We Need More Men Like Moses, July 21
上帝的儿女-第204章
百姓见摩西迟延不下山,就大家聚集到亚伦那里,对他说:「起来,为我们做神像,可以在我们前面引路,因为领我们出埃及地的那个摩西,我们不知道他遭了什么事」(出32:1)。{SD209.1}[1]
上帝的儿女-第204章
Men of Courage Needed
And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.Exodus 32:1.{SD 209.1}[1]
上帝的儿女-第204章
摩西不在会众中间的时候,审判的权柄由亚伦代理,所以这时有一大群人聚集在他的帐棚旁边,要求他说:「起来,为我们做神像,可以在我们前面引路」。……这样的一个危机,需要一个坚强,果断,胆大无畏的人来应付。他必须看上帝的尊荣过于众人的爱戴,过于个人的安全,或自己的性命。……亚伦软弱无力地劝告民众,然而他在这紧要关头所显示的踌躇不决和怯懦胆小,只有使他们更为坚决。这场骚动继续扩大。……亚伦担心自己的安全;他没有毅然为上帝的尊荣站稳脚步,反而屈从了众人的要求。他第一步行动是吩咐众百姓摘下他们的金耳环拿来给他,希望他们的虚荣心会使他们不肯作这样的牺牲。但他们甘心交出他们的装饰品,他就用这些装饰品仿照埃及的神像铸了一只牛犊。{SD209.2}[2]
上帝的儿女-第204章
In the absence of Moses, the judicial authority had been delegated to Aaron, and a vast crowd gathered about his tent, with the demand, “Make us gods, which shall go before us....” Such a crisis demanded a man of firmness, decision, and unflinching courage; one who held the honor of God above popular favor, personal safety, or life itself.... Aaron feebly remonstrated with the people, but his wavering and timidity at the critical moment only rendered them the more determined. The tumult increased.... Aaron feared for his own safety; and instead of nobly standing up for the honor of God, he yielded to the demands of the multitude. His first act was to direct that the golden earrings be collected from all the people and brought to him, hoping that pride would lead them to refuse such a sacrifice. But they willingly yielded up their ornaments; and from these he made a molten calf, in imitation of the gods of Egypt.44{SD 209.2}[2]
上帝的儿女-第204章
在我们应该有清晰的眼光辨别是非,即使我们的动机可能被误解,而处于不利地位之际,我们却重犯了亚伦的罪,就是懦弱。我们不应容忍对于一个弟兄或任何一个与我们有关系之人的亏负。这种不为真理坚立的行为就是亚伦的罪。如果亚伦仗理明言,金牛犊就不会造出来了。{SD209.3}[3]
上帝的儿女-第204章
We repeat the sin of Aaron, pacifying, when the eyesight should be clear to discern evil and state it plainly, even if it places us in an unpleasant position, because our motives may be misapprehended. We must not suffer wrong upon a brother or any soul with whom we are connected. This neglect to stand up firmly for truth was the sin of Aaron. Had he spoken the truth plainly, that golden calf would never have been made.45{SD 209.3}[3]
上帝的儿女-第204章
现在仍有许多软弱的亚伦。……屈从那些没有献身之人的欲望,这样就鼓励他们犯罪了。{SD209.4}[4]
上帝的儿女-第204章
There are still pliant Aarons, who ... will yield to the desires of the unconsecrated, and thus encourage them in sin.46{SD 209.4}[4]
上帝的儿女-第204章
那些负有上帝使命的人,不可作软弱而无主见的机会主义者,……或规避不愉快的本分,乃要以坚贞的忠实来执行上帝的工作。{SD209.5}[5]
上帝的儿女-第204章
Those who are honored with a divine commission, are not to be weak, ... or to shun disagreeable duties, but to perform God’s work with unswerving fidelity.47{SD 209.5}[5]
