2. Peter emphasized the importance of unity and harmony
by presenting four vivid pictures of the church.
我们是同一
家庭的儿女
We Are Children
in the Same Family
我们是同一
建筑的活石
We Are Stones
in the Same Building
我们是同一
圣殿的祭司
We Are Priests
in the Same Temple
我们是同一
国度的子民
We Are Citizens
of the Same Nation
彼得清楚以四个教会的形象来强调
合一与和睦的重要性。
3. A) 我们是同一家庭的儿女
We Are Children in the Same Family
(彼前 1 Pet. 1:22 - 2:3)
- 我们经历相同的重生 (23-25节)
We have experienced the same birth (vv.23-25)
- 我们表达相同的爱 (22节)
We express the same love (v.22)
- 我们享受相同的营养 (2: 1-3节)
We enjoy the same nourishment (2: 1-3)
4. B) 我们是同一建筑的活石
We Are Stones in the Same Building
(彼前 1 Pet. 2: 4 - 8)
- 若我们都按照神话语中的蓝图,我们就能共同
合作,没有分歧并为衪的荣耀建造衪的教会。
If all of us would follow God’s blueprint given in His Word,
we would be able to work together without discord and build
His church for His glory.
5. C) 我们是同一圣殿的祭司
We Are Priests in the Same Temple
(彼前1 Pet. 2: 5, 9)
- 我们一齐作祭司,事奉同一的大祭司,
在同一的属灵圣殿事奉。
We are priest together, serving the same High Priest,
ministering in the same spiritual temple.
6. D) 我们是同一 国度的子民
We Are Citizens of the Same Nation
(彼前 1 Pet. 2: 9 - 10)
- 我们是被拣选的族类,是圣洁的国度和属神的子民,
在同一的天国里。
We are a chosen generation, a holy nation and the people of God in
the same heavenly homeland.
