Hallelujah! Our first post






Thank the Lord that we are willing to begin this group-bible-study-programme, though living in different places, but still in one heart one mind to zealously SERVE the Lord Jesus.




We are the Salt and the Light of the World, as Jesus has wanted us to be.

We are in the world, yet not of the world.
We are in the darkness shining like a lamp to others' feet, leading them to the way of Salvation
We are the salt which seasons godliness in the depraved world,
and preserves human morale from decay.

This is our aim, isn't it?
Unfortunately, today i just heard from a conversation with my dad and mom, an Indon Brother & a couple, noting that many brothers and sisters who WERE once fervent and good vessels of God, ARE now NO LONGER here in church just because of a small challenge in faith---change in environment.

We are here to leave our footprints, to give ourselves an answer to this very question, will we be like them in the future? Who knows? Well, only God and you yourself.









感谢主,我们能组织这“团体查经计划”。虽然我们住在不同地方,但我们同心同意热心地侍奉主耶稣。




我们是世上的盐和光,也就是耶稣对我们的希望。



我们生在这世上,但并不是属世的。



我们在黑暗中犹如灯笼照亮他人的脚,带领他们走这得救的道路。



我们是那在这沦落地世界里调出神圣的盐,



及保守人道以防止衰变。





这是我们的目的,对不对?




不幸的,今天我刚听到爸爸和妈妈的谈话,一位印尼弟兄和他的家人,曾经是非常热情的弟兄姐妹也是神的好器皿,可惜,好景不长在,因为一个小小地环境的改变,现在已经不在教会了。




我们在这里留下我们的脚印,对这个问题给我们自己一个答案,将来我们会不会像他们一样?谁知道?哼,只有神和你自己知道……

  2. 希望我们这些盐别失去咸味,不然就会被丢在外面被人践踏;我们这些光也别把自己的光亮隐藏起来,要把自己的光好像建在山上的塔和桌上的灯,照亮在世人前面---就是叫别人看到自己的好行为,便将荣耀归给我们天上的父。(Matthew 5:13~16)
    希望我们弟兄姐妹能互相扶持,当有人软弱,我们应当去关怀和扶他/她一把,别让他/她一蹶不振。我们要时常祷告与读经,别只顾着俗世的事情,别使我们与神隔着一道或很多道墙,随着时间墙会越来越厚,我们要一起努力的拆除那阻挡的墙(BREAK THE WALL TOGETHER)^^

  3. Aaron's comment during June 11, 2009 12:00 PM :

    hope our didnt loses its flavor, if it is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men; we as the light of the world also do not be hidden, but to set on the hill and the lamp stand, and shine before men --- that others may see our own good works and glorify our Father in heaven. (太5:13~16)

    Hope our brethren are able to uphold 1 another, when some1 is weak, we should care him/her and lend him/her a hand,dont let him/her to feel frustrated and spiritless to strive again. We should always pray & red bible, dont just mind on worldly things. Let there be no wall or walls to seperate God and us, which will grow thicker as time past. We should put great effort to get rip of those hinder walls (一起来打破所有的阻挡墙)^^

  4. 如果是真的有心要帮助跌倒的弟兄姐妹,就不要大肆渲染他们的名字。这样只会让人越来越尴尬,最后他们也不想来教会了。
    试问,你们这样是帮他们还是落井下石?

    锦上添花大家都会,有谁是真正的雪中送炭?
    大家只会用“口”来讲而已,讲讲讲,谁都可以讲啦~
    有没有人去了解为什么信徒会离开教会?
    有吗?有没有?
    没有的话就不要在这边讲而已!
    教会的人就是喜欢批评跟论断!
    我看不到教会的信徒有耶稣的样式,只会批评一大堆,然后做小圈子。

    很多信徒都是表面一套,心里又是另一套!
    包括传道人也是一样,根本就是人面兽心。

  5. 非常对不起,我是初学者,没留意到这点...抱谦,我诚心诚意的向你道歉,也向当事人道歉.
    也非常谢谢你的指点,这真的是我的错,我的疏忽. 真不因该这样写. 非常非常抱谦... 请原谅...

    你说得没错,我们因该要雪中送炭.因该要了解他为什麽离开教会.但,我相信长执传道已经做了调查.我们只是小小的一根嫩枝,只能为他祷告.



    至于那些表面一套,心里另一套的,和人面兽心的传道人.我们也无能为力.再次向你抱谦...他们的问题,我们不能解决。。。如果他们做错了。求神指点他们。


    对,我们每个人都有软弱,不能显出基督的样式,真对不起神...
    因此,我们就当努力追求!所以,我们成立了这个小组.改进我们的软弱!这就是我们的目的...


    谢谢你的指点,如果有任何其他的错误,请再留下Comment好让我们知道,然后改进。

    请原谅我的无知&无能.
    对不起...
