[0:00] We're going to continue with Galatians. People say that the invention of the internet has reduced the distance between people. [0:24] And it's turned this world into a world village. Do you agree? What is a village? [0:37] What is a village? It's a place where a small group of people live. And in this village you will know everyone. [0:51] And you will know everything that happened. And you will know everything that happens in other people's lives and what has happened in that town. [1:05] And it's been said that we have entered this worldly town age. [1:42] There are two people. How many of you actually know the person next next door? [1:55] How many? No one. Oh, there's one person. Oh, it's so sad that there are so many people. [2:10] You know the person next next door. Such a pity. All of you guys here and only one person knows the person next next door. Please take note that the friends that you make on the internet, you don't even know if they're a boy or a girl. [2:32] In the internet, we get a lot of information. And the information that you get from the internet will be a lot. [2:43] But how many of you actually know the truth? But how many of you actually know the truth? And how many of you actually know the truth? [2:55] And if it is actually true, how much of it is actually useful to your life? We can't deny that the internet has positive effects on our lives. [3:09] But the fact that the fact that the internet has positive effects on our lives. But its negative impact is that it brings to people's lives uncertainty and extra information. [3:30] We are living in a high-tech society. [3:42] We ourselves are actually human beings with flesh and bones. Who here is the same as us with flesh and bones? [3:55] It's the people that God has made. People with actual souls, with spirits. Not computers, not movies, not technology. [4:14] It's your friends, your family, and your neighbors. And your neighbors that God loves. [4:26] That's very sad that today, we are watching the internet, or watching movies, or playing games. It's a really big pity now that the time that we spend on the internet, or watching movies, or playing games. [4:45] It's not exceed the time that we spend with actual people. This has caused many young people being only able to interact with computers and not people. [5:04] So how should people interact with one another? Being a Christian means that we are no longer one single person. [5:23] We are a part of Christ, and we cannot just live on our own. The life of a Christian is that when the Holy Spirit comes and enters us, and changes us. [5:42] When the Holy Spirit comes and enters us, we can get the fruit of the Holy Spirit. This is what I mentioned earlier in the last time. When the Holy Spirit enters us, it bears fruit, and the fruit of the Holy Spirit. [5:59] I, I, I talked about last time. I want to ask you a question. What is the first fruit of the Holy Spirit? Let me ask you guys a question. What's the first fruit of the Holy Spirit? [6:12] Remember that song? What? What is it? Bigger. Love. Love. Love. It is love. [6:24] Love is what is the thing about interaction between people. [6:35] Paul wrote a very famous passage on love in 1 Corinthians. Do you guys know it? [6:51] Who will be? Can anyone recite it? You can recite it. Just one or two verses. Everyone knows the first bit. Love is patient. Everyone knows the first bit. Love is patient. [7:02] Everyone knows the first bit. Love is patient. In today's book, Paul wrote in the Galatians. [7:14] He also told us that we cannot be ashamed and ashamed and ashamed and ashamed and ashamed. And in the same way, in this passage, Paul has told us that we should not envy others and speak with others. [7:31] This is saying that when we are in the body of Christ, we are not in competition with one another. We are not in a race. [7:48] Let's open up the first verse of the verse of the verse. We will see the first verse of the verse of the verse. If there is a person who is in the past, who is in the past, who is in the past, who is in the past, who is in the past, who is in the past. To make the past, who is in the past. [8:01] And who is in the past. So in verse 1, it says, Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him gently, but watch yourself, or you also may be tempted. [8:17] This is also from the right side to tell us that we are not in a competition with one another. So we should not be in competition with one another, but we should actually serve one another. [8:31] This is what we are talking about today. When one person needs help, we must be lifted up. So this is the first point of the message today. [8:42] When others are in need, we should go and help them. This sort of help may be materialistic help. [8:53] Or more likely it could be spiritual help. So just like in verse 1 says, if someone is caught in sin, who will go and help them? [9:12] It is you. It is you. We should restore him gently. We should restore him gently. In John's Gospel, it was written that there was a woman who was caught in...we're doing adultery. [9:38] In that time, if you were caught in adultery, then you should be thrown to there. [9:51] So when people heard about this, they all went and found big rocks, and they were about to throw them at home. [10:04] But at that time, the Pharisees and the Sadieces wanted to pose a hard question to Jesus, so they brought her to him. [10:26] In church, you can see that some people are very popular. But some people are not very popular. [10:43] This could be due to their personality or the way that they do things. [10:55] What would happen if those unpopular people did something bad? [11:06] What would happen if those unpopular people did something bad? It could be very likely that when this happens that people were going to find rocks and prepared to throw them at them. [11:20] How does Jesus deal with this person who had sinned? We won't go into depth about what happens in this story. [11:36] You can go home and read it. Now, please, please, let me know that Jesus said that Jesus said to her. But do take note of the last line that Jesus said to her. [11:48] I don't agree with you. Go. Don't go back. Don't do it again. I too will not condemn you. Go and do not sin anymore. [12:00] Jesus didn't否定 that the woman is a sin. Jesus did not deny the fact that that lady had sinned. But He gently redeemed her heart and helped her to not sin anymore. [12:22] Now, I want you to look around you and do you actually know the people you were around? [12:39] Do you know them? I don't want you to see if they've actually sinned and going to find rocks. [12:52] I want you to think about the last time that they were in need and that you actually gave them help. [13:07] Do you still remember? Or you may not know that they need help. Or you may not know that they need help. [13:18] That last time you used to say, what was the last time that you gently encouraged them with kind words? [13:31] Or you may say, they don't even need encouragement. Or you may say that they don't even need encouragement. Have you ever thought like that? [13:44] No. There's no one who doesn't want to encourage. I want to encourage, is it not? It can't be like no one doesn't need encouragement. Even their needs are need encouragement. Or is it more likely that you do not even care about their needs? [14:01] Can you say when was the last time that you actively wanted to help and encourage another person? [14:16] When was the last time that when someone was sick at church that you actually gave them a call and see how they were? [14:29] When was the last time that when someone at church maybe did not well at a test or could not find a job or met some problems that you actually went and encouraged them? [14:49] If a church only has people that come here for Sunday worship and Bible study and does not offer words of encouragement and support to one another, what kind of church is this? [15:11] This is a church with no love. This is a church with no love. This is a church with no love. A church with no love is not a church of Christ. [15:22] Let's all become a church that serves one another. Let's all become a church that serves one another. Let's all become a church that serves one another. Let's all become a church that serves one another. Let's all become a church that serves one another. That's enough staff to come here for family victory So from today onwards, carefully observe the needs of people around you and see if they need them support. [15:35] So from today onwards, carefully observe the needs of people around you and see if they need them support. Fromwards carefully observe the needs of people around you and see if they need them support. Be this, this is the first point. [15:47] So serving one another is the first point. That we're going to talk about the next one. In the next one, I want to ask you if you've heard of this song. So before we go on to the next point, we're going to ask you if you've heard of this song. [16:00] This song's name is called 心太軟. The name of this song is 心太軟. Have you heard it? It's a Chinese song. 心太軟,心太軟. [16:14] 把所有問題都自己看. Yes, that is how it goes. 我告訴你,男孩子都喜歡這首歌,雖然不一定做得到. [16:25] Boys really like this song, although they may not be able to do what the song says. 啊,這首歌多麼的浪漫哦,多麼的英雄哦. The song's so romantic and so manly. [16:39] 啊,有什麼問題? 啊,有什麼問題? 啊,有什麼問題? 啊,有什麼問題? 有什麼問題?我們自己來扛好,我不需要你們,我能行的. 啊,有什麼問題?我告訴你,這個世界,或許有人喜歡這種英雄,或者有人喜歡做這種英雄. [16:59] 啊,有什麼問題?我告訴你,這個世界,或許有人喜歡這種英雄,或者有人喜歡這種英雄. 但是教會不需要這樣的英雄. [17:11] 但是教會不需要這樣的英雄. 但是教會不需要這樣的英雄. 第六章的第二節告訴我們,個人的重擔要互相的擔當。 啊,這裡講到弟兄姐妹之間互相擔當個人的重擔的時候呢,就完全了基督的律法。 啊,什麼是基督的律法? [17:38] 什麼是基督的律法? 愛就是基督的律法。 愛就是基督的律法。 如果大家看我們今天這個經文的在上面一點,第十四節裡面,第五章的十四節的時候就講到,因為全部的律法都在愛人如己這一句話裡面成全了。 因為如果我們在看我們今天的經文看下去第三節的時候,如果有人本來沒什麼了不起,卻自以為是了不起的,就是欺騙自己。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 這就是說那些自以為了不起的人呢,不管有什麼事,都不願意讓別人來跟他分擔的,這些就是英雄。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 。 我不要人家的幫忙,我只要幫助別人就好了,不要別人幫忙。 。 不換 Worst人幫忙,我不希望可以upersystems幫忙,但我只幫助別人並不幫助別人所。 。 。 [19:09] The church doesn't need them. We need brothers and sisters who will carry each other's burdens. We are all a body of Christ, and we don't need these individualistic ideas. [19:31] Apart from these manly heroes, we don't need these other kind. [19:43] These are called pandas? This is a bit difficult to pronounce. Chinese people often use a dog to describe a person is that this person is very angry or very selfish. [20:05] Well, when the Chinese people describe some people as bears or pandas, when they are very ignorant and very selfish, and they are very stubborn and they don't listen to other people. [20:23] If they are used in our lives, it is those who are very selfish. So when we apply this to our actual lives, it's people who think they are very special. [20:36] They are very selfish. They are very selfish. They don't need you help. They don't need you help. They don't need your care. When they have problems in their lives, they don't need other people's help, and they don't need your care. [20:47] But at the same time, if other people need help, then they can't go and go to them and find help. [21:00] These people don't need to pay for them. They don't need to pay for them. They don't need to pay for them. They don't need to pay for them. These kind of people do not share their burdens with other people, and do not share other people's burdens. [21:12] They are even worse than these manly heroes. So that's why they're called Pandas. These selfish people often have problems with relationships in their lives. [21:38] They often have these things. Quite often they have disagreements with other people. [21:49] In the fourth chapter, we call them to be careful of their own behavior. Verse 4 says, Each one should test his own actions. [22:00] So that they can see if they become heroes or pandas. We can see how to check out their own actions. [22:11] It's easy to see if they can see them. So how do we test ourselves? It's really easy. Just look at the people around you now. If there are people in this world that you don't even want to be friends with, or don't even want to know? [22:31] If there are such people, don't think about why you don't like them. [22:44] Because there may be lots of things that you don't like about them. Don't think about how unlovable that person is first. Don't think about how unlovable that person is first. Don't think about how unlovable that person is first. [22:57] Do you have to be careful of that person? But first, think to yourself, In the act of serving one another, Have I actively went and served that person? [23:11] When I think that person is bad, I have to be careful of that person. Do I have to be careful of that person? When that person did something wrong, Did I with a gentle heart try and save them or redeem them? [23:27] Or say, Hey, I see this person is so much more than a person. Or is it more likely that you just don't like those kind of people And don't even want to interact with them? [23:39] Or is it another example? If you hear people, When people are talking to their neighbor, And are still playing games, And are still playing games, And are still playing games with them. How do they do it? [23:50] Or another example is, When we are listening to the sermon, And the person beside you is playing games, Or like doing stuff on their phone, Do we have to be careful of that person? [24:02] Will we, with a gentle heart, Go and tell them what they should do? Or will we be like in verse 1 says, That we also become tempted? [24:20] If other people are chatting, Then we join in the conversation. What is the word? What is the word? What is the word? What is the word? [24:31] What is the word? What is the word? The word, The phrase that, Love others as yourself is a Christian's,口号. [24:43] 口号. Slogan. Yes, slogan.口号, Actually,每一个基督徒都会叫. Slogans, Every Christian can repeat them. [24:55] But, If they are not, They are not. They are not. They are not. But, The word that is, But, Serving one another, And sharing in each others' burden. [25:08] Is not a slogan, But an action. to act for the sake of love needs sacrifice without sacrifice and without actions there is no love how does God love people神是不是只是在这个圣经或者透过先知告诉人我很爱你就这样就完了呢他除了告诉我们他爱我们之外他还让他的爱子耶稣基督以行动来证明他的爱什么行动呢就是进入人的世界上十字架为人赎罪爱是需要行动的爱是需要行动的以前你在教会或者团契当中看到有人软弱了的话或者需要帮助你可能就当看不见但盼望在今天你看了这些的经文回去在团契里面在讨论这些经文的时候改变我们的态度但我希望在书上那再继续我们看最后一节第五节大家有没有注意这里讲的一句话很特别叫做个人必担当自己的单子为什么第二节的时候说单子要互相的担当但是这里又说单子要自己担大家有没有注意的这是不是前后矛盾有冲突啊其实从英文或者特别是中文呢在这里我们看不到很大的分别但是在保罗写的信呢他是用希腊文写如果是看到希腊文的原文的时候发现这两个字这两个单子中文没有什么很大的分别但是在希腊文里面是完全不一样的意义第二节讲的呢这个单子呢是有关生活的压力生活上的困难这一种的单子这个单子是大家可以互相的分担可以互相的帮助彼此的服事的这种的败败是可以互相的分担在第五节用的这个单子呢是形容古代那个士兵啊身上背着那个行囊这是每一个士兵都需要承担的是不能够推卸的一个责任不能够分担的责任保罗这里第五节用这个是要表达 [29:18] 基督徒有一样东西有一方面的责任是不能够跟别人分担的基督徒只有一样事情是不能彼此服事互相担当要自己扛起来的那就是最后末日的审判和审判的后果我们要自己扛没有互相担当只有自己扛这两个单子一个可以互相担一个需要自己扛这两者的关系在哪里呢所以这两句话第一是我们可以分享第二是我们不能分享所以这两句话是什么保罗是在告诉我们如果今天我们能够为身边的弟兄姐妹彼此的服事彼此的担当困难软弱的话我们就活出了基督的爱这样的话圣灵就会在我们身上去结满了果子当我们活出了基督的形象我们在必须要去面对我们要面对的最后的审判的时候我们就能够站立得住这就是在那个时候我们就能够扛得起那不可推卸的责任相反的如果我们单单口里面只会讲一个基督徒的口号但没有基督徒的生命最后会怎么样呢耶稣曾经说过不是每一个口里说主啊主啊的人都能进天国神要看的不是我们讲的多好而是我们有没有爱的行动让我们今天开始画更多的心思去想一想我们周围的人的需要在哪一方面我们可以去鼓励他们彼此的服事彼此的担当所以从今开始我们再来多花时间去记住所有人周围的人和他们的需要和我们一起和他们分享我们可以分享责任��参加当时可以关键稍税留意去 [32:47] Late
