给牧师和传道人的证言-第60章
[《给传道人和工人的特别证言》系列一,第9号,1897年,第31,32页]
(澳大利亚库兰邦,1896年8月27日)
虔诚是需要的。要表现出更少的自信和更多的谦卑。上帝的圣工已被人视为平凡。最好要更换议事会和委员会的人员,而不要多年保留他们的职位,直至这些人觉得自己的建议必须毫无疑问地被人采纳,而且一般没有人提反对的意见。有些议事会的成员不具备应有的洞察力。他们的理解力是狭隘和以自我为中心的。需要进行一场改变。已经计划好的事情如果只做了一半或四分之一,那是不明智的。{TM 417.3}[1]

[Cooranbong, Australia,August 27, 1896]
Piety is needed. Less self-confidence and far more humility must be seen. The work of God has come to be looked upon as a common thing. It would have been much better to have changed the men on boards and committees than to have retained the very same men for years, until they supposed that their propositions were to be adopted without a question; and generally no voice has been lifted in an opposite direction. There are men who sit in council who have not the discernment that they should have. The comprehension is narrow and egotistical. A change is needed. It will not?be wise to carry out one half or one quarter of the enterprises which have been planned.{TM 417.3}[1]

要让每一个出席议事会和委员会的人都在自己的心中写下:我正在为今生和永恒工作。我必须为我一切行为的动机向上帝交账。让这句话成为他的座右铭。让诗人的祈祷上达上帝:“耶和华啊,求祢禁止我的口,把守我的嘴,求祢不叫我的心偏向邪恶,以致我和作孽的人同行恶事;也不叫我吃他们的美食”(诗141:3-4)。{TM 418.1}[2]
给牧师和传道人的证言-第60章
Let each one who sits in council and in committee meetings write in his heart the words: I am working for time and for eternity. I must give an account to God for all the motives which prompt me to action. Let this be his motto. Let the prayer of the psalmist go up to God, “Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips. Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practice wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.”{TM 418.1}[2]
