文稿发布-第02卷-第46章
(1895年11月20日,在会见澳大利亚主要工人的时候,怀爱伦回答了几个提问。这次会见的报告于1900年左右由她的儿子J.E.怀特发表于《南方工作》。在这份广为散发的文件中,他智慧地删去了一句关于奴隶制死灰复燃的话。申请发表这份文稿除了一句斜体的句子之外全文印出。—A.L.怀特){2MR299.1}[1]

[ON NOVEMBER 20, 1895, AT AN INTERVIEW WITH LEADING WORKERS IN AUSTRALIA, ELLEN WHITE ANSWERED CERTAIN QUESTIONS PLACED BEFORE HER. THE REPORT OF THIS INTERVIEW WAS PUBLISHED BY HER SON, J. E. WHITE, ABOUT 1900, IN THE SOUTHERN WORK. IN THIS DOCUMENT FOR RATHER GENERAL DISTRIBUTION HE WISELY OMITTED A SENTENCE CONCERNING THE REVIVAL OF SLAVERY. THIS STATEMENT IS ALL IN PRINT EXCEPT THE ONE SENTENCE IN ITALICS, UPON WHICH RELEASE IS SOUGHT.--ALW.] {2MR 299.1}[1]

Question: "Should not those in the Southern field work on Sunday?" {2MR 299.2}[2]

怀爱伦回答说:“他们要是这么做,就有这样的危险:反对的人一得着一点儿机会,就会彼此煽动,逼迫那么这么做的人,一个一个地除掉他们所恨恶的人。目前守星期日还不是试验。时候将到,那时人们不仅会禁止人在星期日作工,还会设法强迫人在安息日作工,要求人放弃安息日,赞同遵守星期日,否则就要丧失自由和生命。然而这事的时候还没有来到,因为真理必须得到更加充分的传讲,在众人面前作见证。我就此所说的话不可被理解为指的是明白真理的老安息日信徒的行为。他们必须照主给他们的指示行动,但愿他们考虑一下,他们能在星期日做最好的传道工作。{2MR299.3}[3]

E. G. White Answer: If they do this, there is danger that as soon as the opposing element can get the slightest opportunity, they will stir up one another to persecute those who do this, and to pick off those whom they hate. At present, Sundaykeeping is not the test. The time will come when men will not only forbid Sunday work, but they will try to force men to labor on the Sabbath. And men will be asked to renounce the Sabbath and to subscribe to Sunday observance or forfeit their freedom and their lives. But the time for this has not yet come, for the truth must be presented more fully before the people as a witness. What I have said about this should not be understood as referring to the action of old Sabbathkeepers who understand the truth. They must move as the Lord shall direct them, but let them consider that they can do the best missionary work on Sunday. {2MR 299.3}[3]

奴隶制将在南方死灰复燃,因为奴隶制的精神依然存在。所以在有色人种中间作工的人不可以象在别处那样大胆而公开自由地传讲真理。就连基督都给祂的教训披上象征和比喻,好避免法利赛人的反对。当有色人种觉得自己在安息日的问题上有上帝的道和那些把真理传给他们之人的认可时,一些容易冲动的人就会借机公然反抗星期日法,且因冒昧地挑战他们的压迫者而给自己带来许多愁苦。必须非常忠心地教导有色人种要象基督一样,忍耐地受委屈,以便帮助同胞看见真理的亮光。{2MR299.4}[4]

Slavery will again be revived in the Southern States; for the spirit of slavery still lives. Therefore it will not do for those who labor among the colored people to preach the truth as boldly and openly as they would be free to do in other places. Even Christ clothed His lessons in figures and parables to avoid the opposition of the Pharisees. When the colored people feel that they have the word of God in regard to the Sabbath question, and the sanction of those who have brought them the truth, some who are impulsive will take the opportunity to defy the Sunday laws, and by a presumptuous defiance of their oppressors they will bring to themselves much sorrow. Very faithfully the colored people must be instructed to be like Christ, to patiently suffer wrongs, that they may help their fellow men to see the light of truth. {2MR 299.4}[4]

一种可怕的事态确实正展现在我们面前。根据主就南方园地赐给我的亮光,那里的工作必须尽量明智而谨慎地做成,必须以基督的工作方式做成。人们不久就会发现你信的是星期日还是安息日,因为他们会提问题。然后你就可以告诉他们,但不要采取吸引人注意你的工作的方式。你不必缩减自己在星期日作工的时间。把那天用来教导别人耶稣的爱和真正的悔改会更好。(《文稿》1895年22a号,第4页,〈关于在星期日作工问题的告诫〉,1895年11月20日)1963年10月23日发表{2MR300.1}[5]

A terrible condition of things is certainly opening before us. According to the light which is given me in regard to the Southern field, the work there must be done as wisely and carefully as possible, and it must be done in the manner in which Christ would work. The people will soon find out what you believe about Sunday and the Sabbath, for they will ask questions. Then you can tell them, but not in such a manner as to attract attention to your work. You need not cut short your work by yourself laboring on Sunday. It would be better to take that day to instruct others in regard to the love of Jesus and true conversion.--Ms 22a, 1895, p. 4. ("Words of Caution Regarding Sunday Labor," Nov. 20, 1895.) Released October 23, 1963. {2MR 300.1}[5]
