林约  在读经班结业礼上的见证分享

读经班使我在神的话语面前谦卑下来。王牧师常说：「如果你的观点和圣经不同，那麽你需要调整自己，而不是试图改变圣经。」当今世界的罪不断增加，许多年轻人在罪的观念或非圣经的信仰环境中长大。阅读圣经，他们不可避免地会遇到与他们认为正确的事物相矛盾的情况。当这种情况发生在我身上时，我倾向于思考：「为什么圣经会这么说？」读经班教会我重新审视自己在信仰上有偏差之处，并调整它们以符合圣经。箴言十一章二节说：「骄傲来到，羞耻也来到；谦逊人却有智慧。」我明白了：只有在阅读神的话语时保持谦卑，你才能明白圣经想要告诉你什么。

读经班还帮助我更好地向他人解释神的话语。王牧师对经文的解释是详细且直接的，这使我在回答朋友关于圣经的问题时、以及在研经中回答问题时，也努力去做同样的事情。正确地向别人解释圣经非常重要，因为它能使对方更接近耶稣基督。王牧师的课程使我对圣经的了解更加深入。

读经班使我改变了许多固有的观念——这些观念一度阻碍了我的信仰成长。阅读圣经也在塑造我的生命，使我更加接近基督。比如，我过去经常说「我发誓」来表达我的诚实，我妈妈曾告诉我不要发誓，但我没有听从。直到那一天，我读到雅各书第五章写道：「首先，我的弟兄姐妹们，你们不可发誓；不可指著天，或指着地，或指著别的什么起誓。你们的话，是就说是，不是就说不是，免得你们落在审判之下。」现在，我试着使用更坦诚和直接的语言。通过圣经，神每天都在教导和指责我，引导我走向正确的方向。

最开始是我的父母邀请我参加读经班，我也是因为感到「有义务」而参与，但后来这变成了一个愉快的习惯。最终，这门课帮助我从头到尾读完了圣经，理解了令人困惑的部分，谦卑自己，并学习耶稣要我做什么，以成为一个更有爱心的基督门徒和仆人。

A Delightful Habit

Jordan Lin

Bible Reading Class has helped me develop a humble approach to God’s Word. Pastor Wang always said, “If your opinion is different from the Bible, fix yourself, not the Bible.” Because of ever-increasing sin in the world, many young people are raised with sinful ideals or unbiblical beliefs. Reading the Bible, they will inevitably come across things that contradict what they think is right. When this happens to me, I am inclined to think, “Why does the Bible say this?” Bible Reading Class has taught me to question my own beliefs and adjust them to align with the Bible’s beliefs. Proverbs chapter 11 verse 2 says, “When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom.” I figured out that if you are humble when you read God’s Word, you will understand what he is trying to tell you.

BRC has also equipped me to better explain God’s Word to others. When Pastor Wang explained the Scriptures in detail and to the point, I began striving to do the same when questioned by friends about the Word or answering questions during Bible study. Teaching the Bible to others is very important because it helps others grow closer to Jesus Christ. Pastor Wang’s class has given me an extensive knowledge of the Bible.

Bible Reading Class has cast aside many preconceived notions that were preventing me from having a stronger faith. Reading the Bible is also sculpting my life to grow closer to Christ. I used to often swear constantly by using phrases like “I swear” to convey honesty. My mom told me not to swear, but I didn’t listen. That day, I read James chapter five where it is written, “Above all, my brothers and sisters, do not swear—not by heaven or by earth or by anything else. All you need to say is a simple “Yes” or “No.” Otherwise, you will be condemned.” Now, I try to be direct in my speech. Through His Word, God is teaching and rebuking me every day and pointing me in the right direction.

In the beginning, my parents invited me to join and I felt obligated to participate, but it became a delightful habit. In the end, this class has helped me to finish the Bible from beginning to end, grasp confusing parts, humble myself, and learn what Jesus wants me to do in order to be a more compassionate disciple and servant.
