CHAPTER ONE          BAD NEWS ABOUT THE GOOD NEWS          Galatians 1:1–10                  第一課                             關於好消息的壞消息                                           加拉太書11–10

The lad at my front door was trying to sell me a subscription to a weekly newspaper, and he was very persuasive. “It only costs a quarter a week,” he said, “and the best thing about this newspaper is that it prints only the good news!”                                                                                  在我家門口的小伙子試圖向我逗售一份週報,他很有說服力的說,每週只花一夸特(四分之一美元),就知天下最好的事,該報只登載好消息!

In a world filled with trouble, it is becoming more and more difficult to find any “good news,” so perhaps the newspaper was a bargain after all. To the person who has trusted Christ as Savior, the real “good news” is the gospel: “Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures … he was buried, and … he rose again the third day according to the Scriptures” (1 Cor. 15:3–4). It is the good news that sinners can be forgiven and go to heaven because of what Jesus Christ did on the cross. The good news of salvation through faith in Christ is the most important message in the world.                                                                                                                                                            在這個充滿麻煩的世界裡,要找到  好消息變得越來越困難,所以也許報紙畢竟是便宜貨。對於相信基督為救世主的人來說,真正的  好消息是福音:基督按照聖經為我們的罪而死……埋葬.…根據聖經,第三天祂從死裡復活了(林前   153-4)。好消息是耶穌基督在十字架上的所作所為,罪人可以被寬恕並上天堂。通過對基督的信心得救的好消息是世界上最好的信息。

This message had changed Paul’s life and, through him, the lives of others. But now this message was being attacked, and Paul was out to defend the truth of the gospel. Some false teachers had invaded the churches of Galatia—churches Paul had founded— and were teaching a different message from that which Paul had taught.                                                                                            信息改變了保羅的生命,並通過他改變了其他人的生活。但是現在這信息遭受攻擊,保羅出去捍衛這福音的真理。  一些假教師入侵到加拉太的教會(保羅建立的教會),並傳授與保羅所教導不同的信息。

As you begin to read Paul’s letter to the Galatian Christians, you can tell immediately that something is radically wrong, because he does not open his letter with his usual praise to God and prayer for the saints. He has no time! Paul is about to engage in a battle for the truth of the gospel and the liberty of the Christian life. False teachers are spreading a false “gospel” which is a mixture of law and grace, and Paul is not going to stand by and do nothing.                                    當開始閱讀保羅給加拉太信徒的信時,你會立即看出有些基本的不同點,因為他沒有一開始來寫這信就沒有對上帝的讚美和為聖徒祈禱。因為保羅沒時間! 他要即刻為福音的真理和基督徒生活的自由而戰。假教師散佈著虛假的  福音,是律法與恩典的混合體,保羅不能無所作為而袖手旁觀。

How does Paul approach the Galatian Christians in his attempt to teach them the truth about the gospel? In these opening verses, the apostle takes three definite steps as he prepares to fight this battle.                                                                                                                                                        保羅如何嘗試向加拉太基督徒傳福音。在這些開頭的經文中,使徒準備戰鬥時就採取了三個確定的步驟。

1.  He Explains His Authority (1:1–5)                                                                                                        1.  他解釋了他具有的權威(11-5

Later on in his letter, Paul will deal with the Galatians on the basis of affection (Gal. 4:12–20); but at the outset he is careful to let them know the authority he has from the Lord. He has three sources of authority.                                                                                                                                稍後,保羅將在感情上與加拉太人打交道(加     412-20);但一開始他就要小心,讓他們知道他從主那裡所擁有的權柄。他具有三種權柄的源頭。

His ministry (vv. 1–2). “Paul, an apostle.” In the early days of the church, God called special men to do special tasks. Among them were the apostles. The word means “one who is sent with a commission.” While He was ministering on earth, Jesus had many disciples (“learners”), and from these He selected twelve apostles (Mark 3:13–19). Later, one of the requirements for an apostle was that he have witnessed the resurrection (Acts 1:21–22; 2:32; 3:15). Of course, Paul himself was neither a disciple nor an apostle during Christ’s earthly ministry, but he had seen the risen Lord and been commissioned by Him (Acts 9:1–18; 1 Cor. 9:1).                                                  他的職事(1-2兩節)。保羅是使徒。在早期的教會,上帝呼召特殊的人去做特殊的任務。其中有使徒。這個詞的意思是  被派遣職事的人。當祂在世上服務時,耶穌有許多門徒(學徒),祂從這些門徒中選了十二位使徒(可   313-19)。後來,選使徒的資格之一是他必須要目睹復活主(徒   121-22 232 315)。當然,保羅在基督世上的事奉期間,他既不是門徒也不是使徒,但他親眼見過復活的主,並受祂的委託(徒   91-18;林前91)。

Paul’s miraculous conversion and call to apostleship created some problems. From the very beginning, he was apart from the original apostles. His enemies said that he was not a true apostle for this reason. Paul is careful to point out that he had been made an apostle by Jesus Christ just as much as had the original Twelve. His apostleship was not from human selection and approval, but by divine appointment. Therefore, he had the authority to deal with the problems in the Galatian churches.                                                                                                                                    保羅奇蹟般的悔改,和被呼召為使徒,為他的身份帶來了一些問題。從一開始,他就是與最初的使徒分開的。他的敵人說,出於這個原因,他不是真正的使徒。保羅小心地指出,耶穌基督已使他成為使徒,與原先的十二使徒完全一樣。他的使徒身份並非來自世人的选定和認可,而是來自上帝的任命。因此,他有權處理加拉太教會中的問題。

But in his ministry, Paul had a second basis for authority: he had founded the churches in Galatia. He was not writing to them as a stranger, but as the one who had brought them the message of life in the beginning! This letter reveals Paul’s affection for these believers (see Gal. 4:12–19). Unfortunately, this affection was not being returned to him.                                                但是在他的職事中,保羅的權威有第二個依據:他在加拉太建立了教會。他不是以陌生人的身份寫信給他們,而是一開始就給他們帶來生命信息的人來寫這信!這封信揭示了保羅對這些信徒的愛護(見  加   412-19)。不幸的是,他們沒有把這種愛轉變歸還給他。

This matter of the founding of the Galatian churches has kept serious Bible students at work for many years. The problem stems from the meaning of the word Galatia. Several hundred years before the birth of Christ, some fierce tribes migrated from Gaul (modern France) into Asia Minor, and founded Galatia, which simply means “the country of the Gauls.” When the Romans reorganized the ancient world, they made Galatia a part of a larger province that included several other areas, and they called the entire province Galatia. So, back in Paul’s day, when a person talked about Galatia, you could not be sure whether he meant the smaller country of Galatia or the larger Roman province.                                                                                                      對加拉太教會的建立問題,認真用功研習聖經的學生多年來一直在研討。問題出在加拉太這詞的含義。基督誕生前幾百年,兇猛的部落從高盧(現在的法國)遷移到小亞細亞,成立了加拉太(Galatia),這簡直就是  高盧人的國家。羅馬人重組古代世界時,他們使加拉太成為包括多個其他地區的較大省份的一部分,如是他們將整個加拉太稱為一個省。因此,在保羅時代,當一個人談論加拉太時,你不能確定他指的是較小的加拉太國家還是較大的羅馬省。

Bible students are divided over whether Paul wrote to churches in the country of Galatia or in the province of Galatia. The former view is called the “north Galatian theory” and the latter the “south Galatian theory.” The matter is not finally settled, but the evidence seems to indicate that Paul wrote to churches in the southern part of the province of GalatiaAntioch, Iconium, Lystra, Derbe—churches he founded on his first missionary journey (Acts 13—14).                                    聖經學生在保羅寫信給加拉太的國家或加拉太的省的教會時意見分歧。前者被稱為  北加拉太理論,後者被稱為  南加拉太理論。此事尚未取得最終解決,但證據似乎表明保羅寫信給加拉太省南部的教堂,即他在第一次傳教旅程中同時建立的教堂,安提阿,以哥念,路司得,特庇(徒 13-14

Paul always had a loving concern for his converts and a deep desire to see the churches he had founded glorify Christ (see Acts 15:36; 2 Cor. 11:28). He was not content to lead men and women to Christ and then abandon them. (For an example of his “aftercare,” read 1 Thess. 2.)                保羅常常對他帶領悔改的信徒充滿愛的關懷,並渴望看到他所建立的教會會榮耀基督1(見  徒   15 : 36;林前11 : 28)。他不滿意於帶領人歸向基督,然後放棄他們。 (有關他的  信後照顧  的示例,請讀  帖前  2章)

When Paul heard that false teachers had begun to capture his converts and lead them astray, he was greatly concerned—and rightly so. After all, teaching new Christians how to live for Christ is as much a part of Christ’s commission as winning them (Matt. 28:19–20). Sad to say, many of the Galatian Christians had turned away from Paul, their “spiritual father” in the Lord, and were now following legalistic teachers who were mixing Old Testament law with the gospel of God’s grace. (We call these false teachers “Judaizers”  because they were trying to entice Christians back into the Jewish religious system.)                                                                                                  當保羅聽說假教師已經開始抓住他所帶領的信主門徒,並使他們誤入歧途時,他非常擔心,這是正確的。畢竟,新信徒的教導,使他們如何為基督而活,是為基督贏得他們的使命之一(太  2819-20)。可悲的是,許多加拉太的基督徒已經從保羅,他們的  屬靈之父,因假教師的誤導,使他們轉過頭去,現在去追隨假教師將上帝的恩典的福音,與舊約律法主義混亂在一起的教導。 (我們稱這些假教師為  猶太律法師,因為他們試圖誘使信徒重返猶太宗教律法舊的體系。

So, Paul had a ministry as an apostle, and specifically as the founder of the Galatian churches. As such, he had the authority to deal with the problems in the churches. But there was a second source of authority.                                                                                                                                      因此,保羅以使徒身份擔任傳道人,特別是加拉太教會的創始人。因此,他有權處理教會中的問題。但是,他還有第二個權威來源。

His message (vv. 3–4). From the very beginning, Paul clearly stated the message of the gospel, because it was this message that the Judaizers were changing. The gospel centers in a Person—Jesus Christ, the Son of God. This Person paid a price—He gave Himself to die on the cross. (You will discover that the cross is important in the Galatian letter, see 2:19–21; 3:1, 13; 4:5; 5:11, 24; 6:12–14.) Christ paid the price that He might achieve a purpose—delivering sinners from bondage.                                                                                                                                                        他傳講的信息(3-4節)。保羅從一開始就清楚地傳講福音的信息,因為猶太人正在要改變他傳的信息。福音集中在道成肉身的人 —— 耶穌基督,上帝的兒子。 祂付出了代價 —— 死在十字架上為贖我們的罪。 (你會發現加拉太書信中的十字架的信息很重要,見                219–21; 3113; 45; 5:1124; 612-14)。可能達到目的 —— 將罪人從奴役中解救出來。

 Liberty in Christ” is the dominant theme of Galatians. (Check the word bondage in 2:4; 4:3, 9, 24–25; 5:1.) The Judaizers wanted to lead the Christians out of the liberty of grace into the bondage of law. Paul knew that bondage was not a part of the message of the gospel, for Christ had died to set men free.                                                                                                                               在基督裡的自由  是加拉太書的重要主題。 (在   24 43924-25 51  中檢查  束縛一詞。)猶太人想把基督徒從恩典的自由中,引誘到律法的束縛中。保羅知道束縛不是福音信息的一部分,因為基督死了是為了釋放人得自由。

Paul’s ministry and message were sources of spiritual authority.                                                      保羅的事工和他的信息是他屬靈權威的源頭。

His motive (v. 5). “To whom be glory forever and ever!” The false teachers were not ministering for the glory of Christ, but for their own glory (see Gal. 6:12–14). Like false teachers today, the Judaizers were not busy winning lost people to Christ. Rather, they were stealing other men’s converts and bragging about their statistics. But Paul’s motive was pure and godly: he wanted to glorify Jesus Christ (see 1 Cor. 6:19–20; 10:31–33).                                                                              他的動機(加     5節)。 上帝是永遠的榮耀!  假教師不是為基督的榮耀事奉,而是為自己的榮耀服務(見  加     612-14)。猶如今天的假教師一樣,猶太律法師人並不忙於帶領喪失的罪人歸回基督。相反,他們是在竊取他人所帶領信主的信徒,並吹噓自己的統計數據。但是保羅的動機是純潔而敬虔的:他想榮耀耶穌基督(見  林前619-20; 1031-33)。

Paul has now explained his authority. He is ready for a second step as he begins this battle for the liberty of the Christian.                                                                                                                              保羅現在解釋了他的權威。在為爭取基督徒的自由而展開的這場鬥爭中,他準備邁出第二步
