使我认识祂-第118章
“所以你们要自卑,服在上帝大能的手下,到了时候,祂必叫你们升高”(彼前5:6)。{TMK123.1}[1]
使我认识祂-第118章
Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.1 Peter 5:6.{TMK 123.1}[1]
使我认识祂-第118章
全天庭都与凡来就基督寻求永生,顺服祂如同已将一切奉献与上帝的人成立合伙的关系。上帝要求祂的仆人都要置身于以马内利大君血染的旌旗之下,努力依赖祂的权能以保持真理的原则纯洁不腐。他们绝对不可偏离每一个真正的基督徒所必须循行的舍己谦卑的路途。当他们如此与上帝合作之时,基督便在他们的心里“成了有荣耀的盼望”(西1:27)。他们既披上了祂的柔和谦卑,就以从事祂的服务为自己至上之乐。属世的野心便为服事主的愿望所取代了。{TMK123.2}[2]
使我认识祂-第118章
All heaven enters into copartnership with those who come to Christ for eternal life, submitting themselves to Him as those who have made a surrender of all to God. God requires His servants to stand under the blood-stained banner of Prince Emmanuel, striving in His power to keep the principles of truth pure and uncorrupted. They must never step aside from the path of self-denial and humility which every true Christian must travel. As they thus cooperate with God, Christ is formed within, “the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:27). Clad in His meekness and lowliness they find their highest joy in doing His service. Earthly ambition gives way to a desire to serve the Master.{TMK 123.2}[2]

“耶和华虽高,仍看顾低微的人;祂却从远处看出骄傲的人。”“上帝所要的祭,就是忧伤的灵;上帝啊,忧伤痛悔的心,祢必不轻看”(诗138:6;51:17)。上帝亲切地顾念凡表显基督柔和谦卑之精神的人。没有一样是祂不注意的。祂注意他们的舍己,他们在世人面前为高举基督所作的努力。这班谦卑的工作者或许为世人所藐视,然而在上帝看来他们却是极其贵重的。那获得护照准许进入天庭的人,并不单是智慧、伟大、仁慈的人——并不单是那忙忙碌碌、满怀热诚而不停工作的人。不;那心清而口里查不出诡诈的人;那虚心而为居住心中之基督的灵所激励的人;那使人和睦而其最高志向乃为遵行上帝旨意的人——这些人都必丰丰富富地得以进去。他们是上帝的珍宝,必与约翰所描写的人同列:“我听见好像群众的声音,……说:哈利路亚;因为主我们的上帝、全能者作王了”(启19:6)。他们已经将自己的衣服在羔羊的血里洗净洁白了。“所以他们在上帝的宝座前,昼夜在祂的殿中侍奉祂;坐宝座的要用帐幕覆庇他们”(启7:15)。(《评论与通讯》1897年5月11日){TMK123.2}[3]
使我认识祂-第118章
“Though the Lord be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.” “The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise” (Psalm 138:6;51:17). Those who reveal the meek and lowly spirit of Christ are tenderly regarded by God. Nothing is unnoticed by Him. He marks their self-denial, their effort to uplift Christ before the world. Though these humble workers may be looked upon with scorn by the world, they are of great value in the sight of God. Not only the wise, the great, the beneficent, will gain a passport into the heavenly courts—not only the busy worker, full of zeal and restless activity. No; the pure in heart, in whose lips there is found no guile; the poor in spirit, who are actuated by the Spirit of an abiding Christ; the peacemaker, whose highest ambition is to do God’s will—these will gain an abundant entrance. They are God’s jewels, and will be among that number of whom John writes, “I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, ... saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth” (Revelation 19:6). They have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. “Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them” (Revelation 7:15).40{TMK 123.3}[3]
