施洗约翰为真光作见证
1 太初有道，道与神同在，道就是神。 2 这道太初与神同在。 3 万物是借着他造的；凡被造的，没有一样不是借着他造的。 4 生命在他里头，这生命就是人的光。 5 光照在黑暗里，黑暗却不接受光。 6 有一个人，是从神那里差来的，名叫约翰。 7 这人来，为要作见证，就是为光作见证，叫众人因他可以信。 8 他不是那光，乃是要为光作见证。 9 那光是真光，照亮一切生在世上的人。 10 他在世界，世界也是借着他造的，世界却不认识他。 11 他到自己的地方来，自己的人倒不接待他。 12 凡接待他的，就是信他名的人，他就赐他们权柄做神的儿女。 13 这等人不是从血气生的，不是从情欲生的，也不是从人意生的，乃是从神生的。 14 道成了肉身，住在我们中间，充充满满地有恩典有真理。我们也见过他的荣光，正是父独生子的荣光。
恩典真理是由耶稣基督来的
15 约翰为他作见证，喊着说：“这就是我曾说，‘那在我以后来的，反成了在我以前的，因他本来在我以前。’” 16 从他丰满的恩典里，我们都领受了，而且恩上加恩。 17 律法本是借着摩西传的，恩典和真理都是由耶稣基督来的。
《耶稣是谁》
耶稣基督是创造一切的神，是世界的光，是恩典和真理的神，是道成肉身的神。
第一，耶穌是神，是創造的神。
第二，耶穌是神，是生命之神。
第三，耶穌是神，是世界的光。
第四，耶穌是神，是恩典和真理的神。
第五，耶穌是神，是道成肉身的神。
为什么一位神要道成肉身呢？
一、因为哪些他所造的人不认识他。
二、因为那些不认识他的人要灭亡
三、因为他爱那些不认识他的人
四、因为没有人看见神，神只有在耶稣基督里显明出来
他是如何道成肉身呢？
因为爱人，神把自己唯一的儿子奉献出来，使他成为第一个宣教士。因为爱人，神使自己的唯一的儿子成为第一个殉道者。
结论:
如果耶稣不是你的主，
• 你如何能够面对你的人生呢？
• 有谁能成为你的帮助呢？
• 有谁能给你真正的爱呢?
呼召和使命:
每个人活在这个世界上， 都有一个来自天上的呼召。这个呼召就是你一生真正的意义。这个呼召就是生的原因，就是为之而死的理由。
每一个真正的基督徒就是因为神独生子才有生命。神让他的独生爱子成为第一个宣教士，第一个殉道士。现在，你应该明白自己的呼召了和你活在世界上的使命了吧。
思考/回应:
你顺服这个来自天上的呼召了吗？你是在为这个呼召而活吗？不要忘记是神的独生子活在我们里面。
我在哪里呢？.........我已经死了！
The Word Became Flesh
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome[a] it.
6 There was a man sent from God whose name was John. 7 He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe. 8 He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light.
9 The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. 11 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. 12 Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.
14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
15 (John testified concerning him. He cried out, saying, “This is the one I spoke about when I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.’”) 16 Out of his fullness we have all received grace in place of grace already given. 17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
Who is Jesus?
Jesus Christ is the creator of the whole universe. He is the light of the world. He is the God of grace and truth. He is the incarnate God.
Jesus is God, the God of all creation.
Jesus is God, the God of life.
Jesus is God, the light of the world.
Jesus is God, the God of grace and truth.
Jesus is God, the incarnate God.
Why does God want to become flesh?
Because the people He created do not know Him.
Because those who do not know him will perish eternally.
Because He loves those who do not know Him.
Because no one sees God, God can only be revealed in Jesus Christ.
How did he become flesh?
Because of his love, God dedicated his only son and made him the first missionary. Because of his love, God made his only son the first martyr.
in conclusion:
If Jesus is not your Lord,
How can you face your life?
Who can be your help?
Who can give you true love?
Calling and Mission:
Everyone living in this world has a calling from heaven. This call is the true meaning of your life. This call is the reason for life and the reason for dying for it.
Every true Christian has life because of the only begotten Son of God. God made his only beloved son the first missionary and the first martyr. Now, you should understand your calling and your mission to live in the world.
Thoughts and response:
Have you submitted to this call from heaven? Are you living for this calling? Don’t forget that God’s only begotten Son lives in us.
Then where am I? ......... I am already dead!
