烦恼:从人丁兴旺到众口难调(v1) • … when the disciples were increasing in number, a complaint by the Hellenists arose against the Hebrews because … • … 门徒增多。有说希腊话的犹太人向希伯来人发怨言,因为…
规则:越打越成交 一个也不少(v2a) • 十二使徒叫众门徒来 … • And the twelve summoned the full number of the disciples … 全体使徒 跟 全体会众 共同面对 不离不弃是属灵生命成长的前提
处方1:从孤胆英雄到人尽其才(v2b-4) • …选出七个有好名声、被圣灵充满、智慧充足的人 … 派他们管理…我们要专心以祈祷传道为事。 • … pick out from among you seven men of good repute, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we will appoint to this duty … we will devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word.”

不同的职份,相同的“素质”(品格)! Different position, same qualification. • 當從你們中間選出七個 有好名聲、 滿有聖靈和 智慧, 我們派他們管理這事。(RCUV)
处方2:从袖手旁观到水涨船高(v 3,5-6) • …(you) pick out from among you… pleased the whole gathering, and they chose… These they set before the apostles, and they prayed and laid their hands on them. • …(你们)当从你们中间选出…大众都喜悦这话,就拣选了… 叫他们站在使徒面前。使徒(?)(他们)祷告了,就(他们)按手在他们头上。 使徒和全体会众的委任、支持和承担。
结果:共同领受成长的喜乐(v7) • And the word of God continued to increase, and the number … multiplied greatly… priests became obedient … • 神的道兴旺起来 … 门徒数目加增 …许多祭司信从
