Results of Hardening the Heart Against God, April 6
得胜的基督-第98章
“耶和华使埃及王法老的心刚硬,他就追赶以色列人”(创14:8)。{CTr 103.1}[1]
得胜的基督-第98章
And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel.Exodus 14:8.{CTr 103.1}[1]
得胜的基督-第98章
当强烈而有说服力的亮光从上帝而来使人知道伟大的自有永有者时,法老被迫屈服了。然而压力一消除,他的不信就死灰复燃,抵制上帝所赐的大光。他拒绝第一个神迹的证据时,就撒下了不信的种子,那种子自然结出了不信的果子。后来王就不愿信服上帝能力的任何作为了。国王硬着心,迈出了不信的一步又一步,直到埃及全境每家的骄傲——就是长子都遭了殃。此后他率军追赶以色列人,想夺回全能者的手所拯救的百姓。但他是在与那胜过人间一切权势的能力交战。他和他的全军一同淹没在红海的大水中。{CTr 103.2}[2]
得胜的基督-第98章
When light from God, strong and convincing, came to make known the great I AM, Pharaoh was compelled to yield. But as soon as the pressure was removed, his unbelief returned and counteracted the great light God had given. When he refused the evidence of the first miracle, he sowed the seed of infidelity, which, left to its natural course, produced a harvest after its own kind. Afterward the king would not be convinced by any working of God’s power. The monarch hardened his heart, and went on from one step to another of unbelief, until throughout the vast realm of Egypt the firstborn, the pride of every household, had been laid low. After this he hurried with his army after Israel. He sought to bring back a people delivered by the arm of Omnipotence. But he was fighting against a Power greater than any human power, and with his host he perished in the waters of the Red Sea.{CTr 103.2}[2]
得胜的基督-第98章
轻视上帝律法的人正在犯与法老一样的罪。他们正在使自己心肠刚硬。他们因人的理论,因撒但的建议和谬见而拒绝上帝的声音。圣灵也被拒绝遭撇弃了。父辈的罪孽报应在儿女身上。……{CTr 103.3}[3]
得胜的基督-第98章
The despisers of God’s law are practicing the same sin that Pharaoh practiced. They are hardening their hearts. The voice of God is rejected for human theories, for satanic suggestions and delusions. The Holy Spirit is resisted and set aside. The iniquities of the fathers are visited upon the children....{CTr 103.3}[3]
得胜的基督-第98章
上帝的灵把罪恶控制在良心之下。人若高抬自己,挣脱圣灵的感化,就会收获犯罪的后果。……警告的效果对于他会越来越小。他慢慢地就不再敬畏上帝了。他顺着肉体撒种,就会收获败坏。他所播撒的种子逐渐成熟。……他的肉心变成了石心。敌挡真理使他深陷于罪恶之中。……所有的人都应该明白,什么事情会使心灵遭到毁灭。这不是因为上帝发出的任何旨意要与人作对。上帝不使人陷于属灵的盲目状况。祂已赐下足够的亮光和证据使人能够辨别真理与谬论。但祂不强迫人接受真理。祂让人在善与恶之间自由地选择。如果人一次拒绝那足以引导他的思维向善的证据而选择恶,第二次他就更加容易选择恶了。第三次比第二次又更易于偏离上帝而站到撒但一边。在这个过程当中,他会一味地继续下去直到深陷于罪恶之中,把他所喜爱的虚谎当作真理。(Manuscript 1901.126;2SAT. 183, 184).{CTr 103.4}[4]
得胜的基督-第98章
The Spirit of God keeps evil under the control of conscience. When people exalt themselves above the influence of the Spirit, they reap a harvest of iniquity.... Warnings have less and less power over them. They gradually lose their fear of God. They sow to the flesh; they will reap corruption. The harvest of the seed that they themselves have sown is ripening.... Their heart of flesh becomes a heart of stone. Resistance to truth confirms them in iniquity.... All should be intelligent in regard to the agency by which the soul is destroyed. It is not because of any decree that God has sent out against men or women. He does not make them spiritually blind. God gives sufficient light and evidence to enable them to distinguish truth from error. But He does not force them to receive truth. He leaves them free to choose the good or to choose the evil. If people resist evidence that is sufficient to guide their judgment in the right direction and choose evil once, they will do this more readily the second time. The third time they will still more eagerly withdraw from God and choose to stand on the side of Satan. And in this course they will continue until they are confirmed in evil and believe the lie they have cherished as truth.—Manuscript 126, 1901?(Sermons and Talks, 2:183, 184).{CTr 103.4}[4]
