耶稣超乎万名之名-第357章
“你们受洗归入基督的,都是披戴基督了”(加3:27)。JNN374.1
耶稣超乎万名之名-第357章
For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.—Galatians 3:27{JNN 374.1}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第357章
古时亚伯拉罕,以撒,雅各,谦和智慧的摩西,多才多艺的约书亚,都参加了上帝的圣工。米利暗的音乐,底波拉的勇敢和虔诚,路得的孝顺,撒母耳的顺从与忠贞,以利亚的严肃和恳挚,以利沙温柔服人的感化力——这一切都是需要的。照样,今日凡蒙受上帝福惠的人也应当报之以实际的服务。要运用各种恩赐来推进祂的国度,增进祂名的荣耀。JNN374.2
耶稣超乎万名之名-第357章
In ancient times, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses with his meekness and wisdom, and Joshua with his varied capabilities, were all enlisted in God’s service. The music of Miriam, the courage and piety of Deborah, the filial affection of Ruth, the obedience and faithfulness of Samuel, the stern fidelity of Elijah, the softening, subduing influence of Elisha—all were needed. So now all upon whom God’s blessing has been bestowed are to respond by actual service; every gift is to be employed for the advancement of His kingdom and the glory of His name.{JNN 374.2}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第357章
凡接受基督为个人救主的人,应当在生活上表显福音的真理,及其救人的能力。上帝既然提出了条件,祂必然为履行条件作好准备。藉着基督的恩典,我们可以实现上帝的每一项要求。天上所有的财富都应藉着上帝的子民显示出来。基督说:“你们多结果子,我父就因此得荣耀,你们也就是我的门徒了”(约15:8)。JNN374.3
耶稣超乎万名之名-第357章
All who receive Christ aersonal Saviour are to demonstrate the truth of the gospel and its saving power upon the life. God makes no requirement without making provision for its fulfillment. Through the grace of Christ we may accomplish everything that God requires. All the riches of heaven are to be revealed through God’s people. “Herein is My Father glorified,” Christ says, “that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be My disciples” (John 15:8).{JNN 374.3}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第357章
上帝称全世界为祂的葡萄园。如今虽然落在篡夺者手里,它仍然是属于上帝的。祂的主权不但根据创造,也是根据救赎。基督曾为了这个世界作出牺牲。“上帝爱世人,甚至将祂的独生子赐给他们”(约3:16)。藉着这个恩赐,其它一切恩赐也都赐给了世人。全世界每天都从上帝领受福惠。那降与我们这不知感恩的人类身上的每一滴雨露,每一线阳光,以及每一片树叶,每一朵花,和每一个果实,都证明上帝的恒久忍耐和伟大爱心。JNN374.4
耶稣超乎万名之名-第357章
God claims the whole earth as His vineyard. Though now in the hands of the usurper, it belongs to God. By redemption no less than by creation it is His. For the world Christ’s sacrifice was made. “God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son” (John 3:16). It is through that one gift that every other is imparted to men. Daily the whole world receives blessing from God. Every drop of rain, every ray of light shed on our unthankful race, every leaf and flower and fruit, testifies to God’s long forbearance and His great love.{JNN 374.4}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第357章
世人怎样报答这位伟大的施给者呢?他们怎样对待上帝的要求呢?芸芸众生是在献身为谁服务呢?他们是在侍奉玛门。他们的目标是属世的财富、地位和享乐。他们用掠夺的手段从上帝和同胞身上获取财富。人们正在用祂的恩赐来满足私欲。他们所能得到的一切,都用为满足自己的贪心和自私的享受。(COL301、302)JNN374.5
耶稣超乎万名之名-第357章
And what returns are made to the great Giver? How are human beings treating the claims of God? To whom are the masses of humanity giving the service of their lives? They are serving mammon. Wealth, position, pleasure in the world, is their aim. Wealth is gained by robbery, not of people only, but of God. Men and women are using His gifts to gratify their selfishness. Everything they can grasp is made to minister to their greed and their love of selfish pleasure.—Christ’s Object Lessons, 301, 302.{JNN 374.5}
