chap. 26-Providing Promising Contacts
论健康食品-第29章
我为上帝的工作和事业负着重担。我看到缺乏原则的表现,和人们对那对我们来说意义重大的信息信心软弱的表现时,就很担心。现在我不得不写一些东西,论到使健康食品业务和餐馆工作走极端的危险。我曾写过要开办餐馆,作为使那些知道真理的人与世人接触的一个手段,并且提供机会,使这些人接触现代真理的信息。那些到这些餐馆就餐的人要是改革自己的饮食习惯,就会更好地预备听从支持真理的论据。{HFM 66.2}[1]
论健康食品-第29章
I am carrying a heavy burden for the work and cause of God. As I see the lack of principle manifested, and the feeble faith that is shown in the message that means so much to us, I am filled with fear. I am now obliged to write some things in regard to the danger of carrying the health food business and the restaurant work to extremes. I have written that restaurants should be established as a means of bringing those who know the truth into touch with the people of the world, and of providing opportunities of reaching these people with the message of present truth. Should those attending these restaurants reform in their habits of eating, they would be better prepared to listen to arguments in favor of the truth.{HFM 66.2}[1]

然而若是没有藉着餐馆的工作引起人们对永恒重要之事深厚而且活泼的兴趣,这项工作又有什么收获呢?基督渴望生灵得救,祂渴望看到祂为之舍命的人接受他们唾手可得的福气。难道祂要为他们枉然而死吗?撒但会利用每一个机会使人不效忠上帝。他和与他一同堕落的天使会在地上以人形显现,设法行骗。上帝的使者也会以人形显现,且会用他们力所能及的一切手段挫败仇敌的企图。我们也有本分采取行动。我们若不英勇地为主作战,就必被战胜。{HFM 66.3}[2]
论健康食品-第29章
But if by the restaurant work there is not awakened a deep and living interest in the things of eternal importance, what is gained by the work? Christ is hungry for souls, hungry to see those for whom He gave His?life receiving the blessings placed within their reach. Shall He have died for them in vain? Satan will use every opportunity to seduce men from their allegiance to God. He and the angels who fell with him will appear on the earth as men, seeking to deceive. God’s angels, also, will appear as men, and will use every means in their power to defeat the purposes of the enemy. We, too, have a part to act. We shall surely be overcome unless we fight manfully the battles of the Lord.{HFM 66.3}[2]

为了让那些爱上帝并且遵守祂诫命的人在前往天国的路上尽量少有阻碍,主才警告他们不要住在城市里。要是我们的餐馆工作没有争取人归向真理,这么多地参与这项必须在城市里开展的工作又有什么收获呢?结果会证明所付出的努力是对的吗?我们的青年男女花费自己的光阴和精力为世俗的人预备和提供食物,同时却不做任何努力去拯救他们的灵魂,不引导他们看见现代真理的亮光,这样值得吗?-Letter1903.83写于1903年5月13日{HFM 67.1}[3]
论健康食品-第29章
It is in order that those who love God and keep His commandments may have as little hindrance as possible in their advancement in the heavenward way that they are warned not to live in the cities. If by our restaurant work souls are not won to the truth, what is gained by entering so largely into this work, which must be done in the cities? Will the result justify the effort put forth? Will it pay for our young men and young women to spend their time and energy in providing and serving food for worldlings, while they make no effort to save their souls, no effort to lead them to see the light of present truth??Letter 83, 1903?(written May 13, 1903).{HFM 67.1}[3]
