SEVEN THINGS THAT HAVE HELPED ME GO ON LIVING 七件幫助我活下去的事

Translation & Edition 翻譯＆編輯：Joyce Yang 


1. Pray. 

Pour out your heart to God (I Thes. 5:17).

2. I count my blessings.
It’s amazing how it changes my mindset when I focus on my blessings and not my bruises (Psalm 103:2). It transforms me from pitying myself to thinking that I am richly blessed. I go from thinking I have it worse than anyone to thinking that I have it better than anyone.

1. 禱告。
向神傾訴你的心聲（帖前5：17）。

2. 數算我的祝福。
令人驚訝的是，當我專注於我的祝福而不是我的傷痕時，它如何改變我的心態（詩篇103：2）。它把我從自艾自憐，轉變為我得到了豐盛的祝福。從認為我遇到比任何人都糟糕的事，到認為我遇到比任何人都好的事。


3. Don’t live in the past.
This always takes me to a bad place (Phil. 3:13).

4. Christianity changes everything.
It gives me a purpose, a goal, a reason to live, and something to look forward to (I Cor. 15:58). I have to remember why I’m here. This life is not about my comfort, it’s about serving the Lord. I may be able to do that better in my broken situation.

5. Spend time in the Word (Psalm 119:27).
It’s amazing how it changes my mental perspective. Use the GBN app.


3.不要活在過去。
活在過去，總是把我帶到一個糟糕的地方（腓立比書3：13 忘記背後，努力面前的）。

4. 基督教信仰改變了一切。
它給了我一個目的，一個目標，一個活著的理由，以及一些值得期待的東西（哥林多前書15：58 你們的勞苦在主裡面不是徒然的）。我必須記住我為什麼在這裡。今生不是關於我的安慰，而是關於服事主。在我破碎的情況下，我也許可以做得更好。

5. 花時間在神的話語中（詩篇119：27 求你使我明白你的訓詞，我就思想你的奇事）。
令人驚訝的是，它如何改變了我的心理觀點。（鼓勵讀者使用 GBN 應用程式來讀與聽神的話。 https://gbntv.org/ ）


6. I constantly remind myself that God can use any situation for his glory and for my good (Romans 8:28, Psalm 119:67, 71).

7. I remember that it won’t be long.
Regardless of how long I live, it is a short time compared with what is to come (James 4:14, 2 Cor. 4:17).

6. 我不斷提醒自己，神能夠使用任何情況來榮耀祂，並為著我的益處（羅馬書8：28，詩篇119：67,71）。

7.我知道此生不會太長。
無論我活多久，與即將發生的事情（永生）相比，這都是很短的時間（雅各書4：14，哥后4：17）。

Should I Forgive A Brother Who Won't Repent? (Don Blackwell)

Subject: "Should I Forgive A Brother Who Won't Repent?" Speaker: Don Blackwell Scripture: Luke 17:1-3 Website: https://www.willowcofc.net/ Willow Avenue Church of Christ Video: https://www.youtube.com/live/G0CwQfl3YMo?si=Y5PyqjXAxuOiTVX8 Then Peter came to Jesus, and he said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him.  Up to seven times? Jesus said to him, I do not say to you up to seven times, but up to 70 times seven.  (Mt 18:21-22). Brethren, I want to suggest to you this morning that questions about forgiving a brother who has sinned against you is not a new thing. They existed even when the Lord was on this earth. And they are troubling enough that one of the apostles felt the need to come and ask Jesus directly about it. How frequently should I forgive my brother? I mean, my patience runs out sometimes. I mean, sometimes enough is enough. Where do I draw the line? Peter said, is seven times enough? You know, I've got the idea that Peter...

From J.Yuan  Edited by Joyce 人的七個家 肉體／皮囊／帳篷／靈魂的家 神在萬世以前預定使我們得榮耀的（ Gen 2:7 ）。 我還在這帳棚的時候（ 2 Pe 1:13-15 ）。 暫居的世界／地球 我們一生的年日是七十歲，若是強壯可到八十歲……轉眼成空，我們便如飛而去（ Psa 90:9-10 ）。 你們的生命是什麼呢？你們原來是一片雲霧，出現少時就不見了（ Js 4:14) 。 出生的家／與父母（監護人）同住的家 本地本家（ Mt 13:57) 。 家鄉 （ Heb 11:15) 。 自己的家／獨立長大後的家 自己的家（ 1 Tim 3:5) 。 墳墓／陰間：樂園或黑暗坑 死後的暫時去處。 肉體出於塵土，也都歸於塵土（ Ecc 3:20) 。 財主去痛苦的地方，拉撒路去樂園（ Lk 16:19-31) 。 教會／神的家 神的家（ 1 Tim 3:15) 。 基督是 教會的頭（ Eph 5:23) 。 永遠的歸宿：天國或地獄 天父的家 = 天國（ Jn 14:2) 。 不滅的火裡＝地獄（ Mk 9:44) 。

Together: Forgive One Another

From:  Brent Kercheville - West Palm Beach church of Christ False Understanding of Forgiveness In our culture, forgiveness is a unilateral internal effort to get my own emotions under control. It is a therapeutic view of forgiveness. Forgiveness is about me. We see this in the way the word “forgiveness” is used. For example, we will hear people say that you need to forgive yourself. This does not make sense using the word biblically. The scriptures never say to forgive yourself. But what people mean about forgiving yourself is this unilateral internal effort to get your own emotions under control and move yourself to some sort of happy place. This is not a biblical view but you can see why there is confusion when we discuss forgiveness from a biblical basis.  Another example of this misunderstanding of forgiveness is that you will hear people say that they have forgiven God or cannot forgive God. This is also nonsensical and ultimately blasphemous since God cannot do wrong and...
