六月二十三日　工会和托拉斯

Labor Unions and Trusts, June 23

　　“弟兄们哪，你们要忍耐，直到主来。看哪，农夫忍耐等候地里宝贵的出产，直到得了秋雨春雨”（雅5:7）。

Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. James 5:7. {Mar 182.1}

　　工会是有史以来从未有过的艰难时期临到世界的媒介之一。（CL 10）{Mar 182.1}

The trades unions will be one of the agencies that will bring upon this earth a time of trouble such as has not been since the world began.60 {Mar 182.2}

　　在我们的各大城市里，会组建成各种同盟和工会。有人要管辖其他人，提出很多要求。凡拒绝加入这些工会的人，生命会受到威胁。（MS.1906.145）{Mar 182.2}

In all our great cities there will be a binding up in bundles by the confederacies and unions formed. Men will rule other men and demand much of them. The lives of those who refuse to unite with these unions, will be in peril.61 {Mar 182.3}

　　上帝子民的工作就是为将来的大事作准备。这些大事很快就要带着令人眼花缭乱的势力临到他们。世上将形成庞大的垄断集团。人们将组成各种联盟，被控制在仇敌的牢笼中。少数人要联合起来攫取某一行业的一切利润。工会要将组织起来。凡不参加的人，将会被另眼看待。……{Mar 182.3}

The work of the people of God is to prepare for the events of the future, which will soon come upon them with blinding force. In the world gigantic monopolies will be formed. Men will bind themselves together in unions that will wrap them in the folds of the enemy. A few men will combine to grasp all the means to be obtained in certain lines of business. Trades unions will be formed, and those who refuse to join these unions will be marked men.... {Mar 182.4}

　　这些工会是末日的兆头之一。人们在把自己捆成捆，准备被焚烧。他们可能是教会的信徒，但他们既已参加这些组织，就不可能遵守上帝的诫命了；因为参加这些组织就意味着无视全部的十诫。{Mar 182.4}

These unions are one of the signs of the last days. Men are binding up in bundles ready to be burned. They may be church members, but while they belong to these unions, they cannot possibly keep the commandments of God; for to belong to these unions means to disregard the entire Decalogue. {Mar 182.5}

　　“你要尽心、尽性、尽力、尽意爱主你的上帝；又要爱邻舍如同自己。”……人怎能一面遵守这样的话，一面却结盟掠夺属下穷苦的阶层，不满足某些条件，就不准他们作买卖呢？{Mar 182.5}

“Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.” ... How can men obey these words, and form combinations that rob the poorer classes of the advantages which justly belong to them, preventing them from buying or selling, except under certain conditions.62 {Mar 182.6}

　　自称为上帝的儿女的人，决不可参加正在组成或将要组成的工会组织。这是主所禁止的。难道研究预言的人还不能看清和明白我们面前的形势吗？（CL 10-12）{Mar 182.6}

Those who claim to be the children of God are in no case to bind up with the labor unions that are formed or that shall be formed. This the Lord forbids. Cannot those who study the prophecies see and understand what is before us? 63 {Mar 182.7}

　　我们将应对重大的问题。我们将希望躲在石缝之中，好看见耶稣，被祂的圣灵所充满。我们没有时间可以浪费了，一刻也不行。（CW 113）{Mar 182.7}

Important issues must soon be met, and we wish to be hid in the cleft of the rock, that we may see Jesus, and be quickened by His Holy Spirit. We have no time to lose, not a moment.64 {Mar 182.8}
