【约叁7-8】因他们是为主的名（原文作“那名”）出外，对于外邦人一无所取。所以我们应该接待这样的人，叫我们与他们一同为真理做工。【3 John7-8】It was for the sake of the Name that they went out, receiving no help from the pagans. We ought therefore to show hospitality to such people so that we may work together for the truth.

使徒时代，福音从耶路撒冷传到外邦，需要人摆上自己，离开本地本族本家，到各处去传扬福音。In the apostolic age, the gospel was spread from Jerusalem to the Gentiles, and people were required to sacrifice themselves, leave their homeland, clans, and families, and go everywhere to preach the gospel.他们为主的名出外，对于外邦人一无所取，反而献上自己的一切所有，与人同得福音的好处。It was for the sake of the Name that they went out, receiving no help from the pagans. Instead, they gave up everything they had to share the blessings of the gospel with others.使徒约翰在给该犹的信中，称赞他接待这样的人，就是与他们一同为真理做工。In his letter to Gaius, the apostle John praised him for receiving such people, recognising it as working with them for the truth.

有人奉差遣出外，有人背后代祷，有人给予财物的支持，有人打开家门接待…Some were sent out, some prayed behind the scenes, some gave financial support, and some opened their homes to receive them.虽然职责功用不同，却是彼此搭配，一同为真理做工，使主的名被高举，被传扬，神国被扩张。Though their roles and functions were different, they worked together for the truth, so that the name of the Lord was exalted, spread, and the kingdom of God was expanded.主说：无论何人，因为门徒的名，只把一杯凉水给这小子里的一个喝，我实在告诉你们，这人不能不得赏赐。The Lord said: “If anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones who is my disciple, truly I tell you, that person will certainly not lose their reward.”

主啊，一个人不能完成大使命。Lord, one person cannot complete the Great Commission.福音被传到全地，也临到我们，是因着多少宣教士舍家舍业舍生命，背后更有多少人默默的付出和信心的献上。The gospel has been spread all over the world and has come to us because of so many missionaries who gave up their homes, jobs, and lives, and behind them, there are countless people who have silently paid the price and offered their faith.纵然他们名字，不被人知，在神那里却都纪念。今天接力棒传到我们的手中，为着失丧的灵魂，为着在黑暗中哭泣的人，主啊，我在这里…Even though their names are unknown, they are remembered by God. Today, the baton is passed to us. For the lost souls, for those crying in the darkness, Lord, I am here...

主啊，我的生命是你重价赎买回来的，我拿什么报答你的救恩？惟有献上自己，接受你的塑造，为你所用。Lord, You bought my life at a great cost. How can I repay Your salvation? I can only offer myself, accept Your shaping, and be used by You.圣灵，帮助我不依靠自己的能力，不求人前的荣耀，使我忠于你的托付，活出爱的生命，去见证神的大能。Holy Spirit, help me not to rely on my own ability, not to seek glory in front of people, so that I may be loyal to Your entrustment, live a life of love, and witness God's power.主啊，求你兴起更多人，在各个职份上，一同为真理做工，把福音的好处传给万民。Lord, please raise up more people to work for the truth in various positions and spread the benefits of the gospel to all nations. (付传道Pastor Fu)
