爱神爱人是上帝颁布给万物之灵的人的最大诫命。唯独爱神爱人者是个真正“顶天立地”的人。在人类社会中,弱势群体如贫、病、孤、寡、残及落难者都极须真诚的关爱与扶助。为此求主大大赐福并重用贵事工,但愿众教会与主内肢体也落力给予支持

我感到高兴有人愿意开始加强华文教会事工的整全性。这世代的需要庞大已不容许我们继续持守二元化信仰。社会及政治的力量已促使教会贴切地在一个以种族、偏执宗教、及政治发展划分的国家落实和好的福音。与外展事工同等重要的是整全的门徒培训,将福音化为行动以让初信者能‘全人’地发挥潜能。信徒不单是蒙召在基督圈子里作光和盐,而是在一个多元种族的马来西亚。若无整全的信仰实践,信徒们如何能在社会中作光和盐?全人关怀团队的角色在这方面将如指路明灯帮助华文教会。

神真美好!将常新的异象赐下给这班年轻的团队。关怀事工不单需要财力,更极度需要有助人技巧,圣灵恩膏的关怀生力军。是时候华人教会回应弱势群体的全人需要。教会墙外的哭泣恩主老早听见,看到……唯盼圣灵透过此团队来感动、装备并打发信徒去满足神关爱的心意

Datuk Dr Denison Jayasooria
社会策略基金会执行干事
神在祂的子民中动工以便改变个人、家庭、及社区的生命。身为祂忠心的门徒我们必须辨明祂的旨意并寻求以完全奉献、热情、及坚持到底的心作工。以顺服的心分享主道,以服侍的心活出主道,以及显明神奇妙之工等,都是全人事工不可或缺的层面。
我确信我们的主耶稣会使用黄恩德弟兄及His Team来赋能力及动员基督徒积极‘走入’世界。但愿我们的主赐福这事工,进一步装备他们及供应所需的资源来实行这装备神子民的任务。

大多华人教会,自宣教士撒离自立自养自治以来,对行公义,好怜悯的社会关怀,有所欠缺。求主怜悯,赦免,也帮助我们,一起努力。千里之行,始於足下,让我们努力面前。
全人海外督导
主对马来西亚的教会有特殊的委托:祂将许多未曾听闻福音的客工带入此地。主的命令是要我们关爱外邦寄居的(利19:18,33;出 22:20-21,23:9;亚7:10)。这表示我们不可压迫他们,还要为他们努力营造一个公正的法律体系来回应他们诸多的委屈哀怨(申 1:16,24:17;27:19,玛3:5)。我们必须保障他们休息及欢假的权利(申5:14;23:12),并协助他们明白那独一及唯一真实上帝的律 列典章(申31:12;利17,22:17)
当他人需要忍受因参与海外宣教而带来的文化冲击,孤单寂寞及迁移上的适应时,你们却只需走向隔壁家就能与聚集大马的各国各民相遇。错失了这佳美契机将是极大的“走宝”。我祈祷大马的教会将被主兴起来迎向这自家门口的宣教良机所带来的挑战。
The Lord has a special mandate for the church in Malaysia: He has brought many foreign workers who have never heard the Gospel in their homeland. The command of the Lord is to love the sojourners among us. ( Lev. 19:18; 33, Ex 22:20-21; 23:9, Zech 7:10.) This means we are not to oppress them, but work towards a just legal system to handle their grievances (Dt 1:16; 24:17; 27:19, Mal 3:5). We must protect their rights in having off day and holidays (Dt 5:14; Ex 23:12, 20:10), and help them understand the ordinances of the One and Only True God (Dt 31:12, Lev 17, 22:17).
While others have to endure culture shock, loneliness, the adjustment of relocation in order to participate in overseas mission but you just have to walk next door and meet the nations gathered in Malaysia. To miss this opportunity will be such a big loss. I pray that the Malaysian church will rise to the challenge of this mission opportunity at your doorstep.
基督耶穌在世时亲自立下了「服侍」与「传道」並重並行的模范;今日教会愛神同时也要愛人, 最有效的表达途经,就是要往普天下去传福音使万民成为基督门徒, 同时亦要关心他們生命和生活上的需要。这种大戒命与大使命並重並行的宣教,可以称之为「两条腿走宣教路」。愿 「全人关怀团队」能把全人关怀的理念与实踐帶給马來西亚华人教会,透過培訓教育神学生及信徒,动员华人基督徒及教会參与弱勢群体的全人关顾。
When Jesus Christ walks the earth, he sets a model of ‘Ministering’ while ‘Preaching’ and gave equivalent emphasis to both. The most effective way for Churches today to love God, and man as well is to preach the good news to the end of the world and make them Christ’s disciple, meanwhile we have to care for the needs of people of whom we are ministering to. This kind of mission that emphasize on both Great Commandment and Great Commission is known as ‘two legs walk on mission road’. May Histeam bring the concept and practicality of holistic care to Malaysian Chinese churches, through training and education to seminary students and believers, and to mobilize churches to involve in caring of the underprivileged group.
