Ò凡勞苦擔重擔的人、可以到我這裡來、我就使你們得安息。我心裡柔和謙卑、你們當負
我的軛、學我的樣式、這樣、你們心裡就必得享安息。因為我的軛是容易的、我的擔子
是輕省的。Ó(太11:28-30)
一、柔和謙卑的主
I. The Lord who is gentle and lowly in
heart
1.祂呼召小孩子到祂這裡
1. He calls the
children to Him
2.他尋找拯救失喪的人: 撒該
2. He seeks and saves
the lost: Zacchaeus
3.祂扶持鼓勵被定罪的人: 犯罪被抓拿的婦人
3. He supports and
encourages the condemned: A woman caught in sin
4.祂注意、顧念被輕看的人: 醫治路旁討飯的瞎子
4. He notices and cares
for the despised: Healing the blind beggar by the roadside
原因:祂心裡柔和謙卑,而且滿有能力。(祂Ò愛而且能助Ó)
Reason: He is gentle
and lowly in heart, and full of power. (He Òloves and is able to helpÓ)
二、負祂的軛、學祂的樣式
II. Take His yoke, learn from Him
1.祂的軛:
是輕省的、是容易的,因為祂給恩典和扶持
1. His yoke: ItÕs easy
and light for He gives grace and support
Ò我也為此勞苦、照著他在我裡面運用的大能、盡心竭力。Ó(西1:29)
ÒTo
this end I also labor, striving according to His working which works in me
mightily.Ó (Colossians 1:29)
15:10b)
ÒI labored more abundantly than they all,
yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.Ó (1 Corinthians 15:10b)
2.祂的樣式: 是柔和謙卑,祂能接納普通人所不能接納的人(小孩、罪人、窮人,長
大麻瘋的人等)
2.
His form: Gentle and lowly in heart.
He can accept those that commoners cannot accept (children, sinners, the
poor, lepers, etc.)
3.我們一生的功課: 負祂的軛、學祂的樣式--使心裡得享安息
3.
Our lifelong lesson: Take His yoke, learn
from Him -- find rest for our souls
負祂的軛:長久承擔祂勞苦耕耘(在教會裡、在世人中間)的工作。
Take
His yoke: Always carry on the work He has cultivated (at church and in the
world).
學祂的樣式:活出柔和謙卑,與弟兄姐妹和諧的配搭服事,得著罪人歸向神。
Learn from Him: Live out the gentleness and lowliness
of the heart. Co-work harmoniously with brothers and sisters. Lead
sinners to God.
三、得安息的秘訣:
到我這裡來—有力作工並得安息
III. The secret of finding rest: Come
to Me - Gain strength to work and find rest
1. 甚麼樣的人當來? Ò凡勞苦擔重擔的人Ó
1. What kind of
people should come? ÒAll you who labor and are heavy ladenÓ
2. 人很難學的功課(更要認真學): 等候仰望祂 賽30:15-17
2. Hard lesson to
learn (needs even more effort): wait and look upon Him Isaiah 30:15-17
3. 但主仍然等候要施恩 賽30:18-21
3. But the Lord
still waits to be gracious Isaiah 30:18-21
4. 等候的結果: 賽40:29-31—能負主的軛,學主樣式,並得享安息。
4. The result of
waiting: Isaiah 40:29-31 - Able to take the LordÕs yoke, learn from the
Lord, and find rest.
