Started in 1897, Foochow Methodist Church is the second oldest church in the Chinese Annual Conference of the Methodist Church in Singapore. Through the years, we have witnessed and experienced God’s faithfulness, grace and work in and through her. We warmly invite you to be a part of this family and story He is weaving right here and now.
Visit us at our Sunday worship services that are available in Foochow, Mandarin, Tamil and English. As God leads you, come participate in our outreach programs such as tuition for children, food distribution for the needy, outreach to migrant workers and activities for senior citizens.
For families with young and older children, we have age appropriate programs for your children and teenagers. Furthermore, we are just a few minutes walk from the Little India MRT station.
Rooting ourselves in the Bible and Jesus Christ, we seek to learn and grow in our faith, as a result bearing lasting fruit, being salt and light of the world.
(Matthew 5:13-14).

路加福音 Luke 9:18-27 人就是赚得全世界,却丧失了自己,或赔上自己,有什么益处呢?For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself? - 路加福音 Luke 9:25 如果你刚刚看到耶稣用五个饼两条鱼喂饱五千人,你会说耶稣是谁?当神迹之后主耶稣问门徒【众人说我是谁?】门徒纷纷回答说:【是施洗的约翰……以利亚……古时的一个先知。】(18-19节)透过门徒的口让我们看到世人对耶稣身份的认知,是停在祂所做的事上。就如我们在传福音时也会碰到,有人会把耶稣与他们所认知的好人、伟人相提并论,告诉你信什么都是一样。 那你要怎么告诉他呢?这是耶稣向门徒发出的第二个问题【你们说我是谁?】(20节)今天如果耶稣也这样问你,你怎么说?因为「有人说」不算,「你们说」才算。主耶稣是亲自与每个人建立关系,我们对耶稣的认识才是最真实、最有说服力。 面对耶稣的询问,只有彼得说祂【是上帝所立的基督。】(20节)在其他福音书中记载彼得的回答不是出于自己,而是从神而来的启示(太16:17)。因此耶稣一再的嘱咐门徒不要把祂的身份告诉人,因为门徒对基督的身份和使命了解并不深入。一个自己没有经历的人,又怎么跟人传讲基督呢? 在路加的记载之下,耶稣的身份是与祂的受苦、受死和背十架连在一起。当耶稣说完自己的使命之后又对门徒说【若有人要跟从我,就当舍己,天天背起他的十字架来跟从我。】(23节)原来跟随耶稣不是只求吃饼得饱,病得医治,不同的需要得着满足,而是要背十架来跟随。 十字架在古罗马时代是死刑具,当犯人背起他的十字架走向刑场时,他所走的是一条不归路,是充满凌辱和被人耻笑,也是一条通往死亡的路。所以对基督徒而言,背十字架就是预备着面对拒绝和死亡。在辅类福音书中,只有路加在背十架的概念上加上 *天天* 一词,这是主耶稣对做门徒的要求,门徒生活不是周末的娱乐活动,而是一种生活方式和委身。曾有人问布道家穆迪:要跟从主,非得撇弃世界不可吗?穆迪回答说,如果你真心跟从主,世界会自动撇弃你。 今天在我们的信仰旅程中,我们是跟着世界走,还是跟从主耶稣,只要看我们的生命是为了迎合世界,还是迎合上帝的心意。真正的门徒是自己先去背十架,然后才传扬为我们背十架的救主。 祷告: 为我们背十架的主邀请我们以同样的方式来跟从祂。求主赐给我力量紧紧地跟随,不是为了彰显自己,乃是让基督的生命彰显出来,使众人看到十字架的爱,而愿意跟随主。奉主耶稣得胜之名祷告,阿们! #methodistchurch #foochowmethodistchurch #Sermon #devotion #dailydevotion #scripture #Luke #profit #man #gains #whole #world #forfeit #himself

路加福音 Luke 9:1-17 耶稣拿着这五个饼和两条鱼,望着天祝福,擘开,递给门徒,摆在众人面前。所有的人都吃,并且吃饱了。And taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven and said a blessing over them. Then he broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd. And they all ate and were satisfied. - 路加福音 Luke 9:16-17 根据2024年的最新估计,全球基督徒人口约为26.3亿,佔全球总人口约 33%,仍然是全球最大的宗教(* 此统计包括天主教与东正教)。为着这许多进入主耶稣羊圈的人, 包括你我,感恩之余,我们不禁要想到这一切的起点——那是主耶稣两千多年前道成肉身,那是今天的灵修经文中提到的:“耶稣叫齐了十二使徒,给他们能力和权柄制伏一切的鬼,医治疾病, 又差遣他们宣讲 上帝的国,医治病人……于是使徒出去,走遍各乡传福音,到处治病。”(1-2,6节)。 耶稣差遣他们去宣传上帝国的道,医治病人,让他们体会弥赛亚的工作。十二门徒出去向选民宣告上帝国的临到,让上帝的百姓作出选择——“凡不接待你们的,你们离开那城的时候,要跺掉你们脚上的尘土……“(5节)。”跺掉你们脚上的尘土“意思是把拒绝上帝国的选民当作与上帝国无关的外邦人。耶稣嘱咐他们,” “途中什么都不要带“ (3节);他们的宣教旅程所需,上帝都有预备。 主耶稣和十二门徒带着权柄宣讲上帝国的福音,引起众人对祂身分的猜测(7-8节),也引起希律的注意。希律道出自己的困惑:“约翰我已经斩了,但这是什么人?……”(9节)于是希律想要见耶稣。按人的眼光行事,君王愿意接见传道人,不正是传福音的好机会吗?然而,主耶稣却不愿意见希律,他带了门徒往伯赛大去——对耶稣的这回应,我们感到纳闷吗?求圣灵引导我们思想,学习耶稣做事的法则。 除了耶稣复活之外,“五饼二鱼“的神迹是唯一一个四福音里都记载的神迹。这表明这个神迹对于初期教会具有特别的意义。那地方是伯赛大附近的郊野。这里离附近的乡村其实并不太远,走路回迦百农也不到两个小时。众人是可以回家吃饭,甚至,少吃一顿也没问题。但是,主耶稣却说:”你们给他们吃吧“(13节)。门徒说:“我们不过有五个饼、两条鱼,若不去为这许多人买食物就不够。”耶稣似乎是强人所难。但是,把有限的交给耶稣,最终,众人都吃饱了,门徒把剩下的零碎装满了十二篮子——比起初摆上的五饼二鱼多得多。 祷告: 亲爱的天父,感谢祢赐下独生爱子耶稣。祂把天国的福音带到世上,祂把属天的能力彰显。祂让我们看到祢里面的丰盛:普普通通、毫不起眼的五饼二鱼在祂手里能喂饱五千人!求祢帮助孩子也把有限的自己全然交在主手中!奉靠主耶稣基督得胜的尊名祈求。阿门! #methodistchurch #foochowmethodistchurch #Sermon #devotion #dailydevotion #scripture #Luke #fish #loaves #broke #blessing #crowd #ate #satisfied #disciles
