God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.—1 John 5:11{JNN 293.1}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第278章
神圣的园主在巴勒斯坦的山上种植了一棵很好的葡萄树。但以色列人藐视这从天上来的树。他们大发雷霆,把它扔在葡萄园的墙外;他们毁损了它,把它践踏在脚下,以为如此就永远把它毁灭了。结果园主把断了的葡萄树挪去,藏在他们所看不见的地方。祂又把它栽种起来,以致树干不再为人所见。树的枝子则挂越墙外,使别的枝子可以接在其上,但树干本身已非人手所能及,也非人力所能伤。?JNN293.2

The Divine Husbandman planteoodly vine upon the hills of Palestine. But the people of Israel despised this root of heavenly origin. Iage they cast it over their vineyard wall; they bruised it, and trampled it under their indignant feet, and hoped that they had destroyed it forever. The Husbandman removed the broken vine, and concealed it from their sight. Again he planted it, but in sucanner that the stock was no longer visible. The branches hung over the wall, and grafts might be joined to it, but the stem itself was placed beyond the power of human beings to reach or harm.{JNN 293.2}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第278章
上帝的儿子带着宽恕、和平和不朽生命的光来到了这个充满罪恶、悲伤和死亡的黑暗世界。“父怎样在自己有生命,就赐给祂儿子也照样在自己有生命”(约5:26)。但世人憎恨基督,因为祂的纯洁与他们自己的邪恶形成了鲜明的对比。他们拒绝了生命的主,并将祂钉在十字架上。上帝叫祂从死里复活,从世人的眼前隐藏。但祂仍然是人类的救世主。祂仍然是葡萄树、属灵生命的源头和维护者。恩典、力量和救恩仍从祂的丰满中出来。虽然看不见葡萄树本身,却能看见它的枝子。当基督从人们的视线中消失时,祂的生命和能力却在祂的追随者身上显现出来。JNN293.3
耶稣超乎万名之名-第278章
To this world, dark with the shadows of sin, sorrow, and death, came the Son of God with the light of pardon, peace, and immortal life. “As the Father hath life in Himself, so hath He given to the Son to have life in Himself.” But the world hated Christ because His perfect purity was in such contrast to their own vileness. They rejected and crucified the Lord of life. God raised Him from the dead, and hid Him from mortal view; but He is still the Saviour of humanity. He is still the vine-stock, the source and sustainer of spiritual life. Still may grace, strength, and salvation be derived from His fullness. Though the Vine itself is unseen, its branches are visible. While Christ is removed from human sight, His life and power are manifested in His followers.{JNN 293.3}

嫁接的枝子仍然可以与树干结合。正如砍断了的树枝,没有叶子,似乎也没有生命,被接在有生命的树干上,它的纤维与脉络不断吸收葡萄树的生命和能力,直到长出蓓蕾、开花、结实,同样,罪人也能藉着悔改和信心与基督联合,与上帝的性情有分,在言行上结出圣洁生活的果实。JNN293.4
耶稣超乎万名之名-第278章
Grafts may still be united with the Vine. As the severed branch, leafless, and apparently lifeless, is engrafted into the living stock, and, fiber by fiber, and vein by vein, drinks in the life and strength of the vine until it buds and blossoms and bears fruit, even so may the sinner, by repentance and faith, connect himself with Christ, becomartaker of the divine nature, and bring forth in words and deeds the fruit ooly life.{JNN 293.4}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第278章
耶稣“在自己有生命”。祂将这生命白白赐给死在罪孽过犯中的人。祂让他们分享祂的清洁、尊荣和高贵。“你看父赐给我们是何等的慈爱,使我们得称为上帝的儿女”(约一3:1)。没有汁液的枝子被嫁接到活葡萄树上以后,就变成葡萄树的一部分。它与葡萄树既有了连系,就得以存活。照样,基督徒也靠着与基督的联合而存活。有罪的人性与圣洁的神性联合起来。(RH1883年9月11日)JNN293.5
耶稣超乎万名之名-第278章
Jesus “has life in Himself,” and this life He offers to impart freely to souls that are dead in trespasses and sins. Yea, He shares with them His purity, His honor, and exaltation. “Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us that we should be called the sons of God.” The sapless branch, engrafted into the living vine, becomeart of the vine. It lives while united to the vine. So the Christian lives by virtue of his union with Christ. The sinful and human is linked to the holy and divine.—The Review and Herald, September 11, 1883.{JNN 293.5}
