“上帝啊!我的愚昧祢原知道;我的罪愆不能隐瞒”(诗69:5)。[1]

Conviction of Sin
O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee.Psalm 69:5.{WGD 222.1}[1]
黎明的灵修-第220章
我们也许会因自己没有犯别人所犯的许多罪而洋洋自得。然而我们即使在品格上有某些优点,仍存在一个弱点。我们的心与罪恶仍藕断丝连。我们的侍奉是分心的,对上帝说:“有的给祢,有的留给自己。”上帝儿女的人必须查出自己所喜爱和放纵的罪,让上帝将这罪从他心中除去。他必须战胜这个罪,因为它在上帝眼中并非小事。[2]
黎明的灵修-第220章
We may flatter ourselves that we are free from many things of which others are guilty; but if we have some strong points of character, and but one weak point, there is yet a communion between sin and the soul. The heart is divided in its service, and says, “Some of self and some of Thee.” The child of God must search out the sin which he has petted and indulged himself in, and permit God to cut it out of his heart. He must overcome that one sin; for it is not a trifling matter in the sight of God.{WGD 222.2}[2]

有人说:“我一点儿也没有嫉妒心,只是易动怒,开粗口而已。但我每次发脾气之后,总是会懊悔的。”又有人则说:“我虽然有这样或那样的过错,但我实在藐视某个熟人所表现的卑鄙行为。”主并没有为我们列出罪恶的轻重,使我们视一些罪为无关紧要,为害不大,而另一些罪则较为严重,危害也大。[3]
黎明的灵修-第220章
One says, “I am not the least jealous, but then I do get provoked and say mean things, although I am always sorry after giving way to temper.” Another says, “I have this fault or that, but then I just despise such and such meanness as is manifested by a certain person of my acquaintance.” The Lord has not given us a list of graded sins, so that we may reckon some as of little consequence, and say that they will do but little harm, while others are of greater magnitude and will do much harm.{WGD 222.3}[3]
黎明的灵修-第220章
一根链条的牢度相当于它最弱的一环。从整体上看,我们可以说这条链子是好的,但只要有一个环节薄弱,这条链子就不牢固了。每一个进入上帝国度的人都要研究如何得胜。不要容急噪的话脱口而出。不要以为你的品格得不到正确的评价。这种念头会削弱你的影响,产生不良的后果,使别人轻看你。不要自以为是殉道者,而要持住基督的应许:“我的恩典够你用的。”(MYP 91)[4]
黎明的灵修-第220章
A chain is no stronger than is its weakest link. We might pronounce such a chain good on the whole, but if one link is weak the chain cannot be depended on.... That impatient word quivering on your lips must be left unspoken. That thought that your character is not rightly estimated must be put from you; for it weakens your influence, and works out the sure result, making you of light estimation in the minds of others. You should overcome the idea that you are a martyr, and lay claim to the promise of Christ, who says, “My grace is sufficient for thee.”—Messages to Young People, 91.{WGD 222.4}[4]
