今天可能是我们教会成立这十七年以来所面对最大的挑战。对有些还不知情的弟兄姐妹，我们教会至今已经有五宗武汉病毒的病例。可能这时候，全国都会在关注我们的教会，很快的我们也要面对家人或亲友的寻问，再就是我们还有一位在加护病房的姐妹，正处于危险之中。当试炼临近我们，苦难不在是纸上谈兵的事情，那时我们要怎么面对呢？当然，没有人希望不好的事在自己身上发生，更不希望承受惧怕和压力的感受。特别我们在新加坡这安逸的社会，信徒都不想落入危难。当我们每天看着中国武汉病毒的疫情继续发展时，然后新加坡只是三十多宗病案，我们大致上都是在这问题的远处观望。但是当这三十多宗的病情中，有三宗病案是在我们当中发生，那时我们心里的惧怕就不如同一般的了。可能做父母的马上会为自己的小孩担心，或是目前有点感冒征兆的人开始为自己或自己的家人担心，或者有的总是感到不知所措。这些心理的交战都是很真实的，这也是人性自然的反应。但我们乃要晓得在这样的情况中，我们怨不得任何人。我们能在这时候将问题指向任何大陆的弟兄姐妹吗？或是因焦虑将矛头指向在我们当中患病的弟兄姐妹吗？我们知道这绝对不来自主的教导。主的应许告诉我们说：我们晓得万事都互相效力，叫爱神的人得益处，就是按他旨意被召的人《罗8:28》。当以色列民全然被巴比伦掳掠时，许多家庭因此破裂、妻离子散、圣殿被拆毁，神还是差派耶利米先知对他们说：我知道我向你们所怀的意念是赐平安的意念，不是降灾祸的意念，要叫你们末后有指望《耶29:11》。我们都清楚知道初代教会信徒所遭遇的是何等的苦难，但他们总不因试炼而沮丧，或是怨天尤人。如果这个苦难是主所许可的，我们能逃避吗？我们能怪罪与任何人吗？确实，在这时候能为主的教会祷告的人真是有福！他们不但是属于天国的人，也是求神荣耀之事的人。试问有哪个主的教会不是在患难中成长的？其实就是在这样的患难，我们知道我们虽活在世界却不属世界。我们也会确认得到神在各样患难中的扶持。我们也会明白爱弟兄与爱教会是必有挑战与牺牲的。其实，就在我们教会继续向更多破碎的人伸出援手，且服侍世界各地更多的群体与教会时，邪恶的权势前来攻击我们。但我们必要确信在上帝的帮助之下，我们将看到上帝自己在我们的个人生命里成就更美好的事。因此，请大家站好岗位，守望与恒切祷告，自己身上常带着耶稣的死，使耶稣的生也显明在我们身上《林后4:10》。在此也继续为各教会祷告祈求，且愿其他教会若可以，继续要相聚。我们的考验比起初代教会信徒所受的实在算不得什么，但这终究是一项考验。让我们因能配得一同经过这试炼而感恩。

Today is probably the biggest challenge our church has faced in our seventeen years since we started. For some brothers and sisters who do not know, our church has so far had five cases of the Wuhan coronavirus. Maybe at this time, the whole country will pay attention to our church. Soon we will also face the inquiries of family members or relatives and friends. Also, one of our sisters who is infected is now still in the intensive care unit, and still considered to be in a critical stage. When trials are so near us, suffering is not a matter of mere paper talk, how do we face suffering at such times? Of course, no one hopes that bad things will come upon themselves, let alone having to bear the burden of fear and stress. Especially in our comfortable society in Singapore, believers do not want to land into danger. When we watch the epidemic of the Wuhan Coronavirus in China continues to develop every day, with Singapore having about 40 medical cases, we generally just view this problem from a distance.  But when five of these 40 cases occurred among us, then our fears are no longer just general fears. Perhaps, parents are immediately worried about their children, or people who are having a slight cold now are worried about themselves or their families, or some are at a loss of what to do. These psychological battles are very real, and these are also natural reactions of humans. But we need to know that in such a situation we cannot blame anyone. Can we point the problem to any of our brethren from China at this time? Or is it because of anxiety that is causing us to point fingers at our brethren who are sick among us? We must know that these are definitely not teachings of the Lord. The promise of the Lord tells us: And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose <Ro 8:28>. When the Israelites were taken captive by Babylon, many families were torn apart, their wives and children were separated, and the temple was destroyed. God sent the prophet Jeremiah to say to them, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” We all know clearly the sufferings of the early church believers, but they were never disheartened by trials, or put all blame on others but themselves. If this suffering is permitted by the Lord, can we escape? Can we blame anyone? Indeed, blessed are those who can pray for the Lord's church at this time! Not only do they belong to the kingdom of heaven, but they also seek God's glory in all things. Think about it, which church of the Lord did not grow up in adversity? In fact, it is in such a tribulation that we know that although we live in the world, we do not belong to the world. We can also confirm God's support in every affliction. We will also understand that loving brethren and the church entail challenges and sacrifices. In fact, as our church continues to reach out to more broken people and serve more communities and churches around the world, evil forces of powers come to attack us. But we must truly believe that with God's help, we will see that God Himself accomplishes greater things in our individual lives. Therefore, everyone, please stand firm in your positions, be watchful and devote ourselves to prayers. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body <2 Co 4:10>. At this time, let’s also continue to pray and intercede for the various churches, and hope that other churches will continue to meet if they can. Our test is nothing compared to what the early church believers suffered, but it is ultimately still a test. Let us be thankful for being worthy to go through this trial together.
