John and Judas—A Contrast, November 6
奋斗与勇敢-第311章
“人若说他住在主里面,就该自己照主所行的去行”(约壹2:6)。{CC 316.1}[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第311章
He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. 1 John 2:6. {CC 316.1}[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第311章
在使徒约翰的生活上可以得到一个真正“成圣”的例证。在他多年与基督亲密交往的经验中,救主常警告并训诫他,而他也领受了这些责备。当神圣夫子的品德向约翰显现时,他就看出自己的缺点。他因这启示而自卑了。……他在上帝儿子的日常生活上所看到的权能与温慈,威严与柔和,力量与忍耐,令他心中甚为敬佩羡慕。他那报复和贪求的性情都顺服于基督塑造的能力,并且上帝的爱也改变了他的品格。{CC 316.2}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第311章
In the life of the disciple John true sanctification is exemplified. During the years of his close association with Christ, he was often warned and cautioned by the Saviour; and these reproofs he accepted. As the character of the Divine One was manifested to him, John saw his own deficiencies, and was humbled by the revelation.... The power and tenderness, the majesty and meekness, the strength and patience, that he saw in the daily life of the Son of God, filled his soul with admiration. He yielded his resentful, ambitious temper to the molding power of Christ, and divine love wrought in him a transformation of character. {CC 316.2}[2]

在约翰生活上所成就的成圣之工与他同伴犹大的经验适成鲜明的对照。……约翰认真地与自己的过错抗争;犹大则违背良心,屈从试探,固守恶习。……{CC 316.3}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第311章
In striking contrast to the sanctification worked out in the life of John is the experience of his fellow disciple, Judas.... John warred earnestly against his faults; but Judas violated his conscience and yielded to temptation, fastening upon himself more securely his habits of evil.... {CC 316.3}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第311章
约翰和犹大代表一般自称是跟从基督的人。这两个门徒拥有同样的机会,都可以学习并效法那神圣的模范。二人都与耶稣有亲密的来往,都有特权聆听祂的教训。他们二人各都具有品格上严重的缺点;各都可以接受那改变品格的上帝恩典。但约翰以谦卑的心效学耶稣的样式;而犹大则显明自己没有“行道”,只是“单单听道。”约翰天天治死自我,战胜罪恶,并因真理而成圣;犹大则抗拒上帝恩典改变人心的能力,放纵自私的欲望,终于受了撒但的捆绑。{CC 316.4}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第311章
John and Judas are representatives of those who profess to be Christ’s followers. Both these disciples had the same opportunities to study and follow the divine Pattern. Both were closely associated with Jesus and were privileged to listen to His teaching. Each possessed serious defects of character; and each had access to the divine grace that transforms character. But while one in humility was learning of Jesus, the other revealed that he was not a doer of the word, but a hearer only. One, daily dying to self and overcoming sin, was sanctified through the truth; the other, resisting the transforming power of grace and indulging selfish desires, was brought into bondage to Satan. {CC 316.4}[4]

在约翰的生活中所看到的这种品格上的改变,乃是圣徒与基督相交的必然结果。一个人可能在品格上有显著的缺点。但当他成为基督的忠实门徒时,上帝恩典的能力就必改变他,使他成圣。这好象从镜子里反照得以看见主的荣光,荣上加荣,就变成他所崇敬之主的形状。(AA559){CC 316.5}[5]
奋斗与勇敢-第311章
Such transformation of character as is seen in the life of John is ever the result of communion with Christ. There may be marked defects in the character of an individual, yet when he becomes a true disciple of Christ, the power of divine grace transforms and sanctifies him. Beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, he is changed from glory to glory, until he is like Him whom he adores.9 {CC 316.5}[5]
