奇妙的神恩-第133章
“所以你们因信基督耶稣,都是上帝的儿子”(加3:26)。{AG 140.1}[1]

For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.Galatians 3:26.{AG 140.1}[1]
奇妙的神恩-第133章
随随便便地谈论宗教,毫无心灵饥渴和活泼信心的祈祷,都是没有效能的。名义上相信基督,单单承认祂为世人的救主,永不能使心灵得医治。使人得救的信心,不仅是理智上的赞同真理而已。人若要先获得完全的知识而后才肯相信,就不能领受上帝的福气。仅仅相信关于基督的事迹是不够的,我们必须信靠基督本身。那唯一使我们获益的信心,乃是那接受基督为个人的救主,并领取祂的功劳归为已有的信心。有许多人以为信心是一种观念。其实救人的信心,乃是一种交契。凡接受基督的人藉此与上帝立约。真正的信心就是生命。活泼的信心意味着能力的增强和坚稳的倚靠。人的心灵藉此就能成为制胜一切的力量。{DA 347}{AG 140.2}[2]
奇妙的神恩-第133章
To talk of religion in a casual way, to pray without soul hunger and living faith, avails nothing. A nominal faith in Christ, which accepts Him merely as the Saviour of the world, can never bring healing to the soul. The faith that is unto salvation is not a mere intellectual assent to the truth. He who waits for entire knowledge before he will exercise faith cannot receive blessing from God. It is not enough to believe?aboutChrist; we must believe?in?Him. The only faith that will benefit us is that which embraces Him as a personal Saviour; which appropriates His merits to ourselves. Many hold faith as an opinion. Saving faith is a transaction by which those who receive Christ join themselves in covenant relation with God. Genuine faith is life. A living faith means an increase of vigor, a confiding trust, by which the soul becomes a conquering power.36{AG 140.2}[2]

真正的信心乃是接受基督为个人的救主。上帝舍了祂的独生子,叫我因信祂而“不至灭亡,反得永生”(约3:16)。当我遵照基督的吩咐来到祂面前的时候,我就当相信已经领受了祂的救恩。现在我活着,“是因信上帝的儿子而活,祂是爱我,为我舍己”(加2:20)。{MH 62}{AG 140.3}[3]
奇妙的神恩-第133章
True faith is that which receives Christ as a personal Saviour. God gave His only-begotten Son, that I, by believing in Him, “should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). When I come to Christ, according to His word, I am to believe that I receive His saving grace. The life that I now live, I am to “live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved?me, and gave himself for?me” (Galatians 2:20).37{AG 140.3}[3]
奇妙的神恩-第133章
使徒保罗清楚地说明在新约之下信心与律法之间的关系。他说:“我们既因信称义,就藉着我们的主耶稣基督,得与上帝相和。”“这样,我们因信废了律法吗?断乎不是;更是坚固律法。”“律法既因肉体软弱,有所不能行的,”──不能使人称义,因为人在罪恶的本性中不能遵守律法,──“上帝就差遣自己的儿子,成为罪身的形状,作了赎罪祭,在肉体中定了罪案;使律法的义成就在我们这不随从肉体,只随从圣灵的人身上”(罗5:1;3:31;8:3-4)。{PP 373} {AG 140.4}[4]
奇妙的神恩-第133章
The apostle Paul clearly presents the relation between faith and the law under the new covenant. He says: “Being?justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” “Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid; yea, we establish the law.” “For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh”—it could not justify man, because in his sinful nature he could not keep the law—“God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh; that the righteousness of the law?might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit” (Romans 5:1;3:31;8:3, 4).38{AG 140.4}[4]
