智慧的花束──境相轉移

● Great cultural changes begin in affectation and end in routine. Jacques Barzun
鉅大的文化變遷因熱情而起動,因僵化而停擺。

● In human affairs, the best stimulus for running ahead is to have something we must run from. Eric Hoffer
人世間,有時刺激人向前快跑的最好方法,就是面臨非躲不可的事情。

● Don’t go through life, grow through life. Eric Butterworth
不要虛渡人生,要在人生中成長。

● Where there is an open mind, there will always be a frontier. Charles F. Kettering
只要有一個遼闊的思維,就一定可以開闢一片疆土。

● The hearts of the great can be changed. Homer
偉人的心思從不墨守成規。

● Change is hard because people overestimate the value of what they have — and underestimate the value of what they may gain by giving that up. James A. Belasco
人們很難改變,因為他們太高估自己目前所擁有的, 卻低估了改變之後的獲益。

● Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is–his good, pleasing and perfect will.
不要效法這個世界,只要心意更新而變化,叫你們察驗何為神的善良、純全可喜悅的旨意。 羅12:2

● Neither do men pour new wine into old wineskins. if they do, the skins will burst, the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”
也沒有人把新酒裝在舊皮袋裡。若是這樣,皮袋就裂開,酒漏出來,連皮袋也壞了。惟獨把新酒裝在新皮袋裡,兩樣就都保全了。 太9:17

● But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.
但我們既然在捆我們的律法上死了,現今就脫離了律法。叫我們服事主,要按著心靈的新樣,不按著儀文的舊樣。 羅7:6

● Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!
若有人在基督裡,他就是新造的人;舊事已過,都變成新的了。
林後5:17

● To be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
又要將你們的心志改換一新,並且穿上新人。這新人是照著神的形像造的,有真理的仁義和聖潔。 弗4:23-24

● So the law was put in charge to lead us to Christ that we might be justified by faith. Now that faith has come, we are not longer under the supervision of the law.
這樣,律法是我們的訓蒙師傅,引我們到基督那裡使我們因信稱義。但這因信得救的理既然來到,我們從此就不在師傅的手下了。 加3:24-25
