1 Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy, 2 fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. 3 Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. 4 Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.
1 所以,在基督里若有什么劝勉,爱心有什么安慰,圣灵有什么交通,心中有什么慈悲怜悯,2你们就要意念相同,爱心相同,有一样的心思,有一样的意念,使我的喜乐可以满足。3凡事不可结党,不可贪图虚浮的荣耀;只要存心谦卑,各人看别人比自己强。4各人不要单顾自己的事,也要顾别人的事。
Phil 2:1-4(腓立比书 2:1-4)
Q & A:
- Do you see yourself on a cruise ship or on an aircraft carrier when you attend ICS? Are you the missing piece of a jigsaw puzzle to make the church complete? What areas of interest or gifts or calling has God entrusted you to serve Him? (Phi 2:1-4, 1 Tim 4:13-15)
- 你参加ICS时,你认为自己是在乘坐游轮或是在航空母舰上? 你是使教会完整拼图中缺少的那一块吗? 在哪些领域上你觉得是有兴趣、有恩赐的或是你的呼召来服事上帝?(腓立比书 2:1-4; 提摩太前书4:13-15)
- Explain what it means to be like-minded as how Timothy is to the Apostle Paul. Discuss what are the hindrances to church unity and what being of one accord and of one mind should be like for the local church. (Phil 2:19-20; Phil 2:3-4; 1 Cor 3:3)
- 解释意念相同是什么意思,犹如提摩太对于使徒保罗。详述教会合一的障碍,以及地方教会有一样的心思和有一样的意念应当是什么样的。(腓立比书2:19-20; 腓立比书2:3-4; 哥林多前书3:3)
- Discuss your understanding of the visions of ICS and how you can serve and bless the community? Explain what “koinonia” means and how have you been blessed through serving at various ministries?
- 讨论你对ICS的异象的理解。 你如何能为社区团体服事和成为他们的祝福呢?你在服事于各个不同教会的事工经历中,如何感受到是被祝福的?
