马太福音 Matthew 7:24-27

WHAT KIND OF HOUSE ARE YOU BUILDING?

你在建造怎样的房子？

两种建筑工人 - (i) 聪明的建筑工人 (ii) 愚蠢的建筑工人 Two kinds of Builders – (i) the wise builders (ii) the foolish builders

1. 我们所建造的房子 THE HOUSE WE BUILD

2. 房子必须经过检验！ BUILDING HAS TO BE TESTED!

我们不只要建造美丽和舒适的房子而必须建造一间能抵御风暴，雨水和大浪的房子。

We must not only build our house for beauty and comfort but

we must build a house that can take the storms, the rain and

the raging waters into consideration.

风暴将以不同的形式进入我们的生命。 Storms can come in many forms into our lives.

A) 风暴可能伪装成

一个极大的引诱。

Storms may come

in the guise of a

great temptation.

B) 风暴可能伪装成

个人的痛苦损失。

Storms may come

in the guise of some

bitter personal loss.

C) 风暴可能以财富的形式出现。

(出16章)

对大卫王(诗篇27:4)，就是居住在神的

家里。

对亚伯拉罕，就是“顺服神”. (创15:6)

对约瑟，就是完成神在他的生命和以色列民族的计划。(创45:5)

Storms may come in the form of

prosperity. (Exodus 16)

For King David (Psalm 27:4), it was to dwell in

the house of God.

For Abraham, it was to be “obedient to God.”

(Gen. 15:6)

For Joseph, it was to fulfill the plan of God for

his life and the nation of Israel ....Gen. 45:5.

D) 风暴可能是审判时最后的实验。

每个人都需面对审判时的最后试验。

马太福音12:36 ; 罗马书14:12 ; 启示录20:13

Storms may come as the final test at the Judgment.

Everyone will face the day of final test.

Matt. 12:36 ; Rom. 14:12 ; Rev. 20:13

如何建立我们的根基？ How do we build our foundation?

每页顺序的读神的话。

别仓促阅读神的话语。

以祷告的心慢慢的读。

圣经旁备有笔和笔记簿。

写下日期和神向你说的话。

Read the word of God one page at a time.

Don’t rush reading the word of God.

Read slowly and with a prayerful heart.

Always have pen and a note book beside your Bible.

Write it down the day and date and what the word of God has spoken to you.

读圣经时向自己发问问题：

了解背景和经文的内容： Ask yourselves questions as you read the Bible:

Understand the context of what the passage is saying:

这段经文对我有何意义？为何如此引述？

这段经文可应用在我的身上吗？若可以，我应如何运用此经文在

我的生命中？

哪些事是我应该顺从？哪些事是我不应该做的？

思考/默想神向你说的话。

What does this passage of scripture mean to me? Why does it say that?

Does this passage apply to me? If it does, then how do I apply this passage to my life.

Is there any thing that I should obey and do? Or anything I should not do.

Think/Meditate upon the word the Lord spoke to you.
