「馬槽中的君王」
The King in the Manger
經文：路 2:8-14, 賽 9:6, 約
1:11-13
Scripture:
Luke 2:8-14, Isaiah 9:6, John 1:11-13
8 在伯利恆之野地裏有牧羊的人，夜間按著更次看守羊群。
9
有主的使者站在他們旁邊，主的榮光四面照著他們；牧羊的人就甚懼怕。
10
那天使對他們說：「不要懼怕！我報給你們大喜的信息，是關乎萬民的；
11
因今天在大衛的城裏，為你們生了救主，就是主基督。
12
你們要看見一個嬰孩，包著布，臥在馬槽裏，那就是記號了。」
13
忽然，有一大隊天兵同那天使讚美 神說：
14
在至高之處榮耀歸與 神！在地上平安歸與他所喜悅的人（有古卷：喜悅歸與人）
Now there
were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over
their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and
the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the
angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of
great joy which will be to all people.
For there is born to you this day in the city of
（一）一個關乎萬民的大喜信息
( I ) Good tidings of great joy to all people
（a）是從 神而來的信息—
是從天上至高之處來的福音
( a ) It is a tiding that
came from God – the gospel that came from heaven
（b）是關乎萬民的信息—是一件影響全人類的重大歷史
( b ) It is a tiding that is for all people – a
great historical event that impacted the human race
（c）是大喜的信息—是帶給人們最大祝福的奇異恩典
( c ) It is a tiding of great joy – an amazing grace
that brought about the greatest blessing for all people
—“在至高之處榮耀歸與 神！在地上平安歸與他所喜悅的人（有古卷：喜悅歸與人）！”（路
2:14）
“ Glory to God in the highest, And on earth
peace, goodwill toward men!” ( Luke 2:14)
（二）一個極特別的記號 —「馬槽中的君王」
(II) An extraordinary sign – “A King in the
Manger”
—人類的「救主」，就是「主基督」竟然誕生在卑賤的馬槽中
-- The
Savior for all mankind, who is Christ the Lord, yet born in a lowly manger
—“因有一嬰孩為我們而生；有一子賜給我們。政權必擔在他的肩頭上；他名稱為「奇妙、策士、全能的 神、永在的父、和平的君」。”（賽
9:6）
---
“For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son
is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will
be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
(Isaiah 9:6)
（三）一個人生中最重要的抉擇
(III) The most important decision for this life
—接受祂為我們個人的救主，並認
祂為主
---
Accept Him to be our Savior, and acknowledge Him as Lord.
v
“他到自己的地方來，自己的人倒不接待他。凡接待他的，就是信他名的人，他就賜他們權柄作 神的兒女。這等人不是從血氣生的，不是從情慾生的，也不是從人意生的，乃是從 神生的。”（約 1:11-13）
v
He came to His own, and His own did not receive
Him. But as many as received Him, to
them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His
name: who were born, not of blood, nor
of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. ( John 1:11-13)
