John Ch.6
68 Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life,
約6:10耶穌說:「你們叫眾人坐下。」原來那地方的草多,眾人就坐下,數目約有五千。11 耶穌拿起餅來,祝謝了,就分給那坐著的人;分魚也是這樣,都隨著他們所要的。
53耶穌說:「我實實在在的告訴你們,你們若不吃人子的肉,不喝人子的血,就沒有生命在你們裡面。54 吃我肉、喝我血的人就有永生,在末日我要叫他復活。 55我的肉真是可吃的,我的血真是可喝的。56
吃我肉、喝我血的人常在我裡面,我也常在他裡面。57永活的父怎樣差我來,我又因父活著;照樣,吃我肉的人也要因我活著。58這就是從天上降下來的糧。吃這糧的人就永遠活著,不像你們的祖宗吃過嗎哪還是死了。」
60他的門徒中有好些人聽見了,就說:「這話甚難,誰能聽呢?」
66從此,他門徒中多有退去的,不再和他同行。
67耶穌就對那十二個門徒說:「你們也要去嗎?」
68西門彼得回答說:「主啊,你有永生之道,我們還歸從誰呢?
約翰福音第六章從頭到尾,在「量」上是從興旺到衰微,但是在「質」上卻是長進的記錄。
The sixth chapter of Johns Gospel is from prosperity to decline in quantity, but it is a record of growth in quality.
當教會在質方面漸漸穩固的時候,只要是照聖經的原則建立起來的,即使在現象上並不興旺,也不必懼伯。
When the church gradually stabilizes in quality, as long as it is established according to the truth of the Bible, even if the phenomenon is not prosperous, there is no need to fear.
我們今天沒有幾個人比當時到中國去的馬禮遜更偉大,可是,他傳道傳了七年,卻只有一個人信耶穌。從「量」上面看是很少,但是,是奠基在真理的基礎上,因為他傳的是永生之道。感謝主!
Not many of us today are greater than Robert Morrison who went to China at that time, but he has been preaching for seven years, and only one person believes in Jesus. From the perspective of "quantity", it is very small, but it is based on the truth, because he preached the words of eternal life. Thank God!
