今日偕主行-第13章
“人子啊,我立你作以色列家守望的人,所以你要听我口中的话,替我警戒他们”(结3:17)。
今日偕主行-第13章
Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me. Ezekiel 3:17. {TDG 20.1}
今日偕主行-第13章
上帝已经为你们各人安排了职位。祂不但要你们作忠心的哨兵,更要你们作周到认真的工作人员。决不可漠不关心,不可粗心大意,闲懒怠惰;万不可在岗位上打盹睡觉,也决不可不按照那托付给你的位分克尽厥职。{TDG 20.1}
今日偕主行-第13章
God has a position of duty for each one of you. He requires you to be not only faithful sentinels, but thorough workmen. Never become uninterested, never careless and inactive; never sleep at your post, and never fail to perform your exact duty in accordance with your position of trust. {TDG 20.2}
今日偕主行-第13章
所需要的就是:爽快、敏捷、和热诚的努力,深切的关怀,以及坚定的忠贞。你们应当学会随召随到,立即从事工作。那分派给我们的工作时间还有多久,我们并不知道。这是只有上帝知道的秘密,而且是为了明智的美意,才不让我们晓得。但是对于我们所享有的工作时间,我们却应当好好利用,正像那将来必须交账的人一般。啊,认真地想想吧!从永恒的观点来看,在我们这个世界上,为要唤醒那轻率、疏忽和愚妄之人的心,该有多少的工作要做,才可以使他们认识上帝的律法,并使他们感觉到:为了谋求自己的福利,为了荣耀上帝,就必须遵守这些律法。因为违背律法,不但会带来极大的痛苦,更会丧失今世的生命和来世不朽的生命。你们应当彻底地考虑这事,并要感悟到有多少男男女女的福佑或者灾祸,竟全在乎你们呢。{TDG 20.2}
今日偕主行-第13章
There is need of alacrity, promptness, even earnest energy, deep interest, and unwavering fidelity. You should learn to spring to the work at the call of duty. How long will be our allotted time to work, we know not. This is a secret with God, and for wise purposes, withheld from us. But what time we have to labor, let us employ it as those who must give an account. Oh, think earnestly, and in view of eternity, how much there is to be done in our world to arouse the mind of the careless, inattentive, and ignorant to become acquainted with the laws of God, and make them feel the necessity for their own good and God’s glory, of obedience to these laws. For transgression brings, not only great suffering, but loss of life in this world, and immortal life in the next world. You should consider this matter thoroughly, and feel how much the bliss or woe of men and women is dependent upon you. {TDG 20.3}
今日偕主行-第13章
你们的忠心可以拯救许多的生灵,而疏忽大意不负责则可能会导致你们的同胞今世与来世生命的丧失。由于你们的忠贞尽责,由于你们在职位上的警醒不倦,你们大可防止许多不幸和许多违犯上帝律法的事。……我们必须兴起如同一人,靠赖上帝的权柄和能力,开启我们的感官认明当前的种种需要。……{TDG 20.3}
今日偕主行-第13章
Faithfulness on your part may save many souls, while negligence and carelessness may result in the loss to your fellow creatures of both the present and the future life. You can prevent much misery and much transgression of God’s law by your fidelity, by being wide awake at your post of duty.... We must arise as one, and in the power and strength of God, open our senses to the demands of the present time.... {TDG 20.4}
今日偕主行-第13章
要凭着信心向上帝呼求,好使祂藉着祂为那般因无知而受苦的人所安排的通道,倾降祂的明光和祂的恩典。当你们认真殷勤地警醒祈祷,好查禁错行并谨防放荡与流行的错误时,就凭着活泼的信心把握住那可能为你们拥有的能力,好使你们一切的工作都蒙福。你们尽可收集亮光、知识和能力;你们的感化力也可以扩散广布。……凡你们所担负的责任,都必为你们加强防卫并且增添力量,以便作更新的努力,顺利成功地推进工作。(《信函》1879年4a号,1月12日,致巴特尔克里克疗养院的两位青年医生){TDG 20.4}
今日偕主行-第13章
Cry to God in faith, that He may pour out His light and His grace through the channels which He has appointed for good to those who are suffering for want of knowledge. While you pray and watch with earnest diligence to suppress wrong and stand guard against dissipation and fashionable errors, lay hold by living faith of the strength which may be yours to bless all your labors. You may gather light, knowledge, and power; and your influence may be diffusive.... Every responsibility you bear will fortify and strengthen you to make renewed efforts and push forward the work successfully.—Letter 4a, January 12, 1879, to two young physicians at Battle Creek Sanitarium. {TDG 20.5}
