【加1:12】因为我不是从人领受的，也不是人教导我的，乃是从耶稣基督启示来的。【Gal 1:12】I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.

当保罗面对那些敌对他的人，对他发起挑战攻击、质疑和毁谤时，保罗很确信他所传的信息是从神而来，不是从人而来。When Paul faced those who were hostile to him, who challenged, questioned, and slandered him, Paul was very sure that the message he preached came from God, not from man. 因保罗的是根基建立在基督的磐石之上，他说我若讨人的喜欢他就不是基督的真仆人了。Because Paul's foundation was built on the rock of Christ, he said that if he tried to please people, he would not be a true servant of Christ.做神的真仆人要面对很多的试炼考试，如何去应对一个又一个艰难的环境呢？To be a true servant of God, you have to face many trials and tests. How do you deal with one difficult environment after another?

保罗给出了很明确的答案，那就是因为他不是从人领受的，也不是人教导他的，乃是从耶稣基督启示来的。Paul gave a very clear answer: it was because he did not receive it from people, nor was he taught by people, but it was revealed by Jesus Christ. 保罗先强调自己的使徒身份。他作使徒，不是由于人的意思，也不是藉着人的按立，乃是藉着耶稣基督。Paul first emphasised his apostleship. He became an apostle not by human will, nor by human ordination, but by Jesus Christ. 是复活的基督亲自设立他为使徒。他使徒的身份是从父神而来。It was the resurrected Christ who personally established him as an apostle. His apostleship came from God the Father. 使敌对他的人看到神的工作，也能从错误的道上悔改转道。So that those who were hostile to him could see the work of God and repent from the wrong path.

保罗严厉地警告他们，若离开基督纯正的福音，去随从异端邪说，把基督的福音更改了，无论是谁，都当被咒诅。 Paul sternly warned them that if they left the pure gospel of Christ and followed heresies, whoever changed the gospel of Christ should be cursed. 保罗要加拉太各教会分辨异端，而不是被异端迷惑。主啊，是的，若没有坚定耶稣基督的真理，我们很容易就入了迷惑，就陷入网罗，遭了咒诅都还不知道。 Paul wanted the Galatian churches to discern heresy, not to be deceived by it. Lord, yes, if we do not firmly hold the truth of Jesus Christ, we can easily be deceived, fall into a snare, and be cursed without knowing it.

感谢主，借着保罗对加拉太各教会的责备，今天也是对我们的责备，提醒劝勉让我们持定纯正基督的福音，不知道别的，只知道耶稣基督并祂钉十字架的真理。God, through Paul's rebuke to the Galatian churches, it is also a rebuke to us today, reminding and exhorting us to hold on to the pure gospel of Christ, and know nothing else but the truth of Jesus Christ and His crucifixion. 当我们去传福音的时候，也会受到挑战，当我们有从耶稣基督启示而来的确信，我们就靠主刚强壮胆为祂做见证，Thank When we go to preach the gospel, we will also be challenged. When we have the assurance from the revelation of Jesus Christ, we will rely on the Lord to be strong and courageous to bear witness for Him. 基督照着父神的旨意为我们死，为要救我们脱离罪恶的权势。惟有神配得一切的荣耀，直到永永远远。阿们！ Christ died for us according to the will of God the Father to save us from the power of sin. Only God deserves all glory forever and ever. Amen!（郭姊妹Sister Guo）
