二月十日律法如同镜子将罪显明
彰显主基督-第42章
The Law, as a Mirror, Reveals Sin, February 10
彰显主基督-第42章
“凡遵守主道的,爱上帝的心在他里面实在是完全的。从此,我们知道我们是在主里面”(约壹2:5)。{RC55.1}
彰显主基督-第42章
Whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. 1 John 2:5. {RC 55.1}
彰显主基督-第42章
上帝有一个衡量品格的公义标准。这个标准就是祂的圣律法,赐给我们作为人生的准则。我们有责任遵从律法的要求。我们这样做,就是尊崇上帝和耶稣基督;因为上帝颁布了律法,而基督则为了使律法为大为尊而受死。祂说:“你们若遵守我的命令就常在我的爱里,正如我遵守了我父的命令,常在祂的爱里。”……“这世界和其上的情欲都要过去,惟独遵行上帝旨意的,是永远常存。”{RC55.2}
彰显主基督-第42章
God has a standard of righteousness by which He measures character. This standard is His holy law, which is given to us as a rule of life. We are called upon to comply with its requirements, and when we do this we honor both God and Jesus Christ; for God gave the law, and Christ died to magnify it, and make it honorable. He declares: “If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.” ... “The world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.” {RC 55.2}
彰显主基督-第42章
听见基督话语的人多,遵行祂话语的人却少。有人在理论上接受祂的话,却没有印在心灵上,交织在生活中,对品格也没有发挥成圣的影响。接受真理是一回事,在日常生活上实行出来是另一回事。对于只是听见的人,上帝的圣言激发不起感谢的回应。主命令说:“你要尽心、尽性、尽力爱耶和华你的上帝。”人们虽然认为这道命令公正,却没有接受其要求,实行其原则。{RC55.3}
彰显主基督-第42章
There are many hearers, but few doers, of the words of Christ. His words may be theoretically accepted, but if they are not stamped upon the soul, and woven into the life, they will have no sanctifying effect upon the character. It is one thing to accept the truth, and another thing to practice it in the daily life. From those who hear only, God’s Word calls for no grateful response. The commandment, “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength,” is acknowledged to be just, but its claims are not recognized; its principles are not carried out. {RC 55.3}
彰显主基督-第42章
我们都是有罪的,靠自己不可能遵行基督的话。但上帝已经预备方法,使被定为有罪的人可以消除一切污点罪痕。“我们若认自己的罪,上帝是信实的,是公义的,必要赦免我们的罪,洗净我们一切的不义。”基督虽然拯救罪人,却没有废除定人有罪的律法。……律法显示我们的罪,正如镜子显示我们脸上的不干净,镜子没有能力洗净我们的脸;这不是它的功能。{RC55.4}
彰显主基督-第42章
We are all sinful, and of ourselves are unable to do the words of Christ. But God has made provision whereby the condemned sinner may be freed from spot and stain. “If any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.” “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” But while Christ saves the sinner, He does not do away with the law which condemns the sinner.... The law shows us our sins, as a mirror shows us that our face is not clean. The mirror has no power to cleanse the face; that is not its office. {RC 55.4}
彰显主基督-第42章
律法也是如此。它指出我们的缺点,定我们的罪,可是没有能力拯救我们。我们必须到基督面前祈求赦罪。祂要将我们的罪揽在自己心上,使我们在上帝面前得称为义。祂不但要使我们脱离罪,还要赐予我们能力顺服上帝的旨意。……{RC55.5}
彰显主基督-第42章
So it is with the law. It points out our defects, and condemns us, but it has no power to save us. We must come to Christ for pardon. He will take our guilt upon His own soul, and will justify us before God. And not only will He free us from sin, but He will give us power to render obedience to God’s will.... {RC 55.5}
彰显主基督-第42章
今日有许多人树立自己的标准,虽然忽略遵行上帝的旨意,却仍想进入天国。他们只是听见的人。……我们得救的代价是上帝儿子的生命;上帝要求我们将品格建立在经得起审判考验的基础之上。(ST.1896.9.24){RC55.6}
彰显主基督-第42章
Today many erect a standard of their own, thinking to gain heaven, even though they neglect to do God’s will. But all such are building upon the sand. They are hearers only.... Our salvation cost the life of the Son of God, and God demands of us that we build our characters upon a foundation that will stand the test of the judgment.—The Signs of the Times, September 24, 1896. {RC 55.6}
