The Necessity of Constant Growth in Grace, October 28
彰显主基督-第302章
“所以弟兄们,应当更加殷勤,使你们所蒙的恩召和拣选坚定不移。你们若行这几样,就永不失脚”(彼后1:10)。{RC315.1}
彰显主基督-第302章
Give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall. 2 Peter 1:10. {RC 315.1}
彰显主基督-第302章
从不圣洁的地步改变到圣洁的地步,乃是一种继续不断的过程。上帝天天在为人的成圣而作工,而人则必须与祂合作,恒切地努力养成正当的习惯。他必须“恩上加恩”。当他这样“加”的时候,上帝的恩典必要“加倍”地降在他身上。我们的救主时常准备着垂听并且应允痛悔之心的祈祷,又将恩惠与平安“加倍”地赐给祂忠心的儿女。祂乐意将他们在与罪恶的斗争中所需要的恩惠赐给他们。{RC315.2}
彰显主基督-第302章
The work of transformation from unholiness to holiness is a continuous one. Day by day God labors for man’s sanctification, and man is to cooperate with Him, putting forth persevering efforts in the cultivation of right habits. He is to add grace to grace; and as he thus works on the plan of addition, God works for him on the plan of multiplication. Our Saviour is always ready to hear and answer the prayer of the contrite heart, and grace and peace are multiplied to His faithful ones. Gladly He grants them the blessings they need in their struggle against the evils that beset them. {RC 315.2}
彰显主基督-第302章
有一等人试图攀登基督徒进步的阶梯;但当他们进行时时候,却渐渐依靠人的能力而忘记了那为他们的“信心创始成终的耶稣”。结果就是失败——前功尽弃。那些半途灰心,听任人类的仇敌夺去他们心中与生活中正在成长的基督徒美德的人真是可怜。使徒说:“人若没有这几样,就是眼瞎,只看见近处的,忘了他旧日的罪已经得了洁净。”{RC315.3}
彰显主基督-第302章
There are those who attempt to ascend the ladder of Christian progress; but as they advance they begin to put their trust in the power of man, and soon lose sight of Jesus, the Author and Finisher of their faith. The result is failure—the loss of all that has been gained. Sad indeed is the condition of those who, becoming weary of the way, allow the enemy of souls to rob them of the Christian graces that have been developing in their hearts and lives. “He that lacketh these things,” declares the apostle, “is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.” {RC 315.3}
彰显主基督-第302章
使徒彼得曾经在属上帝的事上得到多年的经验。他对于上帝救人之能力的信心也与日俱增,直到他毫无疑问地证明了:一个人若凭着信心向前迈进,始终不渝地逐步攀登那一直通到天国门户的阶梯,他是不可能失败的。{RC315.4}
彰显主基督-第302章
The apostle Peter had had a long experience in the things of God. His faith in God’s power to save had strengthened with the years, until he had proved beyond question that there is no possibility of failure before the one who, advancing by faith, ascends round by round, ever upward and onward, to the topmost round of the ladder that reaches even to the portals of heaven. {RC 315.4}
彰显主基督-第302章
多年以来,彼得常向信徒强调基督徒在恩典和真理知识上继续长进的必要。这时,他既知道自己不久要为信仰殉身,就再度叫人注意每一个信徒所有的宝贵特权。这个年老力衰的门徒以充分的信心劝勉弟兄们务要在基督徒的生活上坚持一生的宗旨。他恳劝他们说:“应当更加殷勤,使你们所蒙的恩召和拣选坚定不移;你们若行这几样,就永不失脚。这样,必叫你们丰丰富富的,得以进入我们主救主耶稣基督永远的国。”{RC315.5}
彰显主基督-第302章
For many years Peter had been urging upon the believers the necessity of a constant growth in grace and in a knowledge of the truth; and now, knowing that soon he would be called to suffer martyrdom for his faith, he once more drew attention to the precious privileges within the reach of every believer. In the full assurance of his faith the aged disciple exhorted his brethren to steadfastness of purpose in the Christian life. “Give diligence,” he pleaded, “to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: for so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.” {RC 315.5}

这是何等宝贵的应许阿!当一个信徒凭着信心向基督徒完美品格的高原迈进时,他的希望是多么光荣阿!(AA.532,533){RC315.6}
彰显主基督-第302章
Precious assurance! Glorious is the hope before the believer as he advances by faith toward the heights of Christian perfection!—The Acts of the Apostles, 532, 533. {RC 315.6}
