Church to Be Added to Church, October 7
高举主耶稣-第281章
“当趁耶和华可寻找的时候寻找祂,相近的时候求告祂”(赛55:6)。{LHU294.1}
高举主耶稣-第281章
Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near. Isaiah 55:6. {LHU 294.1}
高举主耶稣-第281章
教会的信徒应当在世界道德的黑暗中兴起发光。我们若是与“世界的光“(约9:5)相连,就会把这光反射给别人。我们若已分享救主丰盛的恩典,就会成为周围人的福气。……{LHU294.2}
高举主耶稣-第281章
Church members are to arise and shine amid the moral darkness of the world. If we are connected with the Light of the world, we shall reflect light to others. If we partake of the Saviour’s rich grace, we shall be a blessing to those around us.... {LHU 294.2}
高举主耶稣-第281章
许多自命为基督徒的人因为追求居首而得不到基督的信任。他们如果谦卑下来,愿意接受祂的教导,就会成为一种力量,向世界显示真理对人品格的影响。凡在基督阵营里工作的人,决不会寻求抬高自己,却在传道事工上表现出不间断的活力和持续的进步。若没有新教会的增添,他们是不会满意的。{LHU294.3}
高举主耶稣-第281章
It is because so many of Christ’s professed followers seek to be first that He cannot trust them. Were they humble, willing to be taught by Him, they would be a power in showing to the world the influence of the truth upon human character. Those who work in Christ’s lines, never seeking to exalt self, will reveal constant activity and steady progress in missionary enterprises. They will not be satisfied unless church is added to church. {LHU 294.3}
高举主耶稣-第281章
上帝希望为祂服务的人努力维护那一次交付圣徒的真道。我们正在推进的传道事工,范围比以往任何时候都大。更多的地区有待开发;真理的旗帜要插到新的地方;更多的教会需要建立;要尽到一切可能的努力,以完成基督的使命:“所以你们要去,使万民作我的门徒,奉父子圣灵的名,给他们施洗。凡我所吩咐你们的,都教训他们遵守,我就常与你们同在,直到世界的末了”(太28:19,20)。{LHU294.4}
高举主耶稣-第281章
God expects those in His service to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints. Our aggressive missionary work is to be more abundant than it has been in the past. More territory is to be annexed; the standard of truth is to be planted in new places; churches are to be established; all is to be done that can be done to fulfill the commission, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.” {LHU 294.4}
高举主耶稣-第281章
一个教会的生命,在于其成员对羊圈外面的人所表现的关怀。上帝的教会应当记住,基督为把世界从毁灭中拯救出来而牺牲了自己。祂为我们成了贫穷,叫我们因祂的贫穷,可以得到永远的富足。难道上帝赐予真理知识的人会目光短浅吗?他们应当认识到自己的重大责任,斩断一切自私的思绪,让上帝把祂的圣灵倾降在他们身上!他们要趁着可以找到上帝的时候寻求祂,趁祂可以就近的时候呼求祂!他们没有理由不信和抱怨。他们应当停止挑剔和抱怨,鼓励为所得到的怜悯和福气而感恩的精神!他们应当为感激祂圣言的亮光而真诚地赞美上帝!这亮光照亮他们的道路,被他们接到心与脑中,又反射到黑暗中的人身上。他们就是这样预备好做赞美和荣耀基督的工作。他们的旗帜上写着:“他们是守上帝诫命和耶稣真道的”(启14:12)。(ST.1901.8.21).{LHU294.5}
高举主耶稣-第281章
The life of a church depends on the interest which its members manifest in those outside the fold. Let the church of God remember that Christ gave Himself as a sacrifice to save a world from destruction. For our sake He became poor, that we through His poverty might come into possession of eternal riches. Shall those whom God has blessed with a knowledge of the truth become narrow in their plans? Let them arouse to a sense of their vast obligations, cutting away every thread of selfishness, that the Lord may pour upon them His Holy Spirit. Let them seek the Lord while He may be found, and call upon Him while He is near. They have no reason for being faithless and complaining. Let them cease all fault-finding and murmuring, and encourage a spirit of gratitude for past mercies and blessings. Let them praise the Lord in unfeigned gratitude for the light of His Word, which shines upon their pathway, to be received into heart and mind, and reflected upon those in darkness. Thus they will be prepared to work to the praise and glory of Christ, and to inscribe upon their banners, “Here are they that keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus” (Revelation 14:12) (The Signs of the Times, August 21, 1901). {LHU 294.5}
