  主邀请人们充分研究祂的要求，以便明白祂的旨意。祂的道要得到查考。它需要全面的调查。喜爱黑暗而拒绝来就光是不对的。……{9MR265.1}[1]

  The Lord invites men to fully investigate His claims, that they may understand His will. His Word is to be searched. It challenges full investigation. It is error that loves darkness and refuses to come to the light. . . . {9MR 265.1}[1]

  基督在地上的时候，大批平民愿意接受祂，只是担心文士和法利赛人会做什么。这些领袖既坐在摩西的位上，自称认识上帝，就看出基督正在吸引百姓的注意力离开他们。他们决心反对祂的工作，而一旦在反对的路上开始前进，什么证据对他们来说就都没有分量了。基督的奇妙作为确实被拒绝了。祂口中所出的恩言被误传和曲解。他们认为因基督慈怜的作为和医治的神迹而表现的欣喜是对他们个人的轻蔑。基督所作的呼吁，充满爱的呼吁，祂所提出的结论性意见，只是燃起了他们心中仇恨的火焰，他们虽曾知罪，却拒绝了亮光。基督到祂自己的地方来，自己的人倒不接待祂。祂不得不放弃犹大地以便保存自己的性命直到时候满足。我们读到：“这事以后，耶稣在加利利游行，不愿在犹太游行，因为犹太人想要杀祂”（约7:1）。（《文稿》1900年14号第3,10,11页，〈向上帝献上感恩〉，1900年2月11日）怀爱伦著作托管委员会1979年8月1日发表于美国首都华盛顿{9MR265.2}[2]

  When Christ was upon this earth, the great mass of the common people would have accepted Him had it not been that they were afraid of what the Scribes and Pharisees might do. These leaders, sitting in Moses' seat, claiming to know God, saw that Christ was drawing the attention of the people from them. They determined to oppose His work, and once started in the path of opposition, no evidence had any weight with them. The wonderful works Christ did were denied. The gracious words which fell from His lips were misstated and misconstrued. They regarded the rejoicing shown because of Christ's works of compassion and miracles of healing as a personal slight to themselves. The appeals which Christ made, appeals which were freighted with love, the conclusive arguments He presented, only kindled fires of hatred in the hearts which, once convicted, had refused the light. Christ came to His own, and His own received Him not. He had to forsake Judea in order to preserve His life till the fullness of the time. "After those things," we read, "Jesus walked in Galilee: for He would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill Him" (John 7:1).--Manuscript 14, 1900, pp. 3,10,11. ("Offer Unto God Thanksgiving," February 11, 1900.) White Estate Washington, D. C. August 1, 1979 {9MR 265.2}[2]
