Angels Amazed at God’s Plan to Save Humanity, January 25
得胜的基督-第26章
“天使岂不都是服役的灵,奉差遣为那将要承受救恩的人效力么”(来1:14)?{CTr 31.1}[1]
得胜的基督-第26章
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation??Hebrews 1:14.{CTr 31.1}[1]
得胜的基督-第26章
人类所藉以得救的惟一计划把全天庭都包括在其无限的牺牲之中。当基督把救赎的计划向众天使说明时,他们是不能快乐的。因为他们看出,为要拯救人类,必须由他们所爱戴的无帅遭受言语所不能形容的祸患。众天使忧伤惊异地听基督告诉他们,祂如何必须离开天庭的纯洁与平安,放弃天庭的喜乐,荣耀和永生,而降到堕落的世界,忍受忧愁,耻辱和死亡。{CTr 31.2}[2]
得胜的基督-第26章
The plan by which alone humanity’s salvation could be secured involved all heaven in its infinite sacrifice. The angels could not rejoice as Christ opened before them the plan of redemption, for they saw that salvation of the human race must cost their loved Commander unutterable woe. In grief and wonder they listened to His words as He told them how He must descend from heaven’s purity and peace, its joy and glory and immortal life, and come in contact with the degradation of earth, to endure its sorrow, shame, and death.{CTr 31.2}[2]
得胜的基督-第26章
祂必须站在罪人和罪的刑罚之间。 然而只有很少人肯接受祂为上帝的儿子。祂愿意离开天上之君的崇高地位,自己卑微,在地上成为人的样式,而且亲身经历人类所要忍受的一切忧患和试探。这一切都是祂所必需经受的,为了“搭救被试探的人”(来2:18)。{CTr 31.3}[3]
得胜的基督-第26章
He was to stand between the sinner and the penalty of sin; yet few would receive Him as the Son of God. He would leave His high position as the Majesty of heaven, appear upon the earth and humble Himself as a man, and by His own experience become acquainted with the sorrows and temptations that humans would have to endure. All this would be necessary in order that He might be able to succor them that should be tempted.{CTr 31.3}[3]
得胜的基督-第26章
当祂作教师的任务完成之后,祂必须被交在恶人手中,受撒但所能怂恿他们加在祂身上的各种侮辱和痛苦。祂必须受最残酷的死,以罪人的身份在天地之间被举起来。祂必须经受长期可怕的剧痛,甚连天使也掩面不忍观看。当违犯律法的罪责──全世界罪恶的重担──都压在祂身上的时候,祂必须忍受天父向祂掩面的心灵上的惨痛。{CTr 31.4}[4]
得胜的基督-第26章
When His mission as a teacher should be ended, He must be delivered into the hands of wicked men and be subjected to every insult and torture that Satan could inspire them to inflict. He must die the cruelest of deaths, lifted up between the heavens and the earth as a guilty sinner. He must pass long hours of agony so terrible that angels could not look upon it, but would veil their faces from the sight. He must endure anguish of soul, the hiding of His Father’s face, while the guilt of transgression—the weight of the sins of the whole world—should be upon Him.{CTr 31.4}[4]
得胜的基督-第26章
众天使俯伏在他们的无帅的脚前,都愿意献上自己为人类牺牲。但是一个天使的生命并不足以偿付人类的罪债。惟有创造人类的主才能救赎人类。然而天使在救赎的计划中也有他们的一份工作。基督为了“受死的苦”,竟“成为比天使小一点”的人。在祂取了人性之后,祂的力量就不如天使。所以天使要伺候祂,在祂受苦的时候鼓励祂,安慰祂。天使也是服役的灵,奉差遣为那将要承受救恩的人效力(来2:9;1:14)。他们要保护那些承受神恩的人脱离恶天使的权势,脱离撒但所经常笼罩在他们周围的黑暗。……{CTr 31.5}[5]
得胜的基督-第26章
The angels prostrated themselves at the feet of their Commander and offered to become a sacrifice for lost humans. But an angel’s life could not pay the debt; only He who created them had power to redeem them. Yet the angels were to have a part to act in the plan of redemption. Christ was to be made “a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death.” As He should take human nature upon Him, His strength would not be equal to theirs, and they were to minister to Him, to strengthen and soothe Him under His sufferings. They were also to be ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who should be heirs of salvation. They would guard the subjects of grace from the power of evil angels and from the darkness constantly thrown around them by Satan....{CTr 31.5}[5]
得胜的基督-第26章
基督向众天使保证说,藉着祂的死,祂必要救赎多人,并要败坏那掌死权的。(PP.64,65){CTr 31.6}[6]
得胜的基督-第26章
Christ assured the angels that by His death He would ransom many, and would destroy him who had the power of death.—Patriarchs and Prophets, 64, 65.{CTr 31.6}[6]
