神深愛世人 GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD The Bible says: "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16)   Without exception, God loves every person in the world. From His love He has provided eternal life for all of us in Jesus Christ. This booklet will explain to you how you may receive eternal life. 聖經說﹕ 「神愛世人， 甚至將祂的獨生子賜給他們， 叫一切信祂的， 不至滅亡， 反得永生。」(約3:16) 神愛世上每一個人，絕不會偏袒。 因為神深愛世人，便為人類在基 督耶穌裡預備了永生。這本小冊 子將與你分享，讓你確實的知道 怎樣可以得到這永生。

神的愛 GOD’S LOVE If God says He loves me, then have I experienced, receive, and enjoyed God’s love? Do I know for sure that I have eternal life?   如果 神告訴我，祂愛我， 那麼我有沒有接受了、經歷到、 享受過 神這無比的愛？ 我有沒有永生的把握？ ‧是無條件的 (約3:16) ‧是捨命的 (提前2:5-6) ‧是永不止息的 (來13:5-6) ‧是永不改變的 (來13:8) ‧is unconditional (John3:16) ‧is sacrificial (1 Tim 2:5-6) ‧is unceasing (Hebrews 13:5-6) ‧never changes (Hebrews 13:8) If not, why? 若沒有，是甚麼原因呢？

罪將人與神隔絕 SIN SEPARATES MAN FROM GOD The Bible says: 聖經說﹕ 「因為世人都犯了罪， “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans3:23) “But your iniquities have separated you from your God” (Isaiah 59:2) We have not experienced the love of God and do not have the assurance of eternal life because sin separates us from the love of God. Without exception everyone has sinned against God. Man cannot save himself. 聖經說﹕ 「因為世人都犯了罪， 虧缺了 神的榮耀。」(羅3:23) 「但你們的罪孽 使你們與 神隔絕；…」 (賽59:2上) 我們沒有經歷到 神的愛及沒 有永生的把握，是因為我們的罪 將我們與 神隔絕了。 世上每一個人都犯了罪，並沒 有分別，人不能救自己。

SIN IS 罪 ‧falling short of God’s glory. (Romans 3:23) ‧total inability to reach and please God, falling short of His standard of holiness, righteousness and love. (Romans 3:10-12) ‧breaking God’s law (1 John 3:4) ‧the innate sinful nature (e.g. pride, hatred, greed, envy, lust, etc.) compelling us to do wrong. (Romans 7:18-19) ‧是虧缺了 神的榮耀 (羅3:23) ‧罪使人完全沒有能力尋找 神， 不能討 神的喜悅，達不到 神聖潔、 公義及慈愛的標準(羅 3:10-12) ‧是違背了 神的律法 (約壹 3:4) ‧是裡面作惡的罪性 (如驕傲、毒恨、 貪心、嫉妒、情慾等) 促使我們犯罪 (羅 7:18-19) If man has sinned, what then is the consequence? 人既然有罪，那麼罪又會引至甚麼結果？

THE CONSEQUENCE OF SIN IS DEATH The Bible says: “For the wages of sin is death” (Romans6:23a) “Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment” (Hebrews 9:27) If a man commits a crime, he faces the penalty of the law. Then the penalty for breaking God’s law is death. 罪的結果是死亡 聖經說﹕ 「因為罪的工價乃是死」 (羅6:23上) 「按著定命， 人人都有一死，死後且有審判。」 (來9:27) 倘若人違反了國家的律法，尚 且會受到法律上的刑罰，何況違背 了 神的律法呢？犯罪，違背神律法 的結果就是死亡。

死亡的意思 DEATH MEANS 死亡 世人死亡是因為犯罪。 If man is to die, how then can he ‧是永遠與 神隔絕，再無盼望。 ‧是永遠在地獄 受 神忿怒的審判 (啟20:14-15) 世人死亡是因為犯罪。 世人都犯了罪，所以世人的 結局是死亡， 神公義的審判 是絕對公平的。 ‧eternal separation from God without hope. ‧eternal condemnation under the wrath of God in hell (Revelation 20:14-15) Sin causes every man to die. Since all have sinned, therefore all will die. This is the righteous judgment of God. DEATH 死亡 如果世人的結局是死亡，那麼世人 又怎樣才能經歷到 神的愛， 享有永生呢？ If man is to die, how then can he experience God’s love and have eternal life?

ETERNAL LIFE IN JESUS CHRIST 永生是在耶穌基督裡 The Bible says: “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 6:23) “ I (Jesus) give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand” (John 10:28)   God’s love for mankind is real. He does not want man to die. Therefore He has prepared eternal life for us in Jesus Christ. 聖經說﹕ 「因為罪的工價乃是死; 惟有 神的恩賜， 在我們的 主耶穌基督裡，乃是永生。」 (羅6:23) 「我(耶穌)又賜給他們永生; 他們永不滅亡， 誰也不能從我手裡把他們奪去。」 (約10:28) 神對世人的愛是真實的，祂不願意 人滅亡，所以祂在耶穌基督裡為人預備 了永生 Who is this Jesus Christ? 這耶穌基督是誰？

JESUS IS GOD, HE BECAME MAN 耶穌是 神，成為人 The Bible says: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God…The Word became flesh, and made his dwelling among us” (John 1:1, 14a) In order to provide salvation for mankind, Jesus Christ became Man. He is fully God, and fully man at the same time. 聖經說﹕ 「太初有道，道與 神同在，道就是 神… 道成了肉身。住在我們中間…」 (約1:1,14上) 為了給人預備救恩 耶穌親降人間， 道成肉身。祂是完全的 神， 同時又 是完全的人。 耶穌是無罪的 聖經說﹕ 「祂也曾凡事受過試探，與我們一樣; 只是祂沒有犯罪。」 (來4:15下) 耶穌基督是 神，且是無罪的， 所以祂有資格賜永生給世人。 JESUS IS SINLESS The Bible says: “but we have one (Jesus) who has been tempted in every way, just as we are-yet was without sin” (Hebrews 4:15b) Since Jesus is God and without sin, He is qualified to provide eternal life for sinful man. 耶穌為甚麼要成為人？祂又為人作了甚麼？ Why did Jesus have to become Man? What then has He done for us?

JESUS CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS 耶穌基督為我們的罪死 JESUS CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS The Bible says: “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8) “That Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,… that he was raised on the third day” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) Jesus Christ became Man so that He could die for our sins on the cross to bear our penalty. He was raised from the dead on the third day. The righteous demand of God was met and God now has a basis to forgive sinners. 聖經說﹕ 「惟有基督在我們還作罪人的時候， 為我們死， 神的愛就在此向我們顯明了。」 (羅5:8) 「…第一就是基督 照聖經所說，為我們的罪死了， 而且埋葬了; 又照聖經所說，第三天復活了。」 (林前15:3-4) 耶穌基督成為人，是要為人擔當罪 的刑罰死在十字架上。祂第三天後從 死裡復活。 神公義的要求得到滿足， 神便可以赦免人的罪了。

Friends, now our choice is between Eternal life and death. Which do Jesus Christ had to die because: “without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness” (Hebrews 9:22b) Jesus Christ has now provided a way for us to approach God. 耶穌基督為人死，因為: 「…若不流血，罪就不得赦免了。」 (希伯來書9:22下) 因此，耶穌便為人預備了一條 道路到 神那裡去。 朋友﹕ 現在我們有了選擇的機會— 永生與永死，您選哪一個？  Friends, now our choice is between Eternal life and death. Which do you choose? How can you obtain eternal life? 您怎樣才能得到永生呢？

BY BELIEVING IN JESUS AS SAVIOR   The Bible says: “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16) “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-not by works, so that no one can boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9)  Knowing that we are sinners, we can obtain this wonderful eternal life from God by simply believing that Jesus Christ died for our sins and accepting Him as our personal Savior. 相信耶穌基督為救主 聖經說﹕ 「神愛世人， 甚至將祂的獨生子賜給他們， 叫一切信祂的， 不至滅亡，反得永生。」 (約3:16)   「你們得救是本乎恩，也因著信; 這並不是出於自己，乃是 神所賜的; 也不是出於行為，免得有人自誇。」 (弗2:8-9) 既然知道我們是罪人，面對死亡;只要我們肯; ‧承認自己在 神面前犯了罪，面臨死亡。 ‧相信耶穌已為我們的罪死在十字架上， 又復活了。 ‧接受耶穌成為我們個人的救主。 我們便能得永生，成為 神的兒女。

Faith Is not mental knowledge alone Faith Is not mental knowledge alone. It is genuinely believing that Christ died for our sins on the cross and trusting Him alone as our Savior. (John 1:12; Acts 4:12) Friends, do you understand this wonderful gift of God? Is there any reason why you should not accept this eternal life from God? Are you willing to believe in Jesus as your Savior right now? IF YES 信心 不是單指頭腦上的知識，乃 是指內心誠實地相信主耶穌已在 十字架上為我們的罪死了，並且 真心地信靠耶穌基督為我們唯一 的救主。 (約 1:12; 徒 4:12) DEATH 死亡 朋友﹕ 您明白 神這奇妙的救恩嗎？ 您有否任何理由要拒絕 神賜的永生呢？ 您是否願意現在接受耶穌為您的救主？   若是願意…

PRAYER TO RECEIVE CHRIST If yes, through simple faith you may accept Jesus as your Savior. This prayer may convey the desire of your heart:   “Dear Jesus, I believe that you are God, the only Savior and that you had died on the cross for my sins. I want to believe and accept You as my personal Savior right now. Please forgive my sins. Thank you for saving me and giving me eternal life. In Jesus’ name, Amen.” 接受耶穌基督為救主的禱告 您若願意，現在您就可以藉著一個單 純及真誠的信心來相信，接受耶穌為 救主。或許以下的一個禱告代表了您 的心意：   主耶穌啊！ 我相信你是 神，是唯一的救主。 我相信你已經為我的罪釘死在十字 架上。 我現在願意相信你，接受你作我 的救主。求你赦免我的罪， 謝謝你把永生賜給我。 奉主耶穌基督的名祈禱，阿們。

YOUR ASSURANCE   Having truly believed in Jesus, you should know that the security of your salvation is based on: 1. The Grace and Promise of God Your eternal life (salvation) is a free gift (grace) from God. It is not earned by your good work(Ephesians 2:8-9). It is based on the promise of God and not your feelings (1 John 5:12-13) 2. The Power of God God Himself guarantees your salvation by His power. He can save you and He will bring you into His eternal glory (Romans 8:29-30). No one can snatch you from the Father’s hand (John 10:27-28). 3. The Intercession of Jesus Christ The resurrection of Jesus Christ proves that He has overcome death and can truly gives you eternal life. He is praying for you (Romans 8:34). He will keep you forever saved (Hebrews 7:25). 4. The indwelling of the Holy Spirit The moment you truly believe in Jesus as your Savior, you are saved immediately. The Holy Spirit enters and indwells in your heart permanently. He will never leave you (Ephesians 1:13-14).

救恩的確據 你已真心相信耶穌為救主，你當知道這些救恩的保障是在乎﹕ 1 救恩的確據 你已真心相信耶穌為救主，你當知道這些救恩的保障是在乎﹕ 1. 神的恩典與應許 永生(你的救恩)是從 神而來的恩典，不是用善事、好行為來強取的 (弗2:8-9). 救恩是憑 神的應許，不是憑感覺 (約壹5:12-13)。 2. 父 神的能力 父 神自己能保證您的救恩。 神有能力拯救您，亦能保守您進入祂的 榮耀裡 (羅8:29-30) 。沒有任何人、任何勢力能從父 神手裡，將您 奪去 (約10:27-28)。 3. 耶穌基督的代禱 耶穌的復活，證明祂已勝過死亡，祂能把永生賜給您。祂在天上不斷 地為您祈求 (羅8:34) ，祂能拯救您到底 (來7:25)。 4. 聖靈的內住 當您相信耶穌的那一刻，您便立刻得救。聖靈進入您的內心，永遠 住在您的心裡，絕對不離開您 (弗1:13-14)。

YOUR SPIRTUAL GROWTH New Christians are called “babes in Christ” YOUR SPIRTUAL GROWTH New Christians are called “babes in Christ”. Where there is life, there will be growth. These are the essentials for Christian spiritual growth: The Bible is the inerrant Word of God profitable for Christian growth (2 Tim 3:16). It is Spiritual food for Christians Just as milk and good food are essentials for babes.   Prayer is taking to God. It is actually telling God that you need Him and depend on Him for your daily provisions (Matt 6:11; Phili 4:6-7). It is what breathing is like to new babes. Therefore prayer should be specific and regular (1 The 5:7). The Church is the spiritual home where Christians gather regularly for worship, edification, fellowship, and witnessing. It is like the home and family to new babes. Therefore a Christian must identify with a church by   1.being baptized in a church as soon as possible (Acts 2:41) 2.attending church services regularly (Hebrews 10:25) 3. joining a church and becoming a responsible member (Acts 2:41-47).   Witnessing is telling others about Jesus Christ so that they too may receive eternal life in Jesus Christ. It is like the process of a new baby growing up into a mature man. Jesus Christ commands all Christians to share the gospel (Matt 28:19-20; Acts 1:8)

屬靈的長進 剛信主的基督徒，在基督裡是嬰孩，那裡有生命，那裡就有增長。 但是增長必須要有以下的重要因素﹕ ‧聖經 是 神的話語，是基督徒的「靈奶」，幫助基督徒的長進 (提後3:16)。 ‧禱告 是與 神談話，藉禱告您告訴 神您需要祂的帶領，供應您的需要 (太6:11; 腓4:6-7)。就如同「呼吸」一樣，禱告是基督徒向 神的呼 求，所以您要常常的祈禱 (帖前5:7)。 ‧教會 是基督徒屬靈的家，也是基督徒經常聚集、敬拜、相交及見證的地方。 教會對基督徒來說，就像家庭對嬰孩那樣重要，所以基督徒與教會有著 密切的關係﹕ 1.要盡快的(在教會裡) 接受水禮 (徒2:41) 2.經常參加教會的聚會，不可中斷 (來10:25) 3.加入一間教會，作一個忠心負責任的會友 (徒2:41-47) ‧見證 作主耶穌的見證，就是把耶穌的福音 (永生) 告訴別人。 為主作見證對基督徒來說，就好像嬰孩成長的過程一樣，耶穌基督已把 傳福音的責任交託您了 (太28:19-20; 徒1:8)。
