“摸你们的,就是摸祂眼中的瞳人”(亚2:8)。{LHU374.1}

He that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye. Zechariah 2:8. {LHU 374.1}
高举主耶稣-第361章
当基督教世界各国的执政者发布命令制裁守诫命的人,声明政府不再保护他们,并任凭那些希望看他们消灭的人肆意蹂躏的时候,上帝的子民便要从各城镇各乡村中,成群结队地迁居到极荒凉的偏僻之处。许多人要在山寨中找到避难所。象昔日皮德蒙特山谷中的瓦典西信徒一样。他们要以地上的高处作他们的居所,并且为这“磐石的坚垒”感谢上帝(见赛33:16)。但从各国和各阶层中必有许多人,不分富贵贫贱,不论肤色黑白,都要落到极不公平而残酷的束缚之下。上帝所喜爱的子民必要经过困苦的日子,被铁链捆锁,囚在牢狱之内,被判死刑,有些人要被放在黑暗而污浊的地窖里,显然被丢在那里饿死。那时没有人倾听他们的哀苦呻吟,也没有人伸手援助他们。{LHU374.2}
高举主耶稣-第361章
As the decree issued by the various rulers of Christendom against commandment keepers shall withdraw the protection of government and abandon them to those who desire their destruction, the people of God will flee from the cities and villages and associate together in companies, dwelling in the most desolate and solitary places. Many will find refuge in the strongholds of the mountains. Like the Christians of the Piedmont valleys, they will make the high places of the earth their sanctuaries and will thank God for “the munitions of rocks” (Isaiah 33:16). But many of all nations and of all classes, high and low, rich and poor, black and white, will be cast into the most unjust and cruel bondage. The beloved of God pass weary days, bound in chains, shut in by prison bars, sentenced to be slain, some apparently left to die of starvation in dark and loathsome dungeons. No human ear is open to hear their moans; no human hand is ready to lend them help. {LHU 374.2}
高举主耶稣-第361章
在这考验的时期,耶和华是否要忘记祂的百姓呢?当刑罚临到洪水世代的时候,上帝曾忘记了忠心的挪亚吗?当天上降火焚烧所多玛平原诸城的时候,祂曾忘记罗得吗?当约瑟被困在埃及拜偶像的人中时,主曾忘记他吗?当耶洗别发誓要使以利亚与巴力诸先知同遭杀戮时,主曾忘记以利亚吗?主曾忘记那在黑暗凄凉的泥坑中的耶利米吗?祂曾忘记那在烈火窑中的三个志士吗?祂曾忘记那在狮子坑中的但以理吗?……{LHU374.3}
高举主耶稣-第361章
Will the Lord forget His people in this trying hour? Did He forget faithful Noah when judgments were visited upon the antediluvian world? Did He forget Lot when the fire came down from heaven to consume the cities of the plain? Did He forget Joseph surrounded by idolaters in Egypt? Did He forget Elijah when the oath of Jezebel threatened him with the fate of the prophets of Baal? Did He forget Jeremiah in the dark and dismal pit of his prison house? Did He forget the three worthies in the fiery furnace? or Daniel in the den of lions? ... {LHU 374.3}
高举主耶稣-第361章
仇敌虽然把他们投在监牢里,但监牢的墙却不能阻隔他们与基督之间的交通。那知道他们每一弱点,熟悉他们每一试炼的主,是超乎一切地上权威之上的。祂要差遣天使到这些凄凉的牢狱中,将天上的平安与光辉带给他们。这些监牢将要变成王宫,因为大有信心的人住在其中。阴沉的墙垣将被天上的光辉所照耀,如同保罗和西拉在腓立比的监牢中半夜唱诗祈祷的时候一样。(GC626,627).{LHU374.4}
高举主耶稣-第361章
Though enemies may thrust them into prison, yet dungeon walls cannot cut off the communication between their souls and Christ. One who sees their every weakness, who is acquainted with every trial, is above all earthly powers; and angels will come to them in lonely cells, bringing light and peace from heaven. The prison will be as a palace; for the rich in faith dwell there, and the gloomy walls will be lighted up with heavenly light as when Paul and Silas prayed and sang praises at midnight in the Philippian dungeon (The Great Controversy, 626, 627). {LHU 374.4}
高举主耶稣-第361章
上帝的子民怀着热切的渴望等候他们的王降临的征兆。……在山顶的云彩上已经发出微光。不久主的荣耀就要显现。……诸天放射着永恒白昼的曙光,又有声音象天使和谐的歌声,传到义人耳中说:“务要坚持着你们的忠贞,援助即将来到。”全能的得胜者基督举起永不衰残的荣耀冠冕,要赐给祂那些疲乏的战士。祂从稍微开启的天门里发出声音说:“……你们不是与未经败仗的敌人争战。我已经为你们打过仗了,所以你们要奉我的名得胜而有余。”(GC632,633).{LHU374.5}
高举主耶稣-第361章
With earnest longing, God’s people await the tokens of their coming King.... Light is gleaming upon the clouds above the mountaintops. Soon there will be a revealing of His glory.... The heavens glow with the dawning of eternal day, and like the melody of angel songs the words fall upon the ear; “Stand fast to your allegiance. Help is coming.” Christ, the almighty Victor, holds out to His weary soldiers a crown of immortal glory; and His voice comes from the gates ajar: “... You are not warring against untried enemies. I have fought the battle in your behalf, and in My name you are more than conquerors” (The Great Controversy, 632, 633). {LHU 374.5}
