On Sunday, October 25, 2026, Pacific Time, a pastor at Ximen Church delivered a message on the heart. He began with worshippers whose lips moved, whose songs were correct, and who took part in the whole process, yet whose hearts were far away. He then turned to Jesus’ teaching on lust in the heart, and to the twelve disciples who had followed for three years yet still did not understand what Jesus was doing, because their hearts had grown hard. He gave the example of Ananias and Sapphira lying in the middle of the Pentecost revival, showing that even amid a great outpouring of the Holy Spirit the heart can still be persuaded to deceive. He then said: only God can do the work of the heart; He does it best when a person continually places himself before Him; prayer is the main way the Holy Spirit changes the heart, sometimes only a sigh.
美西时间2026年10月25日主日，西门教会的牧师讲了一篇关于“心”的信息。他从敬拜者嘴唇在动、歌唱正确、流程都参与，心却远离说起；转到耶稣论心里的淫念；再转到跟了三年的十二门徒仍然听不懂耶稣在做什么，因为心硬了。他举亚拿尼亚和撒非喇在五旬节复兴正中说谎的例子，说明连在圣灵大浇灌里，心仍然可以被说服去作假。然后他说：只有神能做心的工作；当你把自己持续摆在他面前时，他做得最好；祷告是圣灵改变心的主要途径，有时只是一声叹息。
The message did not stop at whether outward behavior was right or wrong. It kept asking whether the heart was soft and whether it could still be led by God.
这篇信息没有停在外面的行为对不对，而是一直问心里到底有没有柔软、能不能被神带着走。
Several weeks earlier, a couple had taken the book Bitter Sea Without Shore to the pastor’s office. After listening to the message, one of them felt as if the pastor had read the book. The book tells of using the body in prison to hold what could not be yielded, and of still refusing, after coming to the United States, to wear a mask and live in muddy water. Today the pastor put almost all his strength on “the heart must be soft and must be truly before God,” not on knowledge or outward process. Whether he had read the book or not, the overlap made it clear: the real question has never been whether the lips are moving, but whether the heart is still in God’s hand.
几个星期前，一对夫妇把《苦海无涯》送到牧师办公室。今天听完讲道，其中一人感觉牧师好像读过那本书。书里写的是在监狱里用身体守住不能退让的东西，后来到了美国仍然不肯戴面具活在浑水里。牧师今天把几乎全部力气放在“心必须软、必须真实地在神面前”，而不是放在知识或外面的流程上。无论他读了还是没读，这个重合让人清楚：真正的问题从来不在嘴唇是否在动，而在心是否还在神手里。
The couple had moved from a century-old church in Seattle, where they had attended for three years, to Ximen Church. One of them had spent his whole life at that previous place. The emotional ties were heavy. They could leave together not because there was a better program outside, but because they chose to follow the heart rather than be bound by the old place. A person can worship in one church for a long time, lips singing, process correct, yet the heart can be distant or hard. Conversely, when the heart is clear about what God is doing and where one should stand, one can leave the familiar place, even a church with a hundred years of history.
这对夫妇是从西雅图一间有百年历史的教会转到西门教会的。他们在那里待了三年，其中一人更是在原来的地方待了一辈子。情感的羁绊很重。能一起离开，不是因为外面有更好的节目，而是他们选择听从内心，而不是被原来的地方绑住。人可以长期在一个教会敬拜，嘴唇在唱，流程都对，心却可以是远的或硬的。反过来，当心里清楚神在做什么、自己该站在哪里，就可以离开熟悉的地方，即使那是一间有百年历史的教会。
This matched what the pastor said today. The disciples followed for three years and still did not understand because their hearts were hard; the couple had followed one place for three years or even a lifetime and could still move because the heart still had softness and could still be led by God. The pastor said only God can do the work of the heart; He will remove the heart of stone and give a heart of flesh. The same point can be put this way: only by taking the heart out of emotional bondage and placing it on “what God is doing” will a person not remain forever in a place that is formally correct yet inwardly distant.
这和牧师今天说的对着。门徒跟了三年还听不懂，是因为心硬；这对夫妇跟了一个地方三年甚至一辈子，却还能动，是因为心里还有柔软，还能被神带着走。牧师说，只有神能做心的工作，他要除掉石心，赐下肉心。同样的意思也可以这样说：只有把心从情感的羁绊里拿出来，放到“神正在做什么”上面，人才不会永远停在一个形式上正确、心里却远了的地方。
God gives life not so that people only finish the process of worship. Life is in Him, and this life is the light of men. Those who believe do not remain in darkness. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. Today the pastor spoke heavily of this “heart.” The couple’s move from the previous church to this one was also an action saying: they wanted a heart that could still be softened by God and could still obey, not a heart bound by emotion.
上帝给人生命，不是让人只把敬拜的流程做完。生命在他里头，这生命就是人的光。信的人不住在黑暗里。清心的人有福了，因为他们必得见神。 今天牧师把这个“心”讲得很重。这对夫妇从原来的教会转到这里，也是在用行动说：他们要一颗还能被神软化、还能听从的心，而不是被情感绑住的心。
