耶稣超乎万名之名-第363章
“光在你们中间,还有不多的时候,应当趁着有光行走”(约12:35)。JNN380.1
耶稣超乎万名之名-第363章
“A little while longer the light is with you. Walk while you have the light.”—John 12:35{JNN 380.1}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第363章
基督的福音是要进取和普及的。凡只顾一己私利的人,在上帝的大日无一能蒙豁免。人无论劳心劳力,都有工作要做。有不同的工种适应不同的心智和才干。每一位与上帝联络的人,都要向别人发出亮光。若是什么人无光可发,那是因为他们没有与光源联络。既有这么多的人专顾自己,埋头于自己的利益,上帝便没有以祂权能更大的显现眷顾各教会,这有什么希奇的呢?他们的虔诚就这样变得平淡软弱了,他们也渐渐变得顽梗自顾了。他们在为别人作工时才会保持自己的心灵活泼。他们如果愿意成为耶稣的同工,我们就会看到亮光在我们的各教会中越照越明,将其光线射入他们自己范围之外的黑暗中。JNN380.2
耶稣超乎万名之名-第363章
The gospel of Christ is aggressive and diffusive. In the day of God not one will be excused for being shut up to his own selfish interests. There is work for every mind, and for every hand, work adapted to different minds and varied capabilities. Everyone who is connected with God will impart light to others. If there are any who have no light to give, it is because they have no connection with the Source of light. Is it any marvel that God does not visit the churches with greater manifestations of His power, when so largumber are shut up in themselves, engrossed in their own interests? It is thus that their piety becomes weakened, and they grow bigoted and self-caring; but by working for others they would keep their souls alive. If they would become co-laborers with Jesus, we should see the light in our churches steadily burning brighter and brighter, sending forth its rays to penetrate the darkness beyond our own border.{JNN 380.2}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第363章
如果教会愿意起来,穿上她美丽的衣服,披戴基督的义,她的影响和她的属灵状况将会发生怎样的变化!猜忌、挑剔、嫉妒、怨恨、不和、争大的心就会止息。在基督的爱与怜悯的使命中与祂密切表同情,会使工人们彼此同情,就不会有人怀存邪恶的倾向了,这种倾向若是得到纵容,就成了各教会的祸根。专心于救灵的工作会激励工人们更加虔诚和纯洁。他们就会有一致的宗旨,且会感到宝贵灵魂的得救是那么重要,以致一切的小分歧都忽略不计了。JNN380.3
耶稣超乎万名之名-第363章
Oh, if the church would arise, and put on her beautiful garments, the righteousness of Christ, whahange would be realized in her influence, and in her spiritual condition! The jealousies and fault-finding, the heart-burnings, the envy and dissensions, the strife for supremacy, would ceaselose sympathy with Christ and His mission of love and mercy, would bring the workers into sympathy with one another, and there would be no disposition to cherish these evils, which, if indulged, are the curse of the church. In giving attention to the work of saving souls, they would be stimulated themselves to greater piety and purity; there would bnity of purpose, and the salvation of precious souls would be felt to be of such great importance that all little differences would be completely swallowed up.{JNN 380.3}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第363章
上帝要教会为他们可以拯救的灵魂负责。如果上帝的子民以她看待他们的方式看待自己,他们就无法忍受正视自己的责任和过失。他们会充满自责之心。……能因他们得救的生灵负责。基督已将神圣的真理托付给你们。祂住在每一位信徒的心中,就是活水的泉源,直涌到永生。你若不尽一切所能把这活水给别人,在上帝面前就是有罪的。(RH1886年10月12日)JNN380.4
耶稣超乎万名之名-第363章
The Lord holds the church responsible for the souls whom they might save. If His people were to see themselves as God sees them, they could not endure to look their responsibilities and delinquencies in the face. Self-reproach would overwhelm them.... If you claim to be the children of God, you are your brother’s keeper. God has entrusted to you sacred truths. Christ abiding in the individual members of the church iell of water, springing up into everlasting life. You are guilty before God if you do not make every effort possible to dispense this living water to others.—The Review and Herald, October 12, 1886.{JNN 380.4}
