今天和弟兄姊妹各位朋友分享两节经文，约翰福音8：28/29。这两节经文是耶稣说他自己如何做的，同时也是对每一位基督徒的要求，因为我们立志做主的门徒，一生跟随他，效法他，直到他再来，满有他的样式。
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所以耶稣说：你们举起人子以后，必知道我是基督，并且知道我没有一件事是凭着自己作的。我说这些话乃是照着父所教训我的。
8:29那差我来的是与我同在；他没有撇下我独自在这里，因为我常做他所喜悦的事。
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.”
因为耶稣所做，所以人们必知道他是基督。他所做的就是：没有一件是凭着自己，都是按父的教导，都是父所喜悦的。
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，离耶稣的榜样到底有多远？对照基督徒这个名字，让我们反思，对照，悔改。从现在起，如同耶稣一样，所做所为“没有一件是凭着自己，都是按父的教导，都是父所喜悦的”。
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.
