The Power of Truthfulness, June 21
一同在天上-第174章
“口吐真言,永远坚立;舌说谎话,只存片时”(箴12:19)。{HP179.1}[1]
一同在天上-第174章
The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.Proverbs 12:19.{HP 179.1}[1]
一同在天上-第174章
有些人把自己与真理紧密地结合在一起,以致没有什么东西,甚至是殉道和死亡也不能使他们与真理分离。而那些以缄默来规避真理,惟恐得罪他人的人,是在为谎言作证。在真理上反复无常,掩饰真情以迎合他人的意见,意味着信仰的丧失。但愿我们藐视伪证。但愿我们决不因言行或缄默而为谎言作证。……{HP179.2}[2]
一同在天上-第174章
There are those who have so closely identified themselves with the truth that nothing, not even martyrdom and death, could sever them from it. Those who would evade the truth by silence, fearing to offend someone else, testify to a lie. Playing fast and loose with truth and dissembling to suit the opinions of someone else, means the shipwreck of faith. Let us despise falsifying. Let us never by a word or act or by silence testify to a lie....{HP 179.2}[2]
一同在天上-第174章
一切说假话的人是在侍奉那从起初就说谎的撒但。我们务须谨防不诚实,因为行久会成习。我要对大家说:当以真理作为你的腰带。要忠于你们的信仰。要除去一切闪烁不定和夸张不实的言语,决不要说一句假话。为了自己和他人灵魂的缘故,务要说话诚实。言语行为决不可虚假。惟独真理可以反复述说。坚守真理是形成基督化品格不可或缺的条件。“所以你们要站稳了,用真理当作带子束腰,用公义当作护心镜遮胸”(弗6:14)。{HP179.3}[3]
一同在天上-第174章
All who make untruthful statements ... are serving him who has been a liar from the beginning. Let us be on our guard against untruthfulness, which grows upon him who practices it. I say to all, make truth your girdle. Be true to your faith. Put away all prevarication and exaggeration. Never make a false statement. For the sake of your own soul and the souls of others, be true in your utterances. Never speak or act a falsehood. The truth alone will bear to be repeated. A firm adherence to truth is essential to the formation of Christian character. “Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness” (Ephesians 6:14).{HP 179.3}[3]
一同在天上-第174章
凡是说假话的人就是廉价出卖自己的灵魂。虚伪的行为或者在紧急的情况下一时有利;人在商业上也许能用虚伪的手段得到他用正当的方法所不能得到的发展,但这种人最后会到不敢相信任何人的地步。他自己既是一个虚伪的人,所以他对别人的话也不相信了。{HP179.4}[4]
一同在天上-第174章
He who utters untruths sells his soul in a cheap market. His falsehoods may seem to serve in emergencies. He may make business advancement because he gains by falsehood what he could not gain by fair dealing. But he finally reaches the place where he can trust no one. Himself a falsifier, he has no confidence in the word of others.34{HP 179.4}[4]
一同在天上-第174章
除了真理之外,绝无抵制罪恶的保障。人心中若没有真理居住,就不能主持正义。惟有一种能力可以保守我们坚定不移,那就是藉着基督的恩典赐给我们的上帝大能。{HP179.5}[5]
一同在天上-第174章
There is absolutely no safeguard against evil but truth. No man can stand firm for right in whose heart the truth does not abide. There is only one power that can make and keep us steadfast—the power of God, imparted to us through the grace of Christ.35{HP 179.5}[5]
一同在天上-第174章
人性与基督联合,就会变得纯洁真诚。基督会提供效能,使人成为向善的力量。……诚实正直是属于上帝的性情。凡拥有这些性情的人,就具有战无比不胜的力量。{HP179.6}[6]
一同在天上-第174章
Connected with Christ, human nature becomes true and pure. Christ supplies the efficiency, and man becomes a power for good.... Truthfulness and integrity are attributes of God, and he who possesses these qualities possesses a power that is invincible.36{HP 179.6}[6]
