How the King Recognized the Son of God, March 16
彰显主基督-第76章
“至高上帝的仆人……出来,上这里来吧(但3:26)!{RC89.1}
彰显主基督-第76章
Ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come hither. Daniel 3:26. {RC 89.1}
彰显主基督-第76章
这个信奉异教的王怎能认识上帝儿子的相貌呢?原来这些希伯来俘虏在巴比伦充任要职时,曾在生活与品格上表现真理。当有人问到他们信仰的缘由时,他们曾毫不迟疑地作了见证。他们曾清楚而明确地阐述公义的原则,如此把自己所敬拜之上帝的知识教导周围的人。他们也曾论到基督,就是那将要来的救赎主。因此王能认明那在火中游行的第四位就是上帝的儿子。……{RC89.2}

How did that heathen king know what the Son of God was like? The Hebrew captives filling positions of trust in Babylon had in life and character represented before him the truth. When asked for a reason of their faith, they had given it without hesitation. Plainly and simply they had presented the principles of righteousness, thus teaching those around them of God whom they worshiped. They had told of Christ, the Redeemer to come; and in the form of the fourth in the midst of the fire the king recognized the Son of God.... {RC 89.2}

于是沙得拉、米煞、亚伯尼歌当着聚集的众人从火窑中出来了,显明他们一点也没有受伤。那与他们同在的救主已经保护他们不受伤害,只是捆绑他们的绳索被烧尽了。“那些总督、钦差、巡抚和王的谋士,一同聚集看这三个人,见火无力伤他们的身体,头发也没有烧焦,衣裳也没有变色,并没有火燎的气味。”……{RC89.3}

Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came forth before the vast multitude, showing themselves unhurt. The presence of their Saviour had guarded them from harm, and only their fetters had been burned. “And the princes, governors, and captains, and the king’s counsellors, being gathered together, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had no power, nor was an hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed on them.” ... {RC 89.3}

尼布甲尼撒因那一天的经历发布了一道谕旨:“无论何方、何国、何族的人,谤渎沙得拉、米煞、亚伯尼歌之上帝的,必被凌迟,他的房屋必成粪堆。”他强调这道谕旨的理由说:“因为没有别神能这样施行拯救。”{RC89.4}
彰显主基督-第76章
The experiences of that day led Nebuchadnezzar to issue a decree, “That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill.” “There is no other God,” he urged as the reason for the decree, “that can deliver after this sort.” {RC 89.4}
彰显主基督-第76章
巴比伦王用这些以及类似的话想要在地上一切人民之前声明:他确信希伯来人之上帝的能力和权威是配得无上崇敬的。王这样尽力向上帝表示尊敬,并传布他承认忠顺上帝的事到全巴比伦领域,是上帝所喜悦的。{RC89.5}
彰显主基督-第76章
In these and like words the king of Babylon endeavored to spread abroad before all the peoples of earth his conviction that the power and authority of the God of the Hebrews was worthy of supreme adoration. And God was pleased with the effort of the king to show Him reverence, and to make the royal confession of allegiance as widespread as was the Babylonian realm. {RC 89.5}
彰显主基督-第76章
尼布甲尼撒王作这一次公开的表白,并追求尊荣天上的上帝过于一切别神,是应该的;但他在企图强迫百姓作同样信仰的表示,并表显出同样的尊敬这件事上,却已越过一个地上君王的权限。无论在政治的立场或道德的立场,他既没有权力下一道命令把不肯敬拜金像的人投进火窑,也没有权利以死亡威吓不敬拜上帝的人。上帝决不强迫人顺从祂。祂让人人自由选择他们所要侍奉的对象。(PK.509,510){RC89.6}
彰显主基督-第76章
It was right for the king to make public confession, and to seek to exalt the God of heaven above all other gods; but in endeavoring to force his subjects to make a similar confession of faith and to show similar reverence, Nebuchadnezzar was exceeding his right as a temporal sovereign. He had no more right, either civil or moral, to threaten men with death for not worshiping God, than he had to make a decree consigning to the flames all who refused to worship the golden image. God never compels the obedience of man. He leaves all free to choose whom they will serve.—Prophets and Kings, 509-511. {RC 89.6}
