God’s Prior Claims, October 22
一同在天上-第297章
“恐怕你心里说:这货财是我力量我能力得来的。你要记念耶和华你的上帝,因为得货财的力量是祂给你的”(申8:17-18)。{HP302.1}[1]
一同在天上-第297章
And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth. But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth.Deuteronomy 8:17, 18.{HP 302.1}[1]
一同在天上-第297章
凡以爱上帝为至上的人,必认识到自己已在上帝所赐给他们的货财上富裕到无可计量的地步。……人并没有一样东西是他有独占权的。就连他本人也不是属于他的,因为他是用重价,就是上帝儿子的血买来的。基督对于我们世界的全部的产业拥有主权。祂能启动一连串环境的变化,将多年所积攒的财物一扫而光。祂也能收回祂儿女所需要的帮助。……{HP302.2}[2]
一同在天上-第297章
Those who love God supremely will realize that they are rich beyond computation in the wealth that God gives them.... Man possesses nothing to which he has an exclusive right. He does not even own himself; for he has been bought with a price, even the blood of the Son of God. Christ has a claim on all the property in our world. He can set in operation a train of circumstances which will sweep away the accumulated gain of years. He can also call in needed help for His children....{HP 302.2}[2]

赐人生命气息的是上帝。我们无法始创;我们只能收集上帝所始创的。祂是我们的监护者,我们的顾问;除此以外,我们更从祂丰厚的供应中,领受我们所拥有的一切技术、机智和才干。……你所拥有的一切都是祂的恩赐,因为没有一样是你所创造或购买的。这些恩赐给你,不是要成为楔子,将你与祂分开,而是要帮助你为祂服务。{HP302.3}[3]
一同在天上-第297章
It is God who gives man the breath of life. We cannot originate; we can only collect that which God has originated. He is our guardian, our counsellor; and more than this, from His liberal supply we derive all the skill, tact, and ability that we possess.... All you possess is His gift, for you had nothing with which to create or purchase it. It is given you, not to become a wedge to separate you from Him, but to help you in doing His service.{HP 302.3}[3]
一同在天上-第297章
世人一旦忘记了自己的才能和财产是属于上帝的,他就是在侵吞主的财物。他在效法那个不义的管家,迫使主将祂的财物转交给更忠心的人。上帝吩咐凡受托管理祂财物的人要忠心地处置这些财物,向世人证明他们是在为拯救罪人而效劳。祂吩咐凡自称受祂监督的人不要在品格上误表祂。……祂每天将恩惠加给我们。……但愿我们藉着将祂所赐给我们的财富分给别人来荣耀祂。{HP302.4}[4]
一同在天上-第297章
The moment a man loses sight of the fact that his capabilities and possessions are the Lord’s, that moment he is embezzling his Lord’s goods. He is acting the part of an unjust steward, provoking the Lord to transfer His goods to more faithful hands. God calls upon those to whom He has entrusted His goods to handle them faithfully, to show to the world that they are laboring for the salvation of sinners. He calls upon those who profess to be under His supervision not to misrepresent Him in character.... He daily loadeth us with benefits.... Let us glorify Him by imparting to others the abundance He has bestowed upon us.{HP 302.4}[4]
一同在天上-第297章
这是何等神圣的,何等圣洁无私的爱!但愿我们作为主的代表,认识到因显出自私而误表救主是一件多么可怕的事。上帝吩咐祂的儿女向世人表明祂不是自私的,而是满有慷慨无私的计划。祂正等候人作传达祂丰盛之爱的渠道。{HP302.5}[5]
一同在天上-第297章
O for love, sacred, holy, unselfish love! Let us, as the Lord’s representatives, realize what a terrible thing it is to misrepresent the Saviour by revealing selfishness. God calls upon His sons and daughters to show to the world that He is not selfish, but full of liberal, unselfish plans. He is waiting for channels through which to communicate the wealth of His love.33{HP 302.5}[5]
