「以我主基督為至寶」的生活應用

Putting 「The Surpassing Greatness of Jesus Christ My Lord」To Work

 

一.      「以我主基督為至寶」的四個分題信息:

          The Four Topics In「The Surpassing Greatness of Jesus Christ My Lord」

 

1.      讓基督顯大的心思  [腓1:18, 20]

      Let the exaltation of Christ be our mindset   [Philippians 1:18, 20]

      [腓1:18, 20]這有何妨呢?或是假意,或是真心,無論怎樣,基督究竟被傳

       開了。為此,我就歡喜,並且還要歡喜;…無論是生是死,總叫基督在我

       身上照常顯大。

   [Philippians 1:18,20]  [18]But what does it matter? The important thing is that in

       every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of

       this I rejoice. Yes, and I will continue to rejoice, [20]…so that as always Christ will

       be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.

 

2.      像基督謙卑的性情  [腓2:6-8]

       Let the humility of Christ be our disposition  [Philippians 2:6-8]

              [腓2:6-8] [6]他本有神的形像,不以自己與神同等為強奪的;[7]反倒虛

               己,取了奴僕的形像,成為人的樣式;[8]既有人的樣子,就自己卑微,存

               心順服,以至於死,且死在十字架上。

[Philippians 2:6-8]  [6]Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality

with God something to be grasped, [7]but made himself nothing, taking the very

nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. [8]And being found in

appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death – even

death on a cross.

 

3.      以基督標竿的追求  [腓3:13-14]

      Pressing on towards the goal in Christ Jesus  [Philippians 3:13-14]

      [腓3:13-14] [13]弟兄們,我不是以為自己已經得著了;我只有一件事,就

       是忘記背後,努力面前的,[14]向著標竿直跑,要得神在基督耶穌裡從上

       面召我來得的獎賞。

     [Philippians 3:13-14]  [13]Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold

      of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is

      ahead, [14]I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me

      heavenward in Christ Jesus.

 

4.      靠基督喜樂的滿足  [腓4:11-13]

      Let our joy and contentment be in Christ  [Philippians 4:11-13]

      [腓4:11-13] [11]…我無論在什麼景況都可以知足,這是我已經學會了。

       [12]我知道怎樣處卑賤,也知道怎樣處豐富;或飽足,或飢餓;或有餘,

       或缺乏,隨事隨在,我都得了秘訣。[13]我靠著那加給我力量的,凡事都

   能做。

   [Philippians 4:11-13]  [11]…for I have learned to be content whatever the

      circumstances. [12]I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have

      plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether

      well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. [13]I can do everything

      through him who gives me strength.

           opportunity to receive the best blessings.
