“你们就是我们的荐信,写在我们的心里,被众人所知道、所念诵的”(林后3:2)。{UL 258.1}[1]

Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men.2 Corinthians 3:2.{UL 258.1}[1]

我们时时刻刻何等地需要耶稣基督啊!……惟愿每人都稳立在自己的岗位上,诚恳、坚决,而有能力地推进上帝的圣工,高举那上面写着“上帝诫命和耶稣真理”的旌旗。……我们也许很热心地教授圣经,但我们若不藉着与圣经的伟大性相称的努力来尊崇真理,则我们的心里对于基督所存的意念,就不会归荣耀给那位克己并牺牲自我的救赎主。我们时时刻刻都须要基督。我们须要仰望祂,并研究祂的品德。基督若处在我这样的境地会怎样行事为人呢?这应作为我们责任的衡量。宣讲真理而行事却与它的教训相背驰,在家庭生活和商务经营上显示虔诚的外貌而全无虔诚的能力,原是可能的事。{UL 258.2}[2]

O how greatly we need Jesus Christ every moment! ... Let every man stand in his lot and in his place, working with earnestness, decision, and power to advance God’s cause, bearing aloft the standard on which are inscribed the words “The commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.” ... We may teach the Bible ever so zealously, but if we do not honor the truth by efforts proportionate to its greatness, we shall form ideas of Christ which do not honor the self-denying, self-sacrificing Redeemer. We need Christ every moment. We need to look up and study His character. What would Christ do were He in my place? is to be our measurement of our duty. It is possible to preach the Word and walk directly contrary to its teaching, showing in the home life and in business life a form of godliness without the power.{UL 258.2}[2]

心中对基督只存暗晦不明的观念乃是不足够的,我们所需要的乃是一位常与我们同在的基督。我们需要吃用他的道,他是生命的粮,启示的圣言是我们所有基督的肖像。唯有将基督充满了心灵我们才能将世界摈逐。身体的生命怎样在乎我们所进的食物,同样地,心灵的生命也在乎我们所吃用属灵的粮食。{UL 258.3}[3]

Vague suppositions regarding Christ are not enough. We need an abiding Christ. We need to eat His Word. He is the Bread of Life. The revealed Word is our photograph of Christ. The world can only be expelled from the soul by filling the soul with Christ. Just as the life of the body is produced by the temporal food eaten, so the life of the soul is produced by the spiritual food eaten.{UL 258.3}[3]

想享有属灵的生命和活力的人,必须吃上帝儿子的肉,喝祂的血。基督宣称,“我就是生命的粮,到我这里来的,必定不饿;信我的,永远不渴。”“吃我肉喝我血的人就有永生,在末日我要叫他复活。我的肉真是可吃的,我的血真是可喝的。吃我肉喝我血的人常在我里面,我也常在他里面。永活的父怎样差我来,我又因父活着;照样,吃我肉的人也要因我活着”(约6:35,54-57)。{UL 258.4}[4]

He who would have spiritual life and vigor must eat the flesh and drink of the blood of the Son of God. Christ declares, “I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.” “Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him. As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me” (John 6:35, 54-57).{UL 258.4}[4]

现在我不能再写什么,不久的将来要再给你写信。今晨一点钟之后我睡不着觉,我有许多必须思索的事。今天威利和卫理和(A.J.)安德森医生要往旧金山去,出席那边的医务会议,在那边要解决好些重要的问题,深望所决定的都能符合基督的旨意。(《信函》1901年125号,9月1日,致当时在纽约市黑人中间进行传道工作的S.N.赫斯格长老夫妇){UL 258.6}[6]

But I cannot write more now. I will try to write again soon. I could not sleep after one o’clock this morning. I have had many things to think of. Today Willie and Dr. [A. J.] Sanderson go to San Francisco to attend a meeting of the Medical Board, where some important matters will be settled, we hope, after the mind of Christ.—Letter 125, September 1, 1901, to Elder and Mrs. S. N. Haskell, who were doing evangelistic work among the blacks of New York City.{UL 258.6}[6]
