奋斗与勇敢-第39章
(创12:1-9)
“亚伯拉罕因着信,蒙召的时候,就遵命出去,往将来要得为业的地方去;出去的时候,还不知往那里去”(来11:8)。{CC 44.1}[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第39章
Genesis 12:1-9[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第39章
亚伯拉罕生长在迷信和邪教的环境中。甚至连他那曾保存认识耶和华之知识的父家,也受了四围败坏的影响,离弃了耶和华去“事奉别神”(书24:2)。……{CC 44.2}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第39章
By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went. Hebrews 11:8. {CC 44.1}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第39章
上帝给亚伯拉罕的信息是:“你要离开本地,本族,父家,往我所要指示你的地去”(创12:1)。上帝为使亚伯拉罕有资格从事祂的大工,作为祂圣言的保守者,就必须叫他离开早年的生活环境。……亚伯拉罕毫无疑问的顺从,是全部圣经中有关信心最显著的凭据之一。……{CC 44.3}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第39章
Abraham had grown up in the midst of superstition and heathenism. Even his father’s household, by whom the knowledge of God had been preserved, were yielding to the seductive influences surrounding them, and they “served other gods” than Jehovah.... {CC 44.2}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第39章
这个临到亚伯拉罕的试验实在不轻。所要他付出的牺牲也真不小。本地本族和父家对于他原有一种难以割舍的联系。可是他顺从了上帝的呼召,一点儿也没有迟疑。关于应许之地,他也没有发什么问题,──例如地土是否肥美?气候是否适于健康?是否有合宜的环境?是否有发财的机会等等。他认为上帝既已吩咐,祂的仆人就理当顺从。地上最幸福的地方就是上帝要他去的地方。{CC 44.4}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第39章
The message of God came to Abraham, “Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will show thee.” In order that God might qualify him for his great work as the keeper of the sacred oracles, Abraham must be separated from the associations of his early life.... Abraham’s unquestioning obedience is one of the most striking evidences of faith to be found in all the Bible.... {CC 44.3}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第39章
今日许多人也要像亚伯拉罕那样受到试验。……上帝或许要他们放弃一个有希望得财富和享尊荣的事业,辞别意气相投的益友,并离开本族,到那表面上只有克已、艰辛和牺牲的路上去。上帝有一种工作要他们去作。……{CC 44.5}[5]
奋斗与勇敢-第39章
It was no light test that was thus brought upon Abraham, no small sacrifice that was required of him. There were strong ties to bind him to his country, his kindred, and his home. But he did not hesitate to obey the call. He had no question to ask concerning the land of promise—whether the soil was fertile and the climate healthful; whether the country afforded agreeable surroundings and would afford opportunities for amassing wealth. God had spoken, and His servant must obey; the happiest place on earth for him was the place where God would have him to be. {CC 44.4}[5]
奋斗与勇敢-第39章
有谁准备响应上帝的呼召,而放弃原有的计划和亲密的朋友呢?有谁愿意接受新的责任,进入未传过福音的地区……?凡愿意这样作的人,就是有了亚伯拉罕的信心,也必与他同享“极重无比永远的荣耀。”“现在的苦楚,若比起将来要显于我们的荣耀,就不足介意了”(林后4:17;罗8:18)。(PP125,126){CC 44.6}[6]
奋斗与勇敢-第39章
Many are still tested as was Abraham.... They may be required to abandon a career that promises wealth and honor, to leave congenial and profitable associations, and separate from kindred, to enter upon what appears to be only a path of self-denial, hardship, and sacrifice. God has a work for them to do.... {CC 44.5}[6]
