得胜的基督-第164章
“人在最小的事上忠心,在大事上也忠心”(路16:10)。{CTr 169.1}[1]
得胜的基督-第164章
Whoever is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much.Luke 16:10, NRSV.{CTr 169.1}[1]
得胜的基督-第164章
以利沙跟从以利亚,与他结伴旅行时,首先担任仆人的角色。他要做倒水在以利亚手中的卑微工作。然而他坚持从事卑微的职分,直到最后一次旅行。他得知以利亚将要被接升天。以利沙曾蒙召离开十二对耕牛和犁头,毫无怨言地跟随以利亚。他离开爱他的富裕家庭,来侍候这位生活漂流不定的先知。他甘心作最卑微的工作,与以利亚相依为命,表明他赋有经得起试炼和考验的品格,是一个具有宝贵品性的青年人。他经历大量的考验与试探,但他在艰难的环境中信靠上帝。他富裕的家境和安逸的生活是一种试探。他在家中完全有能力进行管理,但他必须通过为以利亚服务而获得一种经验,他必须学会如何在一位管理人手下工作,以便学会侍奉上帝。{CTr 169.2}[2]
得胜的基督-第164章
When Elisha followed Elijah, and traveled with him, he was first given the position of a servant; he had to perform the humble duty of pouring water on the hands of Elijah. Yet he kept at the humble work until the last journey. There it was to be revealed to him that Elijah was to be translated. Called as Elisha was from the twelve yoke of oxen and the plow, he followed Elijah without complaint, leaving a wealthy home where he was beloved, to attend the prophet in his uncertain life. He willingly fulfilled the very humblest duties. His connection with Elijah revealed that he had traits of character that would endure test and trial, that he was a valuable young man with precious traits of character. Trials and temptations he had in abundance, but he relied upon God in trying circumstances. His surroundings of wealth and comfort were a temptation. In his home he was fully capable of ruling, but in the service of Elijah he must obtain an experience, he must learn how to serve under a ruler, that he might learn to serve God.{CTr 169.2}[2]
得胜的基督-第164章
人们在事业上会存在许多错误的观念。他们过高估计自己的能力,但试炼与考验会显明他们需要一种与先前不同的经验,才能成为基督的同工。凡是看不到自己需要在小事上侍奉上帝,从事卑微工作的人,证明他们不适合做更大的事情。他们把卑微的工作视为无关紧要,证明不能托付他们更大的责任。{CTr 169.3}[3]
得胜的基督-第164章
Many errors are entertained by people in their vocations. They overestimate their capabilities, and in test and trial reveal that they need a different kind of experience than they have had in order to be a laborer together with Christ. Persons who do not see their need of serving God in little things, doing humble work, give unmistakable evidence that they are not fitted to serve in larger things. In overlooking the humble service as nonessential, they bear testimony that they cannot be trusted with larger responsibilities.{CTr 169.3}[3]
得胜的基督-第164章
一些人的头脑中充满了一种根深蒂固、难以改变的观念,无意识地将之交织在他们的经验中。他们认为自己必须保持高贵优越的地位,否则他们传道工作的影响就会受到损害。但当他们学会了服务之后,他们就会看出卑微积极的服务会给他们日常生活的职责带来意义,并获得重要的教育,在任何卑微的工作中履行平凡的生活职责──不论是耕田、扶犁、撒种或收割。……{CTr 169.4}[4]
得胜的基督-第164章
The idea that prevails in some minds, and that is difficult to change, an idea they have permitted to be unconsciously woven into their experience, is that a certain position of gentility and dignity must be maintained or else their influence will be marred in their work of preaching. But when these learn to minister, they will know that humble, active service means to interest themselves in the duties of everyday life, and to obtain the education essential to do the ordinary duties of life in any small vocation—it may be in tilling the soil, in following the plow, in sowing or in reaping....{CTr 169.4}[4]
得胜的基督-第164章
不要忽视或低估日常生活的卑微责任。真正归向上帝会像面酵那样影响人生关系的各方面职责。这样,如果主看到我们在最小的事上忠心,殷勤而有恒心地发挥我们的体力,用双手做必须做的事情,祂就会说:“往高处来。可以托付你更大的责任。”(Letter 1897.64){CTr 169.5}[5]
得胜的基督-第164章
There is to be no neglect or low estimate of the lowly, everyday duties of life. True conversion to God will act as leaven in every phase of duty in the relationships of life. Then, if the Lord sees us faithful in that which is least, diligent and persevering in the use of our physical powers, doing with our hands that which someone must do, He will say, “Come up higher. You may be entrusted with greater responsibilities.”—Letter 64, 1897.{CTr 169.5}[5]
