你必得能力-第283章
“只是我先前以为与我有益的,我现在因基督都当作有损的”(腓3:7)。[1]
你必得能力-第283章
But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.Philippians 3:7.{YRP 290.1}[1]
你必得能力-第283章
基督自我牺牲的爱是通过教会向世人彰显的;但是现在教会的作为误表了基督的品格,使世人对祂产生误解。自私的爱将耶稣的爱排斥在心门之外,所以教会没有对那位先爱了我们的主,表现出更大的热诚和更强烈的爱。许多人心中把自我摆在第一位。他们的思想、光阴和金钱都用在自我满足上,任由基督所代死的人走向灭亡。{YRP 290.1}[2]
你必得能力-第283章
It is through the church that the self-sacrificing love of Jesus is to be made manifest to the world; but by the present example of the church the character of Christ is misrepresented, and a false conception of Him is given to the world. Self-love excludes the love of Jesus from the soul, and this is why there is not in the church greater zeal and more fervent love for Him who first loved us. Self is supreme in so many hearts. Their thoughts, their time, their money, are given to self-gratification, while souls for whom Christ died are perishing.{YRP 290.2}[2]
你必得能力-第283章
因此主不能将祂丰盛的福分赐给祂的教会。如果以显著的方式在世人面前尊荣他们,无异于核准他们的行为,同意他们误表祂的品格。当教会从这个世界出来,摆脱它的原则、习惯和行为时,主耶稣就会与祂的子民同工,把祂的灵沛降在他们身上,让世人看到天父是爱他们的。上帝的子民是否继续沉迷于自私之中呢?祂的福分高悬于他们之上,但不能充分地赐下,因为他们受世俗的精神和行为所污染。他们心怀属灵的骄傲,如果主照祂心中渴望的去做,就无异于赞同他们的自高自大。{YRP 290.2}[3]
你必得能力-第283章
This is why the Lord cannot impart to His church the fullness of His blessing. To honor them in a distinguished manner before the world would be to put His seal upon their works, confirming their false representation of His character. When the church shall come out from the world, and be separate from its maxims, habits, and practices, the Lord Jesus will work with His people; He will pour a large measure of His Spirit upon them, and the world will know that the Father loves them. Will the people of God continue to be so stupefied with selfishness? His blessing hangs over them, but it cannot be bestowed in its fullness because they are so corrupted with the spirit and practices of the world. There is spiritual pride among them; and should the Lord work as His heart longs to do, it would but confirm them in their self-esteem and self-exaltation.{YRP 290.3}[3]
你必得能力-第283章
难道我们的信徒还要继续误表基督吗?上帝的教会难道会因不冷不热而得不着上帝的恩典、神圣的光照吗?如果不竭力寻求上帝,放弃世俗,在上帝面前自卑,情况就会是这样。上帝改变人心的大能必须运行在我们的教会中。(HM.1890.11.1){YRP 290.3}[4]
你必得能力-第283章
Shall Christ continue to be misrepresented by our people? Shall the grace of God, the divine enlightenment, be shut away from His church, because of their lukewarmness? It will be, unless there is most thorough seeking of God, renunciation of the world, and humbling of the soul before God. The converting power of God must pass through our churches.—The Home Missionary, November 1, 1890.{YRP 290.4}[4]
