创世记 2:9 耶和华神使各样的树从地⾥⻓出来，可 以悦⼈的眼⽬，其上的果⼦好作⻝物。 园⼦当中⼜有⽣命树和分别善恶树。(现代标点和合本)
Genesis 2:9 And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. (NKJV)

真相是——如今你是在基督耶稣⾥。 所以今天当神看你时，祂不是看你的作为，⽽是看⻅祂的爱⼦主耶稣。因此，我们今天要问的不是“我是否⾜够好”，⽽是“主耶稣是否⾜够好”。如果主耶稣是最好的，那么今天你就配得所有祝福与医治。 ⽣命树的意义是什么？分别善恶树的意义⼜是什么呢？分别善恶树不仅仅是“认识恶”的树，⽽是“分别善与恶”之树。这棵树指的是我们⽣命中，我们对善与恶；对与错的判断。在⽇常⽣活中，我们经常⾯临选择：这是对的吗？那是错的吗？哪⼀个是正确的决 定？为什么这是错的？有时，即使在聆听神的话语时，我们也可能感到困惑——哪⼀种解释才是正确的？谁是对的，谁⼜是错的？这种困惑往往源于缺乏属灵的启⽰。然⽽今天，神不要我们⼀直沉溺于对与错的层⾯上。祂渴望我们来到⽣命树前，⽣命树的意义不关乎对与错，⽽是关乎拥有⽣命。

The truth is – you are now in Christ Jesus, so when God looks at you today, He does not see you but He sees Jesus. Hence, the question we should ask today is not whether we are good enough but if Jesus is good enough. If Jesus is good enough, then today you are worthy to be blessed, and you are worthy to be healed. What is the meaning of the tree of life and what is the meaning of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil? The latter one is not just a tree of the knowledge of evil only but of the knowledge of both good and evil. This tree points to what is good and evil in our lives; in other words - what is right and what is wrong. We are always faced with right or wrong choices in life. Is this right? Is that wrong? Which is the right thing to do? Why is it wrong? Sometimes we even get confused listening to God’s words – Which is the right meaning? Who is right and who is wrong? This happens when we fail to receive the revelation from the spirit. Today, God does not want you to dwell only in what is right and what is wrong. God wants us to go to the Tree of Life, where it is not about right or wrong but it is about having life.

撒⺟⽿记上 16:7 ...耶和华不像⼈看⼈，⼈是看外貌， 耶和华是看内⼼。(现代标点和合本)
1Samuel 16:7 …For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart. (NKJV)

今天⽗神也是在看你的内⼼。当你 从⼼⾥信的正确，你就晓得⽗神并没有以 怒⽓待你，祂不是按着你的⾏为来断定你 是否公义，⽽是因着⼗架的完⼯，祂看你 是全然⽆瑕疵，带着公义的⾝份坦然⽆惧 来到祂⾯前。在祂眼中，你是全然公义。如果你做错了该怎么办？如果你仍然时不时地陷⼊罪中⼜当如何？如果你仍然⽆法 摆脱坏习惯时该怎么办？你还配得为⽗神所爱吗？是的！你仍然配得被⽗神所爱。 为什么？因为不是靠着我们的⾏为称义， ⽽是我们有因信⽽来的奇迹。只要我们相 信主耶稣，神就把赐给亚伯拉罕的义归于 我们。当你依靠⾃⼰的意志⼒想要做出改变时，你永远不会成功，但当你信的正 确，就看⻅由内⽽外的转变。阿们！

Today Abba Father is also looking at your heart. When you believe right in your heart, you will know that Abba Father is not angry at you, and that He does not need you to earn His approval of you, but that because of Jesus’ finished work at the cross, He sees you as perfect and completely worthy to come before Him. You are righteous in His sight. What if you have done wrong? What if you still fall into sin now and then? What if you still cannot get rid of that addiction? Are you still worthy of God’s love? Yes, yes, yes! You are still completely worthy of God’s love. Why? Because it does not come by our own efforts but we have a miracle that comes by faith. Just by our believing in Jesus, God imputes to us the righteousness which was also given to Abraham. When you depend on your own willpower to change, you can never succeed, but when you believe right, there will be an inside-out
transformation. Amen!

耶利⽶书 1:5 我使你在⺟腹中成形以先，就认识你；你还未出⺟胎，我已把你分别为圣， ⽴你作列国的先知。(新译本)
Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations. (NKJV)

主耶稣在你还未成形于⺟腹时就已经认识 你了。祂晓得你所有的优缺点与特质，但祂依然爱你。圣经说，当你还是罪⼈时， 祂就选择为你⽽死。那么，为什么你还会 觉得，当你犯错时，主耶稣就不爱你了 呢？即便你没有达到标准，你依然是祂所爱的。弟兄姊妹，让我们满⼼相信，主耶稣在 我们还未在⺟腹中成形以先，就已经认识我们。在我们还未出⺟胎时，祂已把我们分别为圣。分别为圣意味着从世界中被拣选出来，祂将你置于祂翅膀的荫下，使你永远受到保护和蒙恩宠。倘若你领会这启⽰，祂不仅使你⾜享⻓寿，也使你的⾝⼦健壮。你可以⼀直健康强壮地活着，直到被提的那⼀天。神也⽴你作多国的先知，祂呼召你在此做⼤的事情。是祂呼召了 你；若是祂拣选了你，祂必赋予你能⼒。 阿们！ 教会，在⽣命中我们要有活泼的盼望。圣经告诉我们，当约柜在俄别以东的家中的三个⽉里，他和他的全家是备受祝福的。有些⼈可能⽴刻会说“是的，阿们”，并将这祝福领受为⾃⼰的，但也有⼈会觉得这福分不可能临到⾃⼰⾝上。前者是相信的信徒，⽽后者则是不信的信徒。让我们都成为相信的信徒，相信神所应许的⼀切祝福都必临到我们⾝上。

The Lord Jesus already knew you even before you were formed in the womb. He knows all your good points and idiosyncrasies but He still loves you. The bible tells us that while you were still a sinner, He chose to die for you. So why do you still think that Jesus does not love you when you did something wrong? You are still His beloved even when you did not meet the mark. Brothers and sisters, let us have the confidence that Jesus knew us even before we were formed. And before we were born, Jesus sanctified us. To sanctify is to be set apart from the world. He put you under His wings so that you are forever protected and favored, and if you can possess this, He also made you forever healthy. You can live healthy and strong until the day you are raptured. God ordained you to be a prophet to the nations. God called you to be here to do great things. He called you and if God calls you, He will empower you. Amen! Church, we need to live with expectations in life. The bible tells us that when the ark of the covenant was in Obed-Edom’s house, he and his household were blessed during those three months. Some of you may immediately say Yes and Amen and claim this blessing for yourselves, but there are also some who will think it is impossible for such blessings to come upon them. The former is a believing believer while the latter is an unbelieving believer. Let us be believing believers and expect all the blessings to come upon us just as God has promised.

希伯来书 10:9 后⼜说：我来了为要照你的旨意⾏，可⻅祂是除去在先的，为要⽴定在后的。(现代标点和合本)
Hebrews 10:9 then He said, “Behold, I have come to do Your will, O God.” He takes away the first that He may establish the second. (NKJV)

主耶稣说，祂来了为要照⽗神的旨意⾏。 请留意，这是第⼀个“旨意”——⽗神的旨意。在圣经中，即在先和在后的。主耶稣除去在先的约，以便⽴定在后的约。在先的说，你必须按照律法上所写的去做，才能得着祝福。然⽽，在后的约的说，它不是关乎你做了什么，⽽是关乎主耶稣在⼗字架上所成就的。当神看你时，祂看到的不是你，⽽是主耶稣的宝⾎。这就是旧约中，圣殿约柜发⽣的事情。当神看着两个基路伯的时候，祂只看到洒在施恩座上的⾎，⽽没有看到施恩座下⼈所犯的罪。因 此，当神看你时，祂不看你的软弱，因为主耶稣的⾎已经洗净了你⼀切的罪孽，所以你现在祂眼中是全然美丽，毫⽆瑕疵的。

Jesus told the Father that He had come to do God’s will. Take note that this is the first “W” – the will of the Father. In the bible, there is a First Covenant and a Second Covenant. Jesus took away the first so that He may establish the second. The First Covenant says that you must do according to what is written in the law before you can receive any blessing. However, in the Second Covenant, it is not about what you have done but what Jesus had done on the cross. When God looks at you, He does not see you but He sees the blood of Jesus. This was what happened at the Ark of the Covenant in the temple in the Old Testament. When God looked through the two cherubins, He only saw the blood sprinkled on the mercy seat and not the sins of the people under the mercy seat. Hence, when God looks at you, He does not see your weaknesses because He sees the blood of Jesus cleansing you of all your sins so that you are now perfect in His sight.

约翰福⾳ 14:6 耶稣说：我就是道路、真理、⽣命... (现代标点和合本)
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life… (NKJV)

世界可以给你看到各样的⽅法，但耶稣说 祂就是道路、真理、⽣命。在教会，领袖 们不会指⽰你哪个⽅法是最完全的，因为 惟有⼀条路是完全的，那就是回到主耶稣 这⾥。如何才能改善你岌岌可危的婚姻关 系？回到主耶稣这⾥。要如何才能加强我 的财务状况？我有信⽤卡债务，我⽋银⾏ ⼀⼤笔债务，我还⽋债与⼈；总之，我的 债务⾮常庞⼤。⽽哪⼀条路对我来说是最 好的的呢？耶稣说：“我就是道路、真 理、⽣命。”阿们！ 教会，让我们操练不断的祷告，让⽗神在 我们⽣命的每个领域引导我们⾛正确的 路，包括在我们的婚姻中、育⼉⽇常、我们的⽣意和⼯作上。我们需要从祂⽽来的启⽰，来带领我们的⼯作和⽇常⽣活， 来⾃祂的⼀个想法就能提供我们所需要的突破。阿们！

The world can show you many ways but Jesus says that He is the way, the truth, and the life. In this temple of God, the leaders are not here to tell you which way is perfect because there is only one perfect way, and that is coming back to Jesus. How can you make your marriage relationship better? Come back to Jesus. How can I strengthen my finances? I have a big credit card debt. I owe the bank a lot of money. I owe people money. My debt is huge. Which way is the best for me? Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth and the life.” Amen! Church, let us learn to pray that God will lead us down the right path in every area of our lives including our marriage, our parenting, our business, and our careers. We need to seek Him to give us the revelation to help us in our business, and in our daily lives. One idea from Him can give us the breakthrough we need. Amen!

歌罗西书 3:3 因为你们已经死了，你们的⽣命与基督 ⼀同藏在神⾥⾯。(现代标点和合本)
Colossians 3:3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. (NKJV)

罗⻢书 6:6 说你的旧⼈已经死了，是已经与基督同钉⼗字架。你的“旧⼈”是什么？ 它是你被诅咒的旧我，是在神眼中充满罪恶的旧我，注定要拆毁的旧我。你的旧⼈已经与基督同钉⼗字架。⼀旦你接受基督 为你的救主，你就是⼀个新造的⼈。旧事已过，都变成新的了(哥林多后书 5:17)。我们在基督⾥都的新造的⼈，圣经说你的⽣命是与基督⼀同藏在神⾥⾯。这意表什 么呢？这意味着你所做的每⼀件事，⽆论是⼯作、⽣意、养育⼦⼥等事上，都不再 是关于你或你的努⼒。你的⽣命是与基督 ⼀同藏在神⾥⾯。当你取得成功时，不是靠你⾃⼰；当你的孩⼦表现优异时，也不是因着你们⾃⼰的功劳。当你的事业顺利时，不是为了向世⼈显⽰你是多么成功的⽣意⼈，或你是多 么聪明，⽽是数算神对你的美好与慈爱。祂⼀直是你慈爱的⽗。阿们！

Romans 6:6 says that your old man has been crucified with Christ. What is your “old man”? It is your old self which is cursed, your old self which is full of sin in God’s sight, your old self which is doomed for destruction. Your old man has been crucified with Christ. Once you received Christ as your Saviour, you are a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come (2 Corinthians 5:17). We are all new creations in Christ, and the bible says that now your life is hidden with Christ in God. What does it mean for your life to be hidden with Christ in God? It means that in everything that you do, whether it is in your work, business, parenting etc, it is no longer about you or your own efforts. Your life is hidden in Christ. When you succeed, it is not you who did it. When your child excels, it is not because you are a good parent. Your life is hidden in Christ. It is the Lord who has been such a good Father to you. When your business does well, it is not to tell the world what a good businessman you are or how smart you are, but it is to tell the world how good God has been to you. Amen!

哥林多后书 3:6 祂叫我们能承当这新约的执事，不是凭着字句，乃是凭着精意，因为那字句是叫⼈死，精意是叫⼈活。(精意或作圣灵) (现代标点和合本)
2Corinthians 3:6 who also made us sufficient as ministers of the new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life. (NKJV)

“…新约的执事”——这节经⽂证明了有 旧约和新约。这新约不是凭着字句 (即写在⽯版上的律法)，乃是凭着精意 (圣灵)；因为字句 (律法) 是叫⼈死，精意 (圣灵) 是叫⼈活。我们不靠 ⾃⼰的努⼒，⽽是靠圣灵。教会传给你 们的道是藉着叫⼈活的圣灵；⾁体是⽆益处的。因此，我们不依靠⽆益的⾁体，⽽是依靠神的灵，它赐予我们恩 惠、智慧和恩膏，这都是从上头⽽来。 ⾝为⽗⺟，我们规划孩⼦的未来，但在⼀切事上，我们需要依靠圣灵来引导我 们。弟兄姐妹，你在⽣活中依靠谁或什么呢？主耶稣在约翰福⾳ 6:63 中说，祂对你们所说的话就是灵，就是⽣命。因此，在我们的⽇常⽣活中，如果我们依靠圣经中基督的话，就意味着依靠圣灵。阿们！

“…ministers of the new covenant” - here in this verse is the proof that there is an old covenant and a new covenant. This new covenant is not of the letter (which means the law written on stone) but of the Spirit; for the law kills but the Spirit gives life. We do not depend on our own efforts but we depend on the Spirit. The word preached to you by the church is through the Spirit and the Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. Therefore, we do not want to depend on the flesh which counts for nothing, but we want to depend on the Spirit of God which gives favor, wisdom and anointing which comes from above. As parents, we plan for our children’s future but in our planning for their success, we need to depend on the Spirit to lead and guide us. Brothers and sisters, who or what are you depending on in life? Jesus said in John 6:63 that the words which He had spoken to you are full of spirit and they are life. Therefore, in our daily walk, if we depend on the word of Christ in the bible, it translates to a dependence on the Spirit. Amen!

罗⻢书 8:26 况且，圣灵也照样扶助我们的软弱。事 实上，我们不知道该祷告什么，如何祷告，但圣灵却亲⾃⽤说不出的叹息，为我们代求。(中⽂标准译本)
Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. (NKJV)

有时候，当我们⾯临难以承受的困境时， 我们不知道该祷告什么，⼜如何祷告。这让我们觉得我们祷告不够充分，并且怀疑神是否会回应祷告。当我们不知道如何祷告时，圣灵却亲⾃为我们代求。这意味着圣灵亲⾃⽤说不出的叹息为我们祷告；就是说⽅⾔。当你说⽅⾔时，参透万事的圣灵就为你祷告。即便是将来的事，圣灵也亲⾃为你代求。盗贼来是要偷窃杀害你的⽣命，但当你⽤⽅⾔祷告时，圣灵把这⼀切阻拦了，这样你就不会受到伤害。圣灵说你是神的⼉⼥，并引⽤诗篇 91 篇——祸 患必不临到你，圣灵会为你排除⼀切的障碍。阿们！

Sometimes when the challenges we face seem overwhelming, we do not know how to even begin praying about them. It makes us feel that our prayers will be inadequate and we doubt that God would answer them. We may not know how to pray but the Spirit Himself can make intercession for us. That means the Spirit will pray on our behalf, with groanings which cannot be uttered. This is speaking in tongues. When you speak in tongues, the Holy Spirit who knows all things, prays for you. The Holy Spirit can pray against the bad things that are going to happen because He knows. Perhaps the devil is trying to harm you, but when you pray in tongues, the Holy Spirit will take it away so you will not be harmed. The Holy Spirit can tell God that you are his child and quote Psalm 91 – no harm shall befall you, and that harm will be swept away before it comes to you. Amen!

约翰福⾳ 8:31-32 耶稣对信他的犹太人说：“你们若常常遵守我的道，就真是我的门徒， 你们必晓得真理，真理必叫你们得以自由。(现代标点和合本)
John 8:31-32 (NKJV) 31Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed.  And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

如果你住在祂的话语⾥，主耶稣说你必晓 得真理，⽽真理必叫你得以⾃由。当惧怕来到，真理告诉你，你⼀直⽣活在谎⾔中，它就叫你⾃由了。阿们！我的朋友，你的祖⽗患了⼼脏病并不意味着你也遗传有⼼脏病。许多⼈喜欢将⾃然灾害归咎于是神的作为。例如，保险公司的规条会将地震视为神的⾏为，但地震并不是神所引发的。盗贼来是要偷窃、杀害和毁坏，但 主耶稣说祂来是要叫⼈得⽣命，并且得丰盛的⽣命。当主耶稣再次来统领世界时， 将不会有地震、洪⽔和惧怕了。伊甸园⾥有发⽣过地震吗？没有。因此，让我们不 要因恶者的作为⽽归咎于神。当你晓得真理，真理必叫你得以⾃由。有些⼈相信神是藉着疾病是来教导或训练 他们。例如，他们说神使他们得癌症是为了教导他们在⽣活中要学习忍耐。教会， 那是谎⾔。⼀位⽗亲不可能希望⾃⼰的孩⼦是⽣病的。主耶稣说，如果你看到祂， 你就看到了⽗。圣经中从未记载主耶稣使任何⼈⽣病的事迹。事实上，圣经说祂医治了所有来到祂⾯前的病患。没有⼈会触摸⿇⻛病⼈，但主耶稣触摸了那⼈，他⽴刻就得痊愈了。在婚礼上酒⽤尽了，主耶稣把⽔变成了酒，使新⼈不⾄于蒙羞。因此，不要看错了。主耶稣祂⾏善周流四⽅，祂是良善的神；祂是开路者，祂是守约的神，祂是你⿊暗中的光芒。阿们！

If you hear His word and you receive it and abide by His word, Jesus said that you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free. In times of fear, when the truth comes and tells you that you have been living in a lie, it will set you free. Amen! My friend, Just because your grandfather had heart disease does not mean that you will get it too. Many people like to credit natural disasters to God. For example, insurance policies list the earthquake as an act of God, but God did not cause the earthquakes. The devil comes to steal, kill, and destroy but Jesus said that He came to give life, and life more abundantly. Earthquakes are not acts of God. When Jesus comes back to rule the world, there will be no earthquake nor flood and no fear. Was there ever any earthquake in the garden of Eden? No. Therefore, let us not blame God for what the devil does. When you receive the truth, it will set you free. Some people believe that God gives them sicknesses to teach or train them. For example, they say that God gives them cancer to teach them perseverance in life. That is a lie. It is impossible for a father to wish sickness upon his own child. Jesus said that if you see Him, you see the Father. Not once in the bible did Jesus ever give anyone a sickness. In fact, the bible says that He healed all who came to Him. No one would ever touch the leper but Jesus touched him and he was healed instantly. When a wedding ceremony ran out of wine, Jesus turned the water into wine so that the newly-weds would not be shamed. Therefore, get it right. Jesus went around doing good. He is a good God. He is the Way-maker, He is a promise-keeper, He is the light in your darkness. Amen!
