奋斗与勇敢-第123章
(士7:4-23)
“耶和华对基甸说:人还是过多;你要带他们下到水旁,我好在那里为你试试他们;我指点谁说,这人可以同你去,他就可以同你去;我指点谁说,这人不可同你去,他就不可同你去”(士7:4)。{CC 128.1}[1]

奋斗与勇敢-第123章
于是基甸带他们下到水旁,好象是随时就要上阵去与仇敌作战。有少数的人匆匆忙忙地捧一点水在手中,边走边舔;但几乎全数的人都不慌不忙地跪下喝水。一万人之中只有三百人是用手捧水的;而且只有这三百人蒙选,其余的人则被遣散回家去了。{CC 128.2}[2]

And the Lord said unto Gideon, The people are yet too many; bring them down unto the water, and I will try them for thee there: and it shall be, that of whom I say unto thee, This shall go with thee, the same shall go with thee; and of whomsoever I say unto thee, This shall not go with thee, the same shall not go. Judges 7:4. {CC 128.1}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第123章
人的品格往往是在最简单的事情上受到试验的。在危机四伏之际,凡只顾满足自己需要的人,是不能在紧急的时候负什么责任的。耶和华在祂的工作上没有地位留给闲懒怠惰和纵情任性的人。主所拣选的是少数不愿单顾自己需要而放弃本分的人。这三百个人不但具有勇敢和自制的精神,同时也是大有信心的。他们没有因拜偶像而污秽自己。上帝能指引这样的人,并用他们去成就拯救以色列人的工作。成功不在乎人数多。上帝能用少数人施行拯救,象用多数的人一样。上帝在侍奉祂的人身上所得的荣耀,不一定在于他们的人数,而是在于他们的品格。(PP549){CC 128.3}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第123章
The people were led down to the waterside, expecting to make an immediate advance upon the enemy. A few hastily took a little water in the hand and sucked it up as they went on; but nearly all bowed upon their knees, and leisurely drank from the surface of the stream. Those who took of the water in their hands were but three hundred out of ten thousand; yet these were selected; all the rest were permitted to return to their homes. {CC 128.2}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第123章
凡是愿意做基督十字架精兵的人,务须穿上盔甲准备战斗。他们不应害怕威胁和危险。他们在危险中必须谨慎小心,但又要坚定而勇敢地面对敌人,为上帝而战。基督门徒的献身必须完全。父母、妻儿、房屋、田地和一切所有的都必须置于上帝的工作和事业之下。他必须甘心乐意地耐心忍受上帝的旨意让他们经历的一切。他最后的赏赐将是与基督分享永恒荣耀的宝座。(2BC.1003){CC 128.4}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第123章
By the simplest means character is often tested. Those who in time of peril were intent upon supplying their own wants were not the men to be trusted in an emergency. The Lord has no place in His work for the indolent and self-indulgent. The men of His choice were the few who would not permit their own wants to delay them in the discharge of duty. The three hundred chosen men not only possessed courage and self-control, but they were men of faith. They had not defiled themselves with idolatry. God could direct them, and through them He could work deliverance for Israel. Success does not depend upon numbers. God can deliver by few as well as by many. He is honored not so much by the great numbers as by the character of those who serve Him.3 {CC 128.3}[4]
