“这样,凡好树都结好果子,惟独坏树结坏果子。……所以凭着他们的果子,就可以认出他们来”(太7:17-20)。[1]

The Life Is Transformed
Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.... Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.Matthew 7:17-20.{WGD 183.1}[1]
黎明的灵修-第181章
不管一个人口里讲得多么动听,他的心中若不充满对于上帝和同胞的爱,他就不是基督的真门徒。虽然他拥有强大的信心,甚至有能力施行神迹,但若没有爱,他的信心仍是没有价值的。他纵然表现慷慨的心,将一切所有的周济穷人,但如果不是本着真实的爱心,而是出于别的动机,这种行为也决得不到上帝的赞许。在热心的冲动之下,他或许竟能为道殉身,但若不是出于爱心,上帝仍要算他为一个迷信的狂热者,或野心的伪善者。(5T 168)[2]
黎明的灵修-第181章
No matter how high his profession, he whose heart is not imbued with love for God and for his fellow-men, is not a disciple of Christ. Though he should possess great faith, and even have power to work miracles, yet without love his faith would be worthless. He might display great liberality, but should he from some other motive than genuine love, bestow all his goods to feed the poor, the act would not commend him to the favor of God. In his zeal he might even meet a martyr’s death, yet if destitute of the gold of love he would be regarded by God as a deluded enthusiast or an ambitious hypocrite.—Testimonies for the Church 5:168,{WGD 183.2}[2]
黎明的灵修-第181章
一个真基督徒安静而言行一致的纯洁生活,有一种感人的力量,远远超过言语的力量。人本身的行为,比他的话有更大的影响力。……我们的品格和为人决定我们对别人的影响。为了使别人信服基督恩典的能力,我们必须在自己的心里和生活中体验这种能力。我们所传救人的福音,必须先让我们自己的灵魂得救。在这个充满怀疑的世界上,我们只有通过活泼的信心,以基督为个人的救主,才能感化别人。我们若想把罪人从时代的急流中拉出来,自己的脚就必须坚立在磐石基督耶稣之上。基督教的标志不是外表的记号,不是佩戴十字架或冠冕,而是表现出人与上帝的联合。(MH 469、470)[3]
黎明的灵修-第181章
There is an eloquence far more powerful than the eloquence of words in the quiet, consistent life of a pure, true Christian. What a man is has more influence than what he says.... It is our own character and experience that determine our influence upon others. In order to convince others of the power of Christ’s grace, we must know its power in our own hearts and lives. The gospel we present for the saving of souls must be the gospel by which our own souls are saved. Only through a living faith in Christ as a personal Saviour is it possible to make our influence felt in a skeptical world. If we would draw sinners out of the swift-running current, our own feet must be firmly set upon the Rock, Christ Jesus. The badge of Christianity is not an outward sign, not the wearing of a cross or a crown, but it is that which reveals the union of man with God.—The Ministry of Healing, 469, 470.{WGD 183.3}[3]
