Chapter 7—How to Meet Opposition
给作家和编辑的勉言-第8章
《“我们不能倒下”》——不要把大量的光阴和精力花在探讨那些刻意进行抵毁和歪曲的反对者所提出来吹毛求疵的见解上。我们把宝贵的时间用来思考不诚实之对手的歪理,而同时那些诚心愿受感动的人却要因缺乏知识而灭亡。就在人们呼吁按时给他们分粮的时候,撒但所发明的一系列无意义的挑剔之话就摆在了人的面前。{CW 55.1}[1]
给作家和编辑的勉言-第8章
《“We Cannot Come Down”》—Time and strength can be better employed than to dwell at length upon the quibbles of our opponents who deal in slander and misrepresentations. While precious time is employed in following the crooks and turns of dishonest opponents, the people who are open to conviction are dying for want of knowledge. A train of senseless quibbles of Satan’s own invention, are brought before minds, while the people are crying for food, for meat in due season.{CW 55.1}[1]
给作家和编辑的勉言-第8章
那些惯于敌挡真理的人提出了吹毛求疵的学说。我们竟不明智地把这些学说从他们手中接过来,然后传递给成千上万的人。我们如果不把这些学说发表出来,人们是根本不会想到这些学说的。这正是我们的对手希望我们作的。他们想要引起注意,让我们发表出来。有些人特别想要达到这一点。他们炮制谬论,歪曲真理和喜爱倡导真理之人的品格,主要目的就在于此。如果我们不予理睬,视若无睹,这些谬说很快就会销声匿迹。他们不甘寂寞,喜欢反对。要不是我们理会,他们将没有什么影响。……{CW 55.2}[2]

It takes those who have trained their minds to war against the truth to manufacture quibbles. And we are not wise to take them from their hands, and pass them out to thousands who would never have thought of them had we not published them to the world. This is what our opponents want to have done; they want to be brought to notice, and to have us publish for them. This is especially true of some. This is their main object in writing out their falsehoods, and in misrepresenting the truth and the characters of those who love and advocate the truth. They will die out more speedily to be left unnoticed, to have their errors and falsehoods treated with silent contempt. They do not want to be let alone. Opposition is the element that they love. If it were not for this, they would have but little influence....{CW 55.2}[2]

有时我们不得不应付他们公然的歪曲事实。如果遇到这种情况,我们就得迅速采取行动,然后继续我们的工作。我们应当采用基督的教育方法,既明确又简单,一针见血,直接针对各种人的思想。{CW 56.1}[3]
给作家和编辑的勉言-第8章
There are occasions where their glaring misrepresentations will have to be met. When this is the case, it should be done promptly and briefly, and we should then pass on to our work. The plan of Christ’s teaching should be ours. He was plain and simple, striking directly at the root of the matter, and the minds of all were met.{CW 56.1}[3]
给作家和编辑的勉言-第8章
但过于直言不讳亦非上策。有时几句话就能解决问题,驳倒我们的对手,我们就不必说了又说。今天你可以消除一切的障碍,让反对者闭口无言,他们明天还可能卷土重来,一再故伎重演,因为他们不喜欢真光,不愿意来就真光,惟恐会从他们身上消除黑暗和错谬。最好把一些论据先保存起来,不要一古脑儿倾囊而出,使人认为有些道理可以不经认真争辩,就能无据自明。基督传道只有三年时间,在这短短的时间里居然成就了伟大的工作。在当今末日,也有伟大的工作要在短时间内完成。虽然许多人准备有所行动,仍有人会因缺乏亮光和知识而灭亡。{CW 56.2}[4]
给作家和编辑的勉言-第8章
It is not the best policy to be so very explicit, and say all upon a point that can be said, when a few arguments will cover the ground, and be sufficient for all practical purposes to convince or silence opponents. You may remove every prop today, and close the mouths of objectors so that they can say nothing, and tomorrow they will go over the same ground again. Thus it will be, over and over, because they do not love the light, and will not come to the light lest their darkness and error should be removed from them. It is a better plan to keep a reserve of arguments than to pour out a depth of knowledge upon a subject which would be taken for granted without labored argument. Christ’s ministry lasted only three years, and a great work was done in that short period. In these last days, there is a great work to be done in a short time. While many are getting ready to do something, souls will perish for the light and knowledge.{CW 56.2}[4]

如果那些传播和捍卫圣经真理的人,把精力化在调查和揭露那些不诚实地把上帝的真理变为虚谎之人的荒谬和矛盾时,撒但就鼓动我们的对手不停地写作,以致圣工的其他部门受到亏损。{CW 56.3}[5]
给作家和编辑的勉言-第8章
If men who are engaged in presenting and defending the truth of the Bible, undertake to investigate and show the fallacy and inconsistency of men who dishonestly turn the truth of God into a lie, Satan will stir up opponents enough to keep their pens?constantly employed, while other branches of the work will be left to suffer.{CW 56.3}[5]
给作家和编辑的勉言-第8章
我们必须更多地拥有修建耶路撒冷城墙之人的精神。我们正在从事大工。我们不能倒下去。如果撒但能让人不断地应付对手的反对,从而使他们的声音沉寂,妨碍他们从事当下最重要的工作,他的目的就达到了。……{CW 57.1}[6]
给作家和编辑的勉言-第8章
We must have more of the spirit of those men who were engaged in building the walls of Jerusalem. We are doing a great work, and we cannot come down. If Satan sees that he can keep men answering the objections of opponents, and thus keep their voices silent, and hinder them from doing the most important work for the present time, his object is accomplished....{CW 57.1}[6]

世界现在需要服务。到处都有马其顿的呼声:“来帮助我们”!清晰而直截了当的论据,像路标一样明确,所发挥感服人心的效果,要远胜过一大堆涉题广泛的论据。那些论据只有肯刨根究底的人才有兴趣探讨。——《教会证言》卷三36-39页,1872年{CW 57.2}[7]
给作家和编辑的勉言-第8章
The world needs labor now. Calls are coming in from every direction like the Macedonian cry, “Come over and help us.” Plain, pointed arguments, standing out as mileposts, will do more toward convincing minds generally than will a large array of arguments which cover a great deal of ground, but which none but investigating minds will have interest to follow.—Testimonies for the Church 3:36-39 (1872).{CW 57.2}[7]
