God Tests Our Loyalty to Him, December 5
彰显主基督-第340章
“以色列全会众……在利非订安营。百姓没有水喝”（出17:1）。{RC353.1}
彰显主基督-第340章
And all the congregation of the children of Israel ... pitched in Rephidim: and there was no water for the people to drink. Exodus 17:1. {RC 353.1}
彰显主基督-第340章
按照上帝的吩咐，以色列人被带到利非订，一个缺水的地方。隐身在云柱中的主在引领着他们；他们在这里安营是遵照祂的明令。上帝知道利非订缺水，祂带领祂的子民来到这里是要考验他们的信心。但他们不幸证明自己是不值得祂信任的百姓。{RC353.2}
彰显主基督-第340章
By the command of God, the children of Israel were brought to Rephidim, a place destitute of water. He who was enshrouded in the pillar of cloud was leading them, and it was by His express command that they were encamped at this place. God knew of the lack of water at Rephidim, and He brought His people hither to test their faith; but how poorly they proved themselves to be a people whom He could trust! {RC 353.2}
彰显主基督-第340章
祂一再向他们显示自己。为了拯救他们，祂击杀了埃及所有家庭的长子，以大能的手领他们出离为奴之地。祂用天使的食物供养他们，又与他们立约要带领他们到应许之地。但现在面对困难，他们就叛逆，不信靠上帝，埋怨摩西把他们和他们的儿女从埃及领出来，是要他们在旷野里渴死。……{RC353.3}
彰显主基督-第340章
Again and again He had manifested Himself to them. He had slain the firstborn of all the families in Egypt to accomplish their deliverance, and had brought them out of the land of their captivity with a high hand; He had fed them with angels’ food, and had covenanted to bring them into the Promised Land. But now, when difficulty rose before them, they broke into rebellion, distrusted God, and complained that Moses had brought them and their children out of Egypt only that they might die of thirst in the wilderness.... {RC 353.3}
彰显主基督-第340章
现在有许多人以为自己一旦开始了基督徒的生活，就会摆脱一切缺乏和困难。然而每一个背起自己的十字架跟从基督的人都要都要有利非订的经历。人生不都是青葱的草原和清凉的川流。我们会遭遇失望，穷困，或者陷入困境。当我们行走窄路，自以为尽到努力之时，我们会发现痛苦的试炼临到我们。我们心神不宁中推测，假如我们与上帝同行，是决不会这样受苦的。……{RC353.4}
彰显主基督-第340章
Many today think that when they begin their Christian life they will find freedom from all want and difficulty. But everyone who takes up his cross to follow Christ comes to a Rephidim in his experience. Life is not all made up of green pastures and cooling streams. Disappointment overtakes us, privations come, circumstances occur which bring us into difficult places. As we follow in the narrow way, doing our best, as we think, we find that grievous trials come to us.... Conscience stricken, we reason, if we had walked with God, we would never have suffered so.... {RC 353.4}
彰显主基督-第340章
但正如古时主曾带领祂的子民来到利非订，现在祂也会将我们带到那里，以考验我们对祂的信心和忠诚。祂本着自己的怜悯，不会总是将我们放在最轻松之处。如果祂这么做，我们出于自负，会在需要的时候忘记主是我们的帮助者。然而祂希望在我们的紧急之时显现自己，供大量的资源给我们使用，以克服我们的环境。主允许沮丧和磨难临到我们，是为了让我们认识到自己的无助，学会如同孩童在饥渴时呼唤地上父亲那般呼求主的帮助。{RC353.5}
彰显主基督-第340章
But of old the Lord led His people to Rephidim, and He may choose to bring us there also, in order to test our faithfulness and loyalty to Him. In mercy to us, He does not always place us in the easiest places; for if He did, in our self-sufficiency we would forget that the Lord is our helper in time of necessity. But He longs to manifest Himself to us in our emergencies, and reveal the abundant supplies that are at our disposal, independent of our surroundings; and disappointment and trial are permitted to come upon us that we may realize our own helplessness, and learn to call upon the Lord for aid, as a child, when hungry and thirsty, calls upon its earthly father. {RC 353.5}
彰显主基督-第340章
我们的天父有能力把顽石转化为振作人心的赐生命之泉。到了我们与上帝面对面的时候，我们会才知道祂为我们背负了多少重担，又有多少重担原是祂乐意替我们承担的，只要我们怀着孩子般的信心将重担卸给祂。（ST.1896.9.10）{RC353.6}
彰显主基督-第340章
Our heavenly Father has the power of turning the flinty rock into life-giving and refreshing streams. We shall never know, until we are face to face with God, ... how many burdens He has borne for us, and how many burdens He would have been glad to bear if, with childlike faith, we had brought them to Him.—The Signs of the Times, September 10, 1896. {RC 353.6}
