                             不再說 與 不能說
                   "No longer say"  v.s. "Can not say"


             有位弟兄前往西班牙，想要參觀那裏的大教堂。到了那裏，
         就有一位修道士招待他，領他瀏覽幾處頂莊嚴，頂富麗的大禮拜
         堂。每到一處，那位修道士就將堂內的希世奇珍指給他看，這一
         件是金的，這一件是銀的，這一件是鑲寶石的，那一件是有歷史
         典故的。

             到了末後，他就十分得意的對那位弟兄說﹕「今天我們可以
         不再和彼得同說﹕ "金銀我都沒有" 那樣寒酸的話了。」那位弟
         兄答道﹕「不錯，你們也不能和他同說﹕ "我奉拿撒勒人耶穌的
         名，叫你起來行走" 那樣的話了。」

             A Christian brother once visit Spain to see the great
         church buildings there.  Upon his travel, a monk received
         him and showed him around.  He took him to some very
         ancient and luxurious church buildings where many precious
         treasures were kept.

         At the end of the tour, the monk felt very proud of the
         wealth displayed through out the churches and said to that
         brother, "nowadays, we are no longer poor and do not have
         to say what Apostle Peter used to say that 'silver or gold
         we have none'";  yet our brother replied, "that is very
         true, but neither can you say the same thing Peter used to
         say, 'in the name of Jesus Christ Nazareth, rise up and
         walk!'."

             「你說﹕我是富足，已經發了財，一樣都不缺；卻不知道你是
         那困苦、可憐、貧窮、瞎眼、赤身的。我勸你向我買火煉的金子，
         叫你富足；又買白衣穿上，叫你赤身的羞恥不露出來；又買眼藥擦
        你的眼睛，使你能看見。」                 (啟示錄三﹕17、18)
