Conversion Creates New Interests and New Loves, December 8
效法主耶稣-第343章
“就要脱去你们从前行为上的旧人。这旧人是因私欲的迷惑，渐渐变坏的”（弗4:22）。{BLJ360.1}[1]
效法主耶稣-第343章
Put away your former way of life, your old self, corrupt and deluded by its lusts.Ephesians 4:22, NRSV.{BLJ 360.1}[1]
效法主耶稣-第343章
上帝现在呼召你悔改，在圣工上热心。你永恒的幸福将取决于你现在所走的道路。你岂能拒绝现在所提供的恩慈的邀请呢？你岂能选择自己的道路呢？你岂要怀藏骄傲和虚荣，以至最终丧失你的灵魂吗？上帝的圣言清楚地告诉我们，得救的人会很少，大多数蒙召的人都将证明自己不配进入永生。他们会与天国无份，而要和撒但一起，经历第二次的死。{BLJ360.2}[2]
效法主耶稣-第343章
God now calls upon you to repent, to be zealous in the work. Your eternal happiness will be determined by the course you now pursue. Can you reject the invitations of mercy now offered? Can you choose your own way? Will you cherish pride and vanity, and lose your soul at last? The Word of God plainly tells us that few will be saved, and that the greater number even of those who are called will prove themselves unworthy of everlasting life. They will have no part in heaven, but will have their portion with Satan, and experience the second death.{BLJ 360.2}[2]

男女世人如果愿意，他们都能逃脱这种厄运。尽管撒但是罪恶的最大始作俑者，但这却不能成为任何人犯罪的借口。因为撒但并不能强迫人犯罪。他引诱人犯罪，且使罪看上去既诱人又令人愉快；但他必须让人的意志自行决定是否愿意犯罪。他不强迫人喝醉，也不强行阻止人去参加宗教聚会；但他却可以将试探摆在世人面前，引诱他们去犯罪，人有道德上的自由决定接受还是拒绝。{BLJ360.3}[3]
效法主耶稣-第343章
Men and women may escape this doom if they will. It is true that Satan is the great originator of sin; yet this does not excuse anyone for sinning; for he cannot force any to do evil. He tempts them to it, and makes sin look enticing and pleasant; but he has to leave it to their own wills whether they will do it or not. He does not force people to become intoxicated, neither does he force them to remain away from religious meetings; but he presents temptations in a manner to allure to evil, and human beings are free moral agents to accept or refuse.{BLJ 360.3}[3]
效法主耶稣-第343章
悔改这种工作，多数的人还不赏识。要把属世的、喜爱罪恶的心意转变过来，使之了解基督无可言喻的爱，祂恩典的美妙，和上帝的优美，以致使人被神圣之爱所充满，被天庭的奥秘所吸引，这种工作确实不是小事。何时人明白了这些事，以往的生活就必显出是可憎可恨的了。他恨恶罪恶，在上帝面前破碎己心，接受基督为他心灵的生命与喜乐。他抛弃从前的快乐。他有了新的心思，新的感情，新的兴趣，新的意志；他的忧愁、愿望、和爱全都是新的了。肉体的情欲、眼目的情欲、并今生的骄傲，在从前都看为比基督更重要，现在却转离了，而以基督作为自己生命的至宝与喜乐的冠冕。{BLJ360.4}[4]
效法主耶稣-第343章
Conversion is a work that most do not appreciate. It is not a small matter to transform an earthly, sin-loving mind and bring it to understand the unspeakable love of Christ, the charms of His grace, and the excellency of God, so that souls shall be imbued with divine love and captivated with the heavenly mysteries. When they understand these things, their former life appears disgusting and hateful. They hate sin, and, breaking their heart before God, they embrace Christ as the life and joy of the soul. They renounce their former pleasures. They have a new mind, new affections, new interest, new will; their sorrows, and desires, and love are all new. The lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye, and the pride of life, which have heretofore been preferred before Christ, are now turned from, and Christ is the charm of the life, the crown of rejoicing.{BLJ 360.4}[4]
效法主耶稣-第343章
从前看不到什么优美的天国，如今看到了它的富足和荣耀；他默想它是自己将来的家乡，在那里他将要看见、爱戴和赞美曾用自己的宝血救赎了他的那一位。（2T:293,294）{BLJ360.5}[5]
效法主耶稣-第343章
Heaven, which once possessed no charms, is now viewed in its riches and glory; and they contemplate it as their future home, where they shall see, love, and praise the One who hath redeemed them by His precious blood.—Testimonies for the Church 2:293, 294.{BLJ 360.5}[5]
