1 神與禱告系列之五 提前(1Tim) 2:1-7 & 出 (Exod) 35
God and the Ministry of Intersession Wrath, Mediator and Salvation 神與代求事工 神與禱告系列之五 提前(1Tim) 2:1-7 & 出 (Exod) 35

2 提前1Tim 2:1-7 First of all, then, I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, (2) for kings and all who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. (3) This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, (4) who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. (5) For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, (6) who gave Himself as a ransom for all, the testimony given at the proper time. (7) For this I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying) as a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

3 約 Joh 3:35-36 The Father loves the Son and has given all things into His hand. (36) He who believes on the Son has everlasting life, and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides upon him. 父愛子，已將萬有交在他手裡。 (36)信子的人有永生；不信子的人得不著永生（原文作不得見永生），神的震怒常在他身上。

4 God’s righteousness 詩 Psa 51:4
Against You, You only, have I sinned, and done evil in Your sight; that You might be justified when You speak, and be clear when You judge. 我向你犯罪，惟獨得罪了你；在你眼前行了這惡，以致你責備我的時候顯為公義，判斷我的時候顯為清正。

5 How God is / 神是如何的 出 Exo 34:6-7
And Jehovah passed by before him and proclaimed, Jehovah! Jehovah God, merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, (7) keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and who will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of fathers on the sons, and on the sons of sons, to the third and to the fourth generation. 耶和華在他面前宣告說：「耶和華，耶和華，是有憐憫有恩典的神，不輕易發怒，並有豐盛的慈愛和誠實， (7) 為千萬人存留慈愛，赦免罪孽、過犯，和罪惡，萬不以有罪的為無罪，必追討他的罪，自父及子，直到三、四代。」

6 Moses’ Intersession 出 Exodus 32:11-14
(11) 摩西便懇求耶和華他的神說：「耶和華啊，你為什麼向你的百姓發烈怒呢？這百姓是你用大力和大能的手從埃及地領出來的。 (12) 為什麼使埃及人議論說『他領他們出去，是要降禍與他們，把他們殺在山中，將他們從地上除滅』？求你轉意，不發你的烈怒，後悔，不降禍與你的百姓。 (13) 求你記念你的僕人亞伯拉罕、以撒、以色列。你曾指著自己起誓說：『我必使你們的後裔像天上的星那樣多，並且我所應許的這全地，必給你們的後裔，他們要永遠承受為業。』」 (14) 於是耶和華後悔，不把所說的禍降與他的百姓。

7 Mediatory Ministry of Moses 出 Exodus 32:30-35
(30) 到了第二天，摩西對百姓說：「你們犯了大罪。我如今要上耶和華那裡去，或者可以為你們贖罪。」 (31) 摩西回到耶和華那裡，說：「唉！這百姓犯了大罪，為自己做了金像。 (32) 倘或你肯赦免他們的罪‧‧‧‧不然，求你從你所寫的冊上塗抹我的名。」 (33) 耶和華對摩西說：「誰得罪我，我就從我的冊上塗抹誰的名。 (34) 現在你去領這百姓，往我所告訴你的地方去，我的使者必在你前面引路；只是到我追討的日子，我必追討他們的罪。」 (35) 耶和華殺百姓的緣故是因他們同亞倫做了牛犢。

8 Mediatory Ministry of Moses

9 Jesus the Ultimate Mediator

11 Our Mediatory Ministry
We are told to take on the ministry of a mediator. On behalf of all we can: Make entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings Pray for the well-being of others and their salvation. Lead people to Jesus, the one mediator between God, who is salvation.
