今天和弟兄姊妹各位朋友分享兩節經文，約翰福音8：28/29。這兩節經文是耶穌說他自己如何做的，同時也是對每一位基督徒的要求，因為我們立志做主的門徒，一生跟隨他，效法他，直到他再來，滿有他的樣式。
Good morning, brothers and sisters and friends, today I want to share two verses of Bible and some thoughts with you. In John 8:28/29, Jesus tells us how He does as the Son of the Father. This sets up a standard for us, Christians, for we have already committed to be His disciples, following Him, learning from Him, and eventually becoming Christlike till he returns.
8:28所以耶穌說：你們舉起人子以後，必知道我是基督，並且知道我沒有一件事是憑着自己作的。我說這些話乃是照着父所教訓我的。
8:29那差我來的是與我同在；他沒有撇下我獨自在這裡，因為我常做他所喜悅的事。
28 So Jesus said, “When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and I do nothing on My own initiative, but I speak these things as the Father taught Me.
29 And He who sent Me is with Me; He has not left Me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to Him.”
因為耶穌所做，所以人們必知道他是基督。他所做的就是：沒有一件是憑着自己，都是按父的教導，都是父所喜悅的。
According to His work, He has been recognized as Christ. What he has done as mentioned in the verses include: do nothing on His own initiative, but obey the teaching of the Father, all of them please Him.
反思自己，離耶穌的榜樣到底有多遠？對照基督徒這個名字，讓我們反思，對照，悔改。從現在起，如同耶穌一樣，所做所為“沒有一件是憑着自己，都是按父的教導，都是父所喜悅的”。
Do some self-examinations: How far we have a distance from Jesus in the thoughts and deeds, comparing with our named as a Christian? We have to repent from our unlikeness of Christ. Let's change from today on and walk in the path Jesus walked and do things as Jesus did, not according to our own initiatives, but according to the teaching of the Father and in the purpose of pleasing Him.
