Aug 27【每日活水】在家庭和职场中成为榜样

 

帖撒罗尼迦后书3:6~18

警戒懒惰的人
6 弟兄们,我们奉主 YS JI DU 的名吩咐你们,凡有弟兄不按规矩而行,不遵守从我们所受的教训,就当远离他。

7 你们自己原知道应当怎样效法我们。因为我们在你们中间,未尝不按规矩而行,

8 也未尝白吃人的饭,倒是辛苦劳碌,昼夜做工,免得叫你们一人受累。

9 这并不是因我们没有权柄,乃是要给你们作榜样,叫你们效法我们。

10 我们在你们那里的时候,曾吩咐你们说,若有人不肯做工,就不可吃饭。

11 因我们听说,在你们中间有人不按规矩而行,什么工都不做,反倒专管闲事。

12 我们靠主 YS JI DU 吩咐、劝戒这样的人,要安静做工,吃自己的饭。

13 弟兄们,你们行善不可丧志。

14 若有人不听从我们这信上的话,要记下他,不和他交往,叫他自觉羞愧。

15 但不要以他为仇人,要劝他如弟兄。

祝福

16 愿赐平安的主随时随事亲自给你们平安!愿主常与你们众人同在!

17 我-保罗亲笔问你们安。凡我的信都以此为记,我的笔迹就是这样。

18 愿我们主 YS JI DU 的恩常与你们众人同在!

Warning Against Idleness

6 In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers and sisters, to keep away from every believer who is idle and disruptive and does not live according to the teaching you received from us.

7 For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example. We were not idle when we were with you,

8 nor did we eat anyone’s food without paying for it. On the contrary, we worked night and day, laboring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you.

9 We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help, but in order to offer ourselves as a model for you to imitate.

10 For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: “The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat.”

11 We hear that some among you are idle and disruptive. They are not busy; they are busybodies.

12 Such people we command and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to settle down and earn the food they eat.

13 And as for you, brothers and sisters, never tire of doing what is good.

14 Take special note of anyone who does not obey our instruction in this letter. Do not associate with them, in order that they may feel ashamed.

15 Yet do not regard them as an enemy, but warn them as you would a fellow believer.

Final Greetings

16 Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.

17 I, Paul, write this greeting in my own hand, which is the distinguishing mark in all my letters. This is how I write.

18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

 

内容观察

1.保罗说自己是如何服事的?(7~9节)

2.保罗吩咐并劝戒 JH 中懒散的人要怎么做?(12节)

 

思考与默想

 

3.保罗为什么在担当fu yin事工的同时,又亲自做工来维持生计?
 

个人感受

4.信/徒应当在各自蒙召之地作他人的榜样,对此我有什么感想?
 

决心与应用

5.我何时曾行善却又丧志?

6.为了在家庭及职场上担起使/命、成为榜样,我决定要怎么做?

权柄(9节):作为传道人,保罗有权柄要求 JH 供应生活费。
专管闲事(11节):这些人认为 JI DU 很快就要再来,于是就放弃谋生,专管无意义的闲事。
但不要把他当仇人,要劝他如劝弟兄(15节):不能因为弟兄走上歧路就敌视他,反而要用爱和肢体情谊将他挽救回来。

灵/修指南

在当时的帖撒罗尼迦 JH ,有人狂热地期盼主的再来,并以此为借口而怠惰懒散,不但自己不做工,还给其他肢体带来损害。他们把自己当做的事丢在一边,不务正业,到处游荡,专管他人的闲事。对此,保罗说要远离这样的人,又要信/徒效法自己,因为他从未懒散过,也从未白吃人的饭,在传fu yin的同时,他也亲自劳碌做工,解决自己的生计问题(6~9节)。之后,保罗吩和劝戒这样懒散的人要安分做工,自食其力(11~12节)。接着,保罗鼓励信/徒行善不可丧志,又说要用爱和肢体情谊,怜悯并挽回不听从的弟兄(13~15节)。以末世为借口,肆意挥霍浪费,这绝不是 SHEN 对我们的心意。我们既是有着永生盼望的信/徒,就应当忠于自己的呼召和使/命。主的再来愈是迫近,我们愈是要在家庭和职场中成为榜样,在主所交付的事上忠心,作讨 TA 喜悦的MEN TU。
 

内室dao告

愿我在家庭和职场中忠于 SHEN 所托付的使/命,并能成为他人信心的榜样。
