神父講道 – 四旬期第四週 (週三) (2013年3月13日)

恭讀聖若望福音 5:17-30

那時候,耶穌向猶太人說:「我父到現在一直工作,我也應該工作。」為此猶太人越發想要殺害他,因為他不但犯了安息日,而且又稱天主是自己的父,使自己與天主平等。
耶穌於是回答他們說:「我實實在在告訴你們:子不能由自己作什麼,他看見父作什麼,才能作什麼;凡父所作的,子也照樣作,因為父愛子,凡自己所作的都指示給他;並且還要把比這些更大的工程指示給他,為叫你們驚奇。如如父喚起死者,使他們復生,照樣子也使他所願意的人復生。父不審判任何人,但他把審判的全權交給了子,為叫眾人尊敬子如同尊敬父;不尊敬子的,就是不尊敬派遣他來的父。我實實在在告訴你們:聽我的話,相信派遣我來者的,便有永生,不受審判,而已出死入生。我實實在在告訴你們:時候要到,且現在就是,死者要聽見天主子的聲音,凡聽從的,就必生存。就如父是生命之源,樣樣他也使子成為生命之源;並且賜給他行審判的權柄,因為他是人子。你們不要驚奇這事,因為時候要到,那時,凡在墳墓裏的,都要聽見他的聲音,而出來;行過善的,復活進入生命;作過惡的,復活而受審判。我由自己什麼也不能作;父怎樣告訴我,我就怎樣審判,所以我的審判是正義的,因為我不尋求我的旨意,而只尋求派遣我來者的旨意。」

—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 5:17-30

17 But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working still, and I am working.” 18 This was why the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath but also called God his Father, making himself equal with God. 19 Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever he does, that the Son does likewise. 20 For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all that he himself is doing; and greater works than these will he show him, that you may marvel. 21 For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom he will. 22 The Father judges no one, but has given all judgment to the Son, 23 that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him. 24 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me, has eternal life; he does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life. 25 “Truly, truly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. 26 For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself, 27 and has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of man. 28 Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice 29 and come forth, those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment. 30 “I can do nothing on my own authority; as I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me.

神父講道 – 四旬期第四週 (為教宗選舉祈禱) (週二) (2013年3月12日)

恭讀聖若望福音5:1-16

那時,正是猶太人的慶節,耶穌便上了耶路撒冷。在耶路撒冷靠近羊門有一個水池,希伯來語叫作貝特匝達,周圍有五個走廊。在這些走廊內,躺著許多患病的、瞎眼的、瘸腿的、痲痺的,都在等候水動。因為有天使按時下到水池中,攪動池水;水動後,第一個下去的,無論他患什麼病,必會痊癒。在那裏有一個人,患病已三十八年。耶穌看見這人躺在那裏,知道他已病了多時,就向他說:「你願意痊愈嗎?」那病人回答說:「主,我沒有人在水動的時候,把我放到水池中;我正到的時候,別人在我以前已經下去了。」耶穌向他說:「起來,拿起你的床,行走吧!」那人便立刻痊愈了,拿起自己的床,行走起來;那一天正是安息日。於是猶太人對那痊愈的人說:「今天是安息日,不許你拿床。」他回答他們說:「叫我痊愈了的那一位給我說:拿起你的床,行走吧!」他們就問他:「給你說拿起床來,而行走的那人是誰?」那痊愈的人卻不知道他是誰,因為那地方人多,耶穌已躲開了。事後耶穌在聖殿裏遇見了,他便向對說:「看,你已痊愈了,不要再犯罪,免得你遭遇更不幸的事。」那人就去告訴猶太人:使他痊愈的就是耶穌。為此猶太人便開始迫害耶穌,因為他在安息日作這樣的事。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 5:1-16

1 After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 2 Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, in Hebrew called Beth-za’tha, which has five porticoes. 3 In these lay a multitude of invalids, blind, lame, paralyzed.5 One man was there, who had been ill for thirty-eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him and knew that he had been lying there a long time, he said to him, “Do you want to be healed?” 7 The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is troubled, and while I am going another steps down before me.” 8 Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your pallet, and walk.” 9 And at once the man was healed, and he took up his pallet and walked. Now that day was the Sabbath. 10 So the Jews said to the man who was cured, “It is the Sabbath, it is not lawful for you to carry your pallet.” 11 But he answered them, “The man who healed me said to me, `Take up your pallet, and walk.'” 12 They asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, `Take up your pallet, and walk’?” 13 Now the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, as there was a crowd in the place. 14 Afterward, Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, “See, you are well! Sin no more, that nothing worse befall you.” 15 The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had healed him. 16 And this was why the Jews persecuted Jesus, because he did this on the Sabbath.
