以赛亞书 60:1-2 兴起发光，因为你的光已经来到，耶和华的荣耀发现照耀你。 看哪，黑暗遮盖大地，幽暗遮盖万民，耶和华却要显现照耀你，他的荣耀要现在你身上。(现代标点和合本）
Isaiah 60:1-2 Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. 2 For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, And deep darkness the people; But the Lord will arise over you, And His glory will be seen upon you. (NKJV)
教会不是软弱的。教会不是被动的。教会不是坐以待毙的。光从来不是为了光明而存在。光是为了黑暗而出现。教会，兴起，站起来做大丈夫。不是因为世界变好了。是因为：你的光已经来了！也许你看见黑暗遮盖世界，但不会遮盖你。今天最大的危险，不是世界太坏；是教会，我们慢慢习惯妥协。不要忘记，你是从得胜出发的。明天当你去面对世界的时候。记得，你是和基督一模一样。阿们！
The Church is not weak. The Church is not passive. The Church is not waiting to die. Light was never created for places already bright. Light appears because of darkness. Church, Arise! Stand up with courage. Not because the world has become better, but because your Light has already come. Maybe you see darkness covering the world, but it will not cover you. Today, the greatest danger is not that the world is becoming worse, It is that the church slowly becomes comfortable with compromise. Do not forget — you begin from victory. And tomorrow, when you go out into the world: Most importantly — be just like Christ.
