开朗的宗教-第271章

  “我看见彷佛有玻璃海，其中有火搀杂。又看见那些胜了兽和兽的像并它名字数目的人，都站在玻璃海上，拿着上帝的琴，唱上帝仆人摩西的歌，和羔羊的歌，说：主上帝全能者啊，祢的作为大哉！奇哉！万世之王啊，祢的道途义哉！诚哉”（启15:2,3）！[1]

  I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God. And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are Thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are Thy ways, Thou King of saints.Revelation 15:2, 3.{RRe 272.1}[1]

  在进入上帝的圣城之前，救主要把胜利的徽号赐给跟从祂的人，并将王室的标记授与他们。光明灿烂的行列要在他们的王四围集成中空的方阵。祂的形体尊严高大，超乎众天使和圣徒之上。祂的脸向他们表示慈祥的爱。那数不过来的蒙赎群众目不转睛地注视着祂众目要仰望那从前“面貌比别人悴憔，形容比世人枯槁”者的荣耀。耶稣要亲自用右手把冠冕戴在每一个得救的人头上。每个人都有一顶冠冕，上面刻着自己的“新名”（启2:17）和“归耶和华为圣”的字样。有胜利者的棕树枝和光亮的金琴交在每一个人手中。当司令的天使带头奏乐时，人人的手便要巧妙地拨动琴弦，发出和谐嘹亮的甜美音乐。各人心中洋溢着莫可言宣的欢乐热情，一齐扬起感恩的颂赞：“祂爱我们，用自己的血使我们脱离罪恶，又使我们成为国民，作祂父上帝的祭司，但愿荣耀权能归给祂，直到永永远远”（启1:5-6）。（GC 645）[2]

开朗的宗教-第271章

  Before entering the city of God, the Saviour bestows upon His followers the emblems of victory, and invests them with the insignia of their royal state. The glittering ranks are drawn up, in the form of a hollow square, about their King, whose form rises in majesty high above saint and angel, whose countenance beams upon them full of benignant love. Throughout the unnumbered host of the redeemed, every glance is fixed upon Him, every eye beholds His glory whose “visage was so marred more than any man, and His form more than the sons of men.” Upon the heads of the overcomers, Jesus with His own right hand places the crown of glory. For each there is a crown, bearing his own “new name,” and the inscription, “Holiness to the Lord.” In every hand are placed the victor’s palm and the shining harp. Then, as the commanding angels strike the note, every hand sweeps the harp strings with skilful touch, awaking sweet music in rich, melodious strains. Rapture unutterable thrills every heart, and each voice is raised in grateful praise: “Unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood, and hath made us kings and priests unto God and His Father; to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever.”—The Great Controversy, 645.{RRe 272.2}[2]
