Title: “God vs. Magic” Part 2 Text: Acts 19:17-20 FCF: We often struggle to believe that God alone is sufficient for all we need. Prop: Because God's power is greater than magic, we must fear the Lord and turn from our former ways. Scripture Intro: [Slide 1] Turn in your bible to Acts chapter 19. In a moment I'll begin reading starting in verse 11 from the English Standard Version. You can follow along in the pew bible or in whatever version you prefer. Last week we took a deep look at the events that transpire in Ephesus surrounding the use of magic, sorcery and exorcisms and how they compare to Yahweh and His power. We saw how God stooped to demonstrate His power in an unusual way in order to prove that He is more powerful than all the magic that the Ephesians were depending on. God being more powerful than everything else must lead us to trust Him and not to try to use His name for selfish ends as some kind of good luck charm or talisman. Indeed, He cannot be used in such a way, for He doesn't need us for anything and we need Him for everything. Today we will see the effect of these events on the Ephesians and even the Ephesian Christians. Their response will both prove that they thought God is more powerful than all other powers and it will give us a pattern for a couple other responses we should have to His great power. Please stand with me to give honor to and to focus on the reading of the Word of God. Invocation: Almighty God. We come today as Your dear children hoping to hear from You and Your Word. We know that we are sustained by the life-giving precepts which You have graciously given through inspiration of Your Spirit and preserved for us today. We ask that Your Spirit would be with us today as we peer into Your power and authority. We ask that You would show us Your might and that it would lead us to respond in a way that is pleasing to You. Help us Lord to grow in our faith in response to who You are. We ask this in the Son's name and by His authority and power, Amen. Transition: Let us get right to the text this morning as we seek to wrap up this narrative episode. I.) God's power is greater than magic, so we must fear the Lord and revere His name. (17) a. [Slide 2] 17 - And this became known to all the residents of Ephesus, both Jews and Greeks. i. Luke begins assessing the effect of these two episodes by looking to the city as a whole. ii. All the residents of Ephesus, both Jews and Greeks, heard about these events. iii. As is often the case in the scriptures it is ok for us to understand the word “all” not to mean all. iv. We are not doing damage to the inerrancy of scripture if we are to question whether or not Luke took a census to ensure that every single person in the city had heard about these things. v. I would say that Luke uses hyperbole as we normally do in conversation. 1. Everyone loves pizza! We might say. 2. Really? 3. Does every single person love pizza? I actually know for a fact that there are some people… if you want to call them people

This story just seems strange. If Jesus was so concerned about not offending the religious, then why does he seem to offend them every other time?  And why doesn't he provide enough Drachma coins to cover all the disciple's temple taxes?  The story gets really really interesting when you ask the question: maybe this wasn't a miracle, and maybe Jesus just isn't interested in paying the temple tax at all!

T Bone gets involved with a murder that really wasn't a murder. 

今天的經文就帶我們看到耶穌即將要到達祂旅程的終點站，那就是耶路撒冷。而且耶穌已經多次向門徒表示這裡就是祂要完成使命的地方，因此當耶穌離開耶利哥的時候，因為下一站就是耶路撒冷城。所以許多跟隨他的人就異常的興奮，因為他們認為神的國快要顯出來。 以色列人相信在救世主彌賽亞降臨的時候，這位被膏者將會審判和毀滅以色列的仇敵。彌賽亞將會解救神的子民，帶來救恩。所以門徒就以耶路撒冷城是君王的城市，是上帝立名的地方，耶穌既到那裡去，祂當然要坐上寶座，復興以色列，因為祂是基督，祂只要一到耶路撒冷，甚麼事都會好了，上帝的子民全都要得釋放，都要享用上帝的所有。 所以當耶穌越是靠近耶路撒冷，民眾越是興奮。他們似乎覺得耶穌會帶領他們去把當時壓迫以色列人的羅馬打敗。所以耶穌就必須糾正他們。耶穌就以《十錠銀子》的比喻，來打破他們這種錯誤的希望。 《十錠銀子》的比喻與馬太福音25章14-30節的《按才幹分銀子》的比喻很相像，但是意義卻不同。 耶穌說：“12 「有一個貴冑往遠方去，要得國回來， 13 便叫了他的十個僕人來，交給他們十錠（錠：原文作彌拿約銀十兩）銀子，說：『你們去做生意，直等我回來。』 ” 這裡說到：“貴胄” 這兩個字是現在比較很少用的字。“貴胄”意思是“貴族的後代”或是繼承王位的人。而這裡說到的銀子的單位：「錠」。其實在原文為彌拿（mina）。“彌拿”是希臘幣制單位，等於一百個希臘銀幣Drachma，相當於一般人一百天的工資。我們若看經文裡面有註解：錠：原文作彌拿約銀十兩 。 其實這個比喻的內容並不複雜，就是那個“貴冑”在去承接王位前，給了他的十個僕人每人相同數量的銀子，目的是要他們去做生意，等他回來再作交代。那麼十錠銀子到底值多少錢呢？一般的解經家經過計算，認為那時這麼些錢約為一般人三個月的工資。這是一大筆錢。 而但是當這個貴胄回來以後，他就讓這十個僕人來交賬。每個僕人都按著自己作生意的結果來交賬。因此，貴胄就針對僕人賺錢的結果來進行不同的處理。 從表面來看，這個比喻似乎就是要告訴門徒要努力工作，貴冑表揚勤勞的，懲罰懶惰的。但是這乃是耶穌被釘十架前講的幾個比喻，因此相信其中必有更重要的意義。這位貴冑離開家，是為了到遠方得國。 “14「他本國的人卻恨他，打發使者隨後去，說：“我們不願意這個人作我們的王。”」”其實有學者認為，耶穌說這個比喻時，是要藉此來引訴一個歷史事實，若來自耶利哥的猶太人就會更加印象深刻。因為這個王族的王宮就是設在耶利哥。 在主後約4年，當大希律駕崩以後，他把所統治的地土分別給了三個兒子。而把王宮設在耶利哥城的希律亞基佬將會繼承猶大、撒瑪利亞和以土買的地土。但是他必須去到羅馬，得到凱撒的冊封才可以合法統治。據說在他離開耶利哥的王宮時，把國家大事交給他的僕人，並且要他們經營他的財產。但是因為亞基佬生性殘暴，而且多次乾犯了聖殿大祭司的運作，所以有些猶太百姓為了反對他作王，就組團去羅馬，上告凱撒，希望可以阻止希律亞基佬得到凱撒的冊封。當然這個行動最終以失敗告終，而據說當希律亞基佬回來時立即召集他的臣僕，與他們結算他在赴羅馬期間所有經營的帳目，其中不少人受到他的懲治。而且後來他也針對這些去羅馬告狀的人進行了殘酷的報復。 當然我們不曉得耶穌是否借用這個歷史事件，但是我們可以很清楚的看到就是這個貴冑的離開是“得國”，也就是承接王位。雖然他的本國人恨他。但是他離開以後是一定會“得國”回來。那麼在他離開的這段時間，僕人就領了貴冑給的錢，貴冑“13...說：『你們去做生意，直等我回來。』”。這十個僕人，每人都得一錠，沒有人比較多也沒有人比較少，通通一樣。貴胄只留了一句話，“等我回來”。就是說，我是要回來看結果的。這十個僕人也都明白祂的意思。 當這貴冑得國回來之後，第一件事就與那些領銀子的僕人算賬，看他們的成果如何 。比喻中只是提到其中三個，那就是僕人中的第一個用一錠銀子賺了十錠，第二個也賺了五錠。這些賺了十倍和五倍利潤的僕人獲得了貴冑的稱讚，因為他們在小事上有忠心，因此把權管十座城和五座城的權力賜給他們。另外一個僕人，當貴冑與他算賬的時候，他對貴冑說：20節：“『主啊，看哪，你的一錠銀子在這裡，我把他包在手巾裡存著。” 他向主人解釋說，他之所以如此的做是因為他害怕主人，：“21 我原是怕你，因為你是嚴厲的人；沒有放下的，還要去拿；沒有種下的，還要去收。』 ”因此他為了保本為上，就原封不動的把銀子包好然後還給主人。當然他遭到主人痛斥，並把他手上的一錠銀子奪回，賜給那賺了十錠的僕人。從這個比喻中，我們可以理解到耶穌的心意。因著越靠近耶路撒冷，門徒和跟隨主的人就以為耶穌即將去“得國”，也就是把以色列的仇敵趕出去，祂在耶路撒冷做王。耶穌就在此說明，他確實是去耶路撒冷建立神國，成就神應許給人的救恩。但是這一去並不是一個結局，乃是整個救恩計劃的開始。神的國要在耶路撒冷建立，直到祂在回來。 因此這個比喻就說出了貴冑即將去得國，而且比喻中的貴冑最終是“得國”當王而回來的。這裡就暗示了祂將會離去，但也說明了祂會再臨。接著耶穌藉著這比喻更是說明了，那些僕人的責任。貴冑離開不是讓他們空手等候，而是給了他們每人一錠銀子，大家都一樣。但是貴冑是要求他們去做生意，回來時他要算賬。因此回來算賬時，賺了錢的僕人被貴冑稱讚。這一錠銀子對主人來說，是個小事。但是因為僕人忠心，在他不在的時候仍然努力賺錢。他就賜給他們更多的權力去管理大的事，那就是管理城市的權柄。所以這裡很清楚的告訴我們，貴冑不在乎錢的多少，他只在乎僕人是否忠心。貴冑所謂的忠心，就是在主人不在的時候，仍然努力勤勞工作，為主人賺錢。 至於那個把錢包起來的僕人，貴冑對他所作所為非常憤怒，而且他還為自己找藉口說，是因為主人很嚴厲，所以他才出此下策。他所作的一切似乎就是想藉著主人的嚴厲來找藉口。因此主人責備他：“『你這惡僕，我要憑你的口定你的罪。你既知道我是嚴厲的人，沒有放下的，還要去拿，沒有種下的，還要去收， 23 為什麼不把我的銀子交給銀行，等我來的時候，連本帶利都可以要回來呢？』”。主人確實的很嚴厲，但是從主人對第一和第二個僕人的回應和他對這個第三個僕人的責備中，我們可以知道主人的習性。首先我們知道貴冑是個賞罰分明的主人。他其實不在乎錢的多少，對他來說，這是小事，而且之後他也沒有把錢要回來，反而給了僕人。第二他對僕人的要求其實不高。從他對第三個僕人的責備中，我們知道，他提議把錢放在銀行裡面生利息，那就表示只要有一點利潤他也是接受。他並不在乎錢的多少，他在乎的是僕人是否忠心。但是第三個僕人，就以貴冑是個嚴厲的人為藉口，所以就連這種零風險低利潤的方法也不去做，反而把錢放在手帕中，等主人回來。因此他被主人責備為“惡僕”。他就面對貴冑對他的懲罰，那就是把他有的拿過來給那個賺最多的。然後主說，“26凡有的還要加給他，沒有的，連他所有的，也要奪過來”。最後，對於那些百般阻攔貴冑去“得國”的人，貴冑說：“27 至於我那些仇敵，不要我作他們王的，把他們拉來，在我面前殺了吧！』」 ” 耶穌藉著這段經文來向跟隨祂的人說明，到了耶路撒冷後，祂即將會離去。祂離去是為了“得國”，而不是在耶路撒冷“建國”。所以跟從祂的人就要明白，在祂不在的時候仍然要繼續努力為祂賺取利潤。當然這邊的利潤並不是說財富上的利潤，而是在福音的工作上。每人都領一錠銀子，就表示這個福音是僕人都會被賜下，但不是讓僕人把這個銀子拿來自我享受或是藏起來。而是要拿來做生意，賺錢。而主回來會算賬，首先跟僕人算的賬就是他們賺了多少，因為多與少的利潤就定了他們即將要得到賞賜的高低。而那些沒有為主賺取利潤的僕人，將會被責備，而且所有的銀子會被奪去，然後加在賺最多銀子的僕人上。第二，主也會跟另外一群人，也就是主的仇敵算賬。他們因為攔阻主做王，所以當主“得國”降臨時，他們就會被拉出來，在主面前被殺。 這比喻其實對當時的門徒和猶太人來說意義不一。對門徒耶穌要求忠心，對猶太人，耶穌警告說，那些攔阻祂的人即將會面對審判。 路加福音19章11節-27節 11 眾人正在聽見這些話的時候，耶穌因為將近耶路撒冷，又因他們以為神的國快要顯出來，就另設一個比喻，說： 12 「有一個貴冑往遠方去，要得國回來， 13 便叫了他的十個僕人來，交給他們十錠（錠：原文作彌拿約銀十兩）銀子，說：『你們去做生意，直等我回來。』 14 他本國的人卻恨他，打發使者隨後去，說：『我們不願意這個人作我們的王。』 15 他既得國回來，就吩咐叫那領銀子的僕人來，要知道他們作生意賺了多少。 16 頭一個上來，說：『主啊，你的一錠銀子已經賺了十錠。』 17 主人說：『好！良善的僕人，你既在最小的事上有忠心，可以有權柄管十座城。』 18 第二個來，說：『主啊！你的一錠銀子，已經賺了五錠。』 19 主人說：『你也可以管五座城。』 20 又有一個來說：『主啊，看哪，你的一錠銀子在這裡，我把他包在手巾裡存著。 21 我原是怕你，因為你是嚴厲的人；沒有放下的，還要去拿；沒有種下的，還要去收。』 22 主人對他說：『你這惡僕，我要憑你的口定你的罪。你既知道我是嚴厲的人，沒有放下的，還要去拿，沒有種下的，還要去收， 23 為什麼不把我的銀子交給銀行，等我來的時候，連本帶利都可以要回來呢？』 24 就對旁邊站著的人說：『奪過他這一錠來，給那有十錠的。』 25 他們說：『主啊，他已經有十錠了。』 26 主人說：『我告訴你們，凡有的，還要加給他；沒有的，連他所有的也要奪過來。 27 至於我那些仇敵，不要我作他們王的，把他們拉來，在我面前殺了吧！』」 靈程反思： “你們去做生意”一直到耶穌回來，這是什麼意思呢？ 思想上帝所交付給你的“銀子”是什麼？你如何使用來成為他人的祝福？

So, what do you think Greece should do about their economic woes? Maybe they were happier when they did not use the EURO. It may not be such a wonderful thing to ‘play with the big dogs’. So much advice is being sent their way… digital money, print up EUROs, go back to the Drachma… […]

With Greece voting “no” on July 5th, Greece now defaults on all of its debt. Although the Greek government states that the vote strengthens its position to bargain with the rest of the Eurozone, the Germans are unlikely to make further concessions. In order to keep funding their government, Greece may have to reintroduce the Drachma or some form of I.O.U.’s.
