在患难中经历基督复活的大能
Experience the Power of Resurrection of Christ in Tribulation
使我认识基督,晓得他复活的大能,并且晓得和他一同受苦,效法他的死, 或者我也得以从死里复活。这不是说我已经得着了,已经完全了;我乃是竭力追求,或者可以得着基督耶稣所以得着我的(所以得着我的:或译所要我得的)。 弟兄们,我不是以为自己已经得着了;我只有一件事,就是忘记背后,努力面前的, 向着标竿直跑,要得 神在基督耶稣里从上面召我来得的奖赏。 所以我们中间,凡是完全人总要存这样的心;若在什么事上存别样的心, 神也必以此指示你们。 (腓立比书3:10-15 和合本)
I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. All of us, then, who are mature should take such a view of things. And if on some point you think differently, that too God will make clear to you. (Philippians3:10-15 NIV)
