“When we say Reformed, we simply mean Biblical.”

• Reformed = Go back to the Bible.
• Biblical = Allow the Bible to frame our doctrines.
• The Foundation = The authority of the Scripture alone.
• The Goal = The glory of God above all things.
• The Truth = The purity of the gospel: “how sinful man and be right with the Holy God.”

“Reformed” in essence is:

       God formed the truth. And then the truth became deformed by false teachers, traditions and ecclesiastical hierarchy (which became the authority instead of the Word of God). Reformed is to simply bring it back to where God formed it. So, man by his failure to properly teaching the Bible deformed it, and the reformers simply put it back to the form as God has originally given it.

教會不是唱歌、聽道、吃飯。教會不是同鄉會，教會也不是俱樂部。很多人做了基督徒很多年，活得和非基督徒沒有分別。你說：“其他基督徒不是都一樣嗎？” 問題就在於這裡了！

你要擔心的不是你在天上的賞賜，而是你是否得救。你以為自己已經是基督徒，因為有很多人把你當作基督徒。你從來不為自己的救恩擔心，因為有人提醒你 “一次得救、永遠得救”。但問題是，你得救了嗎？你知道自己信的是什麼嗎？信主後你的生命改變了嗎？

你稱呼他為主耶穌，他真的是你生命的主宰嗎？你每天花多少時間讀他的話語？偶爾翻一下聖經的人有很多，持續讀經禱告的人在哪裡？基督徒和非基督徒很明顯的分別，就是有一個每天讀經禱告、認罪悔改的生活。今時今日，認罪悔改的基督徒在哪裡？

When you pray, remember that God’s heart is on His people.
When you teach, assume that people do not read the Bible.
