Psalm 119:25-32

Life is a journey we travel along a dark and dangerous path. Do you know where you are going? Are you sure the path you are on will lead you there?

人生是一段旅程，常常要走在黑暗又危險的道路上。你知道自己要往哪裡去嗎？你確定現在走的這條路，真能帶你到達想去的地方嗎？

God's law is not a list of rules to perform but an expression of a covenant of love. The blessings and demands of the Old Testament show us our need for Jesus. He is our reward.

神的律法不是一份要我們完成的規條清單，而是愛的約所流露出來的表達。舊約裡的祝福與要求，讓我們看見自己多麼需要耶穌。祂就是我們真正的賞賜。

Andy Matsuoka spoke to City Light at the Installation of our new pastor, Jon Paivarinta. Andy encourages us to persevere in the truth by constantly preaching and trusting in the gospel.

Andy 牧師在新牧師 Jon 的就職主日來到城市之光講道。Andy 鼓勵我們透過持續的傳福音及信靠福音來持守真理。

How can our lives be filled with so much content, so much information, but we still feel empty? Isaiah cries out, inviting you to a rich feast which will eternally satisfy.

即便我們的生活裡充滿這麼多的內容和資訊，但我們卻仍然感到空虛？以賽亞大聲呼喊，並邀請你參加一場豐盛的筵席，這筵席會帶給我們永恆的滿足。

The hope of the Gospel propels us to consider whether or not the promises of the Kingdom of Heaven are real. If not, do whatever you want to do. If yes, then the difficulties in obtaining the Kingdom of Heaven, as described in the Letter to the Hebrews, are worth any sacrifice.

福音的盼望促使我們思考天國的應許是否為真。如果沒有，那就做任何你想做的事。如果是的話，那麼正如《希伯來書》中所描述的， 為了擁有天國所遇到的困難是值得任何犧牲的。

Coming to the end of the letter, the author of Hebrews leaves us with roughly ten application points. Ranging from models for life, to marriage, to obeying leaders this list gives us all something to think about and then practically apply to our day to day lives. 

希伯來書的作者在書信的結尾，留下了大約十個應用要點。從人生典範到婚姻，再到順服領袖，這份清單值得我們每個人思考，並實際應用在日常生活中。

Hebrews 12 encourages believers to endure through difficulties, because we’ve come to a Savior who is our only way to God

希伯來書第十二章鼓勵信徒們在困境中要堅忍，因為有一位救主成為了我們通往神唯一的道路

Hebrews 12:1 tells us to run the race set out for us. This week, we look at the story of Wang Mingdao, a man who did just that by always looking to Jesus.

希伯來書 12:1 告訴我們要奔那擺在前面的道路。本週透過王明道的故事，我們看見，他如何在向著標竿前進的過程，繼續仰望耶穌。

In the famous chapter on faith, we find a succinct definition, an honor roll of faithful men and women in the old testament, and are told just how important faith is to God. But there is a deeper theme here of finding our way home that echoes one of the central stories of both Old and New Testaments. From the Garden of Eden, to the New Jerusalem, the journey to a home where we can be with God is our journey. And it means we are both pilgrims and exiles, and that means something for how we should live.

在眾人皆知的信心章節中，我們看到了簡明的定義，在舊約中忠心的角色，並了解信心對神有多重要。但這裡還有一個更深層的主題，那就是尋找回家的路，這與舊約和新約的核心故事之一相呼應。從伊甸園到新耶路撒冷，通往與神同在的家園的這段路就是我們的旅程。這意味著我們既是朝聖者，也是寄居者，這對我們應該如何生活有著深遠的意義。

In chapter 10, Hebrews continues to explain how Jesus has transformed the old rituals, roles, and places of the Old Covenant. And it is based on those changes and the forgiveness that we now can experience through Christ that the author calls us to some points of application: that we should stir one another up, continue meeting together, draw near to God, and persevere no matter the trials. It is an important reminder, especially as we celebrate Easter.

希伯來書第十章繼續解釋耶穌如何改變了舊約的儀式、角色和場所。正是基於這些改變，以及我們現在藉著基督所經歷的赦免，作者呼籲我們應用這些改變：我們應該彼此激勵，持續聚會，親近神，並且無論遭遇什麼試煉都要堅忍不拔。這是一個重要的提醒，尤其是在我們慶祝復活節之際。
