带着去献给天父的果子.
一. 上主日我讲了"带荣耀给天父的一个方法".
带荣耀给神的一个方法就是将从圣经学到了的真理拿去分享给亲友.
所以今天我再次劝各位,要尽自己的本份.将从圣经学到的真理送给亲友.
二. 圣经记载的有各样不同的果子!
1. 证明你在基督里是活的果子.马太福音5:14-16
主耶稣说,你们是世上的光.你们的光当这样照在人前....
叫人看见你们的好行为.归荣耀给你们在天上的父.
若是你读下去,就会看见有收税官,和当兵的问施洗的约翰,和约翰的回答,就知道,经文确是这个意思!
这里的果子,是人日常生活,行为上的善事!
2. 帮助信主的人认出假先知的果子.(马太福音7:15-23)
主耶稣说:要提防假先知,他们来到你们这里,外面穿着羊皮(英文译绵羊的衣服).里头却是凶暴的狼.
从他们所结的果子就可以认出他们来.因着神的恩典,神给我发现这项真理!
请记得,假先知穿着羊的衣服,看起来是良善的绵羊.羊的衣服就是他们日常的善行!
正如主耶稣所讲的例子说明.(马太福音7:22-23)
他们在主的面前说:我们不是奉你的名传道,奉你的名赶鬼,奉你的名行许多异能么?
主耶稣回答说:你们这些作恶的人,离开我去罢,我从来不认识你们!
奉耶稣的名传道,奉耶稣的名赶鬼,奉耶稣的名行许多异能,这就是他们日常所作的善行!就是他们穿在外面的羊皮!
从他们的行为,日常所作的事,他们是绵羊.但里头是凶暴的狼!
传道的人所结的果子,是他们传了道所建立的教会!
所以,从今以后,你每次要走进教堂敬拜神的时候,必须先看清楚,教堂前面写着的教会名字.
然后要查清楚,看看圣经有没有这个名字.若是没有,你就必须赶快的逃命!
(我讲了,但我又知道,世上现在没有这样的人了!我还是必须尽我的本份传讲圣经真理!)
三. 带着去献给天父的果子.
我们中国人有一个习惯,就是去看望亲友的时候,通常都带水果作礼物送给他们.
这个习惯可能是从这里来的!还有人这去探望亲友带水果去送礼给亲友吗?请举手!
1. 约翰福音15:5-6-->
主耶稣说,我是葡萄树,你们是枝子.常在我里面的,我也常在他里面,这人就多结果子....
你们多结果子.我父就因此得荣耀,你们也就是我的门徒了!
(敬请小心!世界许多异端就是从这些经文出来的!
他们说,你每日必须向两个人传福音.今天你没有,你犯了罪,你不是主的门徒,你会下地狱!
这一次,跪下来,我为你祈祷.明天一定要找两个人传道!)
是的,这里所说的果子,真的是带领人归主的果子!就是我们带着去见神的时候所带的果子!
正是,主耶稣说:你们多结果子.我父就因此得荣耀,你们也就是我的门徒了!
这正是,我上主日所传讲的续集!我们将从圣经学到的真理拿去传给亲友,就自然会带领人到天父那里了!
我们这样做就自然会有果子可以带着一同到神那里!
2. 歌逻西书1:6-->
这福音传到你们那里.也传到普天之下.并且结果增长,如同在你们中间,自从你们听见福音,真知道神恩惠的日子一样.
3. 罗马书15:15-21
我稍微放胆写信给你们,是要题醒你们的记性,特因神所赐给我的恩典,使我为外邦人作基督耶稣的仆役,
作神福音的祭司.叫所献上的外邦人,因着圣灵,成为圣洁,可蒙悦纳.所以论到神的事,我在基督耶稣里有可夸的.
除了基督藉我作的那些事,我甚么都不敢题,只题他藉我言语作为,用神迹奇事的能力,并圣灵的能力,使外邦人顺服.
甚至我从耶路撒冷,直转到以理古,到处传了基督的福音.我立了志向,不在基督的名被称过的地方传福音,免得建造在别人的根基上.
就如经上所记,未曾闻知他信息的,将要看见,未曾听过的,将要明白.
这段经文今天我只重复提一句:叫所献上的外邦人,因着圣灵,成为圣洁,可蒙悦纳.
各位就会明白!传福音所结的果子,就是带着去见天父的水果礼物!
最后,用主的话彼此劝勉:你们多结果子.我父就因此得荣耀,你们也就是我的门徒了!
愿神赐福保守各位直到永远!
One fruit we bring when we go to see God.
A. Last Sunday I preached about one way to bring glory to God.
The one way we preached about is to bring the truth we learned from
the Bible and give it to our friends and relatives!
So please take the truth you learned from the Bible and give it to
your friends and relatives! So God can be glorified!
B. There are different kinds of fruits recorded in the Bible!
1. Fruit that prove we are alive in Christ! Matt.5:14-16
Jesus said: You are the light of the world.… Let your light shine before
men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.”
Later in the chapter, soldiers and tax collectors asked John for advice and
John’s answers to them, we know the fruit in keeping with our repentance is
good deeds in our daily life!
2. Fruit that help us to know false prophets. Matt.7:15-23
"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but
inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them.
By the grace of God, I was granted to discover this:
Good deeds they do in daily life are their sheep’s clothing! As a preacher,
the church they establish after their preaching is their fruit!
Read the story Jesus told for illustration in Matt.7:21-23 and you will be
thankful to God that I am telling you this!
So each time when you are about to walk into a church building, watch and
read the name of that church! You must find out--> is this name recorded in
the Bible? If that name is not in the Bible, you must run for your life!
C. Fruit we bring when we go to see God!
1. John 15:5-8--> I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in
me and I in him, he will bear much fruit... This is to my Father’s glory,
that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.
(Watch out! Lots of heretic spring out of these few verses! Such as if you
don’t talk to 2 people about Jesus each day, you are not a disciple of
Christ, You will go to hell. Today, I will pray for you, but tomorrow you
must be sure to find 2 people to talk to about Jesus!)
Yes, true, this is fruit that we bring when we go to see God!
To bring glory to God is to share the truth that we learn from the Bible.
When we share the truth we learned from the Bible, we can bring people to
Christ! The people we bring to Christ is the fruit here!
Do you know Chinese people have a habit of bring fruit when they visit
their friends and relatives!? They got it from here!
2. Col.1:6--> The gospel has come to you. All over the world this gospel is
bearing fruit and growing, just as it has been doing among you since the
day you heard it and understood God's grace in all its truth.
3. Ro.15:15-21--> But I write the more boldly unto you in some measure, as
putting you again in remembrance, because of the grace that was given me of
God, that I should be a minister of Christ Jesus unto the Gentiles,
ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might
be made acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Spirit…. For I will not
dare to speak of any things save those which Christ wrought through me, for
the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed, in the power of signs and
wonders, in the power of the Holy Spirit; so that from Jerusalem, and round
about even unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ; yea,
making it my aim to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, that I
might not build upon another man's foundation; Rather, as it is written:
"Those who were not told about him will see, and those who have not heard
will understand."
May the Lord bless you and keep you always! June 3, 2009.
