(Memorization Scripture11-12)
In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea, 2 and saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!” 3 For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying:
“The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
‘Prepare the way of the Lord;
Make His paths straight.’ ”
4 Now John himself was clothed in camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist; and his food was locusts and wild honey. 5 Then Jerusalem, all Judea, and all the region around the Jordan went out to him 6 and were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.
7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, “Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? 8 Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance, 9 and do not think to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones. 10 And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit [a]and fire. 12 His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather His wheat into the barn; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”

馬太福音 3:1-12
(背誦經文11-12)
那時,有施洗的約翰出來,在猶太的曠野傳道說: 2 「天國近了,你們應當悔改!」 3 這人就是先知以賽亞所說的,他說:「在曠野有人聲喊著說:『預備主的道,修直他的路!』」 4 這約翰身穿駱駝毛的衣服,腰束皮帶,吃的是蝗蟲、野蜜。 5 那時,耶路撒冷和猶太全地並約旦河一帶地方的人,都出去到約翰那裡, 6 承認他們的罪,在約旦河裡受他的洗。 7 約翰看見許多法利賽人和撒都該人也來受洗,就對他們說:「毒蛇的種類!誰指示你們逃避將來的憤怒呢? 8 你們要結出果子來,與悔改的心相稱! 9 不要自己心裡說:『有亞伯拉罕為我們的祖宗。』我告訴你們,神能從這些石頭中給亞伯拉罕興起子孫來。 10 現在斧子已經放在樹根上,凡不結好果子的樹就砍下來,丟在火裡。
11 「我是用水給你們施洗,叫你們悔改;但那在我以後來的,能力比我更大,我就是給他提鞋也不配,他要用聖靈與火給你們施洗。 12 他手裡拿著簸箕,要揚淨他的場,把麥子收在倉裡,把糠用不滅的火燒盡了。」
