Chap. 48—Christ in All the Bible
教会证言-卷六-第49章
当时常向人宣讲那位被钉十字架之救主基督的权能,就是那赐永生的权能。我们当向他们指出《旧约》乃是福音的表号与影像,正如《新约》是福音能力的展现。《新约》并没有提出一种新的宗教;而《旧约》也没有提到一种宗教要由新的宗教所取代。实际上《新约》不过是《旧约》的前进与展开。亚伯是相信基督的,他也实在是和彼得或保罗一般,因祂的大能而得救。以诺也是基督的一位代表,正如蒙爱的门徒约翰一般。以诺与上帝同行,上帝将他取去,他就不在世上了。基督复临的信息也曾交托给他。“亚当的七世孙以诺曾预言这些人说:看哪,主带着祂的千万圣者降临,要在众人身上行审判”(犹14、15)。以诺所传的信息和他的被接升天,对于当时的人,实在是一种无可怀疑的明证。玛土撒拉和挪亚都可用这些事来作有力的论证,显明义人可以被接升天。{6T392.1}[1]
教会证言-卷六-第49章
The power of Christ, the crucified Saviour, to give eternal life, should be presented to the people. We should show them that the Old Testament is as verily the gospel in types and shadows as the New Testament is in its unfolding power. The New Testament does not present a new religion; the Old Testament does not present a religion to be superseded by the New. The New Testament is only the advancement and unfolding of the Old. Abel was a believer in Christ, and was as verily saved by His power as was Peter or Paul. Enoch was a representative of Christ as surely as was the beloved disciple John. Enoch walked with God, and he was not, for God took him. To him was committed the message of the second coming of Christ. “And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of His saints, to execute judgment upon all.”Jude 1:14, 15. The message preached by Enoch and his translation to heaven were a convincing argument to all who lived in his time. These things were an argument that Methuselah and Noah could use with power to show that the righteous could be translated.{6T 392.1}[1]
教会证言-卷六-第49章
那位曾与以诺同行的上帝,乃是我们的主救主耶稣基督。祂那时是世上的光,正如今日一般。当日那班活在世上的人并非缺少教师去教导他们生命之道;因为挪亚和以诺都是基督徒。福音也早已在《利未记》的教训中宣布过了。现今和从前一样,仍然需要绝对的顺从。这样看来,我们明了这道的重要,该是何等的要紧啊!{6T392.2}[2]
教会证言-卷六-第49章
That God who walked with Enoch was our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. He was the light of the world then just as He is now. Those who lived then were not without teachers to instruct them in the path of life; for Noah and Enoch were Christians. The gospel is given in precept in Leviticus. Implicit obedience is required now, as then. How essential it is that we understand the importance of this word!{6T 392.2}[2]
教会证言-卷六-第49章
有人问:教会中之所以缺乏,原因何在?回答是:我们让自己的心思被吸引离开了圣道。如果人已将上帝的道当作心灵的粮食吃了,如果上帝的道已经得到人的尊重和信从,则目前许多重述的证言,也就不必要了。圣经简明的宣言,也会被人接受而且遵行了。{6T392.3}[3]
教会证言-卷六-第49章
The question is asked: What is the cause of the dearth in the church? The answer is: We allow our minds to be drawn away from the word. If the word of God were eaten as the food for the soul, if it were treated with respect and deference, there would be no necessity for the many and repeated testimonies that are borne. The simple declarations of Scripture would be received and acted upon.{6T 392.3}[3]

其活泼的原则如同生命树的叶子,乃为医治万民。{6T393.1}[4]
教会证言-卷六-第49章
Its living principles are as the leaves of the tree of life for the healing of the nations.{6T 393.1}[4]
教会证言-卷六-第49章
永生上帝的道不仅是用笔写下的,也是用口述说的。圣经是上帝向我们说话的声音,正如我们能亲耳听到它一样确定。如果我们认识到这一点,我们就会以何等敬畏之心去翻开上帝的圣言,又会以何等诚恳的心意去查考它的训词啊!研读并默念圣经就会被视同觐见那无穷之主一般。{6T393.2}[5]
教会证言-卷六-第49章
The word of the living God is not merely written, but spoken. The Bible is God’s voice speaking to us, just as surely as though we could hear it with our ears. If we realized this, with what awe would we open God’s word, and with what earnestness would we search its precepts! The reading and contemplation of the Scriptures would be regarded as an audience with the Infinite One.{6T 393.2}[5]

当撒但用他的种种暗示进逼我们的心灵时,如果我们珍视“耶和华如此说”,就能被吸引进入到至高者的隐秘的亭子。{6T393.3}[6]
教会证言-卷六-第49章
When Satan presses his suggestions upon our minds, we may, if we cherish a “Thus saith the Lord,” be drawn into the secret pavilion of the Most High.{6T 393.3}[6]
教会证言-卷六-第49章
许多人没能效法我们圣洁的模范,是因为他们很少研究祂品格的明确特征。许多人充满忙碌的计划,总是活动着;他们没有时间或地方,让宝贵的耶稣成为他们亲密、亲爱的同伴。他们没有把每个思想和行动都提交祂指点,求问说:“这是主的道路吗?”如果他们这样做了,就会像以诺一样与上帝同行。{6T393.4}[7]
教会证言-卷六-第49章
Many fail of imitating our holy Pattern because they study so little the definite features of that character. So many are full of busy plans, always active; and there is no time or place for the precious Jesus to be a close, dear companion. They do not refer every thought and action to Him, inquiring: “Is this the way of the Lord?” If they did they would walk with God, as did Enoch.{6T 393.4}[7]
