智慧投資三大秘訣

The Three Secrets of Wise Investment

提後 4:6-8

2 Timothy 4:6-8

1. 引言
Prologue

本傑明·福蘭克林：人生中只有兩件事情是確定的—繳稅和死亡，然而基督的降世救贖，使得我們有了獲得永恆生命的機會！

Benjamin Franklin: In this world only two things are certain - tax and death. However, the incarnation and salvation of Christ gave us an opportunity to obtain eternal life.

二、 短暫生命與永恆生命的關係
The relationship between temporal life and eternal life

三、 智慧投資三大秘訣
The three secrets of wise investment

1. 打那“美好的仗“，且要打完
Fight the good fight, and complete it

2. 跑那“當跑的路”, 且要跑盡
Run the race, and finish it

3. 守那“所信的道”, 且要守住
Keep the faith, and hold fast to it

四、世人的迷茫和我們的答案
Confusion of the world and our answer

1. 世人皆曰：“人生如戰場¨，但是：為何而戰？和誰而戰？
The world is saying, “Life is like a battlefield”, but for what and against whom?

我們的答案—做個“得勝者”：為“永生¨而戰；和“舊我¨爭戰
Our answer - Be a victor: Fight for eternal life, fight against the old self

2. 世人皆曰：“人生如賽場¨，但是：往哪里跑？為何跑呢？
The world is saying, “Life is like a race”, but where are we heading to? Why are we running?

我們的答案—做個“得獎者”：有方向(向著標杆直跑)、有目的(從上面召我來的獎賞)、有內容(攻克己身，叫身服我）
Our answer - Be a winner: With direction (towards the goal), with purpose (the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus), with content (discipline my body and bring it into subjection)

3. 世人皆曰： “人活著要有理想”,但是：委身的真理？持守的力量？
The world is saying, “To live, man ought to have an ideal”, but what is the truth that we commit ourselves to? Where is the source of strength that keeps us going?

我們的答案—做個“守道者”：有可信之道(因為知道我所信的是誰)、有守道之能(也深信祂能保全我所交付祂的，直到那日)
Our answer - Be a keeper of faith: For the highly credible truth (For I know whom I have believed), with faith-keeping power (and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that Day)

五、智慧的投資所帶來的回報—永恆國度中神的賞賜
The return of wise investment - the rewards of God in eternal kingdom

1. 有極大的榮耀
Great glory

2. 有公義的審判
Righteous judgment

3. 有最深的滿足
Deepest satisfaction

六、結論
Conclusion

耶穌說：“人若賺得全世界，賠上了自己的生命，有什麼益處呢？人還能拿什麼換生命呢？”（馬太福音16：26）
Jesus said, “For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?” (Matthew 16:26)
