开朗的宗教-第216章
悔改这种工作,多数的人还不赏识。要把属世的、喜爱罪恶的心意转变过来,使之了解基督无可言喻的爱,祂恩典的美妙,和上帝的优美,以致使人被神圣之爱所充满,被天庭的奥秘所吸引,这种工作确实不是小事。何时人明白了这些事,以往的生活就必显出是可憎可恨的了。他恨恶罪恶,在上帝面前破碎己心,接受基督为他心灵的生命与喜乐。他抛弃从前的快乐。他有了新的心思,新的感情,新的兴趣,新的意志;他的忧愁、愿望、和爱全都是新的了。肉体的情欲、眼目的情欲、并今生的骄傲,在从前都看为比基督更重要,现在却转离了,而以基督作为自己生命的至宝与喜乐的冠冕。从前看不到什么优美的天国,如今看到了它的富足和荣耀;他默想它是自己将来的家乡,在那里他将要看见、爱戴和赞美曾用自己的宝血救赎了他的那一位。(2T .294)[3]
开朗的宗教-第216章
Conversion is a work that most do not appreciate. It is not a small matter to transform an earthly, sin-loving mind, and bring it to understand the unspeakable love of Christ, the charms of His grace, and the excellency of God, so that the soul shall be imbued with divine love, and captivated with the heavenly mysteries. When he understands these things, his former life appears disgusting and hateful. He hates sin, and, breaking his heart before God, he embraces Christ as the life and joy of the soul. He renounces his former pleasures. He has a new mind, new affections, new interest, new will; his sorrows, and desires, and love are all new. The lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye, and the pride of life, which have heretofore been preferred before Christ, are now turned from, and Christ is the charm of his life, the crown of his rejoicing. Heaven, which once possessed no charms, is now viewed in its riches and glory; and he contemplates it as his future home, where he shall see, love, and praise the One who hath redeemed him by His precious blood.—Testimonies for the Church 2:294.{RRe 217.3}[3]

从前被认为枯燥无味的圣经,如今却成为他研究的对象和谋士,是一封上帝写给他的信,带有“亘古常在者”的名号。(2T .294)[4]
开朗的宗教-第216章
The word of God, which was dull and uninteresting, is now chosen as his study, the man of his counsel. It is as a letter written to him from God, bearing the inscription of the Eternal.—Testimonies for the Church 2:295.{RRe 217.4}[4]

他从前所厌倦的圣洁的工作,如今却喜爱了。(2T .294)[5]

The works of holiness, which appeared wearisome, are now his delight.—Testimonies for the Church 2:294.{RRe 217.5}[5]
