Christ, the Way to Victory, August 16
从心出发-第228章
“撒但,退去吧!因为经上记着说”(太4:10)。[1]{FH 240.1}
从心出发-第228章
Away with you, Satan! For it is written.Matthew 4:10.{FH 240.1}[1]
从心出发-第228章
撒但在第一个试探中失败了。接着他把基督带到了耶路撒冷圣殿的顶上,要祂从令人晕眩的高度跳下去,藉以证明祂上帝儿子的身份。他说:“你若是上帝的儿子,可以跳下去,因为经上记着说:主要为你吩咐祂的使者用手托着你,免得你的脚碰在石头上”(太4:6)。但基督若这么做就是僭越自恃,所以祂不肯屈从,便回答说:“不可试探主你的上帝”(太4:7)。那试探者又失败了。基督仍是胜利者。[2]{FH 240.2}
从心出发-第228章
Satan had been defeated in the first temptation. He next took Christ to the pinnacle of the temple at Jerusalem and asked Him to prove His Sonship to God by throwing Himself down from the dizzy height. “If thou be the Son of God,” he said, “cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.” But to do this would be presumption on the part of Christ, and He would not yield. “It is written again,” He replied, “thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.” Again the tempter was baffled. Christ was victor still.{FH 240.2}[2]

自恃乃是一种常见的试探。当撒但以此袭击我们时,他几乎百战百胜。那些自称参战反对罪恶的人,经常想也不想就跳进这种试探里。需要一个神迹才能把他们救出来而不受玷污。上帝赐下宝贵的应许,不是要我们加强僭越自是的行为,也不是要我们在不必要地冲入危险时依赖祂的应许。上帝要我们谦卑地依赖祂的指导。“行路的人也不能定自己的脚步”(耶10:23)。在上帝里才是我们的兴旺和生命。……“当将你的事交托耶和华,并倚靠祂,祂就必成全”(诗37:5)。作为上帝的儿女,我们要保持始终如一的基督徒品格。[3]{FH 240.3}
从心出发-第228章
Presumption is a common temptation, and when Satan assails us with this, he gains the victory almost every time. Those who claim to be enlisted in the warfare against evil frequently plunge without thought into temptation from which it would require a miracle to bring them forth unsullied. God’s precious promises are not given to strengthen us in a presumptuous course or to rely upon when we rush needlessly into danger. The Lord requires us to move with a humble dependence upon His guidance. “It is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.” In God is our prosperity and our life.... “Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.” As children of God, we are to maintain a consistent Christian character.{FH 240.3}[3]
从心出发-第228章
当你祈求……不让你进入试探时,要记得你的工作并没有随着祷告结束。你必须尽可能地藉着抗拒试探来回应你的祷告。要求耶稣为你做你自己做不了的事。有上帝的话作我们的向导,耶稣作我们的教师,我们就必知道上帝的要求,晓得撒但的计谋。[4]{FH 240.4}
从心出发-第228章
While you pray ... that you may not be led into temptation, remember that your work does not end with prayer. As far as possible you must answer your own prayers by resisting temptation. Ask Jesus to do for you that which you cannot do for yourself. With God’s Word for our guide and Jesus for our teacher, we need not be ignorant of God’s requirements or of Satan’s devices.{FH 240.4}[4]
从心出发-第228章
“魔鬼又带祂上了一座最高的山,将世上的万国与万国的荣华都指给祂看,对祂说:‘祢若俯伏拜我,我就把这一切都赐给祢’”(太4:8,9)。于是神性透过人性闪耀出来。基督说:“撒但,退去吧!因为经上记着说:当拜主你的上帝,单要事奉祂”(太4:10)。撒但没有再进行试探了。他作为一个战败的仇敌离开了基督的面。——《青年导报》,1899年12月21日。[5]{FH 240.5}
从心出发-第228章
“Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; and saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.” Then divinity flashed through humanity. “Get thee hence, Satan,” Christ said, “for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.” Satan did not then present another temptation. He left the presence of Christ a conquered foe.—Youth’s Instructor, December 21, 1899.{FH 240.5}[5]
