記錄心得感想

2When the gospel began to spread in Ephesus, it caused “no small stir” (Acts 19:23) among the Ephesians.

2福音一開始在以弗所傳開時,在以弗所人中間引起的「擾亂不小」(使徒行傳19:23)。

3Local craftsmen who produced shrines to a pagan goddess saw Christianity as a threat to their livelihood, and soon “they were full of wrath, … and the whole city was filled with confusion” (see Acts 19:27–29).

3當地建造異教女神神廟的工匠,視基督教為他們謀生事業的一大威脅,於是他們很快就「怒氣填胸,……滿城都轟動起來」(見使徒行傳19:27-29)。

4Imagine being a new convert to the gospel in such a setting.

4想像一下在這樣的環境下,身為福音的新歸信者會如何呢?

5Many Ephesians did accept and live the gospel amid this “uproar” (Acts 19:40), and Paul assured them that “Christ … is our peace” (Ephesians 2:13–14).

5許多以弗所人確實在這樣的「擾亂」(使徒行傳19:40)中接受並奉行福音,而保羅向他們保證,「基督……〔會〕使我們和睦」(以弗所書2:13-14)。

6These words, along with his invitation to “let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away” (Ephesians 4:31) seem as timely and comforting now as they were then.

6保羅的這段話連同他所提出的邀請:「〔讓〕一切苦毒、惱恨、忿怒、嚷鬧、毀謗,……都當……除掉」(以弗所書4:31),不僅在當時很受用,在今日也同樣能帶給人安慰。

7For the Ephesians, as for you, the strength to face adversity comes “in the Lord, and in the power of his might” (Ephesians 6:10–13).

7無論對以弗所人或是對你而言,面對反對勢力的力量來自於「主,〔和〕倚賴他的大能大力」(以弗所書6:10-13)。

個人經文研讀的建議:神是否早已在祂的兒女中「揀選」或「預定」某些人才能得救?(08-16)

個人經文研讀的建議
Ephesians 1:4–11, 17–19
以弗所書1:4-11,17-19
Has God “chosen” or “predestinated” some of His children to be saved?
神是否早已在祂的兒女中「揀選」或「預定」某些人才能得救?

8Paul spoke of the Saints being “predestinated” by God and “chosen … before the foundation of the world” to be His people.

8保羅談到有些聖徒被神「預定」,「從創立世界以前,……〔就已蒙〕揀選」成為祂的子民。

9As President Henry B. Eyring has noted, the fact that so many people live and die without the chance to receive the gospel causes some to “conclude that God must have determined in advance which of His children He would save and made the gospel available to them, while those who never heard the gospel simply were not ‘chosen.’

9亨利·艾寧會長說,由於有非常多的人活在世上時並沒有機會接受福音就死去,有些人因此就驟下「結論〔說〕,神必定已事先決定祂會拯救祂的哪些兒女,並讓他們獲得福音,而從未聽過福音的人也就是未蒙『揀選』。

10But … God’s plan is much more loving and just than that.

10但……神的計畫遠遠比他們所認為的更為慈愛和公正。

11Our Heavenly Father is anxious to gather and bless all of His family”.

11我們的天父急切地想要聚集祂所有的家人,並且祝福他們」。

12(“Gathering the Family of God,” Ensign or Liahona, May 2017, 20–21)

12(「聚集神的家人」,2017年5月,利阿賀拿,第20-21頁)

13All of God’s children can accept the gospel and its ordinances because of the work performed for the dead in holy temples.

13由於聖殿中為死者所執行的事工,神所有的兒女都可以接受福音及其教儀。

14Although no one is predestined to be saved or not saved, modern revelation teaches that some were chosen or “foreordained” in the premortal world to fulfill certain responsibilities here on earth.

14雖然神並沒有預定誰可以得救,誰不能得救,但現代的啟示教導,有些人在前生就已蒙揀選或「預定」要來世上完成特定的職責。

15This includes the responsibility that all Latter-day Saints have to share the gospel and help all of God’s children on both sides of the veil come to Christ.

15這些職責包括所有後期聖徒都要分享福音,並幫助神在帷幕兩邊所有的兒女歸向基督。

16(See “Foreordination,” Gospel Topics, topics.lds.org.)

16(見「預立」,福音主題,topics.lds.org。)

神會使「一切所有的都在基督裏面同歸於一」。(17-19)

Ephesians 1:10
以弗所書1:10
God will “gather together in one all things in Christ.”
神會使「一切所有的都在基督裏面同歸於一」。

17Have you ever wondered what “the dispensation of the fulness of times” is or what it means to “gather together in one all things in Christ”?

17你是否曾想過「在日期滿足的時候」指的是什麼?而使「一切所有的都在基督裡面同歸於一」又是什麼意思?

18As you ponder these phrases, read the following scriptures: Ephesians 4:13; 2 Nephi 30:7–8; Doctrine and Covenants 110:11–16; 112:30–32; 128:18–21.

18一邊沉思這些詞句,一邊研讀以下經文:以弗所書4:13;尼腓二書30:7-8;教義和聖約110:11-16;112:30-32;128:18-21。

19You may feel inspired to write your own explanations of these phrases.

19你可能會受到啟發,用自己的話寫下這些詞語的解釋。

教會是建造在使徒和先知的根基上,並有耶穌基督為首要房角石。(20-24)

Ephesians 2:19–22; 4:11–16
以弗所書2:19-22;4:11-16
The Church is founded on apostles and prophets, and Jesus Christ is the chief cornerstone.
教會是建造在使徒和先知的根基上,並有耶穌基督為首要房角石。

20Reading Paul’s teachings about apostles and prophets can help you prepare to hear the messages of modern apostles and prophets during general conference.

20研讀保羅對於使徒和先知的教導,會幫助你作好準備,在總會大會期間聆聽現代使徒和先知的信息。

21According to Ephesians 2:19–22; 4:11–16, why do we have prophets and apostles?

21根據以弗所書2:19-22,4:11-16,為何我們要有先知和使徒?

22How have their teachings helped you not be “carried about with every wind of doctrine”?

22他們的教導如何幫助你不被「一切異教之風搖動」?

23See also Acts 4:10–12.

23亦見使徒行傳4:10-12。

25研讀以弗所書5:21~6:4時,你的腦海中浮現哪些關於如何鞏固與家人關係的想法?

26It is important to note that Paul’s words in Ephesians 5:22 were written in the context of the social customs of his era.

26注意有一點很重要,保羅是依他所處時代的社會風俗背景寫下以弗所書5:22這段話。

27Prophets and apostles today teach that men are not superior to women and that spouses should be “equal partners”.

27今日的先知和使徒教導我們,男人的地位並沒有高於女人,夫妻應是「平等的夥伴」。

28(see “The Family: A Proclamation to the World,” Ensign or Liahona, May 2017, 145)

28(見「家庭:致全世界文告」,2017年5月,利阿賀拿,第145頁)

29Even so, you can still find relevant counsel in Ephesians 5:23–33, especially if you are married or preparing for marriage.

29雖然如此,你仍然可以從以弗所書5:22-23中找到與生活相關的勸告,特別如果你是已婚,或正準備要結婚。

30For example, how does Christ show His love for the Saints?

30例如,基督如何向聖徒表達祂的愛?

31What does this imply about how husbands should treat their wives?

31這意味著丈夫應該如何對待他的妻子?

39Through the latter-day Restoration, God is gathering all things in one, including all the principles and ordinances of the gospel.
