5. Gospel Harvesting Meeting 福音收割聚会

1) Q. In the gospel meeting, what should be the proper attitude of those who are attending?
A. In the gospel meeting everyone should participate actively in the work; no one should sit passively to listen to the message with little concern for the salvation of others.
问:在福音聚会里,与会者正确的态度应该是什么呢?
答:在福音聚会里,每个人都应该积极参与;不该有人消极的坐在那里听信息而对别人的得救漠不关心。


2) Q. I am already saved and do not need to hear the gospel again. Why should I attend gospel meetings?
A. A saved person should never feel tired of hearing the gospel. As long as you are sitting in the meeting, you are helping and strengthening the hand of the preaching one.
问:我已经得救,不需要再听福音了。为什么我还需参加福音呢?
答:一个已得救的人,应当感觉听不厌福音。你只要坐在聚会里,无形中就是帮助了讲道的人,刚强了讲道者的手。


3) Q. The gospel meetings are not always new and exciting to me. Does this mean the gospel is not glorious?
A. Please remember that even though there is not an exciting and new gospel for one to listen to in the meeting, the gospel that is preached every time is a glorious gospel.
问:对我来说,福音聚会不总是新奇的、好的,这是不是就意味着福音不是荣耀的吗?
答:请你们记得,虽然传福音的聚会中,没有好的、新奇的福音可听;但是,每次所传的同样的福音,都是荣耀的福音。


4) Q. I know many truths and wonder why I don’t hear exciting new truths in the gospel meeting?
A. In the gospel meetings, we do not expect to hear exciting, new truths. You may be familiar and well acquainted with many truths, but your presence helps and strengthens your brother.
问:我知道许多道理,我很想知道为何在福音聚会中我听不到好的、新奇的道理?
答:在传福音聚会中,我们不当盼望有好的、新奇的道理听。许多道理,你已是顶熟,听得顶多的了,但是,你若出席,就是帮助你的弟兄, 坚固你的弟兄。


5) Q. I have heard gospel messages many times and I feel like they are getting old. Is this how I should feel?
A. If it is God’s gospel, we should feel that it is new even after hearing it the hundredth time. It is precious every time we mention God and His salvation! We should forever praise the gospel story.
问:我听过许多次福音信息,我感觉它们老旧了,这是我该有的感觉吗?
答:我觉得如果是神的福音,就是听一百遍,每次都当觉得是新的。每次提到神救我们的故事,是何等的宝贵呢!我们该永远赞美那些福音的故事。


6) Q. Once I am in a gospel meeting, is it ok if I sit quietly while the gospel is being shared?
A. When you come to the meeting, it will not hurt if you say “amen” once in a while to show your sympathy. If you do this, you are rendering the speaker some spiritual help.
问:一旦我在福音聚会中,当别人分享福音时,我安静的坐在那里对吗?
答:当你来聚会时,你不妨有时说一声“阿们”,以表示同情。你若这样,就是给讲话者一个属灵的帮助。


7) Q. In addition to saying “amen” once in a while, what else can I do to help the speaker?
A. The kind of attitude you have while sitting in the meeting directly affects the one who is speaking.
问:除了有时说“阿们”,我还能作什么来帮助讲话者吗?
答:你坐着抱何种态度,就能叫上面讲的人受何种影响。


8) Q. When something from the preaching one touches me, is it ok to say “amen?”
A. When some word from the preaching one touches you, it is most appropriate to say an “amen. It is not just human beings who are saying “amen” within the house; the angels are saying “amen” also.
问:当讲的人的一些东西摸着我时,说一声“阿们”对吗?
答:当讲的人的话,摸着你的时候,你说一声“阿们”,是顶合式的。因为这不只是人在房子里说“阿们”,天使也在那里说“阿们”。


9) Q. It seems that the gospel speaker does not need to stand alone. Was this practiced in the early church?
A. Acts 2 not only shows Peter standing to preach to the crowd; it also shows the eleven apostles standing with him.
问:好像传福音者不是独自一人站在那里,这是早期召会的实行吗?
答:行传二章不只是彼得一人站起来对众人讲,其他十一个使徒都站起来了。


10) Q. I often feel that my personal life is not that great. Does this affect my meeting life?
A. In the gospel meeting, it is not a question of whether one lives a good personal life but whether his meeting life is proper. If our meeting life is proper, our personal life will also be proper.
问:我总是感觉我的个人生活不好,这会影响我的聚会生活吗?
答:所以传福音的聚会,不是问个人的生活好不好,乃是要顾到聚会的生活好不好。若是我们聚会的生活好,我们个人的生活也一定好。
