奋斗与勇敢-第150章
(撒上15:)
“现在你要去击打亚玛力人,灭尽他们所有的,不可怜惜他们”(撒上15:3)。{CC 155.1}[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第150章
1 Samuel 15[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第150章
耶和华差遣祂的仆人再去传一个信息给扫罗,使他还可以藉着顺从证明自己是效忠上帝,并配作以色列的领袖。于是撒母耳来到王那里,把耶和华的话传给他。……{CC 155.2}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第150章
Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not. 1 Samuel 15:3. {CC 155.1}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第150章
亚玛力人曾最先在旷野里攻击以色列人;因了这个罪,以及他们公然反抗上帝和腐败的拜偶像的罪,耶和华曾藉摩西宣布对他们的处分。上帝曾指示摩西把亚玛力人对待以色列人的残忍行为记载下来,并吩咐他说:“你要将亚玛力的名号,从天下涂抹了;不可忘记”(申25:19)。但这判决的执行已经迟延了四百年,而亚玛力人没有转离他们的罪恶。耶和华知道,如果这个邪恶的民族有可能的话,他们就要从地上消灭祂的子民和祂的宗教。如今时候到了,这迟延那么长久的判决必须付诸执行了。{CC 155.3}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第150章
The Lord sent His servant with another message to Saul. By obedience he might still prove his fidelity to God and his worthiness to walk before Israel. Samuel came to the king and delivered the word of the Lord.... {CC 155.2}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第150章
上帝向恶人所施的容忍常使世人在罪中更加胆大妄为;但是他们所应受的刑罚并不因长久耽延而影响其威力及其必然性。……虽然祂不以报应为乐,但祂必要在违犯祂律法的人身上执行审判。祂不得不如此作,为要保全地上居民免致全然堕落与败亡。为要多拯救一些人起见,祂必须剪除那些在罪中怙恶不悛的人。……而且祂的迟迟不愿执行审判,正足以说明那招致祂刑罚的罪是何等严重,又说明那等待着违犯律法之人的报应是何等的可怕。{CC 155.4}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第150章
The Amalekites had been the first to make war upon Israel in the wilderness; and for this sin, together with their defiance of God and their debasing idolatry, the Lord, through Moses, had pronounced sentence upon them.... For four hundred years the execution of this sentence had been deferred; but the Amalekites had not turned from their sins. The Lord knew that this wicked people would, if it were possible, blot out His people and His worship from the earth. Now the time had come for the sentence, so long delayed, to be executed. {CC 155.3}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第150章
但当上帝降罚的时候,祂仍不忘施恩。亚玛力人是要被毁灭的,但住在他们中间的基尼人却得幸免。这一族人虽然没有完全脱离拜偶像的罪,但他们是敬畏上帝并对以色列表示友好的。摩西的内兄何巴就是这一族的人。他曾陪伴以色列人在旷野里旅行,因他熟悉那地方的地势,曾给过他们很多帮助。(PP627,628){CC 155.5}[5]
奋斗与勇敢-第150章
The forbearance that God has exercised toward the wicked, emboldens men in transgression; but their punishment will be none the less certain and terrible for being long delayed.... While He does not delight in vengeance, He will execute judgment upon the transgressors of His law. He is forced to do this, to preserve the inhabitants of the earth from utter depravity and ruin. In order to save some He must cut off those who become hardened in sin.... And the very fact of His reluctance to execute justice testifies to the enormity of the sins that call forth His judgments and to the severity of the retribution awaiting the transgressor. {CC 155.4}[5]
