Dear all, Peng An,
For me, the three consecutive psalms looked like a trilogy of historical psalms. The first one traced the past redemption Israel experienced in the historical memory of exodus. The second one reflected upon their history of injustice against the poor and the marginalized people. The third one was crying out to Yahweh after their being exiled and deported to Assyria and Babylon.

Dear all, Peng An,
All should face the righteous judgment of God, no matter what funtion or role you played in God's sovereign rule of the universe. We could not use our service or ministry to God's Kingdom as an excuse to evade our accountability before our God. Ref. Mt. 7:22-23.

Dear all, Peng An,
Here Moses enlisted the different animals which should be offered when different people committed the sin.
It seemed to me God would treat the priest as most important or serious as representing the whole group of people. Then the leaders, then the ordinary people. Thus I would agree with your observations, that our position or role would have different impact or influence on the people. Ref. James 3:1.

Dear all, Peng An,
Reading your sharing helps me to discover that I miscalculated the number of appearance Jesus made in this section of the bible.
Actually Jesus appeared four times. The first time He appeared to Mary Magdalene, who loved Jesus the most and lingered at the tomb the longest. Then Jesus sent Mary to tell His disciples about the good news of His resurrection. Then Jesus appeared to the fearful disciples to strenghten their faith of His resurrection. Then Jesus sent His disciples to spread the gospel. The third time Jesus appeared especially for the absent and doubtful Thomas, to reconfirm his faith on Jesus' resurrection. The fourth time, Jesus appeared to desciples who fished all night to no avail. But the main purpose was to revive Peter's faith and conviction so that Jesus could entrust him with the leadership to start the church after Jesus' ascension.

讓我想起南丁格爾。那時她對於護理工作的定位非常的清楚﹐就是協助醫師診療工作﹐不能踰越護理人員的角色。這並不表示護理工作沒有辦法擁有自己的專業﹐相反的執行的很精確也是一種專業的表現。雖然到現在強調護理人員要有批判性思考﹐然而協助醫師診療以及促進病人的安適的最高準則是沒有變的。如果醫師說要用A藥﹐護理人員不能把醫師沒order的B藥加上去。即使立意在好、文獻足夠﹐這些都是絕對不允許的。祂是規則、祂是主、祂是至高無上的神。

草戊尚土 牧師和各位俱樂部的兄姐,平安:

在這裡我覺得有點像是我們在工廠裡操作機台,這些機台如果不依照操作規範(OI, Operation Instruction)來操作,那可能不只是產品會報廢,嚴重的時候甚至會造成人員傷亡,這時如果不及時做正確的處置,搞不好弄到機台爆炸,那整個工廠都會被波及。

我想或許亞倫喪失兩個兒子應該會感到哀慟,但是他也明白如果上帝任憑他們而為,可能更感到更大的不安吧。

Dear all, Peng An,
I had difficulty understanding the true motivation of the old prophet. Was he deceived by Satan? Was he trying to deceive the young prophet?
Sometimes God would reveal His Will to us through his servants. But sometimes we would be led astray by them. This was a tough lesson for all of us to learn, how to discern between the two.

Dear all, Peng An,
Basically I would agree with your sharing and comment. I would agree with Mou's referring to Jesus Christ as the true vine.
About JBC's comment on the usage of boar as metaphor to describe the Gentiles, Jesus seemed to also use simular metaphor. ( Ref. Mt. 7:6)

Aaron's sons Nadab and Abihu offered unauthorized fire before the Lord, contrary to His command. So they were consumed by the fire came out from the presence of the Lord and died.

They were once praised by following obediently the process of offering (Le 8:36), but due to their neglectful attitude, they irritated the Lord. We are inclined to go our own way in how to owe obedience to God, which will make ourselves trip and fall.

Dear all, Peng An,
It seemed to me that both burnt offering and grain offereing were sweet savor offering to be burnt on the altar.
The burnt offering was from animal without blemish, and would be totally burned after being skinned. The grain offering would be only a small part burned, all leftovers would be consumed by the priest.
There would be nothing to be added upon the animal burnt offering. But the grain offering would need to have oil, frankincense and salt added on before burning. Yeast and honey were not allowed to be mixed with the grain offering.
So I thought there might be some identical theological significance of both the animal burnt offering and the grain offering, as both were sweet savor offering to be burnt on the alter, to be offered to God. 完全無瑕疵 一切全奉獻
As for the kinds of animal that could be used for burnt offering, we saw that God would allow different kinds of animals, from cow to pigeon, according to the worshipper's financial ability.
As for grain offering, God only demand a small part of it being burned as a token or symbol, to be offered to God. All the rest would be consumed by the priest. We saw God's treating his servants with loving tender care...

Facing truth would need lots of courage and wisdom, especially when your personal interest and security was on jeopardy.

Dear all, Peng An,
Both Rehoboam and Jeroboam tried to handle their insecurity by using their own tactics without asking for God's guidance.
Young Rehoboam tried to assert his authority by refusing to listen to the petition of his people, and rebelious Jeroboam tried to grab his authority by refusing to respect the worship system.

Dear all, Peng An,
God's sovereignty was a mysterious topic. According to Paul's theology, recorded in Rom.9:11, God's sovereignty was before human morality.
One possible theological explanation was God's omniscience. (全知) Another possible theological explanation was God's omnipotence.(全能)
According to my reading of Rom.9:11, Paul seemed to be more on the side of God's omnipotence

Dear all, Peng An,
Yeah, these were very complicated interactions between the countries and between God and these countries. But our God seemed to have a very clear mind to know how to handle such complicated interactions.
All human relationships seemed to be all like this kind of interactions. The cause and effect were often intermingled to such a degree that sometimes it would be very hard for us to discern their relationship.

Dear all, Peng An,
Yeah, JBC was fast to refer to the pastors of HoPing. I had to confess that I could not even bear the heat of the black overcoat during summer time, that I had to raise the issue of pastor dressing during preaching and to ask the elder board to allow the pastor the option to wear only thin and short and light colored upper dressing... but I dared not to even mention whether it was permissible to wear short pant, as it would be even cooler without the long pant legs....
I liked Mou for his easily linking the bible content to his personal life experience. This was very good practice as to make our daily devotion more relevant to our own personal lives.
Thanks to YiTing for your detailed enlisting of the seven pieces of the high priest dressings. It definitely was very helpful to read such reviews...

Thanks for your sharing and I enjoyed reading your postings. We missed Yuze again, hopefully this was not due to another episode of computer breaking down.... May our Lord protect and bless Yuze...
Apostle John used large proportion of his gospel to record the last week of our Lord Jesus, especially the last night, before he was arrested and crucified. Reading those last words of our Lord could help us to understand what was the most important concern of our Lord, which was the testimony of His disciples. Because the salvation of the whole world would be hung on their testimonies. Praise be to our Lord, though they were weak and frail, yet our Lord granted them enough grace to testify for the Lord, to spread the gospel to the end of the world, both geographically and chronologically...

I liked the sharing of YiTing, that the poet Asaph changed his attention focus from himself to the Lord.
I liketd JBC's summary findings on Asaph's way of prayer, and the conclusion about 轉念, which I would translate as transformation of perspectives...
I liked the poem quoted by Mou, which was writen by the Jews in the concentration camp. Hope was a very precious gift from God, especially during the darkest days of our lives. May the Lord grant us hope no matter what situation we were in...

Dear all, Peng An,
I liked Mr. Mou's reflection and application.
It was very interesting that the Prophet Jeremiah was inspired to prophesize about Moab. It seemed to me that our God would have sovereignty over the whole world, no matter whether the country would worhsip God or not. And God seemed to be sovereign to chose the person He would like to use to inspire to warn Moab.
I wondered whether and how Moab people responded to the prophecy made by Israel prophet Jeremiah, especially Israel was a country with impending destruction by the Lord....

Dear all, Peng An,
In my own theology, the tree of good and evil was very important, as it represented God's special grace toward humanity by granting humanity the privilege of the freedom of choice.
The true freedom of choice would allow human to make wrong choice and to suffer the consequence. But God seemed to love human so much that He decided to send his only begotten son Jesus to bear the consequence, so as to give humanity a second chance of the freedom of choice. This second privilage was about whether to receive Jesus Christ as our Savior and the Lord of our lives.
Usually people would be easier to receive Jesus Christ as their Savior who had died for their sins on the cross. But people would be tougher to receive Jesus Christ as the Lord of their daily lives...
This was not the negation of the freedom of choice, but the loving response of the redeemed believers to use their second chance of the freedom of choice to chose to obey Jesus Christ to the most details...

I liked JBC's sharing. Usually we would tend to criticize those who seemed to fail in the Bible, but JBC's perspective was very refreshing and reminding of us not to jump into our conclusion too fast. Try to look at the same story with many different possible perspectives. yeah, perspectives were very important. May our God grant us the ability to jump out of our prejudice, and be able to raise ourselves to higher vantage point of view, so that we could try to look at the same incidence with fresh and different perspectives.....

Dear Yuze, Peng An,
Whew!!! We could not read your posting due to the crash of your computer, not due to other more serious personal difficulties. Sweating, sweating.... BTW, computer brought lots of blessing to us, but we seemed to be hooked on computer and internet more and more... It looked like a cursing blessing....
King Solomon's life was recorded in the Bible unabridged and unbiased. Thus we had chance to learn from his life story. Solomon was the second child of David's unlawful wife Bathesba. Yet he received God's blessing in spite of his birthing order or status. He made a very good decision during his youth to ask God for wisdom, and not for money, power, or other privileges, and God granted his prayer. He build the temple for God, and was blessed by God on temple dedication. He enjoyed good and long life, enormous fame and huge richness... Yet, in his later days, he seemed to be influenced by his concubines, so that his faith in God was contaminated by syncretism... Let's we all pray that God would protect and guide us, all the way in our lives, till the last minute of our breath...
