“有一个撒种的出去撒种”(太13:3)。JNN267.1

“Beholdower went out to sow.”—Matthew 13:3{JNN 267.1}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第253章
“有一个撒种的出去撒种。”当时的中东地带局势动荡,盗匪横行,所以百姓大都住在城里。农民每天要到城外去劳动。天上的播种者也是这样出来撒种。祂离开了祂既平安又安全的家,撇下了那未有世界以先就与天父同享的荣耀,抛弃了祂宇宙的宝座,来作一个多受痛苦,常经忧患的人。祂独自出去,流泪撒种,用自己的血,浇灌播撒在沦亡世界中的生命种子。JNN267.2
耶稣超乎万名之名-第253章
In the East the state of affairs was so unsettled, and there was so great danger from violence that the people dwelt chiefly in walled towns, and the husbandmen went forth daily to their labor outside the walls. So Christ, the heavenly Sower, went forth to sow. He left His home of security and peace, left the glory that He had with the Father before the world was, left His position upon the throne of the universe. He went forthuffering, tempted man; went forth in solitude, to sow in tears, to water with His blood, the seed of life foorld lost.{JNN 267.2}

祂的仆人也要这样出去撒种。当上帝呼召亚伯拉罕撒播真理的种子时,祂吩咐他说:“你要离开本地、本族、父家,往我所要指示你的地去”(创12:1)。他“出去的时候,还不知往哪里去”(来11:8)。保罗在耶路撒冷圣殿里祈祷的时候,上帝的信息临到他说:“你去吧!我要差你远远的往外邦人那里去”(徒22:21)。照样,凡蒙召与基督联合的人,为了跟从祂,就必须撇下一切所有的。旧有的交往必须断绝,谋生的计划必须放弃,属世的希望必须打消。要劳苦流泪,孤独牺牲,把种子播撒出去。JNN267.3

His servants in like manner must go forth to sow. When called to becomower of the seed of truth, Abraham was bidden, “Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, untand thaill show thee” (Genesis 12:1). “And he went out, not knowing whither he went” (Hebrews 11:8). So to the apostle Paul, praying in the temple at Jerusalem, came the message from God, “Depart; foill send thee far hence unto the Gentiles” (Acts 22:21). So those who are called to unite with Christ must leave all, in order to follow Him. Old associations must be broken up, plans of life relinquished, earthly hopes surrendered. In toil and tears, in solitude, and through sacrifice, must the seed be sown.{JNN 267.3}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第253章
“撒种之人所撒的,就是道。”基督来把真理播撒在世上。人类堕落以后,撒但一直在撒播谬道的种子。最初他用了一句谎言控制了人类,如今他仍然这样在地上颠覆上帝的国度,好使人类受他的权势控制。基督作为一个撒种者,从天上来撒布真理的种子。祂本列在上帝的议会中,住在自有永有的圣所里,当然能给人带来真理的纯洁原则。自从人类堕落以来,基督一直向世界显示真理。那不能坏的种子,就是“上帝活泼常存的道,”藉着祂得以传播人间(彼后1:23)。基督在伊甸园向堕落人类发出第一个应许时,就撒下了福音的种子。但是这个撒种的比喻特别适用于祂亲自在人间所作的服务,以及祂藉此所创立的圣工。(COL36-38)JNN267.4

“The sower soweth the word.” Christ came to sow the world with truth. Ever since the fall of humanity, Satan has been sowing the seeds of error. It was bie that he first gained control over men and women, and thus he still works to overthrow God’s kingdom in the earth and to bring people under his powerower froigher world, Christ came to sow the seeds of truth. He who had stood in the councils of God, who had dwelt in the innermost sanctuary of the Eternal, could bring to humans the pure principles of truth. Ever since the fall of humanity, Christ had been the Revealer of truth to the world. By Him the incorruptible seed, “the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever,” is communicated to men and women (1 Peter 1:23). In that first promise spoken to our fallen race in Eden, Christ was sowing the gospel seed. But it is to His personal ministry among humanity and to the work which He thus established that the parable of the sower especially applies.—Christ’s Object Lessons, 36-38.{JNN 267.4}
