8月25日 属世的享乐必要过去
开朗的宗教-第238章
Worldly Pleasure Will Pass Away, August 25
开朗的宗教-第238章
“不要爱世界,和世界上的事。人若爱世界,爱父的心就不在他里面了。……这世界、和其上的情欲,都要过去;惟独遵行上帝旨意的,是永远常存”(约壹2:15,17)。[1]
开朗的宗教-第238章
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him....{RRe 239.1}[1]
开朗的宗教-第238章
在自称是等候主的人中,甚至也有是爱慕世界的。怀藏图谋富贵的野心。当基督论到在上帝的大日来临之时,祂形容这等情形好像网罗临到一切住在地上的人。这个世界就是他们的家乡。他们扩张业务来赚取属世的财宝。他们建筑豪华的住宅,配以各种美好的设备;他们追求衣饰上的享乐,并放纵食欲。世上的事物乃是他们的偶像。这些东西横阻在基督与人之间,以致那些纷纷迫临我们的严肃可怕的事实,反而显得模糊而分辨不出了。(5T 456)[2]
开朗的宗教-第238章
And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.1 John 2:15,17.{RRe 239.2}[2]
开朗的宗教-第238章
如果我们多思考基督和天国,就必在为主作战时获得有力的鼓舞和支持。当我们默想那即将成为我们家乡之美地的荣耀时,骄傲和爱世界的心就丧失其势力了。除了基督的荣美之外,一切属世的吸引力,皆显得毫无价值。(MYP113)[3]
开朗的宗教-第238章
There are lovers of the world, even among those who profess to be waiting for the Lord. There is ambition for riches and honor. Christ describes this class when He declares that the day of God is to come as a snare upon all that dwell upon the earth. This world is their home. They make it their business to secure earthly treasures. They erect costly dwellings, and furnish them with every good thing; they find pleasure in dress and the indulgence of appetite. The things of the world are their idols. These interpose between the soul and Christ, and the solemn and awful realities that are crowding upon us are but dimly seen and faintly realized.—Testimonies for the Church 5:456.{RRe 239.3}[3]
开朗的宗教-第238章
基督赎民的友谊,要比任何属世的友谊更美。住在主为我们所预备的住宅,胜过住在地上最华美的宫殿。救主对祂忠心仆人的称赞,要比任何世上的称赞更好:“你们这蒙我父赐福的,可来承受那创世以来为你们所预备的国”(太25:34)。(COL374)[4]
开朗的宗教-第238章
If we would permit our minds to dwell more upon Christ and the heavenly world, we should find a powerful stimulus and support in fighting the battles of the Lord. Pride and love of the world will lose their power as we contemplate the glories of that better land so soon to be our home. Beside the loveliness of Christ, all earthly attractions will seem of little worth.—Messages to Young People, 113.{RRe 239.4}[4]
