从今生走向永恒——上帝的道路

人生如同旅程。它并非一条笔直的路，也不是一条可预测的路径，而是一系列的步伐——有的平凡，有的艰巨，有的艰难，有的充满喜乐。但我们可以自问的最重要的问题是：我们是否在行在神的道路上？

在这个快节奏、目标驱动的世界里，我们很容易根据抱负、舒适或文化价值观来规划自己的人生方向。但圣经呼召我们走不同的路——像基督一样与神同行，迈向永恒。正如弥迦书6:8提醒我们：“凡人哪，耶和华已指示你何为善。他向你所要的是什么呢？只要你行公义，好怜悯，存谦卑的心，与你的神同行。”

我们常常对永恒思考不够。我们忙于当下——事业、家庭，甚至事奉。但保罗提醒我们，不要注重看得见的，而要注重看不见的。 “因为我们这至暂至轻的苦楚，要为我们成就极重无比永远的荣耀。”（哥林多后书 4:17）
目的地决定了旅程。如果我们真心相信自己是朝圣者，要前往基督永恒的家，我们的优先事项就会改变。我们会开始重视不同的事物。我们会背负更少的包袱。我们会带着目标前行，知道每一步都有永恒的意义。

耶稣说：“我就是道路、真理、生命；若不藉着我，没有人能到父那里去。”（约翰福音 14:6）
这不仅关乎救恩，也关乎每日的方向。走在神的道路上意味着放下我们的地图，信靠祂。而这并不总是容易的。

有时，神的道路似乎狭窄、令人困惑，甚至代价高昂。但正如诗篇 119:105 向我们保证的那样：“你的话是我脚前的灯，是我路上的光。”我们或许看不到前方的整条路，但我们拥有足够的光，迈出下一步，迈出坚定的步伐。

行在神的道路上，就是要像耶稣一样。他不急不躁，不追逐人群，也不躲避艰难险阻。他聆听，他爱，他服侍，他顺服父神——甚至至死不渝。
彼得说：“你们蒙召原是为此，因基督也为你们受过苦，给你们留下榜样，叫你们跟随他的脚踪行。”（彼得前书 2:21）

人们很容易被追求成就的基督教所吸引。但耶稣通过祷告、独处、怜悯和圣灵引导的顺服，与父神同行。如果我们要从今世走向永恒，走在神的道路上，就必须重新发现这些属灵的节奏。

我们并非孤身一人。神赐给我们教会，不仅仅是一个聚会的地方，更是一群可以与我们同行的人。希伯来书10:24-25鼓励我们：“又要彼此相顾，激发爱心，勉励行善。不可停止聚会……倒要彼此劝勉，既知道那日子临近，就更当如此。” 这段旅程需要鼓励、责任感和共同的智慧。我们需要导师、朋友和同行的同伴，在我们疲惫不堪时帮助我们坚持下去。

我们走在盼望中。这并非一种模糊的乐观，而是一种基于上帝应许的确信。保罗写道：“我深信那在你们心里动了善工的，必成全这工，直到耶稣基督的日子。”（腓立比书1:6）这盼望激励我们坚持不懈。当生活变得艰难时，我们要记住：我们并非漫无目的地行走，而是在回家的路上。

从今生到永生，不仅仅是几年的时间——而是一段属灵的旅程。每日决心与神同行，受祂的话语塑造，受祂的灵赋能，并以信心、谦卑和爱为标记。让我们选择窄路。让我们效法耶稣。让我们与祂同行——一路回家。

“靠祢有力量，心中寻求天路的人有福了。”（诗篇 84:5）

Our church is a community of believers who regularly meet to share life and show God's love. We do this by encouraging and serving each other and the community. We believe in the power of prayer and are always happy to pray for you.

Our Sunday service is available to stream online at 11:00 a.m. You can join us on Livestream or via Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube or X (Twitter).

The Sunday Service is now held at Strodes College, Strodes College Lane in Egham open to all, so if you would like to join us, please feel free to do so. If you have any questions, please call us on 01784 637010.

We run a physical Sunday School most weeks. If you would like your children to receive a weekly Sunday School teaching pack that you can do from home, please email us at admin@e-runnymede.co.uk so that we can send you the materials.

Church on Sunday at Strodes College, Egham

Our Sunday service starts at 11:00 a.m. and typically lasts about 90 minutes.

We start each service with lively worship with songs from around the world, followed by inspired Bible-based teaching. All our sermons are recorded and are available as a podcast after the service.

We have a monthly cycle of Sunday services, with our Communion Service being on the first Sunday of each month and an All-Age All-Nation Service on the second Sunday of each month. Our other Sunday services include Spirit-focused and teaching services.

We have consciously adopted being a blended church, that is, both for those online and face-to-face. You are welcome to join us on Livestream or via Facebook, Linkedin, YouTube, or X (Twitter), or you can catch up and watch the recordings later.

Joining us in person

Visiting a new and unfamiliar church for the first time can be intimidating, but we want to ensure you feel welcome and enjoy your time with us. A friendly face will be waiting to meet you at the entrance and welcome you.

Doors open at 10:30 a.m. for coffee and prayer. Our Sunday Service starts at 11:00 a.m. and typically runs for about 90 minutes, normally followed by tea and coffee.

The car parking area is a public area, so please ensure that your children are under your control and that, for their safety, they do not run around in the car park.

Visiting with children?

Everyone is welcome at RCF. We encourage everyone, young and old, to join the service. We have Sunday School, which starts after worship and runs during the sermon for 30 to 40 minutes for children aged 4 to 12. On the second Sunday of each month, we have a shorter All-Aged All Nations Service, where the children stay for the worship and the sermon.

After Church

We chat over coffee and biscuits after church on the first, third and fourth Sundays. If you want to get more acquainted, why not join us for a Sunday lunch with some of our members? The meal is on us! Please contact us and let us know. We would love to share a meal and get to know you better!
