耶穌復活後顯現給婦女，叫他們告訴門徒要去加里肋亞，耶穌會在那裏見他們。但耶穌卻在耶路撒冷顯現給門徒。為什麼？
啊，因為他們不聽命，而耶穌對他們又太好了！...
Dear Fr. Francis, How can I better understand “Let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No’ be ‘No.’ (Mt 5:37)? I’m a bit confused as Jesus had tried to conceal his ID as the Messiah & sometimes asked those who received His healing not to spread the news publicly which seems to contradict this teaching to tell the truth. How should I apply it to my daily life? Should I not take Mt 5:37 literally and need to be flexible if saying the truth might hinder God’s work in certain circumstances? Thank you.
First of all, let’s try to understand why Jesus told certain people, but in fact not all, whom He healed to not tell other people. He did so not to hide his power, since many times He openly healed whole crowds of people, or the healing of the blind man Bartimaeus...
夢中的自己犯了十誡，而夢同潛意識是相關的，那算是思想犯罪嗎？ 需要為自己在夢中所犯的罪辦告解嗎？
一般來說，人在做夢時，多半都是不由自主的。那麼，所發生的事，就不能負責任，當中行的錯，就不可算是罪了。 不過，有兩種情形是要注意的： 一，若夢中發生的，是先前清醒時曾想過的，或曾浮現但沒有意願拒絕或棄絕的，又或是清楚來自自己之前看過，暴力或色情或類同的影片，文章或電玩時，那就必須為這些先前容讓邪念進入腦袋的行為悔改。 二，如果事情是發生在較清醒，半夢半醒之際，那就要誠實地想想自己有沒有刻意主導當中的行為，或想着既然在夢中就可放肆的念頭，這些很明顯就不再是不由自主的了。要告明的不是夢中犯罪，而是能控制後樂意參與或容許。...
