1 SERVING GOD: A CHARITABLE SECRET 服事神:在暗中行善
Matthew 馬太福音 6:1-18 EFC of Orange County July 31, 2011

2 Matthew 太 5:20, NIV For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 我告訴你們， 你們的義若不勝於文士和法利賽人的義， 斷不能進天國。

3 不可將善事行在人的面前，故意叫他們看見，
Matthew 太 6:1, NIV “Be careful not to do your acts of righteousness before men, to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.” 你們要小心， 不可將善事行在人的面前，故意叫他們看見， 若是這樣，就不能得你們天父的賞賜了。

4 TRUE VS. FALSE RIGHTEOUSNESS 真公義與假公義
Example #1: Charity 例 # 1: 慈善

5 Matthew 6:2-4, NIV “So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done is secret, will reward you.”

6 太6:2-4 所以，你施捨的時候，不可在你前面吹號， 像那假冒為善的人在會堂裡和街道上所行的， 故意要得人的榮耀。我實在告訴你們， 他們已經得了他們的賞賜。 你施捨的時候，不要叫左手知道右手所做的， 要叫你施捨的事行在暗中。 你父在暗中察看，必然報答你。

7 TRUE VS. FALSE RIGHTEOUSNESS 真公義與假公義
Example #1: Charity 例 # 1: 慈善 Give like you’re giving for God’s approval alone!施捨時， 要單求神的悅納 Example #2: Prayer 例 # 2 禱告

8 Matthew 6:5-8, NIV “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.”

9 太6:5-8 你們禱告的時候，不可像那假冒為善的人， 愛站在會堂裡和十字路口上禱告，故意叫人 看見。我實在告訴你們，他們已經得了他們 的賞賜。你禱告的時候，要進你的內屋，關 上門，禱告你在暗中的父；你父在暗中察看 ，必然報答你。你們禱告，不可像外邦人， 用許多重複話，他們以為話多了必蒙垂聽。 你們不可效法他們；因為你們沒有祈求以先 ，你們所需用的，你們的父早已知道了。

11 Matthew 6:16-18, NIV “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show men they are fasting. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to men that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”

12 太 6:16-18 「你們禁食的時候，不可像那假冒為善的人， 臉上帶著愁容；因為他們把臉弄得難看， 故意叫人看出他們是禁食。我實在告訴你們， 他們已經得了他們的賞賜。你禁食的時候， 要梳頭洗臉，不叫人看出你禁食來， 只叫你暗中的父看見；你父在暗中察看， 必然報答你。」

15 Luke 5:31-32 “Jesus answered them, ‘It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.’”

16 耶穌對他們說： 無病的人用不著醫生； 有病的人才用得著。 我來本不是召義人悔改， 乃是召罪人悔改。
