Equipment for Service
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth.Romans 1:16.{WGD 288.1}[1]
黎明的灵修-第286章
上帝不能使用那些在危险的境遇中——正当圣工需要众人发挥力量、勇敢和影响的时候——不敢主持正义的人。祂所要的,乃是一班敢于同罪恶进行斗争,肯“与那些执政的、掌权的、管辖这幽暗世界的、以及天空属灵气的恶魔争战”的人。对于这一等人,祂将要对他们说:“好,你这又良善又忠心的仆人;……可以进来享受你主人的快乐”(太25:23)。(PK 142)[2]
黎明的灵修-第286章
God cannot use men who, in time of peril, when the strength, courage, and influence of all are needed, are afraid to take a firm stand for the right. He calls for men who will do faithful battle against wrong, warring against principalities and powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. It is to such as these that He will speak the words: “Well done, good and faithful servant; ... enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.”—Prophets and Kings, 142.{WGD 288.2}[2]

盼望和勇敢乃是人在侍奉上帝的事上达到完全地步所不可或缺的。这两种美德乃是信心的果子。灰心丧志是有罪而不合理的。上帝能够而且愿意“格外”(来6:17)赐给祂仆人所需要的能力来应付考验和试炼。祂圣工之仇敌的计谋固然周密稳妥;但上帝定能推翻最恶毒的计谋。这乃是按照祂自己所定的时候和方法而行的,就是在祂看到祂仆人的信心已经受到充分考验之后。(PK 164)[3]
黎明的灵修-第286章
Hope and courage are essential to perfect service for God. These are the fruit of faith. Despondency is sinful and unreasonable. God is able and willing “more abundantly” to bestow upon His servants the strength they need for test and trial. The plans of the enemies of His work may seem to be well laid and firmly established; but God can overthrow the strongest of these. And this He does in His own time and way, when He sees that the faith of His servants has been sufficiently tested.—Prophets and Kings, 164.{WGD 288.3}[3]
黎明的灵修-第286章
上帝藉着希伯来青年所表现忠于节制原则的经验,向今日的青年说话。今日世上需要一班象但以理那样为正义的事业而敢作敢为的人。清洁的良心,坚强的双手,无畏的勇气,都是必需的。为了应付邪恶与道德之间的斗争,他们必须有不息不倦的警觉。因为撒但要用各种引诱的方式,在放纵食欲的事上试探每一个人。……智力、体力和长寿,都有赖于不变的定律。由于顺从这些定律,人就可以制胜自己。(PK 488)[4]
黎明的灵修-第286章
Through the fidelity to the principles of temperance shown by the Hebrew youth, God is speaking to the youth of today. There is need of men who, like Daniel, will do and dare for the cause of right. Pure hearts, strong hands, fearless courage, are needed; for the warfare between vice and virtue calls for ceaseless vigilance. To every soul Satan comes with temptation in many alluring forms on the point of indulgence of appetite.... Intellectual power, physical stamina, and the length of life depend upon immutable laws. Through obedience to these laws, man may stand conqueror of himself.—Prophets and Kings, 488.{WGD 288.4}[4]
