奋斗与勇敢-第22章
(创4:8-16)
“于是该隐离开耶和华的面”(创4:16)。{CC 27.1}[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第22章
Genesis 4:8-16[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第22章
上帝曾给该隐认罪的机会。他有充分的时间来反省。他知道自己所行之事的严重性,也知道所说掩饰的话是虚伪的;但他仍旧反抗,所以上帝的判决就不再耽延了。……{CC 27.2}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第22章
And Cain went out from the presence of the Lord. Genesis 4:16. {CC 27.1}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第22章
该隐的罪虽然该受死刑的判决,但慈悲的创造主仍旧饶了他的性命,并给他悔改的机会。可惜该隐硬着心肠,去鼓动反抗上帝权威的精神,他就成了一族厚颜无耻,肆无忌惮之罪人的魁首。这一个离道叛教的人,受了撒但的迷惑,竟成了试探别人的工具;而且他的榜样和影响发出腐化的力量,以致世界败坏,满了强暴,到了必须毁灭的地步。……{CC 27.3}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第22章
God had given Cain an opportunity to confess his sin.... He knew the enormity of the deed he had done, and of the falsehood he had uttered to conceal it; but he was rebellious still, and sentence was no longer deferred.... {CC 27.2}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第22章
该隐受了上帝的咒诅之后,就退出他父亲的家庭。……他已经离开耶和华的跟前,放弃了恢复伊甸的应许,而在被罪所咒诅的地上追求产业和享乐。这样,他就作了那些敬拜世界之神者的魁首。在那单单有关世俗和物质的进步上,他的后裔有了显著的成就。可是他们眼中没有上帝,并违抗上帝对于人类的旨意。(PP.77-81){CC 27.4}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第22章
Notwithstanding that Cain had by his crimes merited the sentence of death, a merciful Creator still spared his life, and granted him opportunity for repentance. But Cain lived only to harden his heart, to encourage rebellion against the divine authority, and to become the head of a line of bold, abandoned sinners. This one apostate, led on by Satan, became a tempter to others; and his example and influence exerted their demoralizing power, until the earth became so corrupt and filled with violence as to call for its destruction.... {CC 27.3}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第22章
上帝从前暂时饶了凶手该隐的命,是要给世人一个实例,说明容忍罪人生存,任意放肆,将有什么结果。由于该隐的教训和榜样所发出的影响,他的子子孙孙都陷入了罪恶中,直到“人在地上罪恶甚大,终日所思想的尽都是恶”(创6:5)。(GC543){CC 27.5}[5]
奋斗与勇敢-第22章
Upon receiving the curse of God, Cain had withdrawn from his father’s household.... He had gone out from the presence of the Lord, cast away the promise of the restored Eden, to seek his possessions and enjoyment in the earth under the curse of sin, thus standing at the head of that great class of men who worship the god of this world. In that which pertains to mere earthly and material progress, his descendants became distinguished. But they were regardless of God, and in opposition to His purposes for man.32 {CC 27.4}[5]

从前该隐怎样离开上帝的面去寻找自己的家,浪子怎样“往远方去”流浪,罪人也照样从忘记上帝的生活中寻欢作乐(罗1:28)。(COL200){CC 27.6}[6]
奋斗与勇敢-第22章
In sparing the life of Cain the murderer, God gave the world an example of what would be the result of permitting the sinner to live to continue a course of unbridled iniquity. Through the influence of Cain’s teaching and example, multitudes of his descendants were led into sin, until “the wickedness of man was great in the earth,” and “every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” 33 {CC 27.5}[6]
