James Part 2: Faith Being Probed And Producing (Chinese/English)

Chapter 1:2-4
雅各书1:2-4

2 Count it all joy, my brothers, [b] when you meet trials of various kinds, 3 for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. 4 And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
我的弟兄们，你们落在百般试炼中，都要以为大喜乐；因为知道你们的信心经过试验，就生忍耐。但忍耐也当成功，使你们成全、完备，毫无缺欠

Faith Being Probed And Producing
信心被试炼和产生

James doesn’t waste time getting to the point, does he?
雅阁不拖泥带水 直接切入正题，不是吗？

Faith is a key word in this book, he outlines this further in Chapter 2 and throughout the book. You say that you have faith, well, where’s the evidence.
信心在此卷书中是一个关键的话语，他在第二章和整本书中进一步概述了这一点。你说你有信心，那证据在哪里。

In the great chapter of faith in Hebrews 11, the people there had their faith tested, Abraham in Genesis 22, Moses by the children of Israel and many others.
在希伯来书第11章关于信心的重要章节中，那里的人接受了信心的考验，亚伯拉罕在《创世纪》第22章，摩西接受了以色列人和其他许多人的考验。

All trials and tests we go through are to make our faith real, they are not meant to destroy it, they are meant to strengthen it, that is why James can tell us to count it all joy, in modern terms, to count, every trial as a blessing.
我们所经历的所有试炼和考验都是为了使我们的信心更实际，这些试炼不是要摧毁信心，而是要巩固它，这就是为什么雅各告诉我们要把一切都当作喜乐，用现代的话来说，要把每一次试炼都当作祝福。

God knows every trial we go through, He is Sovereign over every trial and is in control of every situation, He is with us, indeed one of the reasons, we can count it all joy, is because our Lord is with us through that trial.
神知道我们所经历的每一个试炼，祂是每一个试炼的主权者，祂控制每一个情况，祂与我们同在，事实上，其中一个原因，我们可以把这一切都当作喜乐，是因为我们的主与我们一同经历了试炼。

The more trials we go through, the stronger we become, the first ones hurt, we wonder why, but as we stand against these, we are able to move on and to become steadfast and strong, it is like exercising a muscle, the more you exercise it, the stronger it becomes.
我们经历的试炼越多，我们就变得越刚强，第一次受到伤害时，我们想知道为什么，但当我们与它们对抗时，我们就能继续前进，变得坚定和强大，这就像锻炼肌肉，你锻炼得越多，就变得越强壮。

Trials and tests are God’s training ground, they are God’s proving ground for his children, we go through them, because we are his sons and daughters and not bastards. Hebrews 12 and Romans 8.
试炼和试炼是上帝的训练场，是上帝给他的儿女们的试验场，我们要经历这些考验，因为我们是他的儿女，不是私子。希伯来书12章和罗马书8章。

Remember, we can count it all joy, because they are true evidence of our faith, they mature and grow us and because finally, they prove that we are His.
记住，我们可以把这些试炼都看作是喜乐，因为它们是我们信心的真实证据，它们使我们成熟和成长，因为这会最终证明我们是属祂的。

God bless you

愿上帝祝福你
