你必得能力-第82章
“就是他们在患难中受大试炼的时候,仍有满足的快乐;在极穷之间,还格外显出他们乐捐的厚恩”(林后8:2)。[1]
你必得能力-第82章
How that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality.2 Corinthians 8:2.{YRP 89.1}[1]
你必得能力-第82章
只有当基督徒的动机得到充分的认可,良心意识到自己的本分,上帝的光深深地射入品格和心灵之中时,自私才会得到克服,基督的精神才会彰显出来。圣灵运行在人的内心和品格上,会驱除一切贪婪和欺诈的行为。{YRP 89.1}[2]
你必得能力-第82章
It is only when Christian motives are fully acknowledged, and the conscience is awake to duty, when divine light makes impressions upon the heart and character, that selfishness is overcome, and the mind of Christ is exemplified. The Holy Spirit, working upon human hearts and characters, will expel all tendency to covetousness, to deceptive dealing.{YRP 89.2}[2]
你必得能力-第82章
当主的使者传一道信息给教会时,上帝就对百姓讲话,唤醒他们的良心,叫他们看到自己一直没有诚实地向主交纳十分之一,而且在不方便奉献的时候,他们也不将自己的供物献给祂。他们将主自己的钱挪为私用,盖房子、购买车马或土地。他们这么做指望赚大钱,而且每年都有一样的藉口。“人岂可夺取上帝之物呢”(玛3:8)?他却这么做了许多次,因为他不属灵,看不出属灵的事。{YRP 89.2}[3]
你必得能力-第82章
When the Lord’s messenger bears a message to the church, God is speaking to the people, awakening the conscience to see that they have not been rendering an honest tithe to the Lord, and that when it was not convenient to give, they have failed to present their offerings to Him. They have used the Lord’s own money for themselves, in building houses, in purchasing horses, carriages, or lands. They do this in the hope of large returns, and every year they have the same excuse. “Will a man rob God?” (Malachi 3:8). Oh, yes, he has done this many times, because he has not been spiritual, to discern the spiritual things.{YRP 89.3}[3]
你必得能力-第82章
有时上帝明显感动世俗自私的人。他们的思想蒙圣灵启迪,内心感受到祂软化人折服人的影响力。他们既感悟到上帝丰盛的怜悯与恩慈,便觉得有责任推进祂的圣工,建立祂的国度。他们记住主的要求:“只要积攒财宝在天上,天上没有虫子咬,不能锈坏,也没有贼挖窟窿来偷”(太6:20)。他们希望在上帝的国里有份,于是就许下诺言,奉献他们的金钱给圣工的不同事业。这个保证不是对人发的,而是在感动这些自私贪财之人的天使面前对上帝发的。(RH.1893.5.23){YRP 89.3}[4]
你必得能力-第82章
On some occasions the Lord has moved decidedly upon worldly, selfish men. Their minds were illuminated by the Holy Spirit, their hearts felt its softening, subduing influence. Under a sense of the abundant mercy and grace of God, they felt it their duty to promote His cause, to build up His kingdom. They remembered the requirement, “Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal” (Matthew 6:19, 20). They felt a desire to have a share in the kingdom of God, and they pledged to give of their means to some of the various enterprises of the Lord’s cause. That pledge was not made to man, but to God in the presence of His angels, who were moving upon the hearts of these selfish, money-loving men.—The Review and Herald, May 23, 1893.{YRP 89.4}[4]
