“按我们所得的恩赐,各有不同。或说预言,就当照着信心的程度说预言”(罗12:6)。{HB212}[1]

Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them.—Romans 12:6.{HB 212.1}[1]
我们回天家-第190章
我们主的旨意是要祂的教会向世人反映我们从祂里面所得到的丰盛和充足。我们不断地领受上帝的鸿恩,同时藉着分赠这种恩赐而向世人彰显基督的慈爱与福惠。当天庭全体都动员起来,派遣使者到天涯海角去推进这救赎大工之时,永生上帝的教会也要与基督同工。我们是祂奥秘之身的肢体。祂是头,管理全身的肢体。耶稣本着祂无穷的慈悲亲自在人心中作工,成就属灵的变化,非常神奇,令众天使惊讶欣喜地观看。这代表主品格的同样无私之爱,也当在祂真实门徒的生活及品格上表现出来。基督期望人在世上就变得与祂的神性有份,这样不但返照祂的荣耀而赞美上帝,同时也将天庭的光辉照亮这黑暗的世界。这就应验了基督的话说:“你们是世上的光”(太5:14)。{HB212.1}[2]
我们回天家-第190章
Our Lord designed that His church should reflect to the world the fulness and sufficiency that we find in Him. We are constantly receiving of God’s bounty, and by imparting of the same we are to represent to the world the love and beneficence of Christ. While all heaven is astir, dispatching messengers to all parts of the earth to carry forward the work of redemption, the church of the living God are also to be colaborers with Jesus Christ. We are members of His mystical body. He is the head, controlling all the members of the body. Jesus Himself, in His infinite mercy, is working on human hearts, effecting spiritual transformations so amazing that angels look on with astonishment and joy. The same unselfish love that characterizes the Master is seen in the character and life of His true followers. Christ expects that we will become partakers of His divine nature while in this world, thus not only reflecting His glory, to the praise of God, but illuminating the darkness of earth with the radiance of heaven. Thus will be fulfilled the words of Christ, “Ye are the light of the world.”{HB 212.2}[2]

“我们是与上帝同工的,”“作上帝百般恩赐的好管家”(林前3:9;彼前4:40)。上帝恩典的知识,圣经的真理,以及今生的各样恩赐,──光阴和金钱、才干和感化力,──都是上帝所委托要用来荣神救人的。{HB212.2}[3]
我们回天家-第190章
“We are laborers together with God”—“stewards of the manifold grace of God.” The knowledge of God’s grace, the truths of His Word, and temporal gifts as well—time and means, talent and influence—are all a trust from God to be employed to His glory and for the salvation of others.{HB 212.3}[3]
我们回天家-第190章
什么地方有仁爱和同情的愿望,什么地方有人立志造福和帮助别人,那里就有上帝的圣灵在作工。在异邦的最深地带,有些人根本不知道上帝成文的律法,也从来没有听见过基督的名字,但是他们却善待基督的仆人,并曾冒着生命的危险保护他们。他们的行为表明上帝能力在他们心中运行。圣灵已经将基督的恩典栽培在未开化的人心中,激起了与他的本性和教养相违的同情心。那“照亮一切生在世上的人”(约1:9)的真光正照耀着他的心。他若加以注意,这光就会引导他们走进上帝的国。(《评论与通讯》1908年12月24日){HB212.3}[4]
我们回天家-第190章
Wherever there is an impulse of love and sympathy, wherever the heart reaches out to uplift and bless others, there is revealed the working of God’s Holy Spirit. In the depths of heathenism, those who have no knowledge of the written law of God, who have never even heard the name of Christ, have been kind to His servants, protecting them at the risk of their own lives. Their acts show the working of a divine power. The Holy Spirit has implanted the grace of Christ in the heart of the savages, quickening their sympathies contrary to their nature, contrary to their education. The “Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world,” is shining in their souls; and this light, if heeded, will guide their feet to the kingdom of God.—Review and Herald, December 24, 1908.{HB 212.4}[4]
