Walking in Freedom Everyday
每日行在自由中
Focus Verse
重点经文
Hebrew 5：14：But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.
希伯来书 5 章 14节：“唯独长大成人的，才能吃干粮，他们的心窍习练得通达了，就能分辨好歹了。”
Objective
目标
To help people understand that taking hold of their freedom in Christ is not one-off experience – it needs to become a way of life – and to provide them with tools to help.
帮助人们理解紧紧抓住基督里的自由不是一次完成的经历---它需要成为一种生命方式---还要给人们提供一些工具协助他们。
Focus Truth
重点真理
Our success in continuing to walk in freedom and grow in maturity depends on the extent to which we continue to renew our minds and train ourselves to distinguish good from evil.
我们能否每天持续行走在自由中，取决于我们在多大程度上继续更新我们的头脑，并训练自己如何分辨善与恶。

Barriers to Maturity
成熟的障碍
“Brothers, I could not address you as spiritual but as worldly – mere infants in Christ. I gave you milk, no solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready. You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? (1 Corinthians 3:1-3).
“弟兄们，我从前对你们说的话，不能把你们当作属灵的，只得把你们当作属肉体， 在基督里为婴孩的。我用奶喂你们，没有用饭喂你们，那时你们不能吃，就是如今还是不能。 你们仍是属肉体的，因为在你们中间有嫉妒，纷争，这岂不是属乎肉体，照着世人的样子行吗？（哥林多前书3章1-3节）
Not Taking Hold of Our Spiritual Freedom
没有握紧我们心灵的自由
“His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.” (2 Peter 1:3).
“上帝的神能已经将一切关乎生命和虔敬的事赐给我们，皆因我们认识那用自己荣耀和美德召我们的主”。（彼得后书1章3节）
There is great difference between freedom – which can be obtained in a relatively short time – and maturity, which is the work of a lifetime.
自由和成熟有很大的不同：自由可以在短期内获得，而成熟要一生的努力。
Freedom is a position we take in response to Christ’s victory over sin and Satan. We are either free or bound in various areas of our lives. We don’t grow into freedom in these areas: we take possession of freedom by the authority we have in Christ wherever we realize that we have been deceived and bound.
自由是在我们身上基督胜过罪与撒旦的反应状态。 我们在自己生命的各个方面不是自由的，就是受束缚的。 我们不是在这些方面成熟起来进入自由，而是每当我们意识到我们被欺骗被束缚住了，我们就紧紧握住我们在基督里所有的权柄让我们拥有的自由。
Not Taking Personal Responsibility
没有承担个人责任
“It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.”(Galatians 5:1).
“基督释放了我们，叫我们得以自由，所以我们要站立得稳，不要再被奴仆的轭辖制”。
Pause for thought 1
思考问题 1
Have you matured as a Christian as quickly as you would like? What are some of the things that have hindered you? Does it feel as if you already have everything you need? Have you ever hoped that renewing your mind might be as simple as asking God to “zap” you? Why does He tend not to do this?
你作为一名基督徒是否像你想象的那样快的成长？什么东西阻拦了你的成长？ 是否你觉得你已经拥有所有作为基督徒所需要的东西了？ 你是否曾经希望更新你的头脑就像请求上帝“灌输”进去一样简单？为什么他不倾向于这样做？
Nothing and no one can prevent you from becoming the person God wants you to be – except you!
没有什么事情，也没有任何人能阻拦你成为上帝要你成为的人， 除了你自己。
Not Knowing The Basic Truths
不了解基本真理
“Though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God’s word all over again. You need milk, not solid food! Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.”(Hebrews 5:12-14)
“看你们学习的功夫，本该做师傅，谁知还得有人将神的基本真理重新教导你们，并且成了那必须吃奶，不能吃干粮的人。 凡只能吃奶的，都不熟练公义的道理，因为他是婴孩。唯独长大成人的，才能吃干粮，他们的心窍习练得通达，就能分辨好歹了”。（希伯来书5章12-14节）
Faulty Thinking
错误想法
Psychologists tell us that it takes around six weeks to form or break a habit. Once you have dealt with any footholds of the enemy, a mental stronghold is simply a habitual way of thinking, Can you break a habit? Of course – but it takes some effort over a period of time.
心理学家说形成或者改变一个习惯需要6周的时间。一旦你已经处理了敌人的所有立足点，一种思维的惯性就仅仅剩下习惯性的思维方式而已。你能改变一个习惯吗， 当然，只是这需要努力一段时间而已。
Not Training ourselves To Distinguish Good from Evil
未训练自己分辨善恶
Let’s look again at something the writer to the Hebrews said: “But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.”(Hebrews 5:14).
我们来看看希伯来书的作者对希伯来人所说的话：“唯独长大成人的， 才能吃干粮，他们的心窍习练得通达，就能分辨好歹了”（希伯来书5章14节）。

Pause For Thought 2
思考问题２
Take a lie and work out a “stronghold-buster”. It maight be really helpful to take a real lie that someone in the group has uncovered. Otherwise choose from this list: “I feel inferior”: “I feel that what I’ve done makes me unacceptable to God”; “I can’t stop doing something that I know is wrong (choose something specific)”; “I am a failure”; “I know this works for others but it won’t work for me”.
找一个谎言，作“拆除固疾”的练习。拿组里某个人找出的一个真正的谎言为例，或者，从下面的清单中挑选一个：“我觉得自己不如人”，“我做的事情使上帝不能接受我”，“我不能停止做我明知是错的事”（指明具体的事项），“我是个失败者”，“我知道这个对别人有用，但对我不会有用”。
Taking A Long –Term View
用长期的眼光来看待
“Forgetting what is behind and straining towards what is ahead, I press on towards the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenwards in Christ Jesus. All of us who are mature should take such a view of things” (Philippians 3:13b
“忘记背后，努力面前的， 要得神在耶稣基督里从上面召我来得的奖赏。我们中间所有成熟的人，都应当有这样的眼光” (腓力比书3：13b –

Example of A “Stronghold-Buster”
一个拆毁痼疾的例子
Taking Comfort In Food Rather Than God
以食物而不是以神为安慰
The lie: that overeating brings lasting comfort.
谎言：过食带来持久的舒适。
Proverbs 25:28
Like a city whose walls are broken down is a man who lacks self-control.
箴言25章28节

Galatians 5:16
So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature.
加拉太书5章16节
所以我说：你们当顺着圣灵而行，就不放纵肉体的情欲了。
Galatians 5:22
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires.
加拉太书5章22节
圣灵所结的果子，就是仁爱，喜乐，和平，忍耐，恩慈，良善，信实，温柔，节制，这样的事，没有律法禁止。凡属基督耶稣的人，是已经把肉体上连肉体的邪情私欲同钉在十字架上了。
2 Corinthians 1:3-4
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.
哥林多后书1 章3-4节
愿颂赞归于我们的主耶稣基督的父神，就是发慈悲的父，赐各样安慰的神。 在我们一切的患难中，他安慰我们， 叫我们能用神所赐的安慰去安慰那遭各样患难的人。
Psalm 63:4-5
I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will life up my hands. My soul will be satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you.
诗篇63 篇4-5节
我还活着的时候要这样称颂你，我要奉你的名举手。我的心就像饱足了骨髓肥油，我也要以欢乐的嘴唇赞美你。
Psalm 119:76
May your unfailing love be my comfort.
诗篇119章76节
愿你永远的慈爱成为我的安慰。
Lord, I renounce the lie that overeating brings lasting comfort. I announce the truth that you are the God of all comfort and that your unfailing love is my only legitimate and real comfort. I affirm that I now live by the Spirit and do not have to gratify the desires of the flesh. Whenever I feel in need of comfort, instead of turning to foods I choose to praise you and be satisfied as with the richest of foods. Fill me afresh with your Holy Spirit and live through me as I grow in self-control. Amen.
主啊，我拒绝接受过食会带来长久舒适的谎言。 我宣告你是赐各样安慰的神的真理，你永远不变的爱是我唯一合理而真实的安慰。我确认我如今依靠圣灵而活，不必迎合满足所有肉体的贪欲。每当我感觉需要安慰的时候，我选择不去寻找食物，而是赞美你， 并且如得到丰盛食物一般得享满足。用你的圣灵重新充满我，并且一直在我里面活着使我学会成熟节制。 阿门！

Suggestions For Your Quiet Times This Week:
建议你在本周安静的时间作以下事情：
Work out a stronghold-buster for the most significant lie you have uncovered and start work on it.

Big Questions (to consider before the next session):

When another Christian does something wrong, what would be a good way for you to respond? The Bible tells us not to judge others but it also makes clear that Christians sometimes need to be disciplined. What is the difference?
当另一个基督徒做了错事，你如何回应是好的方式？圣经告诉我们不要论断别人，但也说得很清楚基督徒需要被纪律约束， 这两者有什么不同？
