3Shortly after His Resurrection, the Savior made a prophecy that must have been troubling to Peter.

3救主復活後不久作的一項預言想必令彼得相當困擾。

4He said that when Peter was old, he would be carried “whither [he] wouldest not … , signifying by what death he should glorify God” (John 21:18–19).

4祂說彼得年老的時候,會被帶到「〔他〕不願意去的地方……,指著彼得要怎樣死,榮耀神」(約翰福音21:18-19)。

5When Peter wrote his epistles, he knew that this prophesied martyrdom was near: “Shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me” (2 Peter 1:14).

5彼得在寫這些書信的時候,知道這個預言所提的殉教近了:「我脫離這帳棚的時候快到了,正如我們主耶穌基督所指示我的」(彼得後書1:14)。

6Unfortunately, such severe persecution was common for the Saints in Roman provinces, to whom Peter was writing (see 1 Peter 1:1).

6不幸的是,對於收信的羅馬各省聖徒而言,如此嚴重的迫害是很普遍的(見彼得前書1:1),

7And yet his words were not filled with fear or pessimism.

7不過他的話裡並沒有充滿恐懼或悲觀,

8Instead, he taught the Saints to “greatly rejoice,” even though they were “in heaviness through manifold temptations.”

8相反地,他反而教導聖徒要「大有喜樂」,雖然他們「在百般的試煉中暫時憂愁。」

9He counseled them to remember that “the trial of [their] faith” would lead to “praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ” and to “the salvation of [their] souls” (1 Peter 1:6–7, 9).

9他勸告聖徒要記得「〔他們〕的信心既被試驗」,就會「在耶穌基督顯現的時候得著稱讚、榮耀、尊貴」,使「〔他們的〕靈魂〔得〕……救恩〕」(彼得前書1:6-7,9)。

10Peter’s faith must have been comforting to those early Saints, as it is encouraging to Saints today, who are also “partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, [we] may be glad also with exceeding joy” (1 Peter 4:13).

10彼得的信心必定安慰了那些早期的聖徒,也同樣鼓舞了今日的聖徒,兩者都「與基督一同受苦,使〔他們〕在他榮耀顯現的時候,也可以歡喜快樂」(彼得前書4:13)。

個人經文研讀的建議:我可以在遭逢考驗和苦難時尋得喜樂。(11-16)

個人經文研讀的建議
1 Peter 1:3–9; 2:19–24; 3:14–17; 4:12–19
彼得前書1:3-9;2:19-24;3:14-17;4:12-19
I can find joy during times of trial and suffering.
我可以在遭逢考驗和苦難時尋得喜樂。

11At first glance, it might seem strange that Peter used words like rejoice, happy, glory, and exceeding joy in association with words we typically associate with hardship: heaviness, temptations, grief, fiery trial, and sufferings (see 1 Peter 1:6; 2:19; 4:12–13).

11彼得將歡喜、快樂、榮耀、歡喜快樂等字眼,與憂愁、試煉、苦楚、火煉的試驗、忍受等跟苦難相關的詞語一起使用(見彼得前書1:6;2:19;4:12-13),乍看之下可能會覺得很奇怪。

12Peter’s message to the early Saints was the same message taught by President Russell M. Nelson: “Saints can be happy under every circumstance. …

12彼得給早期聖徒的信息,與羅素·納爾遜會長所教導的信息相同:「聖徒……在各種情況下都〔能〕喜樂。……

13When the focus of our lives is on God’s plan of salvation … and Jesus Christ and His gospel, we can feel joy regardless of what is happening—or not happening—in our lives.

13我們若將生活的重心放在……神的救恩計畫,以及耶穌基督和祂的福音上,那麼,無論發生什麼——或沒有發生什麼——我們都會感到喜樂。

14Joy comes from and because of Him. He is the source of all joy” .

14喜樂來自於神,也因神而來。祂是一切喜樂的泉源」。

15(“Joy and Spiritual Survival,” Ensign or Liahona, Nov. 2016, 82)

16As you read 1 Peter 1:3–9; 2:19–24; 3:14–17; 4:12–19, what gives you hope that you can find joy even in the midst of difficult circumstances?

16研讀彼得前書1:3-9、2:19-24、3:14-17、4:12-19時,有哪些經文帶給你希望,讓你知道即使在艱困的環境中仍能尋得喜樂?

福音會傳給死者,讓他們可以得到公正的審判。(17-23)

1 Peter 3:18–20; 4:1–6
彼得前書3:18-20;4:1-6
The gospel is preached to the dead so they can be judged justly.
福音會傳給死者,讓他們可以得到公正的審判。

17One day, each person will stand at the judgment bar and “give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead” (1 Peter 4:5).

17有一天,每個人都會在站審判欄前,「在那將要審判活人死人的主面前交帳」(彼得前書4:5)。

18Some might wonder how God can judge all people fairly when their opportunities to understand and live the gospel are so different.

18有些人可能會懷疑,每個人理解和奉行福音的機會如此不同,主如何能公正地審判所有的人。

19Notice the doctrine that Peter taught in 1 Peter 3:18–20; 4:6 to help the Saints in his day understand that God’s judgments will be just.

19彼得為了幫助當時的聖徒了解神的審判會是公正的,請注意他在彼得前書3:18-20、4:6所教導的教義。

20How do these verses strengthen your faith in God’s fairness and justice?

20這幾節經文如何增強你的信心,相信神的公平與公正?

21To study this doctrine further, explore Doctrine and Covenants 138, a revelation President Joseph F. Smith received as he pondered these writings of Peter.

21為了更深入研讀此項教義,請瀏覽教義和聖約第138篇,本篇是約瑟F.·斯密會長在沉思彼得的寫作時所得到的啟示。

22What blessings come to those who make the ordinances of the gospel available to their family members who have died and are still waiting for these ordinances?

22那些幫助過世家人接受等待已久的福音教儀的人,會得到哪些祝福?

藉著耶穌基督的大能,我可以培養我的神性特質。(24-31)

2 Peter 1:1–11
彼得後書1:1-11
Through the power of Jesus Christ, I can develop my divine nature.
藉著耶穌基督的大能,我可以培養我的神性特質。

24Do you ever feel that becoming like Jesus Christ and developing His attributes is not possible?

24你是否曾覺得要成為像基督一樣,並培養祂具有的品格是不可能的?

25Elder Robert D. Hales offered this encouraging thought about how we can develop Christlike attributes: “The attributes of the Savior … are interwoven characteristics, added one to another, which develop in us in interactive ways.

25羅拔·海爾斯長老提出了以下這個鼓舞人心的想法,讓我們知道可以如何培養基督般的品格:「我們看到救主的各項品格……互相交織、提升,以互相效力的方式在我們的裡面發展。

26In other words, we cannot obtain one Christlike characteristic without also obtaining and influencing others.

26換句話說,我們獲得某一項基督般的特質,必定會產生影響,連帶獲得其他的特質。

27As one characteristic becomes strong, so do many more” .

27一項特質增強以後,其他特質也會跟著增強」

28(“Becoming a Disciple of Our Lord Jesus Christ,” Ensign or Liahona, May 2017, 46) 。

28(「成為我們主耶穌基督的門徒」,2017年5月,利阿賀拿,第46頁)

29Each Christlike quality we develop helps us weave a spiritual tapestry of discipleship.

29我們培養的每一項基督般特質,都在幫助我們編製門徒的靈性織錦。

30Consider reading 2 Peter 1:1–11 in conjunction with Elder Hales’s message. What do you learn from these two Apostles that helps you in your efforts to become more Christlike?

30研讀海爾斯長老的信息時,可以同時研讀彼得後書1:1-11。你從這兩位使徒身上學到哪些事,讓你努力變得更像基督?
