Fountain of Life

I dedicate one noon of the week to fast and pray for myself and other people. One day while I kept my promise to fast and pray with a healthy fear to God, I was led by the Holy Spirit while reading the Bible and sensed several polluted, ignorant sins in my heart. I confessed to God and amazingly felt more craving for His pure spiritual milk (1 Peter 2:2) instead of food, even though my stomach growled.

A while later, I found myself being inspired by C.H. Spurgeon’s poem in a fortuitous reading. As a result, my gratitude to God’s cleaning water gushed out to the following praise:

My soul as a fountain, connected with heavenly head water.

No draining, but a spring of the Lord, sustained by Grace, purified by trials, abided by Love, guarded by divine power.

My soul thus favored is flowing with His sweet and living water to the spiritually thirsty peoples and unto the eternal glory of God’s kingdom.

The Bible says: “The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life. That one may avoid the snares of death”. (Proverbs 14:27).

Let us give the Lord our reverence with love. Then, the fountain of life will overflow from within, to nourish us and others.

How do you nourish your spiritual self? What spiritual practices deepen your walk with Christ?

Could You Be Saved But Not a Free Christian?

Are you the person who goes on the bus with a seat and still carries your heavy, bulky backpack on your back, even when the driver kindly reminds you to put it down because it will be a long way to the next stop?

This analogy completely reflects my spiritual life. I was saved as a God’s child (meaning I was on the bus), but I was not free (meaning I still carried my backpack). Even worse, I was miserable because I could not fulfill most of the commandments in the Bible with a genuine heart.

I did want to be a good Christian but I found that I often heard voices like “you just fake to be loving because you still have jealousy in your heart,” or, “it’s impossible for you to be totally selfless because the Chinese saying says, ‘the heaven and earth would be destroyed if a human was not selfish’ ”.

Besides believing the condemning voices, I suffered with depression, self-rejection, low self-esteem, anxiety, control, an angry temper, suicidal temptation, etc. At that time, I did not fully understand the solid Bible truth for transforming my mind. I practiced and knew little about how fortune-telling and astrology are connected with evil and detested by God (refer to 2 Chronicles 33:6). And the human-centered world view plus my own unconfessed sins from my lineage and my heart still haunted me.

When I was in early elementary school, I had never heard about baptism in Christianity. But I sometimes immersed myself in the bathtub that my mom stored water in for cleaning. I wished I could wash away my wickedness after coming out of the water. There’s a temple for worshipping Guan-Gong (ancient Chinese general) near my house. I often went there to play in the big front yard and also accompanied adults to go inside to worship many different idols. The strong smoke of incense and the pictures about hell in the books were the vivid memory about the temple. In my young mind, I remember I often asked myself that if I only worship this god, would I offend the other gods?

When I was 18, in the college, I heard about God’s creation for the first time from the pastor who came to the campus to preach the gospel. I immediately accepted the idea that humans are God’s creation because it solved my long-time puzzle about the theory of evolutionary which I was taught in high school biology class. After a few months, I was urged by a local house church to be baptized so that I can be saved from the world. Afterwards, I walked my Christian life in the dim light for almost 20 years until I got an opportunity to translate an English speech to Chinese.

This speech was about how to tell the difference between mental illness and demonization. The speaker was a pastor’s wife and a nurse. I read through her article and asked her if she could pray for me because my situation fitted the demonization as what she described from her experiences in the deliverance ministry. During the consoling time, she gave me a list helping me to identify the sins I committed in the past. It seemed that the light of Holy Spirit shone through my heart and I was reminded of a long list of sins from myself, my family and the sins against me from the religious cult I joined ignorantly as a child, from the curses someone spoke to me, from the sexual harassment by other adults and from the possible sins in my lineage (ancestors).

Nothing dramatic happened during the prayer time. The pastor’s wife told me that I may stop being afraid of something after the deliverance prayer. Then I noticed I did not fear the bitter coldness of the winter in Minnesota for the first time after I moved here for nine years. My spiritual journey was like the blind man in Bethsaida who was brought to Jesus. Jesus spit on the man’s eyes and put his hands on him. The man saw people but they looked like trees walking around. Once more Jesus put his hands on the man’s eyes, then his eyes were opened, his sight was restored and he saw everything clearly (refer to Mark 8:22-24). After the deliverance prayer, my eyes are bright and I walk in the full light of God since then.

My story may not be the situation for some Christians who were healed by Jesus and got their eye sight right away like the blind man, Bartimaeus (refer to Mark 10:46-52). But one thing I am sure–God intends His children to be free and joyful in the faith, hope and love, because that’s what Jesus came to do:

“This is why the Son of God was revealed, to destroyed works of the devil” (1 John 3:8).

When I look back and wonder how I got here, I know that the long nights in the spiritual life were meant for me to finally surrender myself to God and ask Him to be my Lord, not just Savior in my life so that I can be filled with His Holy Spirit and gain the power with His authority to resist the devil. During the gloomy times, I call upon Him in the day of trouble and He delivers me and I shall glorify Him (refer to Psalms 50:15). I went through the bitterness of being a saved but not free Christian. Then God came through for me and I can savor the full sweetness of living in Jesus.

After I was set free in Jesus’ name, I noticed the gradual changes in my spiritual life:

I am hungry for the Bible’s truth and love to talk to God in prayer. (Psalms 42:1)

I can love God with all my heart after I pray to Him for giving me love. (Luke 10:27)

I make peace with myself and others. (Galatians 5:22)

I learn to discern with the help of Holy Spirit and discard the fault from the cultural/social influence and the lies coming into my thought. I am transformed by renewing my mind by practicing the truth. (Romans 12:2)

I am alert to take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. If what I hear does not align with the truth, I resist it right away. (2 Corinthians 10:5)

I learn to fight with Scripture in the spiritual warfare. (Ephesians 6:12)

I have the spirit of power, love and self-control to obey God’s commandments and live a holy life. (2 Timothy 1:7)

Corrie Ten Boom, the Dutch missionary and a survivor of a Nazi concentration camp said:

“Jesus was baptized in the Holy Spirit. Therefore, the fullness of the Holy Spirit is the birthright of every child of God. But we must make room for Him, even in the hidden corners deep in our hearts. Then we can count on Him who will accomplish His work through us”.

Every child of God ought to be a free and victorious Christian.

If Jesus sets you free, you are free indeed (refer to John 8:36) and you have the power to overcome sins and the freedom not to sin again.

Is God Silent During Suffering?

Recently my Japanese friend, a missionary in Japan, asked for prayer about her troubled feeling aroused by the movie, Silence, shot in Taiwan by Hollywood director, Martin Scorsese. According to Time Magazine, “Silence is a somber epic about Jesuit priests struggling to keep their faith in violently anti-Christian 17th century Japan”. (Note1)

My friend also posted an article written by a Japanese pastor, Marre Ishii. He was upset after watching a screening of this film. I learned from this article that the movie was adapted from the novel, by the same name, about Japanese history. According to Mr Ishii, the book author, Shusako Endo, ” … wrestled with Catholic faith but continued to be a Catholic out of respect for his mother”.

After reading through Ishii’s article (Note 2), I cannot help but point out three observations and hope to encourage my Christian fellows to discern Satan’s deception.

  • “Why was God silent in the midst of this tragedy in history?”Mr Ishii wrote that this is an universal question asked by all religions and races. He mentioned tragedies like the Holocaust, African slavery and the 9-11 terrorist attack. Nevertheless, I feel sad to say that not many people in the world know much about another tragedy: the Nanjing (Nanking) Massacre. This was an episode of mass murder and rape committed by Japanese troops against the residents of Nanjing in 1937.According to BBC Magazine, reported by Mariko Oi in 2013 (Note 3), the former history teacher and scholar, Tamaki Matsuoka, accuses the Japanese government of a deliberate silence about atrocities in the massacre. I do not mean to condemn the Japanese people. On the contrary, it’s urgent to recognize that the spiritual darkness over Japanese society is so heavy there has been an increase in suicide rates and many other emotional issues.“Japan has no history of Christianity so here suicide is not a sin,” says Wataru Nishida, a psychologist at Tokyo’s Temple University (Note 4). Therefore, I pray for my missionary friend whom God sent to “ … open their (Japanese people’s) eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in Jesus” (Acts 26:18).
  • Mr Ishii wrote that from his experience in Japan, and as a pastor, that this movie will portray a God of great love and compassion as indifferent to the suffering of his saints. Faith in Jesus and love for all saints springs from the hope that is heard from the word of truth (refer to Colossians 1:5). As Christians, we shall spread the gospel in a God-loving motivation, rather than the fear of not completing our obligation.When we are asked, “How is a loving God indifferent to the suffering of His saints?” we don’t need to fear people and sugarcoat the gospel of sins and forgiveness. Instead, we rely on the Holy Spirit to intelligently and graciously encourage people to find out what a faithful saint’s reaction would be during the suffering from the testimonies of those who endure hardship to the end in the whole wide world. This is what I observed from African and Chinese persecuted Christians who still spread God’s love and love their enemies.
  • Mr Ishii said he was aghast when he heard that an American pastor said hell is where a non-believer goes after death. Mr Ishii said, “This type of insensitivity has turned many Japanese people into adversaries of God.” I agree with Mr Ishii that only God truly knows if a person has a genuine faith to go to heaven. In Asia, many people believe in various religions and think that they don’t need Jesus in order to be saved because they worship gods and try to do good. On one hand, telling the truth could be seen as insensitive because it hurts people’s pride. On the other hand, it could also be sensitive to the real danger of one’s spiritual death.Pastor John Piper wrote in his book, Jesus, The Only Way To God: “The world will tell you that you are arrogant, not loving, if you spread the message of Jesus’s saving work as the only way to God. But God calls it love … Oh, how we need to let the Bible define what love does! … Apart from the work of the Holy Spirit, who works through the word of the gospel of Christ (1 Peter 1:23-25), there is no faith and no new birth and no salvation. This is why repentance and forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in His name to all nations’ (Luke 24:47).” (Note 5)

I painfully remember that I did not tell my uncle, sick with cancer, about where he would go after death without believing in Jesus because I worried that he might feel scared. Shortly, he was sent home from the hospital without the hope of living. While he was still alive, his family dressed him with a funeral shroud to keep his muscles from getting too stiff to wear it after he died.

I was in grief to know that tears rolled down from his eyes while lying on the bed waiting for the unknown destiny. Sadly, I was not around and could not tell him to receive Jesus. Even today, I hope in the bottom of my heart that my uncle did listen to the gospel tape I left him and received Jesus as his Savior in his mind. Since then, I would rather risk being shamed or rejected by people than fail to tell them the gospel in love.

I believe God chose His anointed saints and will bring them back to one holy nation (Refer to 1 Peter 2:9). Therefore, my heavenly identity as a citizen of God’s kingdom is higher than my earthly identity as a citizen of the USA and Taiwan with Japanese blood.

God sent Ezekiel to open his mouth and say to people, “This is what the Sovereign LORD says, ‘Whoever will listen let him listen, and whoever will refuse let him refuse; for they are a rebellious house.’ “(Ezekiel 3:27)

It’s only God who can soften every sinner’s heart to listen. Meanwhile, we shall be like Ezekiel to “listen carefully and take to heart all the words God speaks to us,” (Ezekiel 3:10) as we share His truth in love. For only the truth shall set each of us free from the trap of sins and stronghold of evil darkness. (John 8:32)

活著就是基督

夫妻相愛熟稔，彼此學習，就愈看愈有夫妻臉。當我從聖經中愈多認識主耶穌基督神的性情，我的心思意念就更轉化像主。回想我大一信主以來，頭二十年好像在曠野，靠著自己的意志力，常走在乾旱疲乏無水之地；之後經歷神在沙漠中開江河，帶我進入真理的美地，賜我身心靈飽足，使我滿心歸榮耀給神。近五年來，主耶穌是我的生活教練，以愛與鼓勵訓練我，使我攻克己身，叫身服我，並靠主在屬靈爭戰中得勝。

「改變為基督」是每個愛主的人必經的成聖過程。當腓力被主耶穌呼召後，找著拿但業告訴他，耶穌就是摩西律法與眾先知說的那一位。拿但業說拿撒勒能出什麼好人時，腓力沒有跟他爭辯，只說了一句：「你來看」（參考約翰福音一章43~46節）。在你心中，耶穌是怎樣的一個人呢？

當耶穌問門徒「你們說我是誰？」，彼得回答說：「你是基督，是永生神的兒子」（馬太福音十六章16節）。耶穌對他說：「你是有福的，因為這是天父讓你明白的」。只有天父神賜下啟示，並藉著聖靈的智慧，我們才能聽懂屬天奧秘。耶穌降生為人，也藉聖靈明白天父的心意。當耶穌受洗時，有聖靈降在祂身上，天父對祂說：「你是我的愛子，我喜悅你」（參考馬可福音一章9~11節）。今天，天父也對每個信祂的人說同樣的話。

當耶穌告訴門徒有關祂受死的事，彼得勸祂說：「主啊，萬不可如此，這事必不臨到你」。耶穌轉臉對彼得說：「撒旦，退我後邊去」，「你是絆我腳的，因為你不體貼神的心意，只體貼人的心意」（參考馬太福音十六章13~23節）。彼得因看重自己的情感，就落入撒旦迷惑的陷阱。此時彼得像一隻羊，被撒旦這頭獅子咬在嘴裡，因此耶穌先不對彼得說教，而是驅逐撒旦，使彼得的心脫離惡者的網羅。接著耶穌才警戒彼得：若以人的價值觀為中心，就無法以神為中心。

耶穌受洗後，聖靈催祂到曠野去受撒旦試探（參考馬可福音一章12~13節）。馬太福音四章1~10節描述：耶穌遭遇的第一個試探，是撒旦要祂把石頭變成食物。但耶穌捨棄了自己可以行神蹟的能力，更看重神屬靈話語的供應。我學到凡我所有的，都是神恩典的賜予；不要因自以為有才華、恩賜，或由於虧欠神恩典的罪惡感，就心急覺得應該為神做點什麼，那其實是奪取神的榮耀，或靠行為交換救恩，而不是因信帶出的行為。

耶穌的第二個試探，是撒旦要祂涉險從殿頂跳下，但耶穌全心相信天父的愛，所以不去揣測天父是否會保護祂。耶穌的第三個試探，是敬拜撒旦得世界榮華。耶穌斥責撒旦離開，宣告祂只單單敬拜父神。撒旦常用世界的好處吸引我們，叫我們羨慕別人有的。我學到要抵擋屬世氾濫的物慾、私慾，最有效的方法不是靠意志力拒絕，而是求神的愛更多來吸引我。因為在試探中，神必開一條出路，叫我能忍受（哥林多前書十章13節），並給我「剛強、仁愛、謹守的靈」（提摩太後書一章7節），使我循著真理跑到神的堅固臺（參考箴言十八章10節）。漸漸地，同樣的試探便不再出現。

我本以為耶穌是神，生來沒有犯罪，所以能勝過試探。但主耶穌叫我看見，當我們認罪悔改後，「東離西有多遠，祂叫我們的過犯離我們也有多遠」（詩篇103篇12節），所以我們也能像祂一樣被試探卻不犯罪，因為「凡從神生的，就不犯罪，因神的道存在他心裡」（約翰一書三章9節）。神容許試探臨到我們，使我們學習靠聖靈與真理，強健屬靈抵抗力，以信心抵擋惡者，以神的話擊敗仇敵（參考以弗所書六章10~20節）。

耶穌被捕之前身心靈受盡煎熬，祂禱告：「天父，倘若可行，求你叫這杯離開我；然而，不要照我的意思，只要照你的意思」。第二次祂又禱告：「我父啊，這杯若不能離開我，必要我喝，就願你的旨意成全」，第三次也是一樣（參考馬太福音二十六章36~43節）。我學到主耶穌坦白向天父說出自己的痛苦軟弱，但仍謙卑如僕人順從天父，並以父神的旨意為最優先。

主耶穌對撒瑪利亞婦人說：「你若知道是誰在對你說話，你必早求祂，祂也必早給你活水」（參考約翰福音四章10節）。我常按照主耶穌的心意禱告，相信必得著一切我所求的（參考約翰一書五章14-15節）。我用保羅為腓立比教會的禱告對神說：「主啊，我想要感受到你的愛，也想要愛你，使我更多認識你，在屬靈的事上能辨別是非，察驗何事是主看為好的，所以我能成為誠實無過的人，直等到主再來的日子。並結出聖靈的果子，把榮耀歸給神」（參考腓立比書一章9~10節）。

研究生物化學的朋友告訴我，鹽能抑制細菌生長；聖經說信主的人是鹽，我相信有得勝的基督徒在的地方，就能抑制罪惡對人的不良影響。但只有神能赦罪與除罪。一個得勝基督徒的生活，不管是在教會或世界裡，都是表裡一致，配得神的名，因此我禱告：「神啊，您是率領我在基督裡得勝的，請您藉著我，不論在哪裡，都能顯出因認識神而有的香氣」（哥林多後書二章14節）。

因主耶穌的信實，祂定意幫助我們成聖（腓立比書一章6節），只要我們跟隨祂，就能成熟結出聖靈的果子。主耶穌因愛我們，祂用笑臉幫助我們，而不是板著臉定我們的罪（參考約翰福音十二章47節），所以我們也不用論斷自己和別人。當我們獻上自己的身體為祭，就是捨棄自我中心，不僅要改變像基督，還能跟保羅一樣說：「我活著就是基督」，因為主耶穌做的，信祂的人也要做（約翰福音十四章12節）。

問題一：「信心沒有行為是死的」（雅各書二章26節），這裡說的行為可以是外在的服事，可不可以是內在的改變或等候神呢？

問題二：你禱告時會說「我應該為主做…」，還是「我想要為主做…」？哪一個是自以為義，哪一個是因愛神而產生的結果？

問題三：你認為今天你能努力做事或讀書，是靠自己的努力，還是神的恩典？若你今天毫無力量只能被人服事，你相信神仍看你為祂寶貴的孩子嗎？

凡事感謝，消除刻板印象

人類習慣將不同的事物歸類，方便記憶。在美國這個民族大熔爐裡，很容易就產生對不同種族的刻板印象。像是覺得亞洲人都比較認真，黑人很會唱歌，白人比較文明有禮貌等等。但是我們的神是不偏心的（彼得前書1:17），所以我覺得在心中把別人歸類不是神的作為。因為神的眼光看我們為祂精心創造的個體，不侷限在人的種族、觀念、能力等外在的形象（約翰福音8:15）。人心中存有刻板印象時，很可能會被挑動去憎恨某族類，像希特勒就說服許多人鄙視猶太人，造成六百萬猶太人死於大屠殺的歷史悲劇。

在網路上看過一個幽默短片。有個亞洲臉孔的女性在公園慢跑時，遇到一個白種男人。男人問她從哪裡來？女人回答說美國某一城市。但那似乎不是男人預期的答案，所以他又追問她的父母或祖先是哪裡來的？女人說了以後，男人終於滿意地說：我就知道，你看起來就應該是日本或韓國後代之類的。接著男人開始滔滔不絕地說他對亞洲國家的認識。但這些都不是這個生長在美國的女人的經驗。後來女人以其人之道還治其人之身，問男人從哪裡來，祖先從哪裡來，然後說了一堆男人一點也不熟悉的歐洲某國的文化現象，使男人一頭霧水。

在美國我也曾經很白目的追問有亞洲臉孔的人從哪裡來，因為若來自我知道的國家，很快就有共同話題可聊，能解除疏離感。但最近就遇到一個被美國白人領養的韓國人，對韓國文化不甚瞭解，也沒想過認祖歸宗，現在最能認同的團體就是跟她一樣被領養的亞洲人與領養亞洲人的美國家庭。

我前陣子有個機會要上台短講，但被一個印度人搶去機會，因此我把印度人看成喜好競爭的族類。最近看了英國記者寫有關中國人的書，光怪陸離的社會現象，叫人驚奇。但是仔細想想，我若處在那個社會裡，我也極可能有相同的反應與態度。

心理學家說，人的腦子習慣記住負面的經驗，我想這是人要保護自己的天性。例如你曾被火燙傷，你從此會對發熱的東西小心翼翼，可能還有「一朝被蛇咬，十年怕草繩」的陰影。但神的話說：「凡事感謝」（帖撒羅尼迦前書5:18），我想這句話可以逆轉（unwire）人的天性：能在負面經驗裡，看見神潛藏的祝福；讓我們學會小心防範，但又對可能發生的事情不會感到焦慮。

在台灣膚色不同的人不多，但可能有政治色彩，也容易把他人歸類為某族群。我想「凡事感謝」也能用來消除這樣的刻板印象：當我們看見不同的族群、或是對同一族類有不同意見、想法的個人，我們可以為他們感謝神，因為他們也是帶有神的形象而被造的尊貴個體。若我能對他們的價值觀與文化多有瞭解，明白他們行為背景，就能有同理心而不會驟下批評與論斷。與他們交流時，也本著神的愛去挖掘欣賞他們的獨特之處。若看到他人有符合神屬性的品格，也能不吝嗇地加以肯定，特別是我們身旁的配偶、孩子、朋友、同事、鄰居等人，更是需要我們體貼的鼓勵。

下次我再遇到印度人，我要禱告求神給我祂的眼光，考驗自己的觀察力，找出那人值得欣賞的特點，而不要用不公平的散漫眼光，將我心中的負面印象套在他的身上。

癌症的祝福

您好，

我從台灣來。我從大學一年級認識上帝到現在，已經有20多年了，知道您得到癌症，我為您禱告能看完這封信，並開始對這位愛你的上帝感興趣。

如果說得到癌症是一種從上帝來的祝福，您願意相信嗎？這個世界有許多人一生富貴健康，可是終究要面臨死亡，而且不能帶走任何這個世界上的東西。有人一輩子沒有病痛煩惱，以為這是幸福，卻讓他們失去思考人生價值與意義的機會，更不用說得到永恆的生命了。

您或許會說，沒有得過癌症的人不懂。但是我曾經有心靈上的癌症，甚至比生病更苦。聖經說：「人有疾病，心能忍耐。心靈憂傷，誰能承擔呢？」（箴言18：14）。您真正害怕的不只是化療的苦，而是面臨不確定能否得醫治的惶恐。那是心靈的問題。我在年輕不信主時，覺得人生不用活太久，因為多活著多受苦，因為這樣的心態，我的身體飽受過敏之苦數十年。後來信主了才知道，那樣的心態源自死亡的靈。人有靈、魂、體三部分，互相影響。當代心理學已經證實積極的心理可以影響身體健康，聖經也說：「喜樂的心，乃是良藥」。然而信主的人更有活過來的靈，可以影響心理，進而影響生理。我的過敏在我向主禱告後好幾年完全得醫治。

您說相信有神，但不相信耶穌是神。我想等您讀過聖經一遍後，您真的認識這位歷史上真實存在過，真實死去過，也真的復活了，有四十天之久向祂的門徒顯現的這位耶穌，應驗了在舊約聖經多處預言祂要誕生、受死與復活的事。這不是巧合，因為三百多個的預言完全被應驗的機率微乎其微。

您要相信一個人，得先認識他。若您不曾聽過耶穌要對您說的話，當然是不願意相信的。您可以先做個禱告：神啊，幫助我認識您並相信您，並上網把聖經讀過一遍。

您會發現這位耶穌，實在是行神蹟、奇妙的神。

這位神是創造天地、宇宙與人類、萬物的神，祂是慈愛的神，祂不會強迫您來信他，但祂熱切希望您真心愛上祂。因此只要您願意有認識祂的心，接下來的事祂必為您成就。

整個基督教信仰核心是：我們都有罪，其結果是死亡。但是神因愛我們，希望我們能看見祂，所以祂要成為人的樣子，與我們交談，否則我們不可能認識祂，就想螞蟻不能瞭解人類一樣。這位耶穌就是神向我們啟示祂自己的那一位，而且祂為我們的罪受死，使我們無罪，並且祂復活，使我們帶著盼望等候祂要再來審判活人與死人：信祂的人將承受永生，不信的人只能面臨永遠的死亡。

最後我要分享聖經：「因為神從起初揀選了你們，叫你們因信真道，又被聖靈感動，成為聖潔，能以得救」（帖撒羅尼迦後書2：13）。我們能做的就是選擇相信聖經的真理，其他的是神才能做的事。

我禱告您的癌症能得醫治，但我更希望您因認識真神，而有活過來的靈，得以與這位掌管宇宙和您的人生的神心靈相通。
