我是真葡萄树,我父是栽培的人。 2 凡属我不结果子的枝子,他就剪去。凡结果子的,他就修理干净,使枝子结果子更多。 3 现在你们因我讲给你们的道,已经干净了。 4 你们要常在我里面,我也常在你们里面。枝子若不常在葡萄树上,自己就不能结果子。你们若不常在我里面,也是这样。 5 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。因为离了我,你们就不能作什么。 6 人若不常在我里面,就像枝子丢在外面枯干,人拾起来,扔在火里烧了。 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. 3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4 Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. 5 ”I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. - 约翰福音 John 15:1-6

这样,凡好树都结好果子,惟独坏树结坏果子。 18 好树不能结坏果子,坏树不能结好果子。 19 凡不结好果子的树,就砍下来,丢在火里。 20 所以凭着他们的果子,就可以认出他们来。 21 凡称呼我主阿,主阿的人,不能都进天国。惟独遵行我天父旨意的人,才能进去。 22 当那日必有许多人对我说,主阿,主阿,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吗? 23 我就明明地告诉他们说,我从来不认识你们,你们这些作恶的人,离开我去吧。- 马太福音 7:17-23 Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them. 21 "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?' 23 Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!‘ – Matthew 7:17-23
創造界的管理使命Creation Mandate 神说,我们要照着我们的形像,按着我们的样式造人,使他们管理海里的鱼,空中的鸟,地上的牲畜,和全地,并地上所爬的一切昆虫。 27 神就照着自己的形像造人,乃是照着他的形像造男造女。 28 神就赐福给他们,又对他们说,要生养众多,遍满地面,治理这地。也要管理海里的鱼,空中的鸟,和地上各样行动的活物。 Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. 28 God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground.“ -创世纪 Genesis 1:26-28 弥迦书 Micah 6:6-8 雅各书 James 1:27 以弗所书 Ephesians 2:8-10

大诫命 Great Commandments 我爱你们,正如父爱我一样。你们要常在我的爱里。 10 你们若遵守我的命令,就常在我的爱里。正如我遵守了我父的命令,常在他的爱里。 11 这些事我已经对你们说了,是要叫我的喜乐,存在你们心里,并叫你们的喜乐可以满足。 12 你们要彼此相爱,像我爱你们一样,这就是我的命令。 13 人为朋友舍命,人的爱心没有比这个大的。 14 你们若遵行我所吩咐的,就是我的朋友了。 15 以后我不再称你们为仆人。因仆人不知道主人所作的事。我乃称你们为朋友。因我从我父所听见的。已经都告诉你们了。 “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father‘s commands and remain in his love. 11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. 12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command. 15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. -约翰福音 John 15:9-15 约翰福音 17:13-24 加拉太书 Galatians 5:13-25
大使命 Great Commission 耶稣进前来,对他们说,天上,地下所有的权柄,都赐给我了。 19 所以你们要去,使万民作我的门徒,奉父子圣灵的名,给他们施洗。(或作给他们施洗归于父子圣灵的名) Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, -马太福音 Matthew 28:18-19 彼得前书 1:9-12 马太福音 Matthew 5:13-16
不是你们拣选了我,是我拣选了你们,并且分派你们去结果子,叫你们的果子常存。使你们奉我的名,无论向父求什么,他就赐给你们。 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit--fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. –约翰福音 John 15:16
你们若常在我里面,我的话也常在你们里面,凡你们所愿意的,祈求就给你们成就。 8 你们多结果子,我父就因此得荣耀,你们也就是我的门徒了。 9 我爱你们,正如父爱我一样。你们要常在我的爱里。 10 你们若遵守我的命令,就常在我的爱里。正如我遵守了我父的命令,常在他的爱里。 11 这些事我已经对你们说了,是要叫我的喜乐,存在你们心里,并叫你们的喜乐可以满足。If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. 8 This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. 9 "As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love. 11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. –约翰福音 John 15:7-11
