Take Up His Cross Daily and Follow Me Let's Pray: We need Your light, and Your revelation. We desire to follow You to perform the Father's plan, God's economy, and to take care of the growth in life, to have the real spirituality. Hymn:988 Today's Verses and Footnotes: Luke 9:1-36 Key Verse: Luke 9:23 And He said to them all, If anyone wants to come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow Me. Filling the Blanks (Please double-click the blanks): The cross is not merely a suffering; it is also a (killing). It kills and terminates the criminal. Christ first (bore) the cross and then was (crucified). We, His believers, first were crucified with Him and now bear the cross. To us, to bear the cross is to remain under the (killing) of the death of Christ for the terminating of our (self), our natural life, and our old man. (See Matt. 16:24 note 3) Tomorrow: The Merciful and Loving Savior 　 请我们先祷告 主，我们需要你的光，也需要你的启示。我们渴望跟从你，实行父的计划，神的经纶，并顾到生命中的长大，而有真实的属灵！ 　 诗歌:677♫ 　 今日经节及注解 路九1～36 重点经节： 路9:23 耶稣又对众人说，若有人要跟从我，就当否认己，天天背起他的十字架，并跟从我。 　 填空（请用鼠标左键选择空白处） 十字架不仅是受苦，也是（杀死）。十字架杀死并了结罪犯。基督是先（背）十字架，然后（钉）十字架；今天我们这些信祂的人，是先与祂同钉十字架，然后背十字架。对我们来说，背十字架乃是留在基督之死的（杀死）里，以了结我们的（己）、天然生命和旧人。（ 参太十六24注3） 明天:怜悯慈爱的救主
