Share also some ways that you had (in the past) or will (in the future) respond to this love live a life of love (v.2a), one step at a time. 2. 你自己可能不會說淫詞妄語黃色笑話 (4 節上 ) 但對於這些話你的接納程度是什麼 : 你已經習以為常, 麻木了或甚至感到舒服自在呢? 你是否有時會因同事的壓力而對於這些話表示接納? 怎樣可以有智慧地又不太耿直地回被這些話題? May be you yourself do not speak obscenity, foolish talk, dirty jokes (v.4a). But to what extent are you used to, numb to such talks, or even comfortable with such. Are you sometimes pressured by your colleagues to act OK with such talks? What is a wise and not-too-blunt way to stay away from such talks? 3. 分享一般人試圖以虛浮的話欺哄人的經驗 (6 節 ) 需要花多長時間我才察覺到? 什麼有幫助? 什麼沒有? Share some experience of people trying to deceive you with empty words (v.6). How long did it take me to notice it? What helped and what didn t? 節與第 5 節之間有什麼關聯? 第 5 節與第 6 節又如何? 基於第 5 節的事實, 神的處方是什麼? What is the relationship between vv.1-4 and v.5? What about v.5 and v.6? Based on the truth in v.5, what is God s prescription? 思 [ 設計及意向 ] 第 5 節是 1-4 節勸告及第 6 節最後的警告的推動 [Design & Intention] V.5 is the motivation for both the Exhortation in vv.1-4 as well as the Concluding Warning in v.6. 所以 1-6 節是有效地說 So vv.1-6 is effectively saying: a) 因為第 5 節 Because of v.5 = 你們確實的知道 : 沒有拜偶像的 ( 定義為具有任何所列的特徵中 ) 能與神的國有分 You can be sure: No idolater (defined as having any of the listed characters) has any inheritance in the Kingdom b) 我們應該做 1-4 節 We should do vv.1-4 = 該效法神 : Be imitators of God : 成為被神所親愛的 Being beloved of God 活出一個充滿愛的生命 Live-out a Life of Love 思經文思考問題用個人生活應用問題 1

2 但不是一個含有一點污濁的愛, 濫愛 But not a hint of corrupted love, abuse of love c) 我們不應做第 6 節 We should not do v.6 = 被虛浮的話欺哄 Be deceived by empty words 神的處方 = 以上 #b) 及 #c) 為了讓我們能與神的國有分 ( 即不落入第 5 節所描述的情況 ) God s prescriptions = #b) and #c) above in order for us to have an inheritance in the Kingdom (i.e. not falling into the situation described in v.5) 2. 我可以怎樣提醒自己 How can I remind myself: 用要記住第 5 節 to remember v.5 要做 1-4 及 6 節 to do vv.1-4 and v.6 福音性問題 EVANGELISTIC QUESTIONS* 1. 從 5:1-6 節的結構, 我們注意到, 中心是在第 5 節因此, 我們從第 5 節開始 : 誰將與神的國無分呢? From the structure of 5:1-6, we notice that the centre is in v.5. So, we begin with v.5: Who will not have a part (or inheritance) in the Kingdom of God? 2. 如果這是真的, 從 1-4 節中, 建議我們做什麼? 你認為這是個好主意嗎?If this is true, what is recommended for us to do (vv.1-4)? Do you think it s a good idea? *3. 你認為我們做好這些好事, 就有資格得永生嗎? 為什麼不呢?Do you think we qualify for the Kingdom (or eternal life) by doing these good things? Why not? *4. 還有其他宗教告訴人們要做好事那麼, 有什麼分別呢?There are other religions that tell people to do good. So, what s the difference? 5. 根據這段經文 (6 節 ), 如果我們沒有活出永生的生命 ( 如在 1-4 節 ), 將會發生什麼事?According to this passage (v.6), if we do not live out an eternal life (as in vv.1-4), what will happen? *6. 但有些宗教說, 神是完全的愛及完全的寬容是否他們所講的神比聖經中的神更好呢 ( 或這些只是虛浮的話 )?But some religion says that God is all love and all forgiving isn t that God a better God than the God in the Bible (or are these just empty words )? 第二勸勉 Second Exhortation 5:7-14 I. 勸勉 Exhortation :7-8 II. 敘述 Description :9-11 III. 推動 [ 原則與詳細闡述 ] Motivation [principle & elaboration] :12-14 彼此認識的問題 GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER QUESTIONS# 1. 不要與他們同夥 (7 節 ) 意味著不同的孤立的不同尋常的你有沒有一些個人的經驗? 是否棘手? 什麼幫助你突破出來? 並可能有助你深入洞穴探究?

And may contribute to your caving in? 思經文思考問題用個人生活應用問題 2

Have you personal, or have seen someone, fallen into such a trap (i.e. spent a lot of time and resources on something questionable, and later found that it s not worth it / fruitless )? 1. 總之, 第 7 及 8 節下這兩部分的信息是什麼? 一般而言, 一個基督徒的生活應當是怎樣的? 思 Together, what message does the two parts (v.7 and v.8b) make? In general terms, what should a Christian s life be like? [ 設計及意向 ] 其結構像一個三文治 : 肉在中間 (8 節上 ), 原因及推動 ; 兩片麵包 : 前 (7 節 ), 後 (8 節下 ) [Design & Intention] The structure is like a sandwich: the meat is in the middle (v.8a), the reason & motivation; the 2 pieces of bread are before (v.7) and after (v.8b). 第八節上, 肉 = 原因及推動 = 我們現在現在不同 ( 從我們曾經是 ), 我們在裡是光 :8a, the meat = the reason / motivation = we are NOW different (from what we ONCE WERE), we are Light in the Lord 有了這個推動, 我們有這對反應 ( 一正, 一負 )With this motivation, we are to have this pair of response (one positive, and one negative): 第七節 [ 負面 ] 禁止 : 不要與他們同夥 :7 [negative] Prohibition: Do not be partners with them 第八節下 [ 正面 ] 勸勉 : 成為光明之子 :8b [positive] Exhortation: Be Children of Light 這是一個基督徒應有的生活 This is what a Christian s life should be like. 2. 在兩個勸勉的開始 ( 分別在 1 及 8 節 ), 它們如何攜手合作? How do the beginning verses of the two Exhortations (v.1 and v.8 respectively) work together? 思 [ 設計及意向 ] 比較 1 和 8 節看它們如何攜手合作 [Design & Intention] Compare v.1 and v.8 to see how the 2 can work together. 1 節鑰字 = 愛 V. 1 key word = love 8 節鑰字 = 光 V. 8 key word = light 這兩個勸勉是使用兩個不同的驅動器以達到同一目標 The 2 exhortations are applying 2 different drives to aim at the same goal. 3. 我怎樣做? 我的強項在哪裡? 我可以怎樣改善我的弱點?How am I doing? Where am I stronger? How can I improve on my weak area? 用 4. 考慮這兩個推動 (5 和節 ): 它們是什麼組成的? Consider the 2 motivations (v.5 and vv.12-14): what are they consist of? 思 [ 設計及意向 ] 考慮這兩個推動 [Design & Intention] Compare the 2 motivations: 5 節鑰字 = 繼承神的國 ( 注 1:18 節下的得基業 ) (note 1:18b on inheritance) 節鑰字 = 基督就要光照你 V key word = Christ will shine on you V.5 key word = inheritance in the Kingdom 節如何描述一個光明之子? 誰是光 (14 節下 )? How does vv describe a Child of Light? Who is the Light (v.14b)? 思 [ 設計及意向 ] 透過這段經文把神學概念帶到現實生活中 [Design & Intention] Use this passage to bring a theological concept into real life. 思經文思考問題用個人生活應用問題 3

4 13-14 節一些光明之子的具體描述 ( 但並不詳盡 ) vv describe a Child of Light in some (but not exhaustive) concrete terms: 一切事物都公開 ( 顯露顯明 ) 在光之下 Everything open (exposed, visible) under the light 醒過來, 從死裡復活 ( 即死 / 老我 ) Wake up, rise from the dead (the dead / old self) 基督光照我們 Christ shinning on us 因此, 基督本身是最終的光源我們反射祂的光 Therefore, Christ Himself is the ultimate source of light we reflect the light. 6. 我怎樣做才能活在光明中? 你這睡着的人, 當醒過來這呼喚如何應用在我身上?How am I doing in the life of Light? How does the call: Wake up, O sleeper apply to me? 用福音性問題 EVANGELISTIC QUESTIONS 1. 根據 8 節下, 光明之子活出善良公義和真理對你來說, 那類生活好嗎? 你嚮往嗎? 但仔細看看 : 要求活出這類生活是否太大壓力呢? 你有否認識一些基督徒, 他們是如此緊張地要正確的生活, 以至使你想到 : 我不希望像這樣? According to v.8b, children of light are to live out goodness, righteousness, and truth. To you, is that kind of life good and desirable? But take a second look: doesn t the demand to live out such kind of life too stressful? Do you know some Christians who are so uptight in living right that you would think: I don t want to be like that!? [Note, EBS leaders: There are times we need to be honest with seekers. The design here is to show non-christians, from the Bible, that there are Christians who wrongly live their lives, in the right direction, but with the wrong power or drive] *2. 以上所述的生活是否是你所渴望的? 你是否認為有第三個途徑? 你想找出它嗎? 在 5:18 節下, 保羅將會指出它的關鍵在於被聖靈充滿 Is that kind of life (described above) one that you desire? Do you think there is a third way? Would you like to find out? Paul would come to this point later in the letter in 5:18b, where he pointed to the key: be filled with the Spirit. 3. 暗中所行的事(12 節 ), 即在沒有人注意這就是真正的考驗品格你認為大多數的人會做什麼? 是什麼推動 / 促使人做正確的事? Things done in secret (v.12), i.e. when no one is looking this is the real test of character. How do you think most people would do? what is right? What would motivate / move people to do 4. 這裡 12 節所說悖逆之子在暗中所行的事被描述為可恥甚至提到雖然現代西方文明不把恥辱這觀念認真對待 ( 如反對較為舊的西方, 以及東方文明 ), 很明顯在這段經文看到它是否指到某種在良心上推動的力量? 如果是這樣, 這是否意味它有強勁的力量足以讓大多數人不犯錯 / 不作不道德的事, 當沒有人知道時? Here (v.12) things done in secret by the disobedient are described as shameful even to mention. While the contemporary Western civilization does not take the concept of shame seriously (as oppose to the older Western, as well as Eastern civilizations), it was evident in this passage. Does it point to some sort of motivating force in the conscience? If so, does this passage imply that it is strong enough to keep most people from doing the wrong / immoral things when no one knows? [Note: This point to an apparent impasse: The motivating force shame is in our conscience there is no excuse. However, it is not strong enough for most of us, most of the time when there is no one watching. Again, this points forward to the key in 5:18b. Simply put, one can do it only if one is being filled / controlled by the Spirit moment by moment. ] D) 5:15 6:9 原則與含意 ( 四 ) Principle & Implications IV 要謹慎活出你的生活 Be Careful with How you live your Life [ 總體 ] 你的生活 : 注意, 嚴謹的態度, 採取適當行動 (15 節上 ) [Overarching] Your Life: Take Care, Be 思經文思考問題用個人生活應用問題 4

Make the most of every opportunity (v.16): What is easier, be sensitive enough to notice an opportunity, or be decisive enough to capture the opportunity before it s gone? Can you give a personal example of either one or both? 2. 當用詩章頌詞靈歌彼此對說 (19 節上 ), 口唱心和的讚美主 (19 節下 ): 對你來說, 那情況較多? 你能否分享一個個人的例子任何一或兩者? Speak to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs (v.19a), Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord (v.19b): For you, which happens more often? Can you give a personal example of either one or both? [Challenge to the Group leader: Formulate a similar question for v.20, or for v.21 ] 1. 這是第四原則與其含意你還記得其他三個嗎? 這四方面如何互相連結起來? This is the 4 th Principle with Its Implications do you remember which are the other three? How does the four of them connect to each other? 思 2. 第四原則的主題是什麼?What is the subject of the 4 th Principle? 思 [ 設計及意向 ] 我們的目的是把 (5:15-6:9 節 ) 接回 4:1-16 節 [Design & Intention] The intention is to tie this section (5:15 6:9) back to 4:1-16. 重溫大綱 Review the Outline: [I] 4:2-16 成長的總原則 Overarching Principle of Growth [II] 4:17-6:9 含意 / 實踐 Implications / Implementations A) 4:17-24 Principle & Implications I begins with the transitional word therefore B) 4:25-32 Principle & Implications II begins with the transitional word therefore C) 5:1-14 Principle & Implications III begins with the transitional word therefore D) 5:15-6:9 Principle & Implications IV begins with the transitional word therefore 換句話說,4:2-16 是總原則或基礎, 它驅動以下 4 部分應讀作 : 4:2-16, 因此 4:17-24, 然後 4:2-16, 因此 4:25-32, 然後 4:2-16, 因此 5:1-14, 然後 4:2-16, 因此 5:15-6:9 因此, 這 4 部分是相互平行的,4:2-16 如何從 4 個更具體的角度去實踐現在, 就放大到 5:15-6:9 4:2-16( 基礎 ) 關於屬靈成長與教會增長對上述其中一個實踐 = 5:15-6:9 = 原則與含意 ( 四 ) = 要謹慎活出你的生活換句話說, 要謹慎如何活出我們的生活是其中一個帶來屬靈成長與教會增長的關鍵 In other words, 4:2-16 is the overarching principle or the basis, which drives the 4 sections that follow. It should read: 4:2-16, therefore 4:17-24, and then 4:2-16, therefore 4:25-32, and then 4:2-16, therefore 5:1-14, and then 4:2-16, therefore 5:15-6:9. So, the 4 sections are parallel to each other, 4 angles of how 4:2-16 is implemented in more concrete terms. Now, zooming onto 5:15 6:9, 思經文思考問題用個人生活應用問題 5

6 4:2-16 (the basis) of spiritual growth & church growth One implementation of the above is = 5:15 6:9 = Principle & Implications IV = Be Careful with How you live your Life In other words, to be careful with how we live our lives is one key (of many) to bring spiritual growth and church growth. 3. 我對這原則有什麼回應?What is my response to this principle? 用 4. 在 15 下 -18 節關於一個謹慎的生活, 這裡繪畫出一幅怎樣的圖像? 請列出當中所描述的三個層面 In vv. 15b-18, what are the pictures painted for a carefully lived life? What are the 3 dimensions listed here? 思 [ 設計及意向 ] 該設計是要帶出第三方面的謹慎行事 [Design & Intention] The design is to bring out the 3 dimensions of a careful life : a) :15b-16 = 不要像愚昧人 Not as un-wise 智慧 Wise b) :17 = 不要作糊塗人 Not as foolish ( 無命名 not named) c) :18-21 [ 6:9] = 不要醉酒 Not drunk with wine 被聖靈充滿 filled with the Spirit 小組可選擇討論其中一方或所有都討論 ; 但我們必須意識到這三方面的存在和它們都是必須的這問題的答案是準備我們在接下來的問題 The discussion group can have the discussion on either 1 or 2 or all 3; but we have to be aware of the existence and necessity of all 3. The answer to this question prepares us for the next question. 5. 三個層面當中, 哪一個我最強? 哪方面我最弱?In which of the 3 dimensions am I the strongest? Where am I the weakest? 用 6. 我怎麼能被聖靈充滿?How can I be filled with the Spirit? 思 [ 設計及意向 ] 該設計是為了讓每個小組成員都開始被聖靈充滿或更新他 / 她被聖靈充滿更合乎聖經然而, 被聖靈充滿的定義除了隱含在 5:18 上外, 在這段經文並不明確當你醉了, 你不能再控制自己 ; 你讓喝控制自己在 5:18 上, 我們被命令不要醉酒有什麼不對, 與其說是把我們的控制權讓出因為保留我們的控制於不足和軟弱的自我 ( 即老我 ) 也好不了多少醉酒有什麼不對, 這使我們讓出控制而喝是一個更糟糕的候選人這樣, 被聖靈充滿好像被酒充滿 = 你不能再控制自己 ; 你讓聖靈控制在四個屬靈定律的措詞中, 就是讓聖靈在你生命的寶座上 [Design & Intention] The design is to have everyone in the group to either begin being filled with the Spirit or renew his/her being filled with the Spirit in a more Biblical sense. However, the definition of being filled of the Spirit is not explicit in this passage but just implicit in 5:18a. When you are drunk, you no longer have control over yourself; you yield the control to the drink. In v.18a, we are commanded not to get drunk what is wrong is not so much is yielding our control. Because retaining our control by our inadequate and weak self (i.e. old self) is not much better. What is wrong with getting drunk is in the party to which we yield our control drink is a worse candidate. So, being filled with the Spirit is like being filled with the drink = you no longer have control over yourself; you yield the control to the Spirit. Spirit on the throne of your life.

7 7. 我願意被聖靈充滿嗎?Am I willing to be filled with the Spirit? 用 8. 被聖靈充滿是如何顯露在節中?How is being filled with the Spirit manifested in vv.19-21? 思 [ 設計及意向 ] 本段的目的是為了幫助那些已經被聖靈充滿的, 知道什麼顯露該珍惜或懲戒 [Design & Intention] The intention is to use this passage to help those who are already being filled with the Spirit to know what manifestations to treasure or to discipline. a) [ 橫 ] 彼此對說 [horizontal] speak to one another with b) [ 直 ] 讚美主 [vertical] praise to the Lord c) [ 直 ] 常常感謝神 [vertical] always give thanks to God d) [ 橫 ] 彼此順服 [horizontal] submit to one another 9. 我最強是什麼? 最弱是什麼? 我該如何改善?Which is my strongest? Which is my weakest? How can I improve? 用福音性問題 EVANGELISTIC QUESTIONS 1. 當你考慮過一個精明的生活, 你會想到什麼? 在節, 你會想到什麼?What do you think of when you consider a smart life? What do you think of the ones in vv.15-18? *2. 就像一輛汽車的方向需要確定於誰是控制方向盤者, 一個人的人生方向, 也是取決於誰控制他的靈魂誰正在控制你的靈魂呢? 一個人能否信得過他 / 她自己去控制自己的靈魂嗎?[ 重溫第 2 及 4 題的最後部分 ] Just as the direction that a car takes is determined by the person who is controlling the steeringwheel, one s direction in life is determined by who is controlling the soul. Who is controlling your soul? Should one trust him-/her-self in controlling one s soul? [Review #2 and #4 in the last section] 3. 當有人喝醉了, 他還能自我控制嗎? 那麼, 誰 ( 或什麼 ) 控制他的行為和他的靈魂呢? 所以, 一個人能使控制他的靈魂屈服嗎? 但通常, 這種屈服是不明智的, 對嗎?When someone is drunk, does he still have control over himself? Then, who (or what) controls his behaviour and his soul? So, can one yield control of her soul? But usually, such yielding is not wise, right? 4. 請問把你的控制權讓給神 ( 聖靈 ) 是一個例外嗎?[ 即那是唯一放棄我們靈魂的控制, 是我們嚮往的及為更好的 ] 當一個人把生命主權交給聖靈控制, 你覺得會發生什麼改變?Would yielding your control to God (His Spirit) be an exception? [i.e. the only yielding of our soul s control that is desirable and for the better]. What do you think would happen when one yields the control of one s life to the Spirit? *5. 怎樣才能把生命主權交給神? 一個人能怎樣祈求被聖靈充滿?How does one yield the control of his life to God? How does one pray to be filled with the Spirit? 彼此代禱 : 小組成員可為你甚麼事情禱告, 請分享思經文思考問題用個人生活應用問題 7
