Examples of Sanctified Lives
And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.1 John 4:16.{ML 257.1}[1]
今日的生活-第254章
约翰在品格和生活上所表现信赖的爱心与无私的献身,对于基督教会有极宝贵的教训。有人认为约翰有这样的爱心,并不靠上帝的恩典。其实他天性上有许多严重的缺点。他不但骄傲自大,野心勃勃,而且一受轻视和伤害就生气。……{ML 257.2}[2]
今日的生活-第254章
The confiding love and unselfish devotion manifested in the life and character of John present lessons of untold value to the Christian church. Some may present him as possessing this love independent of divine grace; but John had, by nature, serious defects of character: he was proud and ambitious and quick to resent slight and injury....{ML 257.2}[2]

约翰希望变成耶稣的样式。在基督之爱改变人心的影响力之下,他变得心里柔和谦卑。自我藏在耶稣里面。他与活葡萄树紧密相连,从而与上帝的性情有份。这是与基督联合的结果,是真正的成圣。{ML 257.3}[3]
今日的生活-第254章
John desired to become like Jesus, and under the transforming influence of the love of Christ, he became meek and lowly of heart. Self was hid in Jesus. He was closely united to the Living Vine, and thus became a partaker of the divine nature. Such will ever be the result of communion with Christ. This is true sanctification.{ML 257.3}[3]
今日的生活-第254章
人也许在品格上有显著的缺点,但他成为耶稣的真门徒后,上帝恩典的能力就会使他成为新造的人。基督的爱改变了他,使他成圣。但是人若自称为基督徒,而他的宗教并没有使他在生活的各方面成为更好的人--在性情和品格上作基督的活代表--他们就与祂毫无关系。(SL 54.55){ML 257.4}[4]
今日的生活-第254章
There may be marked defects in the character of an individual, yet when he becomes a true disciple of Jesus, the power of divine grace makes him a new creature. Christ’s love transforms, sanctifies him. But when persons profess to be Christians, and their religion does not make them better men and better women in all the relations of life—living representatives of Christ in disposition and character—they are none of His.20{ML 257.4}[4]
今日的生活-第254章
约翰享有真正成圣之福。但要注意,使徒并没有自称无罪。他藉着行在上帝圣颜的光中追求完全。他作证说,凡自称认识上帝,却又违犯上帝律法的人,是在否定自己的表白。……我们固然要爱那些基督为之舍命的人,并且努力使他们得救,但我们决不能与罪恶妥协。我们不可与悖逆之徒联合,而说这就是爱。上帝要祂现代的子民象约翰一样坚决地主持正义,反对一切足以危害心灵的谬论。(SL 65){ML 257.5}[5]
今日的生活-第254章
John enjoyed the blessing of true sanctification. But mark, the apostle does not claim to be sinless; he is seeking perfection by walking in the light of God’s countenance. He testifies that the man who professes to know God, and yet breaks the divine law, gives the lie to his profession.... While we are to love the souls for whom Christ died, and labor for their salvation, we should not make a compromise with sin. We are not to unite with the rebellious, and call this charity. God requires His people in this age of the world to stand, as did John in his time, unflinchingly for the right, in opposition to soul-destroying errors.21{ML 257.5}[5]
