今日的生活-第64章
“他们正用石头打的时候,司提反呼吁主说,求主耶稣接收我的灵魂。又跪下大声喊着说,主啊!不要将这罪归于他们。说了这话,就睡了”(徒7:59,60)。{ML 67.1}[1]

Heroes for God
And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.Acts 7:59, 60.{ML 67.1}[1]

司提反是上帝所爱的人。他努力拯救生灵归向基督,成功地为被钉而复活的救主作见证,结果牺牲了性命。……真理的仇敌把对上帝儿子的敌意发泄在祂的门徒身上。他们受不了听到有关他们所钉的那一位。司提反勇敢地作证使他们怒气填胸。……{ML 67.2}[2]
今日的生活-第64章
Stephen, a man loved by God, and one who was laboring to win souls to Christ, lost his life because he bore a triumphant testimony of the crucified and risen Saviour.... The hatred which the enemies of truth had shown for the Son of God, they revealed in their hatred for His followers. They could not bear to hear of the One whom they had crucified, and that Stephen should bear so bold a testimony filled them with rage....{ML 67.2}[2]

当权的人从司提反的脸上所发出的光中,得到了来自上帝的凭据,但他们竟藐视这凭据。但愿他们能够觉悟!但愿他们能够悔改!可是他们不愿意。(MS.1900){ML 67.3}[3]
今日的生活-第64章
In the light which they saw in the face of Stephen, the men in authority had evidence from God. But they despised the evidence. O that they would heed! O that they would repent! But they would not.6{ML 67.3}[3]
今日的生活-第64章
当司提反蒙召为基督的缘故受苦时,他没有动摇。他从逼迫他的人凶狠的脸色上看出自己所面临的厄运,毫不犹豫地将他所要传给世人的最后信息传给他们。他举目定睛望天说:“我看见天开了,人子站在上帝的右边”(徒7:56)。全天庭都关注这件事。耶稣从祂父的宝座上站起来,俯身注视着祂仆人的脸,使他脸上显出祂自己荣耀的光辉。人们看见司提反脸上发光,仿佛天使的脸,便惊讶不已。上帝的荣耀照在他身上。正当他仰瞻主的面时,基督的仇敌用石头将他打死了。我们是否认为这样的死太残忍了呢?但是他视死如归,用最后一口气向上帝祈求饶恕迫害他的人。{ML 67.3}[4]
今日的生活-第64章
When Stephen was called upon to suffer for Christ’s sake, he did not waver. He read his fate in the cruel faces of his persecutors, and he did not hesitate to give to them the last message which he was to bear to men. He looked up and said, “I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.” All heaven was interested in this case. Jesus, rising from the throne of His Father, was leaning over, looking upon the face of His servant, and imparting to his countenance the beams of His own glory, and men were astonished as they saw Stephen’s face lighted up as if it had been the face of an angel. The glory of God shone upon him, and while he was beholding the face of his Lord, the enemies of Christ stoned him to death. Would we not think that a hard death to die? But the fear of death was gone, and his last breath was spent in petitioning the Lord to forgive his persecutors.{ML 67.4}[4]

耶稣已尽其所能地维护祂的儿女。祂希望我们追随祂的脚踪行;因为我们若这样作,就与基督和祂的荣耀有分了。(RH.1890.4.29){ML 67.4}[5]
今日的生活-第64章
Jesus has made it as easy as He possibly can for His children, and He wants us to follow in His footsteps; for if we do, we shall be partakers of Christ and His glory.7{ML 67.5}[5]
