Please contact Ping-Ching if you have thoughts and ideas.

5.  Please pray for brothers and sisters who are students. As the winter vacation came to an end and new semester begins, please pray that God will help them develop self discipline and focus on their school work, fellowship duties, internships, interpersonal relationships, as well as their spiritual growth, and give them guidance and blessings in everything they do.

6.   A couple of sisters have been sick lately. Please pray for their recovery and physical health. It has been cold and snowing with sleet and snow accumulation recently. Please be careful when driving and drive slowly.

In John 14:27, it says: “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. In Luke 12:49~51, it also says: “I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! But I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is completed! Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division…”

1.   Are these verses contradictory? How do you explain it?

2.   In John 14:27, what does “peace” mean?

1)     In Luke 12:49, Jesus said: “I have come to bring fire on the earth.” What is “fire” referring to?

2)     In Luke 12:50, Jesus said: “I have baptism to undergo.” What does it mean?

3)     In Luke 12:51, what is “division” referring to?

3.   Use Psalms 1:1~3 as an example.

1)       Meditate and interpret these verses.

1.      主耶穌曾說：“你們要找我，卻找不著”。（約翰福音7:34) 可是，這位不能違背自己的主卻又說：“尋找，

就尋見”。（馬太福音7:7）這豈不是很矛盾嗎？你如何來解釋？

2.      當神吩咐亞當說：“分別善惡樹上的果子，你不可吃 ，因為你吃的日子必定死”。（創世紀2:17）請問：當時亞當他能分辨善惡嗎？

3.      請以詩篇1:1~3為例：

1)     先默想，解釋這段經文。

For those who are still out on vacation, please pray for their safety during traveling, and that they may be God’s testimonies when they spend time with their families and friends.

1.  Jesus said: “You will look for me, but you will not find me.” (John 7:34) However, our God, who never contradicts Himself, also said: “Seek and you will find.” Isn’t it contradictory? How do you explain it?

2.  When God told Adam: “You must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die.” Did Adam know the difference between good and evil at that time?

3.  Use Psalms 1:1~3 as an example.

1)     Meditate and interpret these verses.

2)     Apply what you have learned from these verses into your prayers.

Homework

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!

(2 Corinthians 5:17)

Did you ask God for a “Christmas gift” last week? I hope you will continue to pray for it, and share this experience with everyone next year.

Looking back at the past year, have you ever felt frustrated that you can’t fit a brief moment of prayer and quiet time into your day, and your Bible study is always falling behind? It’s the end of 2010 and also the right time to make plans for Bible study, and make it a habit to pray and have quiet time with God on daily basis in the new year. TaiwanBible.com (http://www.taiwanbible.com/index.jsp?page=startpage/event04.jsp) offers several different personalized Bible study plans of one year, two years, in-depth reading, and speed reading. It is a great tool to help you develop an effective and routine Bible study schedule, and the most important thing of all, it is FREE! I hope you will take advantage of this great online resource, and be able to make a major breakthrough in your spiritual growth in 2011!

Homework

Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. (Jeremiah 29:12)

Our homework of the week is to ask for a “Christmas gift” from God. Do you often shy away from asking God to give you what you want? Have you ever felt that your life is lacking something and wish God would make it complete? On this very special season of Christmas, bring your wish or request to God, be it something specific or a spiritual gift. We hope that in the upcoming year, you will be able to communicate with God through prayers and become closer to Him. Let Him fulfill your wish, and experience God’s blessings for you!
