等⋯⋯⋯⋯待。一個不值得等待的字眼。一個相等於苦的感受。一個生死未卜的聯想。卻是後現代的良藥，尤其當被等待的是我們，而主動等待的，是好牧人。但，凭什么他想等？

What is there to wait for in waiting? What if the one who doesn't deserve to be waited for was us, and yet that all we needed?

「四面楚歌，逢凶化吉」經常是基督徒想到約沙法就會出現的畫面，但到底《歷代志》真正要表達的信息是「有信心，有保庇」嗎？讓聖經自己來告訴你。

Is it really true that at the mention of the name "Jehoshaphat", it has to mean "have faith in God and you will have victory"? Is that what Chronicles are all about? Let's see what the Bible has to say to us.

大齋期實際上是在呼喚我們悔改，離棄罪惡，回歸上帝。後現代世界將罪相對化，孕育自戀、自尋、得勝主義的世代。但是十字架令人討厭的地方在於叫我們發現，人愈是自我肯定，就愈暴露自我無法完美自我的悲劇。我們都無法掌控任何事情，包括自己的生命。所以人類最大的知識，就是發現自己一無所知。聖經貫徹始終都在告訴我們人性何等墮落的情況，呼喚我們聽信福音，向主轉念，才能看見有光明未來的黎明曙光。

Lent bids us repent from our sins and return to God. In a postmodern world, even sin is relativized. We welcome the self-admiring, self-searching, and triumphal. But the more self-affirming we become, the more we need to face the honest truth, i.e. we can never be perfect. We can never be fully in control. And that is why the greatest self-discovery of knowledge, is the knowledge that I don't know. Scripture tells us this truth right from the first narrative of humankind. Today, open up your heart to hear the bidding of the gospel of our Lord.

Isn’t it an irony that although books like Isaiah are so lengthy yet so seldom preached in many Christian churches. The season of Advent (and Christmas) bids us look forward in anticipation to the reappearing of the Lord. The NT writers could do so because of the relentless prophetic voices of people like Isaiah, Ezekiel, Jeremiah and all the prophets of the Hebrew Bible. Let us not be carried away by trolls of Yuletide carousals and nugatory shopping craze. Lest we forget the Reason for the season. Lest we forget. .
