我们回天家-第78章
“上帝的旨意就是要你们成为圣洁”(帖前4:3)。{HB94.1}[1]
我们回天家-第78章
For this is the will of God, your sanctification.—1 Thessalonians 4:3.{HB 94.1}[1]
我们回天家-第78章
上帝在祂的范围内是圣洁的,照样,堕落的人也必因信基督而在他们的范围内追求圣洁。……{HB94.2}[2]
我们回天家-第78章
As God is holy in His sphere, so fallen human beings, through faith in Christ, are to be holy in their sphere. . . .{HB 94.2}[2]
我们回天家-第78章
上帝在祂子民身上所施用的一切手段,都以教会成圣为目的。祂从起初就拣选了他们,叫他们成为圣洁。祂赐下祂的儿子为他们舍命,叫他们因顺从真理,脱离自己一切鄙陋的行为而成为圣洁。上帝所要他们作的乃是一种个人的工作,一种个人的献身。那些承认自己相信上帝的人惟有与祂的形象相似,并受的祂圣灵管束,才能归荣耀与祂。然后,当他们为救主作见证时,他们才能宣扬上帝的恩典为他们所成就的事。{HB94.3}[3]
我们回天家-第78章
The sanctification of the church is God’s object in all His dealings with His people. He has chosen them from eternity, that they might be holy. He gave His Son to die for them, that they might be sanctified through obedience to the truth, divested of all the littleness of self. From them He requires a personal work, a personal surrender. God can be honored by those who profess to believe in Him, only as they are conformed to His image and controlled by His Spirit. Then, as witnesses for the Saviour, they may make known what divine grace has done for them.{HB 94.3}[3]

真正的成圣在于实践爱的原则。“上帝就是爱,住在爱里面的,就是住在上帝里面,上帝也住在他里面”(约壹4:16)。那有基督住在心中的人,他的生活必要显示实际的敬虔。他的品格必要成为纯洁、高尚,尊贵、光荣。纯正的道理必与公义的作为协调;天上的训词必与圣洁的行为结合。{HB94.4}[4]
我们回天家-第78章
True sanctification comes through the working out of the principle of love. “God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.” (1 John 4:16.) The lives of those in whose hearts Christ abides, will reveal practical godliness. The character will be purified, elevated, ennobled, and glorified. Pure doctrine will blend with works of righteousness; heavenly precepts will mingle with holy practices.{HB 94.4}[4]
我们回天家-第78章
凡想要获得成圣之福的人必须先认识自我牺牲的意义。……我们对于同胞的爱所发出的馨香之气,足以显明我们爱上帝的心。那使我们心灵得享安息的,乃是我们在服务上的忍耐。那增进以色列幸福的,乃是谦卑,殷勤,忠诚的辛劳。凡甘愿跟从基督的人,上帝必支持他们,坚固他们。T{HB94.5}[5]
我们回天家-第78章
Those who would gain the blessing of sanctification must first learn the meaning of self-sacrifice. . . . It is the fragrance of our love for others that reveals our love for God. It is patience in service that brings rest to the soul. It is through humble, diligent, faithful toil that the welfare of Israel is promoted. God upholds and strengthens the one who is willing to follow in Christ’s way.{HB 94.5}[5]
我们回天家-第78章
成圣并不是一时、一刻、一天的工作,而是一生的工作。这也不是出于一时的兴奋,而是经常向罪死、经常为基督而活的结果。微薄而间断的努力决不能纠正过错,改变品格。我们惟有藉着恒切的努力,痛楚的锻炼和剧烈的斗争才能得胜。我们今天不知道明日的斗争将是何等艰巨。只要有撒但存在,我们就必须攻克己身,制胜那缠累我们的罪;只要我们一息尚存,就没有一个休止的地方。没有什么时候我们可以说:我已经完全达到了。原来成圣乃是终身顺从上帝的结果。(《使徒言行录》559-561页){HB94.6}[6]
我们回天家-第78章
Sanctification is not the work of a moment, an hour, a day, but of a lifetime. It is not gained by a happy flight of feeling, but is the result of constantly dying to sin, and constantly living for Christ. Wrongs cannot be righted nor reformations wrought in the character by feeble, intermittent efforts. It is only by long, persevering effort, sore discipline, and stern conflict, that we shall overcome. We know not one day how strong will be our conflict the next. So long as Satan reigns, we shall have self to subdue, besetting sins to overcome; so long as life shall last, there will be no stopping place, no point which we can reach and say, I have fully attained. Sanctification is the result of lifelong obedience.—The Acts of the Apostles, 559-561.{HB 94.6}[6]
