聖經閱讀：使徒行傳17:10-15 現代中譯本|合和本
2013年7月19日(五)

保羅是個很棒的宣教士和傳道人，他小心謹慎只教導真理。 　在今天的聖經閱讀中，我們知道庇哩亞人也很小心謹慎。第11節說：「這裏的人比帖撒羅尼迦人開明。他們熱心地傾聽信息，每天查考聖經，要知道保羅所說的是不是真實。」 　庇哩亞人知道，查考上帝的話語對他們是重要的，因為他們必須確定保羅的教導是真實的。我們也需要像這些人一樣。跟從牧師、主日學老師、及每日靈修的作者來學習是可以的，但是我們自己讀經才是重要，因為我們必須確定別人的教導是上帝的真理。 　你要為自己的靈命成長負起責任，要每天讀經，確定你所學到的是來自上帝。 —GT 「耶穌對信他的猶太人說：『你們若常常遵守我的教導，就真的是我的門徒了；你們會認識真理，真理會使你們得自由。』」 約翰福音8:31-32 禱告：上帝，我願每天查考祢的話語。奉耶穌的名，阿們！ (林相汝譯)

Bible Reading: Acts 17:10-15
Friday, July 19 2013

Paul was a wonderful missionary and preacher. He was careful to only teach the truth. 　In our Bible Reading today, we learn that the people in Berea were careful, too. Verse 11 says, “The people in Berea were more open-minded than those in Thessalonica. They were so glad to hear the message Paul told them. They studied the Scriptures every day to make sure that what they heard was really true.” 　The people in Berea knew that it was important for them to study God’s Word. They needed to be sure that Paul’s teaching was true. We need to be like these people. It is okay to learn from pastors, Sunday School teachers and devotion writers. But it is important that we read the Bible ourselves. We need to be sure that other people are teaching us God’s truth. 　Accept responsibility for your own spiritual growth. Study the Bible every day. Be sure that what you learn is from God. —GT “So Jesus said to the Jews who believed in him, ‘If you continue to accept and obey my teaching, you are really my followers. You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.’” John 8:31-32 PRAYER: God, I want to study Your Word every day. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
