For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.Galatians 5:6.{HP 110.1}[1]
一同在天上-第105章
基督藉着舍弃祂的生命,使我们不至于在自己的过犯中灭亡,并把祂的救恩赐给我们,彰显了祂对于我们的大爱。我们若将这神圣之爱珍藏于心,就会巩固并加强我们与同道之间的联合。“住在爱里面的,就是住在上帝里面,上帝也住在他里”(约壹4:16)。加强我们对于弟兄姊妹的爱,也加强了我们对于基督的爱。这种爱上帝和爱基督所代死之人的原则,需要圣灵的激发,并因弟兄的友善亲爱而得以坚定。它也需要藉着见证上帝是爱的行动而加强。这种使人心心相印的联合,不是感情冲动主义的结果,而是健康原则的运作。信心能生发仁爱,并洁净心灵的一切自私。心灵就这样在爱里得以完全。我们既因基督的宝血而获得了恩惠与怜悯,又怎能不存温柔怜悯的心呢?……{HP110.2}[2]

Christ has shown His great love for us by giving His life that we should not perish in our sins, that He might clothe us with His salvation. If this divine love is cherished in our hearts, it cements and strengthens our union with those of like faith. “He that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him” (1 John 4:16). The strengthening of our love for our brethren and sisters strengthens our love for Christ. This principle of love for God and for those for whom Christ died, needs to be quickened by the Holy Spirit and cemented with brotherly kindness, tenderness; it needs to be strengthened by acts which testify that God is love. This union, which joins heart with heart, is not the result of sentimentalism, but the working of a healthful principle. Faith works by love, and purifies the soul from all selfishness. Thus the soul is perfected in love. And having found grace and mercy through Christ’s precious blood, how can we fail to be tender and merciful? ...{HP 110.2}[2]

《以赛亚书》第五十八章说明了要相信耶稣基督为我们个人的救主,是赦免我们诸般罪孽与过犯的主。其中还说明了那生发仁爱和洁净心灵一切自私之信心的果实。信心与行为在这里合而为一。{HP110.3}[3]

Faith in Jesus Christ as our personal Saviour, the One who pardons our sins and transgressions, the One who is able to keep us from sin and lead us in His footsteps, is set forth in the fifty-eighth chapter of Isaiah. Here are presented the fruits of a faith that works by love and purifies the soul from selfishness. Faith and works are here combined.{HP 110.3}[3]

“我所拣选的禁食,不是要松开凶恶的绳,解下轭上的索,使被欺压的得自由,折断一切的轭么?不是要把你的饼分给饥饿的人;将飘流的穷人接到你家中;见赤身的给他衣服遮体;顾恤自己的骨肉而不掩藏么?这样,你的光就必发现如早晨的光;你所得的医治要速速发明;你的公义必在你前面行;耶和华的荣光必作你的后盾。……耶和华也必时常引导你,在干旱之地使你心满意足,骨头强壮;你必象浇灌的园子,又象水流不绝的泉源”(赛58:6-11)。{HP110.4}[4]

“Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh? Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the Lord shall be thy rereward.... And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.”30{HP 110.4}[4]
