.  Believing is different from following, because following Jesus requires commitment and sacrifice.  In Mark 8:34, the Lord Jesus Christ said: “If anyone wants to follow me, he should deny himself, take up his cross and follow me.” When I was reading this scripture, I found there are three important actions that our Lord Jesus said about following Him. First, self-denial. We should sacrifice ourselves for righteousness. Righteousness means that the Lamb of God (the Lord Jesus Christ) is above us. He becomes our salvation and He our my Lord.  Second, taking up the cross means that we must also live out the purpose that God created us for, and carry out the responsibilities and sacrifices that the Lord has called us to bear.  Third, to follow the Lord is to follow the Lord's teachings and guidance. Whatever example the Lord has provided to us, we should follow.

“And whoever does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.”Matthew 10:38 ESV

“We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives. We are no longer slaves to sin.” Romans 6:6 NLT

“Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives.” Galatians 5:24-25 NLT

“We who are strong must be considerate of those who are sensitive about things like this. We must not just please ourselves. We should help others do what is right and build them up in the Lord.” Romans 15:1-2 NLT

一個人嘴裡說相信神，卻不斷追求惡的絕對不是悔改的表現，因為一個屬神的人是心意更新而變化的，是追求良善的，知道這是神所喜悅的。

「親愛的，不要效法惡，只要效法善。行善的人屬乎上帝；行惡的人未曾見過上帝。」

約翰三書 1:11

「信心也是這樣，若沒有行為是死的。

你信上帝只有一位，你信得很好；連鬼魔也信，且怕得發抖。 你這虛浮的人哪，你願意知道沒有行為的信心是沒有用的嗎？」雅各書 2:17, 19-20 

「世人哪，耶和華已指示你何為善。 祂向你所要的是什麼呢？ 只要你行公義，好憐憫， 存謙卑的心，與你的神同行。」彌迦書 6:8

「你們要結出果子來，和悔改的心相稱。」馬太福音 3:8

「所以，弟兄們，我以上帝的慈悲勸你們，將身體獻上當作活祭，是聖潔的，是上帝所喜悅的，你們如此事奉乃是理所當然的 。 不要效法這個世界，只要心意更新而變化，叫你們察驗何為上帝的善良、純全、可喜悅的旨意。」羅馬書 12:1-2

It is definitely not an expression of repentance that a person says that he believes in God, but he keeps pursuing evil.  Because a person, who belongs to God, is renewed and transformed in his mind to pursue good, knowing that this is pleasing to God.

“Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. Whoever does good is from God; whoever does evil has not seen God.” 3 John 1:11 ESV

“So you see, faith by itself isn’t enough. Unless it produces good deeds, it is dead and useless.

You say you have faith, for you believe that there is one God. Good for you! Even the demons believe this, and they tremble in terror. How foolish! Can’t you see that faith without good deeds is useless?” James 2:17, 19-20 NLT

“He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” Micah 6:8 NIV

“Produce fruit in keeping with repentance.” Matthew 3:8 NIV

“I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”Romans 12:1-2 ESV

「有時甚至在我們掌握事實之前，我們就說「我不相信」。 這不是客觀的。 我們有時會把先入為主的想法變成現實。 當選擇了陪審團時，我們曾經看到過這種情況。 當選出陪審員時，有一些人會（從一開始就說）此人有罪。 該人如何知道所指控的罪犯是否有罪呢？ 他們都還沒有聽到的案件陳情，也沒有聽到有任何證據。 讓我們不要妄下結論。 讓我們以客觀代替主觀。 在聽到事實之前，不要妄判有罪。 讓邏輯治理在我們的生活中，不要像歷史上的某些人只是為了獲得某種結果而罔顧事實。」- 柏凱恩

「那些祭司長和文士都站著，竭力控告他。」路加福音 23:10

「從前你們的意思是要害我，但上帝的意思原是好的，要使許多百姓得以存活，成就今日的光景。」創世記 50:20

「說出真話的，顯明公義； 作假見證的，顯出詭詐。」箴言 12:17

“Sometimes we say, “I don’t believe” even before we have the facts. This is not objective. We sometimes bring preconceived ideas into a situation. We have seen this type situation when a jury is being chosen. When the jurors are being selected some will say (right from the start) that the person is guilty. How does the person know that the alleged criminal is guilty or not? They have not heard the case presented and they have not heard any of the evidence. Let’s not jump to conclusions. Let’s be objective instead of being subjective. Let’s not be guilty of prejudging until we have heard the facts. Let’s let logic rule in our lives, unlike some people from history who just wanted a certain outcome ignoring the facts.” - Kevin Berg

“Now the chief priests and the whole council were seeking testimony against Jesus to put him to death, but they found none. For many bore false witness against him, but their testimony did not agree.” Mark 14:55-56 ESV

“The chief priests and the teachers of the law were standing there, vehemently accusing him.”

Luke 23:10 NIV

“As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good in order to bring about this present result, to preserve many people alive. ” Genesis 50:20

“Whoever speaks the truth gives honest evidence, but a false witness utters deceit.” Proverbs 12:17 ESV

舊約中出現的一個詞「彌賽亞」是希伯來文，意思是「受膏者」，新約的「基督」一詞是希臘文意思等同於彌賽亞，受膏者是神所揀選的，是獨一無二的，是拯救者。舊約中三種人會受膏，就是先知，祭司和王。耶穌包含了這三種身份，他是神揀選差遣來表明神的，他獻上自己做我們的代罪羔羊，他是勝過死亡權勢，掌管一切的萬王之王，萬主之主，神國度的再來君王。耶穌這名字的意思是耶和華是救主，馬太福音1:21記載「她將要生一個兒子，你要給他起名叫耶穌，因他要將自己的百姓從罪惡裏救出來。」」耶穌被稱爲是「以馬內利」就是神與我們同在。所以我們稱他為「主耶穌基督」是彌賽亞，是我們的救主，我們的王。

「婦人說：「我知道彌賽亞（就是那稱為基督的）要來；他來了，必將一切的事都告訴我們。」 耶穌說：「這和你說話的就是他！」」約翰福音 4:25-26

A word "Messiah" that appears in the Old Testament is Hebrew, meaning "anointed.” And, the word "Christ" in the New Testament is Greek and means the equivalent to Messiah. The anointed one is chosen by God, is unique, and is the savior.  There are three types of people in the Old Testament who will be anointed: prophets, priests, and kings.  Jesus is included in these three identities. He was chosen and sent by God to reveal God. He offered himself to be our scapegoat. He is the King of Kings, Lord of Lords, and is the coming King of the Kingdom of God who overcomes the power of death and controls everything.  The name Jesus means that Jehovah is the Savior. Matthew 1:21 says that “And she will have a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”” Jesus was to be called "Emanuel" which means that God is with us.  So we call him "Lord Jesus Christ", the Messiah, our Savior and our King.

「The woman said, “I know the Messiah is coming—the one who is called Christ. When he comes, he will explain everything to us.” Then Jesus told her, “ I AM the Messiah!”」John 4:25-26 NLT

有人說：「你讓神顯個神跡給我看看，我就信祂。」類似這樣的話兩千多年前，法利賽人也對耶穌說過了。暫且不說這句話的語病，我們先來談論聖經中神顯神跡的目的是什麼。

神跡是要彰顯神的權柄與大能，讓人歸榮耀於神。神跡是要彰顯神對人的憐憫與供應，讓人感謝神，神跡是驗證神的教訓及顯明神的啓示，讓人歸向神。神跡不是用來證明神的存在，人的有限無法證明神的無限，神跡是要顯出神的作為，在人不能但在神凡事都能。人是被造的「神跡」，如果我們連自己的存在這個神跡都無視，哪麼多少神跡顯明在我們周遭我們都看不見，只有相信神，哪麼就處處可見神跡了。

「法利賽人和撒都該人來試探耶穌，請他從天上顯個神跡給他們看。 耶穌回答說：「晚上天發紅，你們就說：『天必要晴。』 早晨天發紅，又發黑，你們就說：『今日必有風雨。』你們知道分辨天上的氣色，倒不能分辨這時候的神跡。 一個邪惡淫亂的世代求神跡，除了 約拿 的神跡以外，再沒有神跡給他看。」耶穌就離開他們去了。」馬太福音 16:1-4

「他雖然在他們面前行了許多神跡，他們還是不信他。」約翰福音 12:37

「人非有信，就不能得上帝的喜悅；因為到上帝面前來的人必須信有上帝，且信祂賞賜那尋求祂的人。」希伯來書 11:6

Someone said, "Why don’t you just have God show me a miracle, then I will believe in Him." Similar thing was said to Jesus by the Pharisees more than two thousand years ago.  Putting aside the problems of this sentence, let's first talk about the purpose of miracle/sign/wonder from God in the Bible.

 Miracles are to demonstrate God's authority and power, and let people give glory to God.  Miracles are to show God's mercy and provision for man, and let people give thanks to God. Miracles are to verify God's teaching and reveal God's revelation, and guide people’s return to God.  Miracles are not used to prove the existence of God. The finiteness of man cannot prove the infiniteness of God. Miracles are to show the deeds of God. With man it is impossible, but everything is possible with God.  Man is a created "miracle." If we ignore the miracle of our own existence, then we will also ignore the miracles that are manifested around us.  Only by believing in The LORD, then we shall see miracles everywhere.

“One day the Pharisees and Sadducees came to test Jesus, demanding that he show them a miraculous sign from heaven to prove his authority. He replied, “You know the saying, ‘Red sky at night means fair weather tomorrow; red sky in the morning means foul weather all day.’ You know how to interpret the weather signs in the sky, but you don’t know how to interpret the signs of the times! Only an evil, adulterous generation would demand a miraculous sign, but the only sign I will give them is the sign of the prophet Jonah. ” Then Jesus left them and went away.” Matthew 16:1-4 NLT

“But despite all the miraculous signs Jesus had done, most of the people still did not believe in him.”John 12:37 NLT

「And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.」Hebrews 11:6 NLT
