亲爱的朋友，你好。
2. Thank you for tuning in today.
很感谢你的收听。
3. If you are listening for the first time,
如果你是第一次收听这个节目，
4. we are in the middle of a three-part series on the marks of discipleship.
我们正在播出“门徒的三个记号”这一系列。
5. We saw the first mark of discipleship is loyalty to Jesus.
上次我们讲到，门徒第一个记号就是，对主忠心。
6. Today, we are going to see the second mark of discipleship, which is loving like Jesus.
今天，我们要讲门徒的第二个记号就是，要像耶稣那样去爱。
7. In the next message, we will see the third mark of discipleship, which is living for Jesus;
下一次我们要讲门徒的第三个记号，也就是要像耶稣那样生活；
8. so, what does it mean, “loving like Jesus?”
什么是“像耶稣那样去爱”呢？
9. Some of you probably are asking by now, “Can anyone really love like Jesus?”
也许你会问：“真的有人能够像耶稣那样去爱呢？”
10. The answer is “yes,”
答案是肯定的。
11. but can it be done perfectly?
但是能不能像祂爱得那么完全呢？
12. The answer is “no.”
当然不能。
13. Can it be done easily?
像耶稣那样去爱容易做到吗？
14. The answer is also “no.”
一点儿也不容易。
15. The major part of the problem is that many people have a wrong notion about Christian love.
问题在于，很多人对基督的爱有一种误解。
16. Many people mistakenly conclude that, to love like Jesus, means that you could never condemn sin.
他们以为，像耶稣那样去爱就不应该谴责罪恶。
17. Some people think loving like Jesus means that we would not make a distinction between right and wrong.
也有人认为，像耶稣那样去爱，就不应该黑白太分明。
18. On the contrary,
事实恰恰相反，
19. the highest expression of love is obedience to the Word of God.
最能表达爱的方式就是顺从神的话。
20. Jesus said, “If you love Me, you will obey Me.”
耶稣说：“人若爱我，就必遵守我的道。”
21. Listen to John 13:35.
请听约翰福音13章35节，
22. “By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another.”
“你们若有彼此相爱的心，众人因此就认出你们是我的门徒了。”
23. What does this mean, “…if you love one another?”
“彼此相爱”是什么意思呢？
24. Where is the focus here?
这句话的重点在哪里呢？
25. The focus is not on the one who wants to be loved.
这话的重点不在于被爱的那一位。
26. Jesus’ focus is that you should do the loving, not demand to be loved.
耶稣的意思乃是要我们主动去爱别人，而不是要求别人爱我们。
27. You may be asking, “Does this mean that I should do all the loving and not expect to be loved back?”
也许你会问：“你的意思是说，我只有爱别人的份儿，而不能期望得到别人的爱喽？”
28. The truth is this, my listening friend.
亲爱的朋友，事实上，
29. If you want to receive love, you’ve got to begin by giving love.
如果你想要得到别人的爱，你就要先付出爱。
30. Now, this is a very important distinction.
这一点非常重要。
31. In some cultures, the whole concept of love has turned into sentimentality.
在某些文化里，爱就是感情用事。
32. People use love as an excuse to get others to do what they selfishly want.
人们把爱当成借口，来支使别人为满足自己的私欲而行。
33. The whole focus of love for some of us is on the recipient’s demands.
对有些人来说，爱就是要满足被爱者的欲望。
34. Jesus tells us that the mark of discipleship is to love like He loves,
耶稣告诉我们说，门徒的标志就是：要像祂那样去爱，
35. and Jesus never loved sin or ignored sin,
耶稣从没有爱过罪，或姑息罪恶，
36. but He forgave sin.
祂乃是赦免人的罪。
37. While He never sinned, He died to pay for our sins.
祂虽然从来都没有犯过罪，却为救赎我们的罪而死。
38. In fact, it is out of love that we condemn sin because sin is harmful.
事实上，我们是因着爱，才谴责罪，因为罪给人带来了伤害。
39. Sin hurts families.
罪伤害到家庭。
40. Sin destroys people and communities.
罪摧毁人类社会。
41. Sin creates turmoil in society.
罪给社会带来混乱。
42. When Jesus said to the Disciples, “By this all men shall know that you are My disciples…,”
当耶稣对门徒说：“众人因此就认出你们是我的门徒了。”
43. He was not talking about ignoring sin.
祂不是要我们忽视罪的存在。
44. He was not saying that you should demand to be loved by others.
祂也不是要我们只想着接受别人的爱。
45. Jesus was saying that, by pouring out yourself in love for others, the world will know that you are My disciple;
耶稣乃是说，因着你们倾倒自己来爱别人，众人就认出你们是我的门徒了；
46. but, my listening friend, did you know when Jesus said that?
亲爱的朋友，你知道耶稣是什么时候说这话的吗？
47. Jesus said that right after He washed the Disciples’ feet.
耶稣这话，是在祂刚刚给门徒洗完了脚以后说的。
48. Washing feet was often the task of the servant of the house.
给客人洗脚通常是仆人干的活儿。
49. The master of the house never washed the guests’ feet, unless the master was extremely poor.
如果不是这个家一贫如洗的话，家主是从来不会给客人洗脚的。
50. People walked barefoot or wore sandals, and walked on dirt roads, and, so, their feet were filthy.
那时候的人通常赤着脚、或穿一双拖鞋在泥沙地上行走，所以他们的脚很骯脏。
51. Jesus washed all of the Disciples feet, even Judas’ feet.
而耶稣给所有的门徒洗脚，就连犹大的脚也洗了。
52. Jesus knew that Judas had already sold Him to His enemies.
耶稣明明知道，犹大已经出卖了祂。
53. Jesus knew that Peter was going to deny Him three times.
耶稣也知道彼得将要三次不认祂。
54. In fact, Jesus knew that all of His Disciples were going to flee and forsake Him,
其实，耶稣连其余的门徒将要离弃祂也都一清二楚，
55. and He told them so at the Last Supper;
祂在最后晚餐的时候，全都告诉他们了；
56. but John 13:1 gives you the explanation why Jesus washed their feet.
然而约翰福音13章第1节解释了，耶稣为什么要替门徒洗脚。
57. It says that He loved them to the end.
圣经说：耶稣爱他们就爱到底。
58. My listening friend, this is not human love.

这乃是一种救赎之爱。
63. This is a divine love,
这乃是神圣之爱，
64. and that is why I told you in the beginning that this kind of love is neither natural nor easy.
这就是为什么，从一开始，我就告诉你，这种爱决非自然而然、轻而易举就能做到的。
65. Only God can give you this divine love;
只有上帝能赐给你这种神圣之爱；
66. so, let me ask the question again:
所以，我再问你一次：
67. Is loving like Christ easy?
像耶稣那样去爱容易吗？

不容易。
69. but only Christ can make you love like Christ.

有的。
75. The magic wand is to love like Christ.
这支魔棒就是要像耶稣那样去爱。
76. Is there a formula that will help us overcome painful emotions?

88. Will Jesus keep on forgiving you?

89. The answer is “yes...”
的确如此。
90. then, how can you be happy to receive forgiveness at His hand, but not dispense it to others?
你怎么能一味地接受主的饶恕，而不去饶恕别人呢？
91. If you are a disciple of Christ, you must love like Christ.
如果你是基督的门徒，就要像基督那样去爱才是。
92. In the natural man, many of us have short tempers and love for revenge.
按照人的天性，我们都迫不及待地要报复别人。
93. In the natural man, we don’t practice doing unto others as you would have them do unto you.
按照我们的天性，我们都做不到，“你要别人怎样待你，你就怎样待人”。
94. That is why all of us must cry out to the Lord,
因此，我们不得不对主恳求说：
95. “I cannot do it by my own strength.”

96. We must ask God for the process of Christ-likeness to begin in our lives.
我们必须求神帮助我们，在生活中渐渐活出基督的样式来。
97. Is it easy?
这样做容易吗？
98. When you are not walking with the Lord, it is very difficult;
如果你不与主同行，一点儿也不容易；
99. but, when you begin walking with Jesus moment by moment, it becomes easy.
然而，当你学习随时与主同行，就不会那么困难了。

乙部
