DEEP AND PROFOUND THOUGHTS SHARED II

“Do you suppose that I came to give peace on earth? I tell you, not at all, but rather division. For from now on five in one house will be divided: three against two, and two against three. Father will be divided against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.”

Luke 12:51-53

1. Peace

a. The Lord Jesus is the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6).
b. He taught His disciples to be peacemakers (Matthew 5:9).

2. What did He mean when He now speaks of “division”?

a. As far as possible we should pursue peace (Romans 12:18).
b. But there are situations when peace is not possible.

3. Division in the Family

a. Father against son.
b. Son against father.
c. Mother against daughter.
d. Daughter against mother.

4. What is the cause of this problem of division?

a. The believer is NOT guilty of causing the division over trivial matters.
b. It may occur when:
i. There is objection to faith in the Lord Jesus.
ii. When there is opposition to believing in the Lord Jesus.
c. The believer
i. He decides to believe in the Lord Jesus.
ii. He determines to hold fast to his faith.
iii. He will not yield to objection or opposition to his faith in the Lord.

This is where division may take place in the family.

分享很深奥的思想II

“你们以为我来是叫地上太平吗?我告诉你们:不是,乃是叫人纷争。从今以后,一家五个人将要纷争:三个人和两个人相争,两个人和三个人相争; 父亲和儿子相争,儿子和父亲相争;母亲和女儿相争,女儿和母亲相争;婆婆和媳妇相争,媳妇和婆婆相争。””

《路加福音 12:51-53》

1. 太平

a. 主耶稣是和平的君《以赛亚书 9:6》

b. 祂教导门徒要使人和睦共处《马太福音 5:9》

2. 祂现在说的“纷争”指的是什么?

a. 我们应该尽所能追求与众人和睦《罗马书 12:18》

b. 但有些情况不容许和平

3. 在家中的纷争

a. 父亲和儿子相争

b. 儿子和父亲相争

c. 母亲和女儿相争

d. 女儿和母亲相争

4. 造成这种纷争的原因是什么?

a. 信徒不会因小事而起纷争

b. 这可能发生在:

i. 有人反对对主耶稣的信心

ii. 有人反对相信主耶稣

c. 信徒

i. 他决定相信主耶稣

ii. 他坚决守住自己的信仰

iii. 他不会屈服于别人对他在主里的信心的反对

这就会造成家中的纷争。
