天上的主上帝希望全体教会千方百计地让贫富贵贱的人听到真理的信息。大能的救主耶稣曾为这些人死。祂能把他们从漠不关心中唤起。祂能唤醒他们的同情,软化他们的心地,向他们的心显示真理的美和能力。大工师是上帝,不是有限的人。然而祂呼召人担任媒介,使祂能藉以把光传给黑暗中的人。上帝在众教会中都有宝石。我们不应大肆斥责自称的宗教界,而当凭着谦卑和仁爱的精神向众人宣扬耶稣里的一切真理。要让人看见虔诚和献身,看见基督化的品格,他们就会被真理所吸引。凡爱上帝为至上,并爱邻舍如同自己的人将成为世上的光。凡拥有真理知识的人应当宣扬真理。他们应当高举世界的救赎主耶稣,他们应当宣扬生命之道。(《文稿》1897年152号第1,2页,〈必须使教会复苏〉,1897年){8MR404.1}[1]

The Lord God of heaven would have the entire church devising ways and means whereby high and low, rich and poor, may hear the message of truth. The Lord Jesus, the mighty Saviour, has died for these souls. He can arouse them from their indifference; He can awaken their sympathies; He can soften their hearts; He can reveal to their souls the beauty and power of the truth. The master worker is God, and not finite man, and yet, He calls upon men to be the agents through whom He can impart light to those in darkness. God has jewels in all the churches, and it is not for us to make sweeping denunciations of the professed religious world, but in humility and love, to present to all the truth as it is in Jesus. Let men see piety and devotion. Let them behold Christlikeness of character, and they will be drawn to the truth. He who loves God supremely and his neighbor as himself, will be a light in the world. Those who have a knowledge of the truth are to communicate the same; they are to lift up Jesus, the world's redeemer; they are to hold forth the word of life.--Ms 152, 1897, pp. 1, 2. ("The Church Must Be Quickened," 1897.) {8MR 404.1}[1]

要作一个不完全、虚有其表的信徒,原有可能,然而会显出亏欠,丧失永生。你可能藉着遵行圣经的一些命令,而被人视为基督徒。但终因你缺少基督徒品格的必要资格,仍必归于灭亡。你若忽略或漠视上帝所赐的警告,你若珍爱或推诿罪恶,你就是在判定你自己的永恒命运。你就会被称在天平里,显出你的亏欠。恩惠,平安,和赦免,必永远收回;耶稣将越过你,而你的祈祷和恳求,再也达不到祂的面前了。故此我们当趁这恩典尚未断绝,救主仍在为世人代求之时,为永生做彻底的工作。……{8MR404.2}[2]

It is possible to be a formal, partial believer, and yet be found wanting, and lose eternal life. It is possible to practice some of the Bible injunctions, and be regarded as a Christian, and yet perish because you lack qualifications essential to Christian character. If you neglect or treat with indifference the warnings that God has given, if you cherish or excuse sin, you are sealing your soul's destiny. You will be weighed in the balances and found wanting. Grace, peace, and pardon will be forever withdrawn; Jesus will have passed by, never again to come within the reach of your prayers and entreaties. While mercy lingers, while the Saviour is making intercession, let us make thorough work for eternity. . . . {8MR 404.2}[2]

上帝必让那些虽有祂圣言的明白教训,却予以漠视,去接受人的言论与习俗的人交账。可是却有多少人正在做这种事啊!他们拒绝关于安息日的亮光,践踏上帝的圣日。传道人和信徒,虽有圣经摆在他们面前,却在祂圣洁的训词方面向上帝的道表示轻蔑,然而他们却高举一个伪安息日,那个日子所根据的不过是罗马教的权威。这个伪安息日的要求将被强加给世人。各改正教既接受了上帝的道所谴责的道理,就会把这些道理带到带到前线,强迫人们的良心接受它们,正如教廷的权势在路德时代敦促真理的拥护者们接受他们的教条一样。同样的仗还要再打,每一个人都要蒙召决定要站在争战的哪一边。(《文稿》1893年100号第6,7,9页,〈基督是我们在大危机中的帮助者〉,1893年)1978年8月17日发布。{8MR405.1}[3]

God will hold men accountable who have the plain teachings of His Word, but disregard them and accept the sayings and customs of men. And yet how many are doing this! They reject the light in regard to the Sabbath, and trample upon God's holy day. Ministers and people, with the Bible open before them, show contempt for the Word of God in His holy precepts, while they exalt a spurious sabbath, which has no other foundation than the authority of the Roman church. The claims of this spurious sabbath are to be enforced upon the world. The Protestant churches, having received doctrines which the Word of God condemns, will bring these to the front and force them upon the consciences of men, just as the papal authorities urged their dogmas upon the advocates of truth in Luther's time. The same battle is again to be fought, and every soul will be called upon to decide upon which side of the controversy he will be found.--Ms 100, 1893, pp. 6, 7, 9. ("Christ Our Helper in the Great Crisis," 1893.) Released August 17, 1978. {8MR 405.1}[3]
