經文: 來：11：1 – 12：3

講員: 于宏潔 弟兄

綱要:

(一)   列祖們因著信，看見並追求那______________

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> 我們因著信，就知道諸世界是藉　神話造成的；這樣，所看見的，並不是從顯然之物造出來的。 (?/span>the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible)

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> 因我們行事為人是憑著信心，不是憑著眼見。(林後 5:7)

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>  16 所以，我們不喪膽。外體雖然毀壞，內心卻一天新似一天。 17 我們這至暫至輕的苦楚，要為我們成就極重無比、永遠的榮耀。 18 原來我們不是顧念所見的，乃是顧念所不見的；因為所見的是暫時的，所不見的是永遠的。(林後4:16-18)

(二) 列祖們因著信，活出了______________【或作：得了______________】

v 亞伯 /以諾 /挪亞 /亞伯拉罕 / 以撒 / 雅各 / 約瑟 / 摩西?#21152;上許多『無名的得勝者』 

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> 以摩西為例(來11：24-29)

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> 參見背誦經文(來11：13-16)

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> 33 他們因著信(?#21508;種得勝的見証 v33-38?/span>)本是世界不配有的人。39 這些人都是因信得了美好的證據，卻仍未得著所應許的； 40 因為神給我們預備了更美的事，叫他們若不與我們同得，就不能完全。

v 他們在信心裡所持定的兩大應許：

(1)  ______________ (彌賽亞第一次的降臨)

(2)  _____________________ (彌賽亞第二次的降臨)

－藉著________________與________________的降臨來表達 (啟 21：1-2)-

(三)  新約聖徒們該有的回應

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> 『我們既有這許多的見證人，如同雲彩圍著我們，就當

a)     ___________________，

b)     __________________________，

c)     存心忍耐，______________­­­­________，  

d)     ______為我們信心創始成終的耶穌?/span>』

祂因那擺在前面的喜樂，就輕看羞辱，忍受了十字架的苦難，便坐在　神寶座的右邊。 那忍受罪人這樣頂撞的，你們要思想，免得疲倦灰心。(來12：1-3)

 

【問題回饋】

1. 一個人是否有信心，會帶來那些不同的表現？藉著組員們關於這點的交通，請小組長整理出你們小組對『信心重要性』的結論。

2. 請每一位組員交通希伯來書第11章其中一位信心列祖在他信心見証上對你的幫助。是在那一個點上特別幫助了你？

 

 

 

Examine 『Christ Alone』 Through Hebrews (9)

(D)  Christ Alone (2) -  By faith : Live out the good testimony(continued)

Speaker: Brother Hung Yu

Outline:

（A）By faith the patriarchs saw and pursued that which ______________________

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>  By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>  For we walk by faith, not by sight. (2 Corinthians 5:7)

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>  16 Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. 17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, 18 while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:16-18)

（B）By faith the patriarchs lived out _______________ 【or: obtained __________________】

v Abel/Enoch/Noah/Abraham/Issac/Jacob/Joseph/Moses... and many 『unnamed victors』

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>  Moses as example (Hebrews 11：24-29)

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>  Refer to memory verse (Hebrews 11：13-16)

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>  33 who through faith (...  various testimonies of victory v33-38) of whom the world was not worthy. 39 And all these, having obtained a good testimony through faith, did not receive the promise, 40 God having provided something better for us, that they should not be made perfect apart from us.

v Two promises they held onto through faith：

(1)                                                   (Messiah誷 first coming)
(2)                                                              (Messiah誷 second coming)

－Expressed through the coming of                     , and ____________________ (Revelations 21：1-2)

（C）The response the New Testament saints should have

?span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'>  『Since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us

a)     _________________________,

b)    _____________________________________,

c)     run with endurance the _____________________,  

d)    ____________ Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith?#12303;

who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.  For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls. (Hebrews 12：1-3)
