主必快来-第137章
“他们说:‘来吧!我去拿酒,我们饱饮浓酒,明日必和今日一样,就是宴乐无量极大之日’”(赛56:12)。
主必快来-第137章
Come ye, say they, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and tomorrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant. Isaiah 56:12. {Mar 144.1}
主必快来-第137章
恶仆人在他心里说:“我的主人必来得迟。”他并没有说基督不会再来,也没有讥诮祂第二次降临的事。但是在他的心里和他的言行上,他却表明救主的降临是迟延了。他也消除了别人心中所有主必快来的信念。他的影响使人任意僭越自恃,疏忽预备。他们醉生梦死于世俗和愚蒙之中,心中充满了属世的情欲和腐败的思想。那恶仆和醉酒的人一同吃喝,与世人一同寻求罪中之乐。他打他的同伴,控告并谴责那些忠心侍奉主的人。……{Mar 144.1}
主必快来-第137章
The evil servant says in his heart, “My lord delayeth his coming.” He does not say that Christ will not come. He does not scoff at the idea of His second coming. But in his heart and by his actions and words he declares that the Lord’s coming is delayed. He banishes from the minds of others the conviction that the Lord is coming quickly. His influence leads men to presumptuous, careless delay. They are confirmed in their worldliness and stupor. Earthly passions, corrupt thoughts, take possession of the mind. The evil servant eats and drinks with the drunken, unites with the world in pleasure seeking. He smites his fellow servants, accusing and condemning those who are faithful to their Master.... {Mar 144.2}
主必快来-第137章
基督的降临必要出乎那些假教师的意料之外,使他们惊讶不已。他们正在那里说“平安稳妥”呢。正如祭司和教师们在耶路撒冷陷落之前,还指望着教会要享受地上的繁盛和荣华。当时所发生的许多征象,他们都解释为光明的先兆。但圣经里有什么话呢?──“灾难忽然临到他们”(帖前5:3)。……{Mar 144.2}
主必快来-第137章
The advent of Christ will surprise the false teachers. They are saying, “Peace and safety.” Like the priests and teachers before the fall of Jerusalem, they look for the church to enjoy earthly prosperity and glory. The signs of the times they interpret as foreshadowing this. But what saith the Word of Inspiration? “Sudden destruction cometh upon them.” ... {Mar 144.3}
主必快来-第137章
世人将主的降临推到遥远的将来。他们讥诮别人给他们的警告。他们夸口说:“万物与起初创造的时候仍是一样”(彼后3:4)。“明日必和今日一样,就是宴乐无量极大之日”(赛56:12)。我们要更进一步地追求宴乐。但是基督说:“我来像贼一样”(启16:15)。正当世人讥诮说:“主要降临的应许在那里呢?”祂降临的预兆却正在应验呢。当他们说“平安稳妥”的时候,灾祸忽然临头。当讥诮的人和拒绝真理的人,到了僭越自恃的地步时,当各追求财利的例行工作正在不顾道义地进行时,当求知的人正在急切寻求各样知识却遗弃圣经时,基督要像贼一样临到他们。(FLB.342){Mar 144.3}
主必快来-第137章
Men are putting afar off the coming of the Lord. They laugh at warnings. The proud boast is made, “All things continue as they were from the beginning.” “Tomorrow shall be as this day and much more abundant.” 2 Peter 3:4; Isaiah 56:12. We will go deeper into pleasure loving. But Christ says, “Behold, I come as a thief.” Revelation 16:15. At the very time when the world is asking in scorn, “Where is the promise of his coming?” the signs are fulfilling. While they cry, “Peace and safety,” sudden destruction is coming. When the scorner, the rejecter of truth, has become presumptuous; when the routine of work in the various money-making lines is carried on without regard to principle; when the student is eagerly seeking knowledge of everything but his Bible, Christ comes as a thief.25 {Mar 144.4}
