提摩太後書是我最喜歡的新約書卷之一,我用它教過「教牧書信」,我用它分題講道,因此當我看到郭牧師這份「薪傳」的電子書時,覺得非常親切。他將整封信的中心圍繞在「薪傳」這個觀念上,如智慧的交棒者、交棒者的期許、人才培育等。

從講道的角度看這本書,可以清楚知道作者根據講道的三個原則:

引言引人入勝,

本論四平八穩,

結論強而有力。

有心學習講道者可以用這三個原則來評估這十三篇講章,你會發現郭牧師是這麼熟練的抓住講章的原則。雖然他年紀尚輕,但卻有保羅語重心長的口氣。

史托徳牧師(John Stott)也曾用提摩太後書作講章,編成Guard The Gospel(中譯:為真道而戰),特別提到保羅想到所交託給他的善道,想到他自己的快將殉難,更想到提摩太的軟弱個性,和世界的敵擋與撒但的詭計,在這情況下,他向提摩太發出了對福音的囑咐及對這位年青人的期許。但願我們看完此書後,願意接下這福音的棒,去為它而戰,肯為它受苦,繼續堅守它,並去傳揚它!

This series on 2 Timothy originates from Dr. Kuo's chapel preaching at OTS. I'm pleased to see its revised edition being available to preachers all over Chinese churches.

Dr. Kuo grasps the issue of leadership within 2 Timothy to show how important it is both for Paul and for today's leadership. The baton of leadership is a real key to success in building every generation of Christian. Transitions can be tricky business. In 2 Tim., Paul lays out clear principles as to how this baton should be passed. In this helpful collection of sermons, Dr. Kuo once again reminds us of the legacy of leadership that is so sorely needed in the Chinese church.

Many leaders of the Chinese church are eager to continue working until they meet their grave. In reality, Paul's vision of leadership leads quite a different direction.
In 2 Timothy, Paul had shown clearly that he had adequately prepared Timothy long ago. His death would not adversely impact the churches he founded.
How many of our Christian leaders have the same insight?
Let everyone who has ear listen to this message being preached afresh by the writing of Dr. Kuo and be blessed by it.

I like the one feature of the book that has a set of reflection questions at the end. These questions are beneficial for group discussions, for preaching application and personal devotions. This work is both spiritually and intellectually sound. I highly recommend every preacher, seasoned or novice, to consult this important work.

I often wonder why any pastor could not study and meditate on the message of II Timothy on a regular basis.

Dr. Kuo shared these messages at our church this year.

I thank God for using Dr. Kuo to inspire me to do a personal concentrated study of II Timothy for the first time.

It has helped me to understand my roles and responsibilities as a minister of the Lord Jesus Christ.

I highly recommend the book for those pastors who desire to be faithful undershepherds of Jesus Christ and dedicated members of the Church.
