奋斗与勇敢-第144章
(撒上9:1,2)
“在以色列人中没有一个能比他的”(撒上9:2)。{CC 149.1}[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第144章
1 Samuel 9:1-2[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第144章
这个将来君王的人品正可以满足那引起众人立王之愿望的傲心。……扫罗正当壮年,仪容高贵,体格魁梧,看上去似乎是一个生成作领袖的人物。他虽然具有这些表面上的优点,但对于那些构成真智慧的更高品质,他却是很缺乏的。他在幼年时没有学会管理自己粗暴急躁的癖性;他从来没有感受上帝恩典使人更新的能力。(PP608){CC 149.2}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第144章
There was not among the children of Israel a goodlier person than he. 1 Samuel 9:2. {CC 149.1}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第144章
上帝既然赋予扫罗重任,就必赐给他神圣的光照。他将接受一个新的呼召。有上帝的灵降在他身上,把他变成一个新人。上帝赐给扫罗一颗新心,以及和以前不同的思维,目标和愿望。这种光照,和对上帝的属灵认识,使他处于有利的地位,把他的意志与耶和华的旨意连在一起。……{CC 149.3}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第144章
The personal qualities of the future monarch were such as to gratify that pride of heart which prompted the desire for a king.... Of noble and dignified bearing, in the prime of life, comely and tall, he appeared like one born to command. Yet with these external attractions, Saul was destitute of those higher qualities that constitute true wisdom. He had not in youth learned to control his rash, impetuous passions; he had never felt the renewing power of divine grace.47 {CC 149.2}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第144章
如果扫罗让自己的才能一直受上帝所支配,他就会拥有治理国家的心志和影响力。但他本来可以行善的才能若屈服于撒但的权势,就会被撒但所利用,使他发挥广泛的邪恶影响力。由于上帝曾赐给他超然的脑力和心力,他可以比别人更加坚决地维护,更加恶毒和顽强地实施他不圣洁的计划。(2BC.1013){CC 149.4}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第144章
The Lord would not leave Saul to be placed in a position of trust without divine enlightenment. He was to have a new calling, and the Spirit of the Lord came upon him. The effect was that he was changed into a new man. The Lord gave Saul a new spirit, other thoughts, other aims and desires than he had previously had. This enlightenment, with the spiritual knowledge of God, placing him on vantage ground, was to bind his will to the will of Jehovah.... {CC 149.3}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第144章
扫罗若依靠自己的力量和判断,就会意气从事,犯下大错。但他若保持谦卑,不断寻求上帝智慧的指教,让上帝为他开路,他就会光荣而成功地履行他的崇高职责。在上帝恩典的影响下,他的每一优点都要得到加强,不良的秉性将失去它的力量。这就是上帝为一切献身给祂的人所要做的工作。(2BC.1016,1017){CC 149.5}[5]
奋斗与勇敢-第144章
Saul had a mind and influence capable of governing a kingdom, if his powers had been submitted to the control of God, but the very endowments that qualified him for doing good could be used by Satan, when surrendered to his power, and would enable him to exert widespread influence for evil. He could be more sternly vindictive, more injurious and determined in prosecuting his unholy designs, than could others, because of the superior powers of mind and heart that had been given him of God.48 {CC 149.4}[5]
