即或不然的信心 The ‘Even if He Does Not’ Kind of Faith
但以理三友面對族歧視的壓力, 信仰的壓力與生命的壓力時，他們以不必回答的信心，即便如此的信心與即或不然的信心去面對。我們可能沒有機會面對火窰的試驗, 但我們對信仰的堅持會成為別人的祝福, 因為他們將會從我們身上認識這位偉大獨一的真神。
Faced with a choice to give up their faith or face execution, Daniel’s three friends remained faithful to God no matter what. This week, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung urges us to persevere in the faith so that our lives can be a blessing and a reflection of the only true and great God to others.
