Pleasing God before Man / 討神的喜悅勝於人的喜悅
Galatians 1:6-24 ; 1 Thessalonians 2:4 ; 2 Corinthians 10:18
Our goal in life is to please God, not man, but often times we have it reversed. The early church in Galatia was too focused on pleasing the different preachers that came to them. What could happen when we try to please men instead of pleasing God: 1. We compare with each other 2. Man becomes God 3. We try to earn our salvation 4. We become hypocrites Jesus taught his disciples the folly of pleasing man first - Matthew 23
經文: 加1:6-24, 帖前 2:4, 林後 10:18
我們生命的目的是討神的喜悅，不是討人的喜悅; 但是經常是相反。 初期的加拉太教會太注重於討好來訪的不同講員。
當我們試著討人的喜悅而不是討神的喜悅時，將會:
與人比較
人成為神
靠努力得救
假冒為善
耶穌教導門徒先討人喜悅的愚昧 - 馬太福音 23章
