Christ’s Love Is Like the Father’s Love, February 2
黎明的灵修-第33章
“我爱你们,正如父爱我一样;你们要常在我的爱里。你们若遵守我的命令,就常在我的爱里;正如我遵守了我父的命令,常在祂的爱里”(约15:9,10)。[1]
黎明的灵修-第33章
God Is Love
As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.”John 15:9, 10.{WGD 35.1}[1]
黎明的灵修-第33章
基督降世是要向世人显明上帝是爱,满有慈悲,怜悯,同情的上帝。撒但所尽力笼罩上帝宝座的浓云黑雾,被世界的救赎主驱散了,天父又再度向世人显出是生命之光。[2]
黎明的灵修-第33章
Christ came to reveal God to the world as a God of love, full of mercy, tenderness, and compassion. The thick darkness with which Satan had endeavored to enshroud the throne of Deity was swept away by the world’s Redeemer, and the Father was again manifest to men as the light of life.{WGD 35.2}[2]
黎明的灵修-第33章
当腓力来到耶稣的面前请求说:“求主将父显给我们看,我们就知足了。”救主回答他说:“腓力,我与你们同在这样长久,你还不认识我么?人看见了我,就是看见了父;你怎么说,将父显给我们看呢”(约14:8,9)?基督宣称自己是奉派来世上充当父的代表。从祂高贵的品格上,从祂的慈悲与怜悯上,从祂的爱与良善上,祂站在我们之前乃是完全至圣之具体的显现,所不能见之上帝的形像。[3]
黎明的灵修-第33章
When Philip came to Jesus with the request, “Show us the Father, and it sufficeth us,” the Saviour answered him, “Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? He that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?” Christ declares Himself to be sent into the world as a representative of the Father. In His nobility of character, in His mercy and tender pity, in His love and goodness, He stands before us as the embodiment of divine perfection, the image of the invisible God.{WGD 35.3}[3]
黎明的灵修-第33章
使徒说:“上帝在基督里,叫世人与自己和好”(林后5:19)。我们只有在思想伟大的救赎计划时,才能对于上帝的品性有正确的赏识。创造之工是祂爱的表现;但惟有那拯救犯罪沉沦人类的上帝的恩赐,才能表明上帝慈悲怜爱的无穷深度。……这是何等的爱,何等无比的爱,使我们虽是罪人及外人,仍能归向上帝,并被接进祂的家庭中!我们能用亲密的名号称呼祂为“我们的父”,这是一种表号,表明我们对祂的爱情,及保证祂对我们的怜恤与亲切的关系。上帝圣子看到这些恩典的后裔,“称他们为弟兄,也不以为耻”(来2:11)。(5T 739)[4]
黎明的灵修-第33章
Says the apostle, “God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself.” Only as we contemplate the great plan of redemption can we have a just appreciation of the character of God. The work of creation was a manifestation of His love: but the gift of God to save the guilty and ruined race, alone reveals the infinite depths of divine tenderness and compassion.... What love, what matchless love, that, sinners and aliens as we are, we may be brought back to God, and adopted into His family! We may address Him by the endearing name, “Our Father,” which is a sign of our affection for Him, and a pledge of His tender regard and relationship to us. And the Son of God, beholding the heirs of grace, “is not ashamed to call them brethren.”—Testimonies for the Church 5:738-740.{WGD 35.4}[4]
