聖經閱讀：使徒行傳28:10-31 現代中譯本|合和本
2014年6月2日(一)
使徒行傳中我們要來看的最後一個城市是羅馬。羅馬過去是一個很大的城市，也是羅馬帝國的中樞，羅馬皇帝就住在羅馬。因為這個城市到處都是未認識耶穌的人，所以保羅想要去那裡。保羅終於如願到了羅馬，他是被逮捕的犯人、身上捆著鎖鍊，但是上帝賜給他在羅馬講道的機會。保羅在羅馬的期間，他向人傳講耶穌，「從早到晚，他向他們講解上帝國的信息。他引證摩西法律和先知書，要他們信耶穌」（第23b節）。保羅雖然被鎖鍊捆著，但是這並沒有阻止他向人傳講耶穌。 有時候我們會認為，是我們所處的環境阻礙我們去向人傳講耶穌，但是無論我們發生什麼事或身處什麼地方，我們都應該持續不斷傳講耶穌。今天，你願意學像保羅嗎？ —JK 「他大膽地宣揚上帝國的信息，教導有關主耶穌基督的事，沒有受到甚麼阻礙。」 使徒行傳28:31
禱告：天父，求祢今天與我同在並幫助我為祢作見證。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

Cities in Acts (7)
Bible Reading: Acts 28:10-31

The last city we will look at in the book of Acts is Rome. Rome was a very large city and the center of the Roman Empire. The Roman emperors lived in Rome. Because the city was filled with people who did not know about Jesus, Paul wanted to go there. Paul finally was able to travel to Rome. He was under arrest and in chains, but God gave him the opportunity to preach in Rome. While Paul was in Rome, he told many people about Jesus. “He spoke to them all day long, explaining God’s kingdom to them. He used the Law of Moses and the writings of the prophets to persuade them to believe in Jesus” (verse 23b). Paul was in chains, but that did not stop him from preaching about Jesus. Sometimes we think that our circumstances prevent us from telling others about Jesus. But no matter what happens to us or where we are, we should continue talking about Jesus. Will you be like Paul today? —JK “He told them about God’s kingdom and taught them about the Lord Jesus Christ. He was very bold, and no one tried to stop him from speaking.” Acts 28:31
PRAYER: Father, be with me today and help me to witness for You. In Jesus’ name. Amen. |
