WHAT IS THE GOOD NEWS?
finding Jesus
God created us to know Him and to find our greatest joy and purpose in Him. But we have all turned away from Him, choosing to live our own way apart from Him. This is what the Bible calls sin. Sin separates us from God and results in the punishment of death and judgment.
Yet because of His love, God sent His Son Jesus Christ to bear our sin on the cross. Jesus never sinned, yet He willingly died in our place and took our punishment. But that’s not all. God raised Jesus to life, conquering death and giving us new life.
This is the good news of Christianity. When we repent and by faith rely on Jesus to save us, we receive God’s forgiveness and eternal life. There are no works we can do to earn salvation or forgiveness — Jesus alone brings us back into a right relationship with God.
福音的好消息 - 认识耶稣
神创造世人，让我们有一颗想要亲近祂的心，让我们在祂里面找到了人生最终的意义和真正的喜乐。然而我们都离弃了神，将祂从我们的生活中摘除，这就是圣经中所提到的「罪」。罪使我们与神之间有了隔阂，导致了审判和死亡的惩罚。
因为神爱世人，祂差派了祂的儿子耶稣基督降世，为了我们的罪上十字架。但耶稣是无罪的，祂从不犯罪，却愿意为了我们受死，代替我们接受审判和死亡的代价。不仅如此，神更是使耶稣复活，战胜了死亡并让我们重获新生。
这就是福音，属于每一位基督徒的好消息。当我们悔改，信靠耶稣，我们便得到了神的宽恕和永生。这份救赎的恩典不是靠我们的努力而来，唯有通过耶稣，我们才能恢复与神友好的关系。

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A CHRISTIAN?
following Jesus
When we trust in Jesus as our Lord and Saviour, we no longer live for ourselves but for Him. He empowers us by His Spirit to live a transformed life.
As His followers, we will have great joy as we walk in new life, but it won’t always be easy or without challenges. Yet God assures us that He is with us always and He gives us a full and meaningful life! He also calls us to share this good news with others so that they would follow Him too.
Jesus doesn’t just save us from sin so we can get a ticket to heaven; He saves us for a far greater purpose — to know Him, love Him and be His blessing to the world around us.
作基督徒的涵义 - 跟随耶稣
当我们接受耶稣为我们的救主，我们不再是为自己而活，我们是为了耶稣而活。祂借由圣灵引领我们走向一条崭新的道路。
跟随耶稣会让我们的心满是喜乐，但这并不意味着我们的生活从此就再也没有荆棘。神清楚地告诉我们，无论何时，祂都与我们同在，祂都会给予我们一个丰盛、有意义的人生。祂也呼召我们把这份好消息分享出去，让更多的人来跟随祂。
耶稣的救赎并非是天堂的入门票，祂的救赎有着更重大的意义——让我们认识祂、爱祂，成为祂祝福其他人的器皿。
HOW DO I BECOME A CHRISTIAN?
receiving Jesus
If you want to receive Jesus into your life to be your Lord and Saviour, here’s how to do so:
Acknowledge you’re a sinner who needs God
Admit in your heart that you have sinned against God, and there’s nothing — no good works or accomplishments — that you can do to earn salvation.
Believe in Jesus Christ’s finished work on the cross
Trust that Jesus Christ died on the cross for you, took your punishment for sin, and you are now forgiven.
Confess Jesus Christ as Lord & Saviour
You can say this prayer below to tell God what’s in your heart. He doesn’t just hear your words; He hears what’s in your heart.
Dear Lord Jesus, I admit that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself. I believe that You died to take the punishment for my sin, and that You rose from the dead and are alive today. Thank You for loving me, saving me and giving me new life. I accept You as my Lord and Saviour. From now on, help me to know You, love You, and follow Your plan for my life. Amen!
If you’ve prayed the prayer, or if you have questions about Jesus or Christianity, drop us a message so we can connect with you and help you in your next steps.
如何成为基督徒 - 接受耶稣
如果您想邀请耶稣进入您的生命，接受祂为您的救主，方法如下：
承认您是一名需要神的罪人
在心中承认自己是个罪人、背弃了神，承认自己无法通过自身的努力或成就得着救赎。
相信耶稣上十字架完成了救赎
相信耶稣为了自己死在了十字架上，代替自己付出了罪的代价，以至我能得宽恕。
承认耶稣为您的救主
按照以下的祷告文将心中所想告诉神。祂不单单听见你口中的话语也能听见你没说出口的心声。
亲爱的主耶稣，我承认自己是个罪人，单凭自己的力量无法得到救赎。我相信你为了我受死，替我付出了罪的代价，也相信耶稣你死而复活，直至今日依然活着。谢谢你爱我、救我，并给予我全新的生命。我接受你成为我的救主，请从即日起，帮助我认识你、爱你、跟随你的旨意活出一个全新的生命。阿门。
若您做了决定跟随耶稣，或有任何关于耶稣或基督教的疑问，请您与我们联系。我们非常愿意与您倾谈，在跟随耶稣这条道路上给予您帮助。
EXPLORE FAITH
Whether you’re a seeker or new believer, come discover the Christian faith for yourself.
Christianity Explored is a 7-session course that’s focused on the essential claims of the Christian faith and the person at the centre of it — Jesus Christ. Who is Jesus? Why did he come? What is being a Christian like? What does any of this have to do with me? We will dig into these questions as we look at an eyewitness account of Jesus’ life. During the course, there will also be time and space to ponder on the big questions of life.
Each session includes a short discussion of a Bible passage, a video to watch, a chance to discuss what you’ve heard, and a Q&A. Discussions will be in smaller groups. Ask any question you like, or just listen in to what others have to say. Come for the first session and if you find it helpful, then keep coming!
when does Christianity Explored begin?
Our next season is planned for mid April – June 2023. Sign up to join us here!
