MR No. 772 - Workers Need More of Christ's Refining Grace
文稿发布-第10卷-第3章
你需要另一种模式来塑造你的性格,才能成为非常有用的人。你需要更多地拥有基督的爱,才会降服自己的意志。你没有意识到你向上帝有义务忍耐、仁慈而恭敬地对待你传道的弟兄和教会的每一成员。你需要基督的仁慈、礼貌、温和及谦逊。你有很多宝贵的素质,应当予以完善,好在上帝的圣工中从事最高的服务。……{10MR3.1}[1]

You need a different mold upon your character, in order that you may be highly useful. You need to possess more of the love of Christ that your own will may be subdued. You have not realized your obligations to God to be patient, kind, and respectful to your ministering brethren and to every member of the church. You need the kindness, courtesy, meekness, and lowliness of Christ. You have many valuable qualifications that should be perfected to do highest service in the cause of God. . . . {10MR 3.1}[1]

在任何时候我们都绝不可因跋扈的言行而激起纷争。要放弃一切苛刻的举止,要寻求更亲密地与上帝同行。你以往比现今温和谦卑得多。你需要上帝精炼人心的恩典,需要基督的柔和。有一项工作已经分配给你,无人能替你做。要“将生命的道表明出来,”你就要实际树立基督徒的榜样。“凡所行的,都不要发怨言,起争论,使你们无可指摘,诚实无伪,在这弯曲悖谬的世代作上帝无瑕疵的儿女。你们显在这世代中,好像明光照耀,将生命的道表明出来,叫我在基督的日子好夸我没有空跑,也没有徒劳”(腓2:14-16)。{10MR3.2}[2]

We should never stir up strife by domineering words and actions. Put away everything like hard dealing, and seek for a closer walk with God. You used to be a more meek and humble man than you are now. You need the refining grace of God, the meekness of Christ. There is a work allotted to you that no one can do for you. "Holding forth the word of life," you are to practically set forth a Christian example. "Do all things without murmuring or disputing: That you may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world: Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither labored in vain" (Philippians 2:14-16). {10MR 3.2}[2]

倘若身居要职的人不显偏心,而是表现耶稣的忍耐与仁慈,他们就必发现这种方法比讲道、行使权力,或提出有力的论据更有效。基督化品格的无声影响必如天国的日光打动人心。愿上帝帮助你因义而行义。(《信函》1889年222号,致一位工人领袖)怀爱伦著作托管委员会1980年3月3日发布于美国首都华盛顿{10MR3.3}[3]

If men in responsible office do not show partiality, but exercise the patience and kindness of Jesus, they will find this course more effective than the preaching of sermons, the exercise of power, or the presentation of strong argument. The silent influence of Christian character will fall upon men as the sunbeams of heaven. May God help you to do right because it is right.-- Letter 22, 1889. (To a Leading Worker.) White Estate Washington, D. C. March 3, 1980 {10MR 3.3}[3]
