一个基督徒走出世界之后,该从事什么样的工作,并没有固定的公式。

当耶稣呼召我离开这个世界时,当然我得离开我原来作为一个带薪牧师的职位。因为在浸信会做带薪牧师,带人加入那个邪恶的教会,直接违背圣灵的工作,因此我必须离开那个教会的朋友,我的家人以及这整个教会,为了真正的跟随耶稣,过正直的生活。

但是每一个人的情况都是不同的,并不是千篇一律一模一样。我们每个人都是不同的,有时候主要求我们离开我们所在的地方,但有的时候他也要求我们留在那里。你不能简单的认为,一个人要跟随主耶稣,他就必须遵从固定的模式。你必须自己从圣灵那里听到他的话,才知道该往哪个方向走。如果你祷告要求清晰明了的指引,他就会给你清晰明了的指引,但是你必须要在信心中跟随他,然后他会供应你所有的需要。当我作为一个带薪牧师离开我所在的教会时,我必须鼓足信心相信主会预备。因为在这之前我从来没有见过主超自然的供应过我,所以我必须相信他以后会那样做,你知道,我有贷款需要付,如果我离开当时教会的工作,那我要面临所有的这一切。这对我来说需要很大的信心。主实现了他的应许,他供应了我的需要,并且为了让我能够为他而活,给了我所需的所有的东西。

能够跟随耶稣并且知道他会供应我们,真是莫大的祝福,而这供应并不是来自我们世俗的工作。现在我做了一份一周四十小时的工作,能够用我的双手去工作,是一种祝福。而不是像面对人时小心翼翼如履薄冰,总是担心会冒犯他们,否则我就会被解雇。我曾经做过不止一份像这种需要谨言慎行的工作,如果你冒犯了他们,他们就会到你的雇主那里告状,你就会被叫进办公室,这对于一个想要每天在主面前活得正直的基督徒来说,是非常麻烦的。最好的办法似乎是你自己独立工作,或者至少在你身边的人不干扰你,你不必担心因为自己与耶稣同行,做自己而得罪他们。你并不想待在一个人人都想让你妥协,人人都想让你撒谎的环境中,你身边的人总在说闲话,试图在你所行的公义的路上绊倒你。

作为基督徒你有成千上万种工作选择。最好的工作就是圣灵呼召你去做的。如果你在他想让你去的地方工作,没有人会解雇你。也不会有其他的麻烦发生,与圣灵同行,你会安全无虞,因为他是引导你的那一位。没有任何事情可以阻止你与他同行。与耶稣在一起是最安全的,无论他在哪里你也在那里。所以要坚定的与耶稣在一起,去问他,作为一个基督徒想与他和好,你需要做什么。

就工作而言也可以去问主,最适合你的地方是哪里,什么职业诸如此类的事情,他都会教导你指引你。但也要确保你是先求他的国和他的义,一切都会加给你。

What Kind of Job/Vocation Should a Follower of Jesus Work?
There is not some sort of set formula for the sort of work that a Christian aught to work once he comes out of the world. When Jesus called me out of the world of course I had to leave my position as a paid pastor because it was directly against the work of the Holy Spirit to be a paid pastor in a Baptist Church, and calling people that that wicked church. So, I did have to leave my friends, my family that were at that church and the whole church itself in order to really follow Jesus and to live upright. But not everyone’s situation is the same, none of us are “cookie-cutter” situations. All of us are different and sometimes the Lord asks us to leave a place we are at, and sometimes He asks us to say. You can’t just think that there is this formula to follow that everyone follows if they come to the Lord Jesus and want to follow Him. You have to really be hearing from the Holy Spirit to know which direction to go, and as you pray and ask for clarity, He will give you that clarity and then you just have to follow Him in faith that He will provide your needs. I had to muster up every little bit of faith that I had to believe that the Lord would come through for me when I was leaving the church as a paid pastor. I had never really seen the Lord provide for me supernaturally before, so for me to have enough faith to believe that, you know, my mortgage would be paid, and ALL those things would be taken care of if I left the place I was being paid, the church, that took a lot of faith for me. But Jesus did come through. He provided for me my needs and He gave me everything I need to sustain me in order to live for Him. And that is a wonderful blessing to be able to follow Jesus and to know that HE sustains us, NOT our earthly worldly job. Now I just, I do work a job 40 hours a week, and it’s a blessing to be able to work with my hands, not to feel like I am walking on thin ice around people, or that if I offend them, I will get fired. But I have worked more than one job where I felt like I was just walking on thin ice, that if you offend them, then they will be talking to your employer, and you will be pulled into the office and then it’s just going to be trouble for you day after day as a Christian really trying to live upright with the Lord. The best it seems is to have a job where you are working more by yourself, or at very least around people that you don’t have to be worried that you will offend in your Christian walk with the Lord for being yourself in Jesus. You don’t want to be around those environments where everyone is trying to get you to compromise, everyone is trying to get you to lie, you are around people who are always gossiping or trying to get you to stumble in your path, the path of righteousness. So, there is I don’t know, 1000 jobs you could work, 1 million jobs that you could work as a Christian. But the best one is the one that the Holy Spirt will call you to. And if you are where HE wants you to be then no one is going to fire you, nothing is going to happen to you, you are going to be safe and secure with the Holy Spirit because He is the one guiding you. Noting will stop you from going with HIM. The safest place to be is with JESUS, wherever HE is, there YOU want to be also. So, stick with Jesus, ask HIM what you need to do as a Christian to be right with Him. Ask Him about where the best place to be as far as work is for you, a vocation, things like that, and He will teach you and He will guide you. But make sure that you are seeking FIRST the Kingdom of GOD and HIS righteousness and THEN everything else will be added unto you.
