經文: 約翰福音 16:2 人要把你們趕出會堂，並且時候將到，凡殺你們的就以為是事奉神。
默想: 親愛的主，當我們自以為是事奉上帝時，我們很可能犯下驅趕上帝子民離開敬拜上帝會堂，甚至於將上帝子民趕盡殺絕的錯誤，還沾沾自喜、自以為是。就像被主耶穌在大馬色光照落馬以前的掃羅一樣。求主幫助我，在立志事奉上帝的同時，也能夠小心避免掃羅所犯的錯誤。
題目: 你對於主耶穌在最後晚餐中與門徒這一段對話的內容有何感觸？

Jesus told his disciples to be courageous (Joh 14:27-29; 16: 1-4; 9-11). Although they would be faced with hardship and trials, they are not alone since He has won the final victory. If we remember Jesus has won through in the end, even when we’re in the deepest sorrow, we shall overcome because of the peace from Him.
回覆刪除How moving it is to hear Jesus said, “…And glory has come to me through them.” (Joh 17:10). Jesus didn’t owe the glory to himself but to His Father and His disciples. He treasures us so much. We all should try every effort to glorify Him by being witnesses.
草戊尚土 牧師和各位俱樂部的兄姐，平安：
回覆刪除耶穌說：『現在你們信麼？』
我想這些門徒即便是彼得，在接下來耶穌被抓的考驗裡，可能都有著天人交戰的掙扎。耶穌與門徒在這最後的晚餐裡談了很多可能會遭受的苦難，將來聖靈的降臨與耶穌的離世，但是最後卻仍要祂的門徒自省：『現在你們信麼？』
或許，我們聽了很多牧師的證道，也曾被聖靈感動，但是當遇到挫折時，人還是會軟弱，信心還是會動搖。但願主耶穌憐憫我們，在祂的應許裡仍給我們平安與盼望。
『在世上你們有苦難；但你們可以放心，我已經勝了世界。』

回覆刪除耶穌說"我將這事告訴你們，是叫你們到了時候可以想起我對你們說過了...。"16:4
最後的晚餐、最後的話，耶穌對門徒所講的，不只是普世、全人類的救恩，而是要門徒"像"祂一樣--合一、奉差遣、不屬世界、分別為聖。
這些耶穌所揀選的"種子"信徒，究竟能不能持守所見、所信？試想，這些門徒是世人唯一的機會，他們若fail，耶穌要再來一次？或者用另外的方式傳揚福音？
耶穌的最後一席話，充滿了對門徒的愛與期待，並且應許「你們可以放心，我已經勝了世界」。這些門徒在聖靈保惠師的引導保護之下，真的像耶穌一樣「我在地上已經榮耀你，你所託付我的事，我已成全了」，哈利路亞！榮耀歸與至高神！
Dear all, Peng An,
回覆刪除Thanks for your sharing and I enjoyed reading your postings. We missed Yuze again, hopefully this was not due to another episode of computer breaking down.... May our Lord protect and bless Yuze...
Apostle John used large proportion of his gospel to record the last week of our Lord Jesus, especially the last night, before he was arrested and crucified. Reading those last words of our Lord could help us to understand what was the most important concern of our Lord, which was the testimony of His disciples. Because the salvation of the whole world would be hung on their testimonies. Praise be to our Lord, though they were weak and frail, yet our Lord granted them enough grace to testify for the Lord, to spread the gospel to the end of the world, both geographically and chronologically...
