使我认识祂-第270章
“你们要记念我从前对你们所说的话:‘仆人不能大于主人。’他们若逼迫了我,也要逼迫你们”(约15:20)。{TMK275.1}[1]
使我认识祂-第270章
Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you.John 15:20.{TMK 275.1}[1]
使我认识祂-第270章
人愿意作什么来获得与上帝合作的特权呢?他愿意舍弃自己的一切而不愿舍弃基督吗?……他愿意为真理的缘故忍受逼迫吗?耻辱和逼迫使许多人与天国隔离了,但决不能使一个人与基督的爱隔绝。逼迫决不能使真正爱耶稣基督的人与祂隔开。耶稣的爱在人心中是吸引一切的,因为上帝爱我们的大爱,显明在将基督赐给我们上,是无可比拟的。“上帝爱世人,甚至将祂的独生子赐给他们。”……{TMK275.2}[2]
使我认识祂-第270章
What will the human agent do to have the privilege of cooperating with God? Will he forsake all that he has rather than forsake Christ? ... Will he suffer persecution for the truth’s sake? Reproach and persecution have separated many souls from heaven, but never a soul from the love of Christ. Never yet did persecution drive the soul who was indeed a lover of Jesus Christ away from Him. The love of Jesus in the soul is all-absorbing, for that great love wherewith God hath loved us, revealed in giving Christ to us, is beyond a parallel. “God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son.” ...{TMK 275.2}[2]

如果我们能为祂可爱之名忍受逼迫,祂的爱就成为我们心中掌管一切的权能,因为我们得到保证,知道没有什么能使我们与基督的爱隔绝。经受风暴的人在为真理的缘故忍受耻辱的时候,是最蒙他救主疼爱的。当信徒为真理的缘故站在不义的法庭上时,基督就站在他身边。落到信徒身上的一切耻辱,都因圣徒而落在基督身上。基督说:“我也要爱他,并且要向他显现”(约14:21)。基督在祂的信徒身上再度被定罪。当信徒为真理的缘故被关在监狱里的时候,基督要向他显现,并以祂的爱使他心中快乐。当他为基督的缘故受死时,基督对他说:他们可以杀身体,却不能伤害灵魂。“你们可以放心,我已经胜了世界”(约16:33)。(《信函》1896年第116号){TMK275.3}[3]
使我认识祂-第270章
If we can bear persecution for His dear name’s sake, His love becomes a ruling power in our hearts, for we have the assurance that nothing can separate us from the love of Christ. Never is the tempest-tried soul more dearly loved by his Saviour than when he is suffering reproach for the truth’s sake. When for the truth’s sake the believer stands at the bar of unrighteous tribunals, Christ stands by his side. All the reproaches that fall upon the human believer fall upon Christ in the person of His saints. “I will love him,” said Christ, “and will manifest myself to him” (John 14:21). Christ is condemned over again in the person of His believing disciples. When for the truth’s sake the believer is incarcerated in prison walls, Christ manifests Himself to him and ravishes his heart with His love. When he suffers death for the sake of Christ, Christ says to him, They may kill the body, but they cannot hurt the soul. “Be of good cheer; I have overcome the world” (John 16:33).32{TMK 275.3}[3]

使徒对我们说:“……你们若为基督的名受辱骂,便是有福的;因为上帝荣耀的灵常住在你们身上”(彼前4:14)。要扪心自问:“我的救赎主是否当着天上的宇宙,当着撒但的爪牙,当着世人,这样在我身上显大呢?”(《信函》1895年第82号){TMK275.4}[4]
使我认识祂-第270章
The apostle says to us, “... If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.” Ask yourself, “Is my Redeemer thus magnified in me before the universe of heaven, before the satanic agencies, and before the world?”?33{TMK 275.4}[4]
