彼得 (1)
聖經閱讀：使徒行傳2:14-41 現代中譯本|合和本
2014年5月1日(四)

今天和接下來的幾天，我們要來認識彼得，了解他在使徒行傳中所做的事情，以及我們可以向他學習什麼。彼得是耶穌的門徒之一。 　在耶穌升天，以及門徒們被聖靈充滿了之後，彼得和其他十一個使徒站起來，他大聲說話讓所有人都能聽見他。當彼得向人們傳講上帝的信息時，他引用舊約聖經的經文，同時也談到耶穌死在十字架上、被埋葬，然後從死裡復活的事情。彼得挑戰那些人，是否可以悔改並受洗。 　彼得認識上帝的話語，他倚靠上帝的話語，你也可以照這樣子來做。研讀並學習上帝的話語，如此你就能做好準備來向別人宣講或教導上帝的信息。當你有機會分享時，要倚靠聖經的經文來引導你使用手語或說話。－CPE* 「在他裡面扎根，生長，建立信心；你們就是這樣受教的。」 歌羅西書2:7a 禱告：親愛的上帝，幫助我能像彼得一樣，我願在教導人認識祢時倚靠祢的話語。奉耶穌的名，阿們！ (林威妮譯)

Peter (1)
Bible Reading: Acts 2:14-41
Thursday, May 1, 2014

Today and the next few days, we will learn about Peter, what he did in the book of Acts and what we can learn from him. Peter was one of Jesus’ disciples. 　After Jesus went to heaven and the disciples were filled with the Holy Spirit, Peter stood up with the other eleven apostles. He spoke loudly so that all the people could hear him. Peter used verses from the Old Testament when he preached God’s message to the people. He also talked about Jesus dying on a cross, being buried and then rising from the dead. Peter challenged the people to repent and be baptized. 　Peter knew God’s Word. He depended on God’s Word. You can do the same. Study and learn God’s Word. Then you will be prepared to preach or teach God’s message to others. And when you have opportunities to share, depend on Bible verses to guide the words you sign or say. —CPE* “You must depend on Christ only, drawing life and strength from him. Just as you were taught the truth, continue to grow stronger in your understanding of it.” Colossians 2:7a PRAYER: Dear God, help me to be like Peter. I want to depend on Your Word when I teach others about You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
