敬拜〔三〕

敬拜的「觀眾」論 (續)

神學家Søren Kierkegaard提出用「戲劇」(Drama)這比喻來表達敬拜其實是有他的限制(Limitation)。
因為當我們話上帝就是那「最要緊的觀眾」(Critical Theatregoer),
而我們會眾就是這場「戲劇」的演員(actors)時。
亦即是話,
如果我們在這場「敬拜戲劇」裹不是在作這場「戲劇」的演員(actors)時,
我們其實已選擇離開了這場「敬拜戲劇」了!
可不可以仍然話自己是「觀眾」呢?
不能,因為這場「敬拜戲劇」是為了那「最要緊的觀眾」而上演的。
這也是用「戲劇」這比喻來表達敬拜的限制(Limitation)了。

天使、魔鬼、世人在觀看嗎?他們是「觀眾」?
天使、魔鬼、世人在觀看,但並不是「觀眾」,
他們並沒有被invite成為「觀眾」!
其實這也是用「戲劇」這比喻來表達敬拜的限制(Limitation)了。

敬拜〔二〕

敬拜的「觀眾」論

有很多人都把敬拜/崇拜理解為一場「戲劇」(Drama)。
神學家Søren Kierkegaard
早在十九世紀初已經提出用這比喻來表達敬拜最為合適。

他提出:其實是上帝,並不是會眾,是這場敬拜的「觀眾」。
上帝就是那「最要緊的觀眾」(Critical Theatregoer),
牧者和敬拜領袖就是激勵者,喚起者(prompters),
而我們會眾就是這場「戲劇」的演員(actors)。

我想,陳康博士「神是整個祟拜中惟一的觀眾」之概念也是從Kierkegaard的觀念引發而來的!

其實這個概念並沒有問題,
因為這個概念的框架是以所有參與大公崇拜的參與者為出發點。
所有到來的敬拜者就是要為那「最要緊的觀眾」(Critical Theatregoer)上演一場「敬拜戲劇」。
所以,「戲劇」演員們的感受就不再重要了。
因為我們是這場「敬拜戲劇」的演員,
我們是要以整場「敬拜戲劇」的完美性為大前提。
上帝,那「最要緊的觀眾」(Critical Theatregoer),
能夠在這場「敬拜戲劇」得著榮耀就成為重點了!
自己的主觀意見往往成為整場「敬拜戲劇」的敗筆之處。

敬拜〔一〕

敬拜的觀眾

敬拜的對象是上帝自己,
這是我們不能偏離的前設。
但是我的問題是,
是否就只有上帝是這場敬拜的「觀眾」呢?

我們的對象是明確的,
但是當我們討論到這場敬拜的「觀眾」時,
我們便會發現事情並不是這樣的簡單了!

你又有什麼想發呢?敬請留言。

待續…

我也不知道為什麼…

我也不知道為什麼…

時間總是不夠用的!

每當我想靜心的細想一下我要做的事情,

我也不知道為什麼,總是會有些東西來把你忙碌得很!

上帝,求你幫助我…

我知道你的愛並沒有改變!

有一天

有一天…
午飯時…
獨自一人…
思緒著什麼似的…
不自覺地…
來到公眾市場…

吃午飯吧…
仍然在思緒著什麼似的…
有什麼可以送給我的愛妻呢?

雖然她不是什麼都擁有…
但感謝神的恩典…
她並不缺乏…
有什麼呢能令她開心呢?

在買飯盒時…
我細望我的錢包…
有一個兩元…
心想…
不如這樣吧…
在找換銀錢時…
我不自覺的多換一個兩元…

要吃飯盒嗎?
不是…
還有下一站…
是公司嗎?
公司並不是我的下一站呢…

不自覺的,我已到了目的地…
我禱告…
神哪,求你幫我,成完全我吧!我想…

但一轉念…
我怎可以這樣作…
要上帝成就我想祂成就的事…
噢!不可以…

但又轉念…
那麼聖經中的那個外邦婦人…
為著她深愛的女兒…
雖然被耶穌當面的拒絕…
為了她女兒…
她仍然的在逼切的追問…
鍥而不捨…
耶穌給她的信打動便給她的女兒醫治…
難道我不也可以這樣的越過界線的向上帝祈求嗎!

禱告之間…
我已到了商場的門口…
遠遠的看著我的目標…
有幾個小朋友高興的從那裡離開…
他們看似帶著什麼什麼離開似的…

我繼續的禱告…
神哪,求你給我愛妻想要的…
說時遲,那時快…
一個兩元已進入了大肚子裡…
咑呃…
清晰的落地聲清楚的聽到…
噢…
很漂亮…
但不是我愛妻要的那一個…




















還有一個兩元,不是嗎?
我看看大肚子…
只好再入一個兩元進去…
咑呃…
一樣清晰的聲音…
噢…
啊…
呀…
呃…
呵…
啞…
是他…
真的是他…
我愛妻想要的他…




















上帝!你真的是超級大能!

無論多麼的微小的事情…
一切還是在你手中!

就是那一天…
我獨自一人…

就是那一天…
我來到公眾市場買飯盒…

就是那一天…
我多換一個兩元…

就是那一天…
那幾個小朋友,在我之先的到抵那大肚子,高興的玩著…

就是那一天…
你給我勇氣去多試一次…

就是那一天…
你樣我得到愛妻想要的禮物…

就是那一天…
你樣我再一次經歷禱告的能力…

就是那一天…
你樣我認清是你在獎管一切…

就是那一天…
你樣我知道你對我們的恩情是何等的深,何等的大…

就是那一天…
你樣我親眼看見你…

就是那一天…
你再一次呼召我來跟隨你…

雖然是極度不配…
但就是你的恩典,叫我,來跟隨你…

愛妻常言道:
如果不是在大肚子內出來的,
就沒有意義了!

上帝:
如果不是出於自己情願的跟隨,
也就沒有意義了!

主啊,我願意…
我知道自己的軟弱…
地上的物質…
世上的名利…
我常常為了很多我自己的事思前想後…
但你向我說:我的恩典夠你用!
我願意,我真的很願意的跟隨你!
求主你用我有限的生命…
感謝你…
這一切都是…

恩典!

Dr Philip Chan ...

Finally, I've a chance to meet Dr Philip Chan AGAIN. He is one of the most famous Musician / Conductor in Chinese Christian Community.

I still remember that day ...
About 10 years ago ...
Saturday afternoon ...
Saturday Choir Workshop ...
I'm impressed with his musical sense ...

But not him ...
He picked on ME :(
That's the first time I met him ...

Don't get me wrong ...
I don't hate him ...
I just don't like him ...
Well ... there's a different ...

After all these years, I met him again. He probably didn't recognize me. I didn't recognize him as well. He looks too slim to me. Very interesting, I don't know why I have that image of him being OVERWEIGH!

I didn't talk to him personally ...
But I did talk to him thro' Joyce ...
I enjoy listening to Joyce's sharing ...
I learn a lot from her ...
I'm sure she learned a lot from Philip as well ...

God uses Joyce as a tool to teach me music ...
God uses Philip as a tool to teach Joyce Music ...
God uses someone as a tool to teach Philip Music ...

Thank You, Joyce ...
Thank You, Philip ...
Thank You, Someone ...
Thank You, Lord ...

我愛妳

在不多的事情上,
我為妳作了少許;
妳…
卻在許多的事情上,
為我作了很多;

在不多的事情上,
我向妳表達我對妳的愛;
妳…
卻在許多的事情上,
滿懷情意的抱緊我,愛慕我;

四年前的今日,
我…
向妳說愛妳…
四年後的今日,
我仍然堅守我愛妳的成諾!

我知道我的有限,
並不可能做到上帝對我們的愛一樣,
但是我真的願意,
為妳,就只是妳,
獻上我的一切,
就算是自己的生命,
也會獻上為妳!

我愛妳…
我要以永遠的愛愛妳!

Which theologian are you?

Surprise! Surprise ... I thought I would be John Calvin, but I end up closer to Anselm. I don't know him well. I should work harder on my HIST 502 @ Regent! :P



You scored as Anselm. Anselm is the outstanding theologian of the medieval period.He sees man's primary problem as having failed to render unto God what we owe him, so God becomes man in Christ and gives God what he is due. You should read 'Cur Deus Homo?'

Wonders ...

Sharing a wonder is not easy ...

It requires a sense of engagement and a sense of "being there" ...

"Being There???!" ...

I don't like it!! So many uncertainties ...

Well ... I know, I know. it definitely requires courage ...

I just feel very uneasy ...

To be honest ... maybe I just want to be in control ...

You know, I've my comfort Zone ...

Ohh ... yes ... I just don't want to take risk?


See ,,, it's just difficult to share a wonder ...

It really requires a sense of engagement and a sense of "being there" ...

Oh yes ... there's risk, but you know what ... it's a WONDER ...

What am I living for?

Lately, I've been thinking a lot about my career direction and my priority in life. It is just overwhelming. Oh yeah, I want to achieve more in my career to glorify God! Well ... deep down in my heart I know what I want ... wealth, status, luxury lives ... I don't know. I just don't like it in me! I ask myself, is that all I really want to achieve with my life? What am I living for ...
