基督教的復興不是有多少人敬拜，而是有多少人渴慕神的話語。
人敬拜神，是因為認識祂。人認識祂，是因為讀祂的話語。
一群人聚在一起讀經禱告，這就是教會。

The Christian Sunday is not the Jewish Sabbath.
It is not even something we use to judge others,
or prove that we are more righteous.

Many people believe in Jesus on the one hand,
and do the Law on the other hand. 
They are even afraid of breaking the Law.
These people rest on Sunday, but not rest in Christ.

My friends, once we enter the new covenant,
whatever we do, it is in Christ.
Our Sabbath, our rest is in Christ, 7 days a week.
Sunday is a day sanctified and used for worshiping our Lord.

很多人說相信耶穌，但不知道什麼是相信耶穌。相信耶穌就是相信耶穌是基督、是神的兒子。但這又是什麼意思呢？意思就是相信耶穌是神。然而，只是有知識是完全沒有用的，人需要在心裡相信。人需要重生。

重生不是在你對別人說你相信耶穌的那一刻，而是在你終於發現耶穌是神的那一刻。這才是真正的相信。

當一個人讀聖經的時候，神會藉著祂的話語使人看到神在舊約做的事情，耶穌在新約也做；看到神在舊約說的話，耶穌也說；看到當門徒稱耶穌是神、並要敬拜他的時候，耶穌並不拒絕；… 當人有這些看見的時候，才是重生。這是神的揀選和工作。

人讀聖經是為了看見神，就是看見耶穌，就是看見 “神在耶穌里的榮耀在經文中顯現出來”，看見聖經如何見證耶穌是神。這才是讀經的樂趣。

‘The Bible is not about you. It is about Jesus. But it is written for you.’ So you may read and “believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name” (John 20:31b).
