Chapter 24—Danger of Formalism

在从事例行程序等方面的安排时,决不可偏离安息日学的宗旨,免得占用了应该用在重要之事务上的时间。我们应当经常注意,免得徒具外表形式及仪节,而偏离了我们工作的真正目的。过度遵照刻板的顺序而行,就有使安息日为人所厌倦的危险。反之,它应该使人感到舒适、清新、得到福气。不要以无穷尽的形式掩盖了安息日学的纯朴,否则就没有时间从事宗教方面的事了。安息日学的成功与美就在乎以简单而热诚的方式侍奉上帝。没有次序和规矩就不能作什么事,然而如果行之不当,就会把更大,更重要的责任掩蔽住了。应该少向学员提到外表的准备和程序,而应当多提到他们灵魂的得救问题,这应当是安息日学的主导原则。{TSS 89.1}

The object of the Sabbath-school should not be lost sight of in mechanical arrangements, thus occupying time which should be given to other important matters. We should ever be guarded against forms and ceremonies which will eclipse the real object for which we are laboring. There is danger of carrying system to such an extreme that the Sabbath-school will become weariness, when, on the contrary, it should be a rest, a refreshment, and a blessing. The purity and simplicity of the Sabbath-school must not be swallowed up in such an endless variety of forms that sufficient time can not be devoted to religious interests. The beauty and success of the school are in its simplicity and earnestness in serving God. Nothing can be done without order and regulation, but these may be arranged so as to shut out greater and more important duties. Less should be said to the scholars about the external preliminaries and system, and much more should be said in regard to the salvation of their souls. This must be made the ruling principle of the school. {TSS 89.1}

教师和主理若是心中怀有耶稣的爱,反复述说耶稣之爱的古老故事,就会有一种使人心知罪悔改的能力。耶稣的爱与温柔若是已经感动了你的心,你就能为学员们工作。必须记住福音的简朴。我们既有来自上面的帮助,就能忠心地为主作工。要经常使学员记住这个事实:若没有内心的工作,我们一切的努力都会徒然。安息日学的教师和管理人员一举一动都应叫人看出有情有爱。冷淡的形式主义应当被热诚和活力所取代。耶稣的爱应该弥漫在整个安息日学中,以致学生会认明这是最高的教育。严厉或挑剔在安息日学或走读学校中都不应有容身之地。教师和凡在安息日中居领导地位的人,心中都应远远抛弃这种精神。{TSS 89.2}

The old, old story of the love of Jesus, repeated by the teachers and the superintendent, with the love of Jesus in the heart, will have a power that will convict and convert souls. If the love and tenderness of Jesus has touched your heart, you will be able to work for your scholars. The simplicity of the gospel must be kept in view. With help from above we can do faithful work for the Master. The fact should be kept continually before the scholars that without heart work all our efforts will be in vain. Affection and love should be seen in every movement of the teachers and managers of the school. Cold formality should be replaced by earnest zeal and energy. The love of Jesus should so pervade the whole school that the pupils will learn to regard this as the highest education. Sternness or faultfinding should find no place in Sabbath-school or day school. This should be put far from the hearts of the teachers, and of all who act a leading part in the school. {TSS 89.2}

不应以安息日学的形式或机械呆板的工作方式为荣,而应以使人归向耶稣基督所成就的善事为荣。机器虽然能被造得顺着人的意思行事,完美准确地运行,但却没有灵魂。形式主义占了领导地位的学校也是这样,就象没有生命的大理石了。何时凡参与安息日学工作的人都对自己的工作有了责任感,并且感到自己不仅是在为今生,而且是在为永恒而努力,每一个部门就都会显出秩序与和谐了。(《安息日学工作者》1895年10月1日){TSS 90.1}

Pride should not be felt in the forms or mechanical workings of the school, but in the good that is accomplished in bringing souls to Jesus Christ. Machines may be made to respond to the will of man, working with perfect exactitude, but they are destitute of souls. So with schools where formality takes a leading place; it is as marble without life. When all connected with the school have a sense of the responsibility of their work, and feel that they are making efforts, not only for time, but for eternity, order and harmony will be seen in every department.—Sabbath-School Worker, October 1, 1895. {TSS 90.1}
