基督教的教主耶稣说:“所以我告诉你们、凡你们祷告祈求的、无论是什么、只要信是

圣经上我们也可以看到例子,譬如祷告求雨:

在地上。
18. 他又祷告、天就降下雨来、地也生出土产。
我们也经常看到基督徒们的大批见证,譬如什么找工作/绿卡不顺,虔诚祷告,工作/
绿卡到手,赞美耶和华的大能;生病了,虔诚祷告,病好了,不去赞叹医生的圣手,归

responded. The miracle wouldn't unfold for several days, but the timer was set
when the appeal was made.
Ever wonder where your prayers go when they leave your lips?
"...there was silence in heaven and another angel came and stood at the altar,
holding a golden pan with the prayers of all God's people. The angel put this
offering before the throne. The smoke went up to God with the prayers of God's
people" (Revelation 8:1-4 |

今日的经文:
【全年讀經進度】使徒行傳11
【今日默想禱讀經文】徒 11:8-12
我說:主阿,這是不可的!凡俗而不潔淨的物從來沒有入過我的口。 第二次,有
聲音從天上說:神所潔淨的,你不可當作俗物。這樣一連三次,就都收回天上去了。
正當那時,有三個人站在我們所住的房門前,是從該撒利亞差來見我的。 聖靈吩
咐我和他們同去,不要疑惑。
【今日信息】正當那時(At that very moment) By Rev. Andrew Tsai
彼得的服事達到巔峰的時候,忽然遇到一個試煉,這是一個生命的關口,也是他服
事的關口。如果他過得去,他的服事將會爬上另一個高峰,但是如果過不去,他的服事
就會將近黃昏。
是甚麼關口呢?就是他要跨過他一貫服事的對象--猶太同胞,進入外邦人的服事。
這在當初可不是件小事,因為彼得是當時教會的領袖,他的任何一個動作,都會帶動教
會的走向,但是同時也表示,他將遇到前所未有的阻力。
不論是教會領袖,或是機構公司行號的領導者,身上總會肩負著維護傳統的責任。

(用左鍵按下藍色的經文,該段聖經就會自動出現)
【今日默想禱讀經文】民 15:37-41
耶和華曉諭摩西說:你吩咐以色列人,叫他們世世代代在衣服邊上做繸子,又在
底邊的繸子上釘一根藍細帶子。 你們佩帶這繸子,好叫你們看見就記念遵行耶和華一
切的命令,不隨從自己的心意、眼目行邪淫,像你們素常一樣;使你們記念遵行我一切
的命令,成為聖潔,歸與你們的 神。我是耶和華─你們的 神,曾把你們從埃及地領
出來,要作你們的 神。我是耶和華─你們的 神。
【今日信息】 一根藍細帶子 By Rev. Andrew Tsai
當我們去到以色列時,看到正統的猶太人,身穿黑衣,頭戴黑帽,衣服的下襬有
一條藍細帶子。我們很好奇,前往問其中一人,有關這條帶子的意義,這猶太人很驚奇
的看著我們,不明白為何我們要問?我也很懷疑,他是否知道這條帶子的意義?
就好像我們看到纺間所賣的金燈台,有七根的,也有九根的,但是你問店家,聖經
裡不是只有七根嗎?為何你們會賣九根的呢?很多人都說不出個所以然來。
許多傳統的遺傳,人們至今還守著,但... 阅读全帖 |

When my daughter said her bedtime prayers, she would bless every family
member, every friend, and every animal. For several weeks, after we had
finished the nightly prayer, she would say, "And all girls."
This soon became part of her nightly routine, to include this closing. My
curiosity got the best of me and I asked her, "why do you always add the
part about all girls?" Her response,
"Because everybody always finish their prayers by saying 'All Men'!" |

Communication Obstacles: Fear of Disappointment
I have to admit that one thing that slows down my eagerness to pray is fear.
I am afraid of being disappointed. Prayer, real prayer, honest prayer,
involves opening up your heart, baring your feelings, taking a risk,
exposing your tender side instead of the hardened armor we usually present
to the world.
The prophet Elisha’s intercession once brought a long-hoped-for son to an
older woman. It was ecstasy to her soul... 阅读全帖 |

我们向谁祷告?是圣父?圣子?还是圣灵?
新约中的基本模式是:
祷告要向天父求(Prayer should be made to the Father)
祷告要通过圣灵传达(Prayer should be made through the Spirit)
祷告要奉主耶稣的名(Prayer should be made in the name of Jesus) |

t******o 发帖数: 2792 | 49 对Cromwell我们分歧不大,我只是说老邱的书中貌似暗示Cromwell有倾向路德宗,他是不像狂热分子,翻译圣经的确在政治上有很实际的好处,但那个时代,对圣经翻译这样的态度应该能说明他和保守派如Norfolk在信仰上的区别是明显的。
至尊法案是圣公宗形成的前提是没有疑问的,但就像前面所说,Norfolk代表的天主教集团也认同国王应是英格兰教会的首脑,但反对其他的变革。再好比henry是至尊法案的支持者和直接受益者,但一直被认为是天主教徒。所以我个人认为,单凭only supreme head就说圣公宗基本形成是有所欠缺的。
圣公宗的确是新教各派中和天主教最接近的,但教义和宗教仪式也有明显的区分。关于公祷书,西方教会史上说:“国会废除了亨利的六条主张,1548年编了“公祷书”代替弥撒经书,1552年克兰麦又加上了“42条”主张,联合奠定了英国圣公会的思想。主要有以下几点A、神父称牧师,MINISTER。B、用普通桌子代替祭台。C、否认“质变形不变”圣体圣事是纪念性的,可仍承认基督神性临在。D、因信成义。E、圣经唯一。F、承认两件圣事:圣洗与圣餐。 公祷书而取消了... 阅读全帖 |
