他是谁？

[CHRIS88]

平凡生平
他生在一个偏僻的小村子里，父亲是木匠，母亲是村姑。三十岁以前，他做木匠，没进过大学，没写过书，没做过一官半职。他没家眷，从没置业，也从没访过名城。他一生活动的範围充其量不出二百英里。

他传道仅三年半，受尽白眼、批评；被陷害时，朋友四散，当中还有一个是出卖他的，另一个为了自保，矢口说不认得他。他被因妒成恨的人诬告陷害，接受公审，遭到鞭打，最后被判死刑。他的案子是历史上最着名的冤狱。他被钉在十字架上，挂在两个强盗中间，受尽讥诮凌辱，死后葬在他人的墓穴之中。（注）


不凡人物

然而，二十个世纪来了又去，直到今天，他仍是影响人类最深远的人。所有的君王、将帅、伟人、豪杰、学者、富人，他们的财富和丰功伟绩，合起来仍不及他对人类影响之深。

这人是谁？

历史上从没有一个人能和他相提并论。他没用过仆人，人们却称他为「主」；他没学位，人们却称他为师；他没赠药，人们却称他为医；他没有一兵一卒，君王却惧怕他；他没动过刀枪，却以爱征服世界。他死后被埋葬，可到今天，依然活着。

他是谁？为什么到了二千年后的今天，他仍能吸引无数人的景仰和追随？

 

[CHRIS88]

One Solitary Life

He was born in an obscure village, the child of a peasant woman. He grew up in still another village, where He worked in a carpenter shop until He was 30. Then for three years He was an itinerant preacher.

He never wrote a book. He never held an office. He never had a family or owned a house. He didn't go to college. He never traveled more than 200 miles from the place He was born. He did none of the things one usually associates with greatness. He had no credentials but Himself.

He was only 33 when public opinion turned against Him. His friends deserted Him. He was turned over to His enemies and went through the mockery of a trial. He was nailed to a cross between two thieves. When He was dying, His executioners gambled for His clothing, the only property He had.. . . on earth. When He was dead, He was laid in a borrowed grave through the pity of a friend.

Nineteen centuries have come and gone, and today He is the central figure of the human race, the leader of mankind's progress. All the armies that ever marched, all the navies that ever sailed, all the parliaments that ever sat, all the kings that ever reigned, put together, have not affected the life of man on earth as much as that One Solitary Life.

Do You Know Who He Is?

约翰福音第四章

21 耶稣说，妇人，你当信我，时候将到，你们拜父，也不在这山上，也不在耶路撒冷。


22 你们所拜的，你们不知道。我们所拜的，我们知道。因为救恩是从犹太人出来的。


23 时候将到，如今就是了，那真正拜父的，要用心灵和诚实拜他，因为父要这样的人拜他。


24 神是个灵（或无个字）所以拜他的，必须用心灵和诚实拜他。


25 妇人说，我知道弥赛亚，（就是那称为基督的）要来。他来了，必将一切的事都告诉我们。


26 耶稣说，这和你说话的就是他。
