“耶稣又对众人说:‘若有人要跟从我,就当舍己,天天背起他的十字架来跟从我’”(路9:23)。{HP225.1}[1]

And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.Luke 9:23.{HP 225.1}[1]
一同在天上-第220章
基督说,我们应当象祂那样生活。……祂所走的是牺牲的道路。在我们的人生中,有许多服务的机会。我们周围有许多敞开的服务之门。藉着正确地运用口才,我们可以为主作许多事。语言若带有基督的温柔和同情,就是为善的力量。金钱、影响、机智、时间和力量━━这一切都是委托给我们的恩赐,使我们更能帮助周围的人,尊荣我们的创造主。{HP225.2}RH.1912.2.29[2]
一同在天上-第220章
Christ declares that as He lived so we are to live.... His footsteps lead along the pathway of sacrifice. As we pass through life there come to us many opportunities for service. All around us there are open doors for ministry. By the right use of the talent of speech we may do much for the Master. Words are a power for good when they are weighted with the tenderness and sympathy of Christ. Money, influence, tact, time, and strength—all these are gifts entrusted to us to make us more helpful to those around us and more of an honor to our Creator.{HP 225.2}[2]

许多人认为去访问基督在世时活动的地方,走祂所走过的路,目睹祂喜爱施教的湖边,和祂常常观望的山谷去游览,乃是莫大的特权。然而我们要追随耶稣的脚踪,并不必到巴勒斯坦去。在病床旁,在平民窟里,在都市拥挤的小巷中,在一切人心需要安慰的地方,到处都有耶稣的足迹。{HP225.3}[3]
一同在天上-第220章
Many feel that it would be a privilege to visit the scenes of Christ’s life on earth, to walk where He trod, to look upon the lake where He loved to teach, and the valleys and hills where His eyes so often rested; but we need not go to Palestine in order to walk in the steps of Jesus. We shall find His footprints beside the sickbed, in the hovels of poverty, in the crowded alleys of the great city, and in every place where there are human hearts in need of consolation.6{HP 225.3}[3]

我们怎样循着河流所产生的青葱草木追溯河流的踪迹,照样,也可循着基督沿途每一步所留下的仁慈行为,得以寻见祂。祂无论何往,都有健康产生,祂所经之地,都有福乐随来。瞎子和聋子在祂面前欢喜快乐。许多眼睛初次看见的是祂的容颜;许多耳朵初次听见的是祂的话语。……祂向愚蒙人所讲的话为他们开启了生命之源。祂不住地广赐福惠。这些福惠乃是收藏的永恒财宝,主所赋予人类的丰盛恩赐。{HP225.4}[4]
一同在天上-第220章
Just as we trace the pathway of a stream of water by the line of living green it produces, so Christ could be seen in the deeds of mercy that marked His path at every step. Wherever He went, health sprang up, and happiness followed wherever He passed. The blind and deaf rejoiced in His presence. The face of Christ was the first that many eyes had ever looked upon; His words the first that had ever fallen upon their ears.... His words to the ignorant opened to them a fountain of life. He dispensed His blessings abundantly and continuously. They were the garnered treasures of eternity, the Lord’s rich gift to man.7{HP 225.4}[4]

亿万人行将灭亡,被捆绑在无知和罪恶的锁链之下。他们从来没有听过基督对他们所有的爱。假使我们和他们易地而处,则我们愿意他们为我们做些什么呢?凡这一切,我们有最严肃的义务在能力所及的范围之内为他们服务。基督所定的人生原则,就是决定我们每人在审判大日或存或亡的原则,乃是:“你们愿意人怎样待你们,你们也要怎样待人”(太7:12)。{HP225.5}[5]
一同在天上-第220章
Millions upon millions of souls ready to perish, bound in chains of ignorance and sin, have never so much as heard of Christ’s love for them. Were our conditions and theirs reversed, what would we desire them to do for us? All this, as far as lies in our power, we are under the most solemn obligation to do for them. Christ’s rule of life, by which every one must stand or fall in the judgment, is, “Whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them.”8{HP 225.5}[5]
