It is also known as “Ghost Festival” in Taoism, or ULLAMBANA in Buddhism. 中元節的傳說The legend of the “ghost month”. 約書亞記 1:9 我豈沒有吩咐你嗎?你當剛強壯膽! 不要懼怕,也不要驚惶;因為你無論往那裡去, 耶和華你的神必與你同在。」 Joshua 1:9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go. 基督徒敢平安,憑藉的是神的應許!神與我同在,我 就不懼怕,就能平安! Christians dare to believe in peace on account of God’s promise. God is with me, therefore I do not fear. I could have peace! 此外,我們的平安憑恃的是一個名字— 耶穌。祂還有 許多的稱呼,其中的一個就是“和平的君” Furthermore, our peace is dependent on one name, Jesus! One of His title is: “Prince of peace”. 以賽亞書9: 6-7 因有一嬰孩為我們而生;有一子賜給我們。 政權必擔在他的肩頭上; 他名稱為 「奇妙策士、全能的神、永在的父、和平的君」。 他的政權與平安必加增無窮。 他必在大衛的寶座上治理他的國, 以公平公義使國堅定穩固,從今直到永遠。 萬軍之耶和華的熱心必成就這事。 Isaiah9: 6 For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. 7 There will be no end to the increase of His government or of peace, On the throne of David and over his kingdom, To establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness From then on and forevermore. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will accomplish this. 為什麽耶穌是你可以靠著勝過懼怕, 進入平安的? Why we can count on Jesus to overcome fear and enjoy peace? 1. 耶穌眷顧你們,為你們實行救贖 Jesus has visited you and accomplished redemption for you. 2. 先知預言神要藉耶穌拯救我們 God already promised salvation by His prophets. 這是祂在創世以先就預定好的旨意。祂定意要救你。 He has purposed to save you. 3. 耶穌救我們脫離魔鬼和敵人 Jesus saves you from your enemies. 約翰一書4: 1 親愛的弟兄啊,一切的靈,你們不可都信, 總要試驗那些靈是出於神的不是, 因為世上有許多假先知已經出來了。 2凡靈認耶穌基督是成了肉身來的,就是出於神的; 從此你們可以認出神的靈來。 3凡靈不認耶穌,就不是出於神;這是那敵基督者的 靈。你們從前聽見他要來,現在已經在世上了。 4小子們哪,你們是屬神的,並且勝了他們;因為那 在你們裡面的,比那在世界上的更大。 1John 4: 1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; 3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world. 4 You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. 4. 神對你的眷顧保守賜福是終身的 God’s promise to you is forever. 約翰14:27 我留下平安給你們;我將我的平安賜給你們。 我所賜的,不像世人所賜的。 你們心裏不要憂愁,也不要膽怯。 John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful. 不讓恐懼成為你作任何決定的動機,而是信心。 Never motivated by fear, but by faith; never walk in fear but in faith! 5. 耶穌自己是你的聖潔公義 Jesus is your holiness and righteousness. 林前 1:30 但你們得在基督耶穌裡,是本乎神,神又使他成為我 們的智慧、公義、聖潔、救贖。 1Corinthians 1:30 30 But by His doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption. 6. 耶穌引導你的腳走平安的道路 Jesus guides your feet into the way of peace. 耶穌, 我平安的憑據!Jesus is the reason of my peace!
