Choose Him as Our Trusted Friend, March 25
高举主耶稣-第85章
“以后我不再称你们为仆人……我乃称你们为朋友。因为从我父所听见的,已经都告诉你们了”(约15:15)。{LHU98.1}
高举主耶稣-第85章
Henceforth I call you not servants; ... but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.John 15:15.{LHU 98.1}[1]
高举主耶稣-第85章
目前邪恶当道,我们周围末世的危机越来越严重了。许多人的爱心由于恶行遍地而逐渐冷淡。如果大家都来到耶稣面前,抱着坚定的信心相信祂,就不会这样了。祂心里柔和谦卑,会带来平安与安息,赐给每一个人道德的力量。{LHU98.2}
高举主耶稣-第85章
Wickedness prevails at the present day. The perils of the last days thicken around us, and because iniquity abounds the love of many waxes cold. This need not be if all would come to Jesus, and in confiding faith trust in Him. His meekness and lowliness, cherished in the heart, will bring peace and rest, and give moral power to every soul.{LHU 98.2}[2]
高举主耶稣-第85章
人们常常把时间短暂作为寻求公义和把基督当作我们好朋友的动机。我们不应该以此为主要的动机,因为这是自私的。难道需要把上帝日子可怕的景象放在我们眼前,才能迫使我们因害怕而采取正确的行动吗?不应该这样。耶稣有吸引力。祂充满爱心、仁慈和怜悯。祂愿意做我们的朋友,与我们一起走过人生艰难的路程。祂对我们说,我是主,是你们的上帝,与我同行吧,我必使你们的道路充满光明。天上的至尊耶稣提出,让负有重担、软弱和忧虑的人到祂面前,获得祂的友谊。祂还要把他们当作自己的儿女,最终要让他们继承价值远胜地上王国的财产,就是世上最尊贵的君王也从未戴过的荣耀冠冕。{LHU98.3}
高举主耶稣-第85章
The shortness of time is frequently urged as an incentive for seeking righteousness and making Christ our friend. This should not be the great motive with us; for it savors of selfishness. Is it necessary that the terrors of the day of God should be held before us, that we may be compelled to right action through fear? It ought not to be so. Jesus is attractive. He is full of love, mercy, and compassion. He proposes to be our friend, to walk with us through all the rough pathways of life. He says to us, I am the Lord thy God; walk with Me, and I will fill thy path with light. Jesus, the Majesty of heaven, proposes to elevate to companionship with Himself those who come to Him with their burdens, their weaknesses, and their cares. He will count them as His children, and finally give them an inheritance of more value than the empires of kings, a crown of glory richer than has ever decked the brow of the most exalted earthly monarch.{LHU 98.3}[3]
高举主耶稣-第85章
爱耶稣我们的救赎主,原是我们当尽的本分。祂有权命令我们爱祂,然而祂却邀请我们把心献给祂。祂召唤我们与祂一同行走在谦逊而忠心顺从的道路上。祂给我们的邀请乃是呼召我们享受一种纯净、圣洁而且幸福的人生——平安与安息的人生,自由与仁爱的人生——并且承受将来不朽生命的丰盛基业。我们要选择什么?──是在基督里得享自由,还是服事撒但而甘受奴役和暴虐呢?……假如我们选择在无尽的永生岁月中与基督一起生活,为什么不现在就选择祂,作我们最亲爱、最可信靠的朋友,作我们最好的和最有智慧的顾问呢?{LHU98.4}
高举主耶稣-第85章
It is our duty to love Jesus as our Redeemer. He has a right to command our love, but He invites us to give Him our heart. He calls us to walk with Him in the path of humble, truthful obedience. His invitation to us is a call to a pure, holy, and happy life—a life of peace and rest, of liberty and love—and to a rich inheritance in the future, immortal life. Which will we choose—liberty in Christ, or bondage and tyranny in the service of Satan? ... If we choose to live with Christ through the ceaseless ages of eternity, why not choose Him now as our most loved and trusted friend, our best and wisest counselor.{LHU 98.4}[4]
高举主耶稣-第85章
我们有权利每天与耶稣安静、亲密、愉快地同行。我们不用害怕道路上的奋斗与艰难。我们可以拥有测不透的平安,但我们需要与黑暗的权势作斗争,与自私和生来的罪恶进行拼搏。通过坚持不懈的努力所取得日复一日的胜利,为爱我们的耶稣所珍重,因为“祂为我们舍了自己,要赎我们脱离一切罪恶,又洁净我们,特作自己的子民,热心为善”(多2:14)。……{LHU98.5}
高举主耶稣-第85章
It is our privilege to have daily a calm, close, happy walk with Jesus. We need not be alarmed if the path lies through conflicts and sufferings. We may have the peace which passeth understanding; but it will cost us battles with the powers of darkness, struggles severe against selfishness and inbred sin. The victories gained daily through persevering, untiring effort in well-doing will be precious through Christ who has loved us, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto Himself a “peculiar people, zealous of good works.” ...{LHU 98.5}[5]
高举主耶稣-第85章
至高者的儿子在十字架上承受羞辱,使罪人不至于蒙受永远的羞辱和蔑视,而是得到救赎,戴上永恒荣耀的冠冕。(ST.1887.3.17).{LHU98.6}
高举主耶稣-第85章
The Son of the Highest suffered shame on the cross, that sinners might not suffer everlasting shame and contempt, but be ransomed, and crowned with eternal glory (The Signs of the Times, March 17, 1887).{LHU 98.6}[6]
