上帝的儿女-第229章
We Are Not to Glory in Riches, August 15
上帝的儿女-第229章
「财主不要因他的财物夸口」(耶9:23)。{SD234.1}[1]
上帝的儿女-第229章
Let Us Glory in the Cross of Christ
Let not the rich man glory in his riches.Jeremiah 9:23.{SD 234.1}[1]
上帝的儿女-第229章
有钱的人不要夸耀自己的财富。我们若思念地上的事,就不会高举基督。撒但希望我们专注于今生的事物,忘记更高尚的人生。我们屈从他的诡计就得不偿失。基督是属世和属灵的一切福惠的源泉。祂赐给我们财富,不是让我们据为己有。「不要为自己积攒财宝在地上,地上有虫子咬,能锈坏,也有贼挖窟窿来偷。只要积攒财宝在天上」。……保罗将万事当作有损的,为要得着基督。但当救主要我们献上财富和服务时,许多人就发觉要顺服上帝,就不能携带属世的财富,于是他们决定留住自己的财富。……{SD234.2}[2]
上帝的儿女-第229章
The rich man is not to glory in his riches. If we fix our affections on worldly things, we fail to exalt Christ. Satan would keep our minds absorbed with the things of this life, that we may lose sight of the higher life; but we cannot afford to yield to his devices. Christ is the source of all temporal, as well as all spiritual blessings. If he has given us riches, it is not that we may claim them as our own. “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....” Paul counted all things but loss that he might win Christ. But when the Saviour calls for our possessions and our service, there are many who see they cannot obey God and carry their earthly treasures with them, and they decide to stay by their treasures....{SD 234.2}[2]
上帝的儿女-第229章
那些指望侍立在基督的宝座周围,披上祂的公义的人,怎能不信任上帝,担心祂会撇下他们受穷呢?他们的信心在那里?我们的天父既养活乌鸦,祂岂不更会养活我们吗?我们如果对基督有正确的认识,就不会让任何东西阻隔在祂与我们之间。……那些既想留在世界,又想获得天国的人,将会被关在天国门外。我们若想与受苦的主同坐祂的宝座上,就必须接受信仰中苦难的一面。{SD234.3}[3]
上帝的儿女-第229章
How can those who expect to stand around Christ’s throne, and to be clothed with His righteousness, distrust God, and fear that He will leave them to come to want? Where is their faith? Our heavenly Father feeds the ravens, and will He not much more feed us? ... If we had a right view of Christ, we would permit nothing to interpose between ourselves and Him.... Those who study to see how near they can live to the world and yet gain heaven, will come just near enough to be shut out from heaven. We must accept the suffering part of religion if we would sit down with the Suffering One upon His throne.29{SD 234.3}[3]
上帝的儿女-第229章
追求财富本在情理之中,但我们只能视财富为一种委托,不可浪费,而要用在上帝的圣工上。我们应该坚决服从我们元帅的命令,为自己积攒天国的财宝。这样,当属世的财富尽都毁灭之时,我们在天上将拥有一份享用不尽的财富。{SD234.4}[4]
上帝的儿女-第229章
While it is lawful for us to acquire means, the money that we possess should be regarded as ours only in trust, not to be squandered, but spent in the Lord’s service. It should be our determined purpose to obey the orders of our Captain, and thus lay up for ourselves heavenly riches. Then, when everything in this world perishes, we shall have a treasure in the heavens, which faileth not.30{SD 234.4}[4]
