(Bilingual) このメッセージではモンティー牧師が神様がどのように私たちの人間関係を良くしてくれるのかについて以下の３つのポイントから話します。

In this message Ps Monty talks about how God makes your relationships better in these 3 points:

(1 Corinthians 13:4-7 NLT) Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud (5) or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. (6) It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. (7) Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.

(1コリント 13:4-7 JCB) 愛は寛容であり、親切です。愛は決してねたみません。また、決して自慢せず、高慢になりません。 (5) 決して思い上がらず、自分の利益を求めず、無礼なふるまいをしません。愛は自分のやり方を押し通そうとはしません。また、いら立たず、腹を立てません。人に恨みをいだかず、人から悪いことをされても気にとめません。 (6) 決して不正を喜ばず、いつも真理を喜びます。 (7) 愛は、どんな犠牲をはらっても誠実を尽くし、すべてを信じ、最善を期待し、すべてを耐え忍びます。

(Matthew 1:18-19 NLT) This is how Jesus the Messiah was born. His mother, Mary, was engaged to be married to Joseph. But before the marriage took place, while she was still a virgin, she became pregnant through the power of the Holy Spirit. (19) Joseph, to whom she was engaged, was a righteous man and did not want to disgrace her publicly, so he decided to break the engagement quietly.

(マタイ 1:18-19 JCB) イエス・キリストの誕生は次のとおりです。母マリヤはヨセフと婚約していました。ところが結婚する前に、聖霊によってみごもったのです。 (19) 婚約者のヨセフは、神の教えを堅く守る人でしたから、婚約を破棄しようと決心しました。しかし、人前にマリヤの恥をさらしたくなかったので、ひそかに縁を切ることにしました。

(Matthew 1:20-21 NLT) As he considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream. “Joseph, son of David,” the angel said, “do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife. For the child within her was conceived by the Holy Spirit. (21) And she will have a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”

(マタイ 1:20-21 JCB) ヨセフがこのことで悩んでいた時、天使が夢に現れて言いました。「ダビデの子孫ヨセフよ。ためらわないで、マリヤと結婚しなさい。マリヤは聖霊によってみごもったのです。 (21) 彼女は男の子を産みます。その子をイエス（「主は救い」の意）と名づけなさい。この方こそ、ご自分を信じる人々を罪から救ってくださるからです。

(Matthew 1:24-25 NLT) When Joseph woke up, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded and took Mary as his wife. (25) But he did not have sexual relations with her until her son was born. And Joseph named him Jesus.

(マタイ 1:24-25 JCB) 目が覚めるとヨセフは、天使の命じたとおり、マリヤと結婚しました。 (25) しかし、その子が生まれるまでは、マリヤに触れませんでした。そして、生まれた子をイエスと名づけました。

How can God make my relationships better?

どのように神様は私の人間関係を良くしてくれるの？

1) Listen to God’s Word

神様のことばに耳を傾ける

2) Act on God’s Word

神様のことばに従って行動する

3) Keep God at the Center of Your Relationships

人間関係の中心に神様を置き続ける

(Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 NLT) Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. (10) If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble. (11) Likewise, two people lying close together can keep each other warm. But how can one be warm alone? (12) A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.

(伝道者 4:9-12 JCB) 二人が手を組めば、一人の人の倍以上のことができます。結果から見れば、二人のほうがずっといいのです。 (10) 二人なら片方が倒れても、もう一方が起こせます。ところが、一人のときに倒れてしまうと、だれにも起こしてもらえず、何とも惨めです。

(11) また、寒い夜、二人が一枚の毛布でもかぶって寝れば、お互いの体温で暖かくなります。しかし一人では、どうにも暖まることができません。 (12) 一人では、攻撃を受けると負けてしまいます。しかし二人なら、背中合わせになって戦うことができ、相手に勝つことができます。三人なら、なおいいのです。三つ撚りの糸は、めったなことでは切れないからです。

(Luke 15:17-24 NLT) “When he finally came to his senses, he said to himself, ‘At home even the hired servants have food enough to spare, and here I am dying of hunger! (18) I will go home to my father and say, “Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, (19) and I am no longer worthy of being called your son. Please take me on as a hired servant.”’ (20) So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long way off, his father saw him coming. Filled with love and compassion, he ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him. (21) His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son.’ (22) “But his father said to the servants, ‘Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. Get a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet. (23) And kill the calf we have been fattening. We must celebrate with a feast, (24) for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.’ So the party began.'

(詩篇 16:11 JCB) 神は生きる喜びを教え、 永遠に共にいてくださるという 無上の喜びを経験させてくださいます。

(Psalm 16:11 NIV) You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

(ルカ 15:17-24 JCB) こんな毎日を送るうち、彼もやっと目が覚めました。『お父さんの家なら雇い人にだって、あり余るほど食べ物があるだろうに。なのに自分は、なんてみじめなんだ。こんな所で飢え死にしかけている。 (18) そうだ、家に帰ろう。帰って、お父さんに頼もう。「お父さん。すみませんでした。神様にもお父さんにも、罪を犯してしまいました。 (19) もう息子と呼ばれる資格はありません。どうか、雇い人として使ってください。」』 (20) 決心がつくと、彼は父親のもとに帰って行きました。ところが、家まではまだ遠く離れていたというのに、父親は息子の姿をいち早く見つけたのです。『あれが帰って来た。かわいそうに、あんなみすぼらしいなりで。』こう思うと、じっと待ってなどいられません。走り寄って抱きしめ、口づけしました。 (21) 『お父さん。すみませんでした。ぼくは、神様にもお父さんにも、罪を犯してしまいました。もう息子と呼ばれる資格はありません。』 (22)ところが父親は、使用人たちにこう言いつけたのです。『さあ、何をぼやぼやしている。一番良い服を出して、この子に着せてやりなさい。宝石のついた指輪も、くつもだ。(23) それから肥えた子牛を料理して、盛大な祝宴の用意をしなさい。(24) 死んだものとあきらめていた息子が生き返り、行方の知れなかった息子が帰って来たのだから。』こうして祝宴が始まりました。

(Luke 15:17-24 NLT) “When he finally came to his senses, he said to himself, ‘At home even the hired servants have food enough to spare, and here I am dying of hunger! (18) I will go home to my father and say, “Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, (19) and I am no longer worthy of being called your son. Please take me on as a hired servant.”’ (20) So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long way off, his father saw him coming. Filled with love and compassion, he ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him. (21) His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son.’ (22) “But his father said to the servants, ‘Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. Get a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet. (23) And kill the calf we have been fattening. We must celebrate with a feast, (24) for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.’ So the party began.'

1. 戻って来たことを喜んでくれる 

The Joy of Returning

(James 4:8 NLT) Come close to God, and God will come close to you.

(ヤコブ 4:8 JCB) 神に近づきなさい。そうすれば、神も近づいてくださいます。

2. 喜んで赦してくれる！

The Joy of Forgiveness

(2コリント 5:17 JCB) だれでもクリスチャンになると、内側が全く新しくされます。もはや今までと同じ人間ではありません。新しい人生が始まったのです。 

(2 Corinthians 5:17 NLT) “This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!”

3. 喜んで迎え入れる

The Joy of Acceptance 

(エペソ 1:5 JCB) 神の御心は、イエス・キリストを遣わし、その死によって、私たちを神の家族の一員として迎えることでした。

(Ephesians 1:5 NLT) “God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.”

4. パーティーを催すほど喜ぶ

The Joy of the Party 

(ゼパニヤ 3:17 JCB) あなたの神、主が、 あなたのうちに住むために到着したからだ。 この方は力ある救い主で、勝利をお与えになる。 あなたのことをことのほか喜ぶ。 あなたを愛し、責めることはなさらない。」 聞こえてくるのは、 喜びにあふれた聖歌隊の歌声だろうか。 いや、神が、あなたがたのことを喜び、 歌っているのだ。

(Zephaniah 3:17 NLT) “For the Lord your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He will take delight in you with gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.” 

(詩篇 30:11-12 JCB) すると、神は嘆きを喜びに変え、喪服を脱がせて、 きらびやかな晴れ着を着せてくださいました。 墓に埋められることなく、 神に喜ばしい賛美の歌声を上げるためです。 ああ神、主よ。 私はいつまでもこの感謝の気持ちを忘れません。

(Psalms 30:11-12 NLT) “You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy, (12) that I might sing praises to you and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give you thanks forever!”

(Bilingual) このメッセージでは登牧師が新しいシーズンが運んでくる新しいチャレンジへの向き合い方について以下の3つのポイントから話します。

In this message Ps Noboru talks about how to face challenges of the new season in these 3 points:

(イザヤ55:8:9 ERV訳) 神は語る・・・「わたしの思いは、お前の思いとは違い、お前のやり方は、わたしのやり方とは違う。(9) 天が地よりも高いように、わたしのやり方は、お前のやり方の上を行く。 わたしの思いは、お前の思いより遥か上だ。

(Isaiah 55:8-9 ERV) If you do these things, your light will begin to shine like the light of dawn. Then your wounds will heal. Your “Goodness” will walk in front of you, and the Glory of the Lord will come following behind you. (9) Then you will call to the Lord, and he will answer you. You will cry out to him, and he will say, ‘Here I am.’

(創世39:19-23 ERV訳) ヨセフの主人がこの話を妻から聞くと、彼はカンカンに怒り、(20) ヨセフをエジプト王が所有する牢屋に放り込んだのだ。 (21) そんな牢屋の中でも神はヨセフと共にいたため、神はヨセフを助け続けた。そのため刑務所長もヨセフのことを気に入り始めた。(22) すぐに刑務所長はヨセフを監視員として他の囚人たちがきちんと働いているかを監視する責任者として選んだ。(23) 所長は、ヨセフが全てをしっかりとこなしてくれるので、何の心配もなく絶大なる信頼を置いていた。 神がヨセフと共にいたため、ヨセフがすることなすこと全てが成功していった。

(Genesis 39:19-23 ERV) Joseph’s master listened to what his wife said, and he became very angry. (20) So Potiphar put Joseph into the prison where the king’s enemies were held, and that is where Joseph remained. (21) The Lord was with Joseph and continued to show his kindness to him, so the commander of the prison guards began to like Joseph. (22) The commander of the guards put Joseph in charge of all the prisoners. Joseph was their leader, but he still did the same work they did. (23) The commander of the guards trusted Joseph with everything that was in the prison. This happened because the Lord was with Joseph. The Lord helped Joseph be successful in everything he did.

1.ビジョンを見る！

See the Vision!

(ピリピ3:13-14 ERV訳)  兄弟、姉妹たちよ！私がまだその目標に達していないことぐらい自分で自覚している。しかし1つだけいつも心がけていることがある。それは過去のことを忘れ、自分の目の前にあるそのゴールに全集中で取り組むということだけだ。(14) フィニッシュ・ラインを目がけて全力で走り続け、そのゴール地点でもらえる賞を、すなわちイエス・キリストを通して私に約束された神からの人生を得るために全力で走っているのだ。

(Philipians 3:13-14 ERV) Brothers and sisters, I know that I still have a long way to go. But there is one thing I do: I forget what is in the past and try as hard as I can to reach the goal before me. (14) I keep running hard toward the finish line to get the prize that is mine because God has called me through Christ Jesus to life up there in heaven.

2.心をキレイに保つ！

Have a Clean Heart!

(マルコ2:21-22 ERV訳)  古着のつぎ当てに、新しい布を使う人はいない。そんなことをしたら、つぎ当てた新しい布が縮んで古着が破れてしまう！(22) また、新しいワインを古い革袋に入れる人もいない。そんなことをしたら、古い革袋は新しいワインの発酵に耐え切れずに破れ、革袋と一緒にワインまでダメになってしまう。新しいワインは、新しい革袋に入れるのがお決まりじゃあないか！」

(Mark 2:21-22 ERV) When someone sews a patch over a hole in an old coat, they never use a piece of cloth that is not yet shrunk. If they do, the patch will shrink and pull away from the coat. Then the hole will be worse. (22) Also, no one ever pours new wine into old wineskins. The wine would break them, and the wine would be ruined along with the wineskins. You always put new wine into new wineskins.

3.ピンチはチャンスの裏返し！

There’s Opportunity in Difficult Moments!

(ピリピ1:14 ERV訳) しかし、私が牢屋に入れられたことが原因で、多くのイエスを信じる者がイエスをさらに信頼するようになり、またそれが勇気へと変わって最高な知らせを広めていくことへと繋がっているのだ。

(Philippians 1:14 ERV) My being in prison has caused most of the believers to put their trust in the Lord and to show more courage in telling people God’s message.

(English) In this message Ps Catherine talks about if any good could come our of hard times in these 6 points:

(Luke 4:1-2 NIV) “Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, (2) where for forty days he was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of them he was hungry.”

1.The Father Loves You

2.The Holy Spirit is with You

(Luke 4:3-4 NIV) “The devil said to him, ‘If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.’ (4) Jesus answered, ‘It is written: Man shall not live on bread alone.’” 

3.Feed Yourself the Right Things

(Luke 4:5-12 NIV) “The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. (6) And he said to him, ‘I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to. (7) If you worship me, it will all be yours.’ (8) Jesus answered, ‘It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.’ (9) The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. ‘If you are the Son of God,’ he said, ‘throw yourself down from here. (10) For it is written: ‘He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; (11) they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’’ (12) Jesus answered, ‘It is said: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”

4.There is Always a Way Out

(1 Corinthians 10:13 ESV) “No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.” 

5.Trust in God’s Plan

(Luke 4:13-14 NIV) “When the devil had finished all this tempting, he left him until an opportune time. (14) Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and news about him spread through the whole countryside.” 

6.Empowered and Enlarged 

(James 1:2-4 TPT) “My fellow believers, when it seems as though you are facing nothing but difficulties, see it as an invaluable opportunity to experience the greatest joy that you can! (3) For you know that when your faith is tested it stirs up in you the power of endurance. (4) And then as your endurance grows even stronger, it will release perfection into every part of your being until there is nothing missing and nothing lacking.”

(English) In this message Ps Rod talks about how to experience fullness of joy in God's presence in these 3 points:

(Psalm 16:11 NIV) You make known to me the path of life;  you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

(Galatians 5:22-23 NIV) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, (23) gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

(Galatians 5:19-21 NIV) The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; (20) idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions (21) and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.

(Luke 5:3-5 NIV) He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out a little from shore. Then he sat down and taught the people from the boat. (4) When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.” (5) Simon answered, “Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets. 

1.The Power of Journaling

(1 Timothy 4:13 NIV) Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to preaching and to teaching.

(Luke 5:6-7 NIV) When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. (7) So they signalled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

2.The Power of Joy

(Luke 5:8-11 NIV) When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees and said, “Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man!” (9) For he and all his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken, (10) and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon’s partners. Then Jesus said to Simon, “Don’t be afraid; from now on you will fish for people.” (11) So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.

(Bilingual) このメッセージではロド牧師が神様の存在の中で喜びに満たされる方法について以下の3つのポイントから話します。

In this message Ps Rod talks about how to experience fullness of joy in God's presence in these 3 points:

(Psalm 16:11 NIV) You make known to me the path of life;  you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

(詩篇 16:11 JCB) 神は生きる喜びを教え、 永遠に共にいてくださるという 無上の喜びを経験させてくださいます。

(Galatians 5:22-23 NIV) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, (23) gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

(ガラテヤ 5:22-23 JCB) しかし、聖霊が生活を支配してくださる時、私たちのうちに、次のような実を結びます。愛、喜び、平安、寛容、親切、善意、誠実、 (23) 柔和、自制です。そこには、律法に反するものは何もありません。

(Galatians 5:19-21 NIV) The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; (20) idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions (21) and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.

(ガラテヤ 5:19-21 JCB) 生まれながらの悪い性質、つまり肉に従った結果がもたらすものは明らかです。すなわち、汚れた思い、好色、 (20) 偶像礼拝、心霊術、憎しみ、争い、怒り、利己心、不平、あら捜し、排他主義とそこから出て来るまちがった教え、 (21) ねたみ、人殺し、泥酔、遊興、そのような種類のものです。前にも言いましたが、もう一度言いましょう。そのような生活を続ける者は、一人として神の国を相続できません。

(Luke 5:3-5 NIV) He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out a little from shore. Then he sat down and taught the people from the boat. (4) When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.” (5) Simon answered, “Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets. 

(ルカ 5:3-5 JCB) 見ると、水ぎわの二そうの小舟のそばで、漁師たちが網を洗っています。イエスはそのうちの一そうに乗り込んで、持ち主のシモンに少しこぎ出してもらい、舟の中に座ったまま群衆に教えられました。 (4) 話が終わると、イエスはシモンに言われました。「さあ、もっと沖へこぎ出して、網をおろしてごらんなさい。」 (5)「でも先生。私たちは夜通し一生懸命働きましたが、雑魚一匹とれなかったのです。でも、せっかくのおことばですから、もう一度やってみましょう。」

1.The Power of Journaling

ジャーナルの力

(1 Timothy 4:13 NIV) Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to preaching and to teaching.

(テモテへ 4:13 JCB) 私がそちらに行くまで、教会で聖書を朗読し、その内容を教え、神のことばを伝えなさい。与えられた能力を生かす

(Luke 5:6-7 NIV) When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. (7) So they signalled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

(ルカ 5:6-7 JCB) するとどうでしょう。今度は網が破れるほどたくさんの魚がとれたのです。 (7) あまりに多くて、手がつけられません。大声で助けを求めました。仲間の舟が来ましたが、二そうとも魚でいっぱいになり、今にも沈みそうになりました。

2.The Power of Joy

喜びの力

(Luke 5:8-11 NIV) When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees and said, “Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man!” (9) For he and all his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken, (10) and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon’s partners. Then Jesus said to Simon, “Don’t be afraid; from now on you will fish for people.” (11) So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.

(ルカ 5:8-11 JCB)シモン・ペテロは、あわててイエスの前にひれ伏し、「先生。どうぞ私みたいな者から離れてください。私は罪深い人間で、とてもおそばには寄れません」と叫びました。 (9) あまりの大漁に、ペテロも仲間たちも恐ろしくなったからです。 (10) 仲間には、ゼベダイの息子のヤコブとヨハネもいました。イエスはシモンに、「こわがることはありません。あなたは今からは人間をとる漁師になるのです」と言われました。(11) 岸へ上がると、彼らはすべてを捨てて、イエスに従いました。
