新命令 A New Command 约翰福音 John 13:34-35
我赐给你们一条新命令,乃是叫你们彼此相爱;我怎样爱你们,你们也要相爱。你们若有彼此相爱的心,众人因此就认出你们是我的门徒了。(约十三:34-35) A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." (John 13:34-35)
为何这是新命令? Why is this a new command? 我们还没有行出来 We have not applied it 我们还未达到神的要求 We have not fulfilled God’s expectation 彼此相爱有新方式 There is a new way to love one another
耶稣的爱 Jesus’ Love 不离不弃 Unwavering 祂既然爱世间属自己的人,就爱他们到底。(约十三:1) Having loved his own who were in the world, he now showed them the full extent of his love. (John 13:1b)
耶稣的爱 Jesus’ Love 谦卑服侍 Humble & Serving 因为人子来,并不是要受人的服侍,乃是要服侍人。(可十:45) For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve. (Mark 10:45)
耶稣的爱 Jesus’ Love 为人着想 Unselfish 我是你们的主,你们的夫子,尚且洗你们的脚,你们也当彼此洗脚。我给你们作了榜样,叫你们照着我向你们所做的去做。(约十三:14-15) Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. (John 13: 14-15)
耶稣的新命令对我们有何意义? What does Jesus’ new command mean to us? 凡事不可亏欠人,惟有彼此相爱要常以为亏欠,因为爱人的就完全了律法。(罗十三:8) Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for he who loves his fellowman has fulfilled the law. (Romans 13:8)
如何实践新命令? How shall we apply the new command? 彼此相爱的心 A heart to love one another 你要保守你心,胜过保守一切,因为一生的果效由心发出(箴四:23) Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life. (Proverbs 4:23)
如何操练彼此相爱的心? How shall we apply the new command? 勤于为他人祷告 Pray for others regularly 参加教会祷告会 Attend prayer meetings 留意他人的需要 Heed to others’ needs 委身小组团契 Commit to a cell group 参与侍奉 Involve in church ministries 教会需要更多的同工 More co-workers are needed
