A Day Pointing to God’s Power and Love, May 3
效法主耶稣-第124章
“上帝赐福给第七日,定为圣日,因为在这日上帝歇了祂一切创造的工,就安息了”(创2:3)。{BLJ134.1}[1]
效法主耶稣-第124章
Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made.Genesis 2:3, NKJV.{BLJ 134.1}[1]
效法主耶稣-第124章
上帝看着祂所造的万物,甚为满意。万物都是尽善尽美的,足与圣洁的造物主相称。祂的安息并不是因为祂疲乏了,乃是为要欣赏祂智慧和良善的果实,以及祂荣耀多方面的表现。{BLJ134.2}[2]
效法主耶稣-第124章
God looked with satisfaction upon the work of His hands. All was perfect, worthy of its divine Author, and He rested, not as one weary, but as well pleased with the fruits of His wisdom and goodness and the manifestations of His glory.{BLJ 134.2}[2]
效法主耶稣-第124章
上帝在第七日安息了,就将这日分别为圣,作为人类安息的日子。人类照着创造主的榜样,要在这圣日安息,以便观赏天地万物,并纪念上帝创造的大工。当他看到上帝智慧和良善的种种凭据时,他的心就会对于造他的主充满敬爱了。{BLJ134.3}[3]
效法主耶稣-第124章
After resting upon the seventh day, God sanctified it, or set it apart, as a day of rest for humankind. Following the example of the Creator, dwellers on earth were to rest upon this sacred day, that as they should look upon the heavens and the earth, they might reflect upon God’s great work of creation; and that as they should behold the evidences of God’s wisdom and goodness, their hearts might be filled with love and reverence for their Maker.{BLJ 134.3}[3]
效法主耶稣-第124章
上帝在伊甸园中赐福给第七日,立为创造之工的纪念。祂将安息日交给人类的代表和始祖亚当。凡住在地上的人都要遵守这一天,来表示感激上帝并承认祂为创造他们的主宰,和管理他们的君王;也就是承认自己是祂手所造的,是祂权下的子民。可见安息日完全是一个纪念的日子,而且是赐给全人类的制度。其中并没有什么预表的意义,也没有限定由哪一个民族遵守。{BLJ134.4}[4]
效法主耶稣-第124章
In Eden, God set up the memorial of His work of creation, in placing His blessing upon the seventh day. The Sabbath was committed to Adam, the father and representative of the whole human family. Its observance was to be an act of grateful acknowledgment, on the part of all who should dwell upon the earth, that God was their Creator and their rightful Sovereign; that they were the work of His hands and the subjects of His authority. Thus the institution was wholly commemorative, and given to the entire human race. There was nothing in it shadowy or of restricted application to any people....{BLJ 134.4}[4]
效法主耶稣-第124章
上帝设立安息日的宗旨乃是要人思考祂创造的大工。大自然向他们说话,说明天上有一位永生的上帝,就是创造万物的主宰,执掌万有的君王。“诸天述说上帝的荣耀;穹苍传扬祂的手段。这日到那日发出言语;这夜到那夜传出知识”(诗19:1-2)。地上所有的美丽景色都是上帝之爱的表现。我们能从巍峨的山岭,高大的树木和鲜艳的花朵上看出祂的大爱。万物都向我们讲说上帝。而那指明上帝为创造万物之主的安息日更叫人打开大自然的课本,并在其中探索创造主的智慧,能力和慈爱。(PP.47,48){BLJ134.5}[5]
效法主耶稣-第124章
God designs that the Sabbath shall direct the minds of all people to the contemplation of His created works. Nature speaks to their senses, declaring that there is a living God, the Creator, the Supreme Ruler of all. “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handiwork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge” (Psalm 19:1, 2). The beauty that clothes the earth is a token of God’s love. We may behold it in the everlasting hills, in the lofty trees, in the opening buds and the delicate flowers. All speak to us of God. The Sabbath, ever pointing to Him who made them all, bids men and women open the great book of nature and trace therein the wisdom, the power, and the love of the Creator.—Patriarchs and Prophets, 47, 48.{BLJ 134.5}[5]
