Christian Life Is Not Always Green Pastures, April 15
得胜的基督-第107章
“我必在何烈的盘石那里，站在你面前。你要击打盘石，从盘石里必有水流出来，使百姓可以喝“（出17:6）。{CTr 112.1}[1]
得胜的基督-第107章
Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink.Exodus 17:6.{CTr 112.1}[1]
得胜的基督-第107章
道路虽然崎岖不平，我们仍须运用绝对的信心，相信上帝引领的大能。以色列人在旷野漂流的经验，在这一点上是给我们的一个教训。“以色列全会众都遵耶和华的吩咐，按着站口从汛的旷野往前行，在利非订安营。百姓没有水喝。”{CTr 112.2}[2]
得胜的基督-第107章
Though the way may be rough, we must exercise implicit faith in the power of the Lord to guide us. The experience of the children of Israel when journeying through the wilderness is a lesson for us on this point. “All the congregation of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin ... according to the commandments of the Lord, and pitched in Rephidim: and there was no water for the people to drink.” ...{CTr 112.2}[2]
得胜的基督-第107章
隐身在云柱中的主在引领着他们；他们在这里安营是遵照祂的明令。天军的元帅，知道利非订缺水，而祂带领他们到这里，是为了考验他们的信心。但他们不幸证明自己是不值得祂信任的百姓。祂一再向他们显示自己。为了拯救他们，祂击杀了埃及所有家庭的长子，以大能的手领他们出离为奴之地。祂用天使的食物供养他们，又与他们立约要带领他们到应许之地。但现在面对困难，他们就叛逆，不信靠上帝，埋怨摩西把他们和他们的儿女从埃及领出来，是要他们在旷野里渴死。他们因为埋怨和缺乏信心而羞辱了上帝，使自己置身于不能赏识上帝恩慈的境地。{CTr 112.3}[3]
得胜的基督-第107章
He who was enshrouded in the pillar of cloud was leading them, and it was by His express command that they were encamped at this place. The General of the armies of heaven knew of the lack of water at Rephidim, and He brought His people hither to test their faith. But how poorly they proved themselves to be a people whom He could trust. Again and again He had manifested Himself to His chosen people. He had slain the first-born of all families of Egypt to accomplish their deliverance, and had brought them out of the land of their captivity with a high hand. He had fed them with angels’ food, and had covenanted to bring them into the Promised Land. But now, when brought into difficulty, they broke into rebellion, distrusted God, and complained that Moses had brought them and their children out of Egypt only that they might die of thirst in the wilderness. By their murmurings and lack of faith they dishonored God and placed themselves where they could not appreciate His mercies.{CTr 112.3}[3]
得胜的基督-第107章
现在有许多人以为自己一旦开始了基督徒的生活，就会摆脱一切缺乏和困难。然而每一个背起自己的十字架跟从基督的人都要都要有利非订的经历。人生不都是青葱的草原和清凉的川流。我们会遭遇失望，穷困，或者陷入困境。当我们行走窄路，自以为尽到努力之时，我们会发现痛苦的试炼临到我们。我们心神不宁中推测，假如我们与上帝同行，是决不会这样受苦的。……{CTr 112.4}[4]
得胜的基督-第107章
Many today think that when they begin their Christian life they will find freedom from all want and difficulty. But all who take up their cross to follow Christ come to a Rephidim in their experience. Life is not all made up of green pastures and cooling streams. Disappointment overtakes us, privations come, circumstances occur that bring us into difficult places. As we follow in the narrow way, doing our best as we think, we find that grievous trials come to us. We think that we must have walked by our own wisdom far away from God. Conscience-stricken, we reason that if we had walked with God we would not have suffered so....{CTr 112.4}[4]
得胜的基督-第107章
但正如古时主曾带领祂的子民来到利非订，现在祂也会将我们带到那里，以考验我们对祂的信心和忠诚。祂本着自己的怜悯，不会总是将我们放在最轻松之处。如果祂这么做，我们出于自负，会在需要的时候忘记主是我们的帮助者。（Letter 1896.24）{CTr 112.5}[5]
得胜的基督-第107章
But of old the Lord led His people to Rephidim, and He may choose to bring us there also in order to test our faithfulness and loyalty to Him. In mercy to us He does not always place us in the easiest places, for if He did, in our self-sufficiency we would forget that the Lord is our helper in time of necessity.—Letter 24, 1896.{CTr 112.5}[5]
