路9:23 耶稣又对众人说：若有人要跟从我，就当舍己，天天背起他的十字架来、跟从我。Then he said to them all: If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. (Luk 9:23) 加6:14 但我断不以别的夸口，只夸我们主耶稣基督的十字架。因这十字架，就我而论，世界已经钉在十字架上；就世界而论，我已经钉在十字架上。May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. (Gal 6:14)

十字架的旌旗The banner of Cross 出17:15 摩西筑了一座坛，起名叫“耶和华尼西”（“耶和华是我旌旗”）。Moses built an altar and called it The LORD is my Banner. (Exo 17:15) 诗60:4 你把旌旗赐给敬畏你的人，可以为真理扬起来。But for those who fear you, you have raised a banner to be unfurled against the bow. Selah (Psa 60:4) 林前2:2 因为我曾定了主意，在你们中间不知道别的，只知道耶稣基督并他钉十字架。For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. (1Co 2:2)

The Secret of Paul’s Victorious Life 保罗的得胜生命秘诀 The Secret of Paul’s Victorious Life 加2:20 我已经与基督同钉十字架。现在活着的，不再是我，乃是基督在我里面活着。并且我如今在肉身活着，是因信　神的儿子而活，他是爱我，为我舍己。 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. （Gal 2:20)

（二）十字架乃是向世界死的记号 Cross signifying death to the world 加6:14 但我断不以别的夸口，只夸我们主耶稣基督的十字架。因这十字架，就我而论，世界已经钉在十字架上；就世界而论，我已经钉在十字架上。May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. (Gal 6:14) 世界向我已死 For me the world is dead ； 我对世界亦亡 For the world I am dead

约壹2:15-17 不要爱世界和世界上的事。人若爱世界，爱父的心就不在他里面了。 因为凡世界上的事，就像肉体的情欲，眼目的情欲，并今生的骄傲，都不是从父来的，乃是从世界来的。 这世界和其上的情欲都要过去，惟独遵行　神旨意的，是永远常存。 Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world--the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does--comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.(1Jo 2:15~17)

The whole system that is against God 不敬虔 godless: god-less 世界：与神敌对的整个体系 The whole system that is against God 不敬虔 godless: god-less 1）没有神（Without God） 2）神越来越少(Less and Less of God) 世界上的事：肉体的情欲，眼目的情欲，并今生的骄傲Everything in the world--the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does. 以钱财为代表：Money and Materials as the the representative 太6:24 一个人不能事奉两个主。不是恶这个爱那个，就是重这个轻那个。你们不能又事奉　神，又事奉玛门（注：“玛门”是“财利”的意思）。

亚伯拉罕与罗得 Abraham & Lot 亚伯兰说: “遍地不都在你眼前么?请你离开我，你向左，我就向右；你向右，我就向左。” （创13:9） Is not the whole land before you? Let‘s part company. If you go to the left, I’ll go to the right; if you go to the right, I‘ll go to the left.“(Gen 13:9) 凡是你的东西，就是一根线、一根鞋带，我都不 拿，免得你说：我使亚伯兰富足。（创14：23） that I will accept nothing belonging to you, not even a thread or the thong of a sandal, so that you will never be able to say, 'I made Abram rich.' （ Gen 14:23 ）

以利沙和基哈西 Elisha & Gehazi 王下5:26-27 以利沙对他说：这岂是受银子、衣裳、买橄榄园、葡萄园、牛羊、仆婢的时候呢？ But Elisha said to him, “Is this the time to take money, or to accept clothes, olive groves, vineyards, flocks, herds, or menservants and maidservants? Naaman‘s leprosy will cling to you and to your descendants forever.”（2 King 5:26-27） 多马∙亚圭那（Thomas Aquinas, 1225-1274)

腓3:7-8 只是我先前以为与我有益的，我现在因基督都当作有损的。不但如此，我也将万事当作有损的，因我以认识我主基督耶稣为至宝。我为他已经丢弃万事，看作粪土，为要得着基督。 But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ (Php 3:7~8) 伯25:6 何况如虫的人，如蛆的世人呢How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?

The Cross signifying death to Sin （三）十字架乃是向罪死的记号 The Cross signifying death to Sin 罗6:6 (和合)因为知道我们的旧人，和他同钉十字架，使罪身灭绝，叫我们不再作罪的奴仆。(新译)我们知道，我们的旧人已经与基督同钉十字架，使罪身丧失机能，使我们不再作罪的奴仆。For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin—(Rom 6:6) 罗6:11 这样，你们向罪也当看自己是死的；向　神在基督耶稣里，却当看自己是活的。In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. (Rom 6:11)

彼前4:1 基督既在肉身受苦，你们也当将这样的心志作为兵器，因为在肉身受过苦的，就已经与罪断绝了。Therefore, since Christ suffered in his body, arm yourselves also with the same attitude, because he who has suffered in his body is done with sin. (1Pe 4:1) 伯36:21 你要谨慎，不可重看罪孽，因你选择罪孽过于选择苦难。Beware of turning to evil, which you seem to prefer to affliction. (Job 36:21) 来5:8 他虽然为儿子、还是因所受的苦难学了顺从．5:95:9 他既得以完全、就为凡顺从他的人、成了永远得救的根源．

-罪不能再作主 For sin shall not be your master a) 脱去、弃绝： 西3:8 但现在你们要弃绝这一切的事、以及恼恨、忿怒、恶毒、〔或作阴毒〕毁谤、并口中污秽的言语。But now you must rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips. (Col 3:8) b)治死 西3:5 所以要治死你们在地上的肢体．就如淫乱、污秽、邪情、恶欲、和贪婪、贪婪就与拜偶像一样。 Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. （Col 3:5) 来5:8 他虽然为儿子、还是因所受的苦难学了顺从．5:95:9 他既得以完全、就为凡顺从他的人、成了永远得救的根源．

2)舍己表现在愿意担当别人的罪上：to bear the sins of others 加1:4 基督照我们父　神的旨意为我们的罪舍己，要救我们脱离这罪恶的世代。who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, (Gal 1:4) 丈夫爱妻子，为妻子舍命 （要她的命）（为婚姻祷告；） 属灵的功课在家学、学到家；

3)舍己在家里：to bear the cross at home 路9:23 耶稣又对众人说：若有人要跟从我，就当舍己，天天背起他的十字架来，跟从我。Then he said to them all: "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. (Luk 9:23) 丈夫爱妻子，为妻子舍命 （要她的命）（为婚姻祷告；） 属灵的功课在家学、学到家；

弗5:25 你们作丈夫的，要爱你们的妻子，正如基督爱教会，为教会舍己。 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her (Eph 5:25) 弗5:28 丈夫也当照样爱妻子，如同爱自己的身子，爱妻子便是爱自己了。In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. (Eph 5:28)

加6:17 从今以后，人都不要搅扰我。因为我身上带着耶稣的印记。 Finally, let no one cause me trouble, for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus. (Gal 6:17）
