FIRSTBORN
SON
Servant King series
• Christ is the FIRSTBORN of all creation…
• He existed before anything else,
and he holds all creation together.
18 Christ is also the head of the church,
which is his body. He is the beginning,
the FIRSTBORN from the dead.
So he is first in everything.
• 是 首 生 的 ， 在 一 切 被 造 的 以 先 。他 也
是教會全體之首。他是元始，是從
死裡首先復生的，使他可以在凡事
上居首位。
Romans 8:29 羅 馬 書
• For God knew his people in advance, and he
chose them to become like his Son, so that
his Son would be the firstborn among
many brothers and sisters.
• 因為他預先所知道的人，就預先定下效法
他兒子的模樣，使他兒子在許多弟兄中作
長子。
• Porque a los que Dios conoció de antemano,
también los predestinó a ser transformados según
la imagen de su Hijo, para que él sea el
primogénito entre muchos hermanos.
Colossians 1:15, 17-18

his birthright as the firstborn son (inheritance)
• For we must all appear before the judgment
seat of Christ, so that each of us may
receive what is due us for the things done
while in the body, whether good or bad.
• 因為我們眾人必要在基督臺前顯露出來，
叫各人按著本身所行的，或善或惡受報。
• 10 Porque es necesario que todos comparezcamos
ante el tribunal de Cristo, para que cada uno reciba
lo que le corresponda, según lo bueno o malo que
haya hecho mientras vivió en el cuerpo.

2 Corinthians 5:10
11 For
no one can lay any foundation other than
the one we already have—Jesus Christ.
12 Anyone who builds on that foundation may use
a variety of materials—gold, silver, jewels, wood,
hay, or straw. 13 But on the judgment day, fire will
reveal what kind of work each builder has done.
The fire will show if a person’s work has any
value. 14 If the work survives, that builder will
receive a reward. 15 But if the work is burned up,
the builder will suffer great loss. The builder will
be saved, but like someone barely escaping
through a wall of flames.

When you follow the desires of your sinful
nature, the results are very clear: sexual
immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures,20 idolatry,
sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts
of anger, selfish ambition, dissension,
division, envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and
other sins like these. Let me tell you again, as I
have before, that anyone living that sort of life
will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
Galatians 5:19f - 加 拉 太 書
 Live by the Spirit
 Walk in the Spirit
 Follow the Holy Spirit
• But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit
in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience,
kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness,
and self-control. There is no law against
these things!
Galatians 5:22
