《星球大戰》的隱藏信息-T

T: All Terrain Armored Transport (AT-AT) / 全地形裝甲運輸機

《星球大戰:帝國反擊戰》(Star Wars:The Empire Strikes Back)的開場營造一幕精彩的雪地大戰,邪惡帝國的巨大全地形裝甲運輸機步步進擊革命聯軍的雪地基地,男主角盧克(Luke Skywalker)架駛小型雪地戰機(Snowspeeder)迎戰,無疑是以卵擊石。最終盧克憑著勇氣與機巧,從戰機甩出一條鋼線,纒繞裝甲運輸機的鋼腿,使屹立不倒的龐然大物也要仆倒下來。

面對巨大的困難,很多人會選擇逃避,然而為何故事中男主角要奮不顧身的迎戰呢?原因是承擔使命!當人看見公義,知道付出行動能拯救很多人生命的時,他會充滿信心地迎難而上。

《聖經》描述大衛面對非利士巨人歌利亞時,毫無退縮。因為他心中有永生的神,要為神爭戰(撒上17:26);他曾經歷上帝的保守,脫離獅子和熊的爪(撒上17:37);他堅定依靠耶和華,要榮耀上帝的名(撒上17:45-56);他相信勝敗全在乎於耶和華(撒上17:47)。這次爭戰,是他必須承擔的使命(撒上17:32),因為他能拯救很多以色列人的生命,除掉他們的恥辱。

大衛用機弦甩出一塊石子,打中歌利亞的額,他就仆倒死了。得勝者不需用刀用槍,正如大衛自己所說:「勝敗全在乎耶和華!」

T: All Terrain Armored Transport (AT-AT)

In the opening scene of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, there was an epic snow battle between the Rebel defenses and the evil Empire”s AT-AT walkers – the four-legged transport and combat vehicles. Luke Skywalker commandeered his squadron to counter-attack the huge AT-ATs using harpoons and tow cables on their Snowspeeders enabling them to tie up the transports” legs to topple them over.

When faced with major difficulties, many might choose to run away. So why did Luke Skywalker risk his life to battle? The reason is because he had a mission to accomplish. When one sees an opportunity for justice and that the act of sacrificing oneself can save lives, one will instinctively be filled with the confidence to face the difficulty.

The Bible tells of a time when David was facing Goliath, the Philistine giant. Although it seemed like a hopeless situation, David was given strength by his belief that the Living God was on his side that he was willing to fight for Him. (1 Samuel 17:26) David was confident because he had experienced God”s protection when God rescued him from the harm of a lion and a bear. (1 Samuel 17:37) He trusted God and knew that this battle was the Lord”s. (1 Samuel 17:45 – 47) In this battle, David was given a mission (1 Samuel 17:32) to rescue the Israelites and to rid them of their shame. Without a weapon, David only used a stone in a sling to defeat the giant. The stone sank into the giant”s forehead and Goliath fell dead on the ground. Winners don”t rely on the use of guns and knives. Winner understands, just like David did, that: “Win or lose, all situations are in God”s control.”
