高举主耶稣-第178章
“我去是与你们有益的。我若不去,保惠师就不到你们这里来,我若去,就差祂来。祂既来了,就要叫世人为罪、为义、为审判,自己责备自己”(约16:7,8)。{LHU191.1}
高举主耶稣-第178章
It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment.John 16:7, 8.{LHU 191.1}[1]

大教师基督可以选用的题目是无比丰富的。可是祂讲论得最多的,乃是圣灵的恩赐。(1SM156).{LHU191.2}
高举主耶稣-第178章
Christ, the Great Teacher, had an infinite variety of subjects from which to choose, but the one upon which He dwelt most largely was the endowment of the Holy Spirit (Selected Messages 1:156).{LHU 191.2}[2]
高举主耶稣-第178章
耶稣向祂门徒描述圣灵的职务时,想用那鼓舞祂自己心灵的喜乐和希望来鼓舞他们。祂因为已经为祂的教会预备充分的帮助而心中大为欢乐。基督为高举自己的子民,祂所能向父祈求的一切福份中最大的恩赐乃是圣灵。上帝赐下圣灵来,作为使人重生的能力。若没有圣灵,则基督的牺牲便要归于徒然。历代以来,罪恶的势力日益膨胀,世人服在撒但束缚之下的情形实是令人惊异。人惟有倚靠上帝本性第三位的大能大力,才能抵挡罪恶并得胜罪恶。圣灵下降,必带着无限的力量和充足的神能。有了圣灵,世界的救赎主所作成的大工才能生效。由于圣灵,人的心才能变为纯洁。藉着圣灵,信徒才能与上帝的性情有分。基督赐下圣灵作为一种神圣的能力,来制胜人类一切的遗传和环境所造成的一切恶习,并把祂自己的品格印刻在祂的教会身上。{LHU191.3}
高举主耶稣-第178章
In describing to His disciples the office work of the Holy Spirit, Jesus sought to inspire them with the joy and hope that inspired His own heart. He rejoiced because of the abundant help He had provided for His church. The Holy Spirit was the highest of all gifts that He could solicit from His Father for the exaltation of His people. The Spirit was to be given as a regenerating agent, and without this the sacrifice of Christ would have been of no avail. The power of evil had been strengthening for centuries, and the submission of men to this satanic captivity was amazing. Sin could be resisted and overcome only through the mighty agency of the Third Person of the Godhead, who would come with no modified energy, but in the fullness of divine power. It is the Spirit that makes effectual what has been wrought out by the world’s Redeemer. It is by the Spirit that the heart is made pure. Through the Spirit the believer becomes a partaker of the divine nature. Christ has given His Spirit as a divine power to overcome all hereditary and cultivated tendencies to evil, and to impress His own character upon His church.{LHU 191.3}[3]
高举主耶稣-第178章
耶稣论到圣灵说:“祂要荣耀我。”救主来彰显天父的爱而荣耀天父,照样,圣灵向世人显明基督的恩典而荣耀基督。上帝的形像必重现在人类身上。上帝的荣耀和基督的荣耀,是与祂子民品格的完全相关联的。{LHU191.4}
高举主耶稣-第178章
Of the Spirit Jesus said, “He shall glorify Me.” The Saviour came to glorify the Father by the demonstration of His love; so the Spirit was to glorify Christ by revealing His grace to the world. The very image of God is to be reproduced in humanity. The honor of God, the honor of Christ, is involved in the perfection of the character of His people.{LHU 191.4}[4]
高举主耶稣-第178章
“祂(真理的圣灵)既来了,就要叫世人为罪,为义,为审判,自己责备自己。”传道的工作若是没有圣灵不断的同在和帮助,就不能生效。惟有祂有资格教导神圣的真理。惟有圣灵和真理一同进入人心,才能唤醒良心并改变人的生活。一个人尽可以讲解圣经的字句,并熟悉其中的许多命令和应许,但若没有圣灵以真理感化人心,就没有人能“掉在磐石上,而且跌碎”(路20:18)。人无论受多么高深的教育,有多大的才能,若没有圣灵的合作,就不能成为传播真光的媒介。……人若凭着信心领受这所应许的福,这福就必带来一连串的其他恩惠。上帝的能力是照着基督丰盛的恩典赐给人的,而且基督必随时照着各人的容量而赐给各人。(DA.671,672).{LHU191.5}
高举主耶稣-第178章
“When He [the Spirit of truth] is come, He will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment.” The preaching of the Word will be of no avail without the continual presence and aid of the Holy Spirit. This is the only effectual teacher of divine truth. Only when the truth is accompanied to the heart by the Spirit will it quicken the conscience or transform the life. One might be able to present the letter of the Word of God, he might be familiar with all its commands and promises; but unless the Holy Spirit sets home the truth, no souls will fall on the Rock and be broken. No amount of education, no advantages, however great, can make one a channel of light without the cooperation of the Spirit of God.... This promised blessing, claimed by faith, brings all other blessings in its train. It is given according to the riches of the grace of Christ, and He is ready to supply every soul according to the capacity to receive (The Desire of Ages, 671, 672).{LHU 191.5}[5]
