十月二十六日最后的战斗

The Final Battle, October 26

　　“看哪！我来像贼一样。那警醒、看守衣服，免得赤身而行，叫人见他羞耻的有福了”（启16:15）。

Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. Revelation 16:15. {TDG 308.1}

　　一场可怕的争战在我们面前。我们正在接近上帝全能者的大日的争战。那一直被执掌着的种种因素，将要被放开。施恩的天使正在收拢翅膀，准备走下王位，而把这个世界留给撒但控制。他从起初就是凶手，是毁灭者。{TDG 308.1}

A terrible contest is before us. We are nearing the battle of the great day of God Almighty. That which has been held in control is to be let loose. The angel of mercy is folding its wings, preparing to step down from the golden throne and leave the world to the control of Satan, the king it has chosen, a murderer and a destroyer from the beginning. {TDG 308.2}

　　地上的执政掌权者在恶毒地反抗着天上的上帝。他们对那些侍奉上帝的人充满了仇恨，而且不久，很快，就要进行善与恶之间的最后大争战。这个地球就是战场——最后争夺和最后胜利的现场。在这里，就是撒但如此长久以来率领人们反抗上帝的地方，叛乱将永远平息。{TDG 308.2}

The principalities and powers of earth are in bitter revolt against the God of heaven. They are filled with hatred against all who serve Him, and soon, very soon, is to be fought the last great battle between good and evil. The earth is to be the battlefield—the scene of the final contest and the final victory. Here, where for so long Satan has led men against God, rebellion is to be forever suppressed. {TDG 308.3}

　　基督以人的形状来到世界，以便成为我们救恩的元帅，使我们不至被撒但的势力所胜。当仇敌似乎要显著地胜过公义时，上帝凭着祂的仁慈和大能挫败其诡计。 {TDG 308.3}

Christ came to this earth in human form that He might stand as the Captain of our salvation, so that we should not be overcome by Satan’s power. And when the enemy has seemed to be gaining a signal victory over righteousness, God has been working in mercy and power to counteract his designs. {TDG 308.4}

　　撒但既决心要从人身上涂抹上帝的形像，就积极作工，要在人眼前把上帝掩盖起来。他不是公开活动，而是秘密地把属人的和属上帝的，假的和真的东西掺杂起来，如此设法制造混乱和痛苦。但是上帝的慈怜却以相称的权能彰显，要抵消这种邪恶的活动，揭露仇敌的阴谋诡计。{TDG 308.4}

Determined to efface the image of God in man, Satan works with an intensity of effort to hide God from view. Not openly does he work, but secretly, mingling the human and the divine, the spurious and the genuine, so seeking to bring confusion and distress. But in proportionate power divine mercy is revealed to counteract this wicked working, and bring to light the enemy’s hidden purposes. {TDG 308.5}

　　上帝的子民必须勇敢坚定地为真理作见证，用笔和口展示上帝的旨意。他们要在各方各处宣传上帝圣言的信息，唤醒男男女女了解真理。……{TDG 308.5}

God’s people are to bear a bold, decided testimony for the truth, unfolding the purposes of God by the witness of pen and voice. In place after place they are to proclaim the message of God’s Word, arousing men and women to comprehend the truth.... {TDG 308.6}

　　完美的真理是现实的，不是过眼云烟。真光从上帝的话中放射出来。上帝呼吁祂的子民就近祂。但愿没有人介入上帝和祂的子民之间。基督正在叩你的心门，想要进来。你愿意让祂进来吗?（《信函》1901年153号，10月26日，致澳大利亚的弟兄姊妹们）{TDG 308.6}

There is a reality in sound doctrine. It is not as a vapor, which passes away. Light is to shine forth from the Word of God. God calls upon His people to draw near to Him. Let no one interpose between Him and His people. Christ is knocking at the door of the heart, seeking for entrance. Will you let Him in?—Letter 153, October 26, 1901, to Brethren and Sisters in Australia. {TDG 308.7}
