The True, the Frank, the Honest, September 30
高举主耶稣-第274章
“你务要至死忠心,我就赐给你那生命的冠冕”(启2:10)。{LHU287.1}
高举主耶稣-第274章
Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life. Revelation 2:10. {LHU 287.1}
高举主耶稣-第274章
上帝无所不见的慧眼洞察众人的过失,也明白各人主要的癖性;然而祂却容忍我们的错误,可怜我们的软弱。祂吩咐其子民也当存同样的温慈忍耐的精神。真实的基督徒,必不以揭露他人的过失瑕疵为乐。他们必转离那可憎或丑恶的事,只留心那可羡慕可喜爱的事。在基督徒看来,每一吹毛求疵之举,及每一责难攻击的话,都是令人痛心的。……{LHU287.2}
高举主耶稣-第274章
God’s all-seeing eye notes the defects of all and the ruling passion of each, yet He bears with our mistakes and pities our weakness. He bids His people cherish the same spirit of tenderness and forbearance. True Christians will not exult in exposing the faults and deficiencies of others. They will ... fix the mind upon that which is attractive and lovely. To the Christian every act of faultfinding, every word of censure or condemnation, is painful.... {LHU 287.2}
高举主耶稣-第274章
如果一切自称为基督徒的人,都愿意运用辨识之力去省察,看自己有什么恶行需要矫正,而不谈论别人的错处,那么今日教会的情形就必更加健全了。有些人在无须付代价之时,是很诚实;及至要以权谋为利己之时,就把诚实忘记了。在一个人的心思中,诚实与权谋是冰炭不相容的。到了时候,若非弃绝权谋,而以真理和诚实为主宰;就必存容权谋,而将诚实忘记了。二者是迥不相侔,决无共通之点的。一个是巴力的先知,另一个却是上帝的真先知。当主选用宝石之时,必乐于以真实、坦白、诚实为上选。天使正在为这等人制造冠冕,从这些宝星灿烂的冠冕上,要辉煌地反射出从上帝宝座所发的光芒。……{LHU287.3}
高举主耶稣-第274章
Would all professed Christians use their investigative powers to see what evils needed to be corrected in themselves, instead of talking of others’ wrongs, there would be a more healthy condition in the church today. Some will be honest when it costs nothing; but when policy will pay best, honesty is forgotten. Honesty and policy will not work together in the same mind. In time, either policy will be expelled, and truth and honesty reign supreme, or, if policy is cherished, honesty will be forgotten. They are never in agreement; they have nothing in common. One is the prophet of Baal, the other is the true prophet of God. When the Lord makes up His jewels, the true, the frank, the honest, will be looked upon with pleasure. Angels are employed in making crowns for such ones, and upon these star-gemmed crowns will be reflected, with splendor, the light which radiates from the throne of God.... {LHU 287.3}
高举主耶稣-第274章
主正在试炼及测验祂的百姓。你尽可随心所欲,对自己的品格瑕疵下无情的批评;但对于别人,却应存仁爱、慈怜,及礼貌。应当每天自问说:我的内心是否纯正,抑或是心术虚伪?应当祈求主救你脱离这一切的迷惑。这是与永恒福利攸关的。当此多人纷纷争名夺利之日,我亲爱的弟兄们,你们是否切心寻求上帝之爱的保证,并喊叫说:谁能指示我,使我所蒙的恩召和拣选坚定不移呢?{LHU287.4}
高举主耶稣-第274章
The Lord is testing and proving His people. You may be just as severe and critical with your own defective character as you please; but be kind, pitiful, and courteous toward others. Inquire every day: Am I sound to the core, or am I false-hearted? Entreat the Lord to save you from all deception on this point. Eternal interests are involved. While so many are panting after honor and greedy of gain, do you, my beloved brethren, be eagerly seeking the assurance of the love of God and crying: Who will show me how to make my calling and election sure? {LHU 287.4}
高举主耶稣-第274章
撒但留意研究人生来所倾向的罪,然后下手诱惑并使人陷入罗网。我们是处于试探的重重包围之中,但我们若是英勇为主作战,就必获得胜利。人人都处在危险之中。若果你们行事为人谦卑而且时常祈祷,就必度过这试炼的历程,比精金甚至俄斐的纯金更宝贵。反之,如果你们粗心大意,不作祈祷,就要变成鸣的锣和响的钹一般了。{LHU287.5}
高举主耶稣-第274章
Satan carefully studies the constitutional sins of men, and then he begins his work of alluring and ensnaring them. We are in the thickest of temptations, but there is victory for us if we fight manfully the battles of the Lord. All are in danger. But if you walk humbly and prayerfully you will come forth from the proving process more precious than fine gold, even than the golden wedge of Ophir. If careless and prayerless, you will be as sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal. {LHU 287.5}
高举主耶稣-第274章
有些人几乎已在怀疑论的迷宫中迷失了。我愿对这等人说:提高你们的心思,超越于那迷津之上,专注于上帝。信心与圣洁使你们与永生之主联系得越近,你们也就越清楚明白祂对待你们是何等地公正合理了。应当把生命,就是那永恒的生命,作为你们追求的目标。(5T.95-98).{LHU287.6}
高举主耶稣-第274章
Some have become almost lost in the mazes of skepticism. To such I would say: Lift your mind out of that channel. Fasten it upon God. The more closely faith and holiness bind you to the Eternal One, the clearer and brighter will the justice of His dealings appear to you. Make life, eternal life, the object of your pursuit (Testimonies for the Church 5:95-98). {LHU 287.6}
