奇妙的神恩-第18章
“可以得着不能朽坏,不能玷污,不能衰残,为你们存留在天上的基业”(彼前1:4)。{AG 25.1}[1]
奇妙的神恩-第18章
To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you.1 Peter 1:4.{AG 25.1}[1]
奇妙的神恩-第18章
基督正在教训人。像平时一样,除了门徒之外,还有其他的人聚集在祂周围。……但是有许多人盼望天国的恩典只是为了自私的目的。他们看出基督所阐明之真理的奇妙能力。……祂难道不肯用祂的能力为他们谋求属世的利益吗?{AG 25.2}[2]
奇妙的神恩-第18章
Christ was teaching, and, as usual, others besides His disciples had gathered about Him.... But there were many who desired the grace of heaven only to serve their selfish purposes. They recognized the marvelous power of Christ in setting forth the truth in a clear light.... Would He not lend His power for their worldly benefit?{AG 25.2}[2]
奇妙的神恩-第18章
“众人中有一个人对耶稣说:夫子,请祢吩咐我的兄长和我分开家业”(路12:13)。……基督正在进行严肃的讲道。这个人却表现出自私的性情。他只赏识主在属世的事上帮助他的能力。属灵的真理没有打动他的心。……耶稣正在向他敞开上帝之爱的宝藏。圣灵正在恳劝他接受“不能朽坏、不能玷污、不能衰残”的基业(彼前1:4)。……但他的眼睛只盯着地上看。……{AG 25.3}[3]
奇妙的神恩-第18章
“And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me” (Luke 12:13).... In the midst of the solemn instruction that Christ had given, this man had revealed his selfish disposition. He could appreciate that ability of the Lord which might work for the advancement of his own temporal affairs; but spiritual truths had taken no hold on his mind and heart.... [Jesus] was opening to him the treasures of divine love. The Holy Spirit was pleading with him to become an heir of the inheritance that is “incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away.” ... [But] his eyes were fixed on the earth....{AG 25.3}[3]
奇妙的神恩-第18章
这时救主在地上的工作快要结束了。为完成祂降世的使命,建立起祂恩典的国度,祂只剩下几个月的光阴了。可是此时人的贪心还要祂放下工作,去调解一块地产的纠纷。耶稣不肯转离祂的使命。祂回答说:“你这个人,谁立我做你们断事的官,给你们分家业呢?”……基督实际上是说:调解这一类纷争不是我的任务。祂来有另一个目的,就是传福音,使人注意永恒的现实。……{AG 25.4}[4]
奇妙的神恩-第18章
The Saviour’s mission on earth was fast drawing to a close. Only a few months remained for Him to complete what He had come to do, in establishing the kingdom of His grace. Yet human greed would have turned Him from His work to take up the dispute over a piece of land. But Jesus was not to be diverted from His mission. His answer was, “Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you?” ... Christ virtually said, It is not My work to settle controversies of this kind. He came for another purpose, to preach the gospel, and thus to arouse men to a sense of eternal realities....{AG 25.4}[4]
奇妙的神恩-第18章
当祂差遣十二个门徒出去的时候,祂指示:“随走随传,说:天国近了”(太10:7-8)。……他们不是去解决民间属世的事务。他们的责任是劝人与上帝和好。他们造福人类的能力就在于此。人类的罪恶和悲伤的唯一拯救之方就是基督。惟有祂恩典的福音才能够医治那危害社会的种种弊端……惟有祂能赐给我们一颗新的爱心,来代替那罪恶的私心。{COL 252-254}{AG 25.5}[5]
奇妙的神恩-第18章
When He sent forth the twelve, He said, “As ye go, preach, saying, the kingdom of heaven is at hand ...” (Matthew 10:7, 8). They were not to settle the temporal affairs of the people. Their work was to persuade men to be reconciled to God. In this work lay their power to bless humanity. The only remedy for the sins and sorrows of humanity is Christ. The gospel of His grace alone can cure the evils that curse society.... He alone, for the selfish heart of sin, gives the new heart of love.30{AG 25.5}[5]
