彰显主基督-第332章
“耶稣对西门彼得说:‘约翰的儿子西门,你爱我比这些更深吗?’彼得说:‘主啊,是的,你知道我爱你。’耶稣对他说:‘你喂养我的小羊’”(约21:15)。{RC345.1}
彰显主基督-第332章
Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these He said unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. John 21:15. {RC 345.1}
彰显主基督-第332章
《使徒行传》很少提及使徒彼得晚年的工作。……当耶路撒冷和十字架使者所访问的其他地区的信徒人数增多时,彼得所具有的才能对于早期的基督教会有了巨大的贡献。他为拿撒勒的耶稣所作见证的影响,达到远近各地。他身上负有双重的责任:他一方面在不信的人面前为弥赛亚作了积极的见证,热切地设法使他们悔改归正;另一方面他也为信徒作了一番特别的工作,加强他们对于基督的信心。{RC345.2}
彰显主基督-第332章
Little mention is made in the book of Acts of the later work of the apostle Peter.... As the number of believers multiplied in Jerusalem and in other places visited by the messengers of the cross, the talents possessed by Peter proved of untold value to the early Christian church. The influence of his testimony concerning Jesus of Nazareth extended far and wide. Upon him had been laid a double responsibility. He bore positive witness concerning the Messiah before unbelievers, laboring earnestly for their conversion; and at the same time he did a special work for believers, strengthening them in the faith of Christ. {RC 345.2}
彰显主基督-第332章
彼得蒙主呼召担任牧者,乃是在他学会舍己和完全依赖上帝之后。在彼得否认基督之前,基督曾对他说:“你回头以后,要坚固你的弟兄”(路22:32)。这些话说明彼得将来为那些相信真理的人所要从事广大而有效的工作。{RC345.3}
彰显主基督-第332章
It was after Peter had been led to self-renunciation and entire reliance upon divine power, that he received his call to act as an undershepherd. Christ had said to Peter, before his denial of Him, “When thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren” (Luke 22:32). These words were significant of the wide and effectual work which this apostle was to do in the future for those who should come to the faith. {RC 345.3}
彰显主基督-第332章
彼得自己犯罪、受苦和悔改的经验已经给他相当的准备。惟有在他看出自己的软弱之后,他才能体会到一个信徒多么需要依靠基督。在试探的狂风暴雨之下,他已经认明一个人惟有完全不靠自己,而笃信救主,才能步履安祥。……{RC345.4}
彰显主基督-第332章
For this work, Peter’s own experience of sin and suffering and repentance had prepared him. Not until he had learned his weakness, could he know the believer’s need of dependence on Christ. Amid the storm of temptation he had come to understand that man can walk safely only as in utter self-distrust he relies upon the Saviour.... {RC 345.4}
彰显主基督-第332章
基督只向彼得提出一个服务的条件——“你爱我吗?”这是一个必不可少的资格。……基督的爱并不是感情一时的冲动,而是一个活泼的原则,是心灵中一种恒久的原动力。……{RC345.5}
彰显主基督-第332章
Christ mentioned to Peter only one condition of service—“Lovest thou me?” This is the essential qualification.... The love of Christ is not a fitful feeling, but a living principle, which is to be made manifest as an abiding power in the heart.... {RC 345.5}
彰显主基督-第332章
救主对待彼得的方法对于他和他的弟兄都有教训。彼得虽然否认了他的主,但耶稣对于他的爱却始终没有改变。所以当使徒负起传道的工作时,他也要以忍耐、同情、与赦罪的爱对待每一个犯错误的人。他既能想起自己的软弱和失败,就必柔和地对待基督所交给他的羊群和小羊,象基督对待他一样。{RC345.6}
彰显主基督-第332章
The Saviour’s manner of dealing with Peter had a lesson for him and his brethren. Although Peter had denied his Lord, the love which Jesus bore him had never faltered. And as the apostle should take up the work of ministering the Word to others, he was to meet the transgressor with patience, sympathy, and forgiving love. Remembering his own weakness and failure, he was to deal with the sheep and lambs committed to his care as tenderly as Christ had dealt with him.... {RC 345.6}
彰显主基督-第332章
他常高举拿撒勒的耶稣为以色列的希望和人类的救主。他常使自己的生活受到救主的督促和管教。他尽到自己的能力设法训练信徒积极服务。(AA.514-516){RC345.7}
彰显主基督-第332章
Ever he exalted Jesus of Nazareth as the Hope of Israel, the Saviour of mankind. He brought his own life under the discipline of the Master Worker. By every means within his power he sought to educate the believers for active service.—The Acts of the Apostles, 514-516. {RC 345.7}
