What Is God’s Purpose for Us?
Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God; him shalt thou serve, and to him shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name.Deuteronomy 10:20.{WGD 25.1}[1]
黎明的灵修-第23章
上帝的旨意是要藉祂的子民表明祂国度的原则。在生活和品格上,他们可以显示这些原则。祂渴望把他们从世界的风俗,习惯,与做法中分别出来。祂努力吸引他们与祂自己亲近,好使他们知道祂的旨意。……上帝用大能的手和伸出来的膀臂,将希伯来民族从为奴之地领了出来。祂为他们施行的拯救是极为奇妙的,惩罚他们的仇敌,就是那些不肯听祂的话的人,使他们全然毁灭。[2]
黎明的灵修-第23章
It is God’s purpose to manifest through His people the principles of His kingdom. That in life and character they may reveal these principles, He desires to separate them from the customs, habits, and practices of the world. He seeks to bring them near to Himself, that He may make known to them His will.... With a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, God brought out the Hebrew host from the land of bondage. Wonderful was the deliverance He wrought for them, punishing their enemies, who refused to listen to His Word, with total destruction.{WGD 25.2}[2]
黎明的灵修-第23章
上帝希望领祂的子民远离世俗,预备他们能领受祂的话。祂把他们从埃及领到西奈山,在那里祂向他们显示出自己的荣耀。此地没有可以引诱他们的感觉或使他们的心转离上帝的事物;当这大群会众仰望那耸立在上的巍巍高山之时,他们就能认识到自己在上帝的眼中是渺小虚无的。在这些若非神旨大能便不能摇撼的岩石之旁,上帝与人们相交通。为要使祂的话能在他们的心中长存清楚明晰的印象起见,祂在雷轰电闪及可怕的威严之中,宣布了祂曾在伊甸园里传授过的律法,也就是祂品格的副本。上帝的指头将这些话写在石版上。这样,无穷上帝的旨意,就显示给一班蒙召要使各国各族各方各民明白其统治天庭及人间之原则的子民了。上帝已呼召祂这一代的子民也作这同样的工作。祂已经向他们启示祂的旨意,并且要求他们顺从。(6T 9、10)[3]
黎明的灵修-第23章
God desired to take His people apart from the world, and prepare them to receive His Word. From Egypt He led them to Mount Sinai, where He revealed to them His glory. Here was nothing to attract their senses or divert their minds from God; and as the vast multitude looked at the lofty mountains towering above them, they could realize their own nothingness in the sight of God. Beside these rocks, immovable except by the power of the divine will, God communicated with men. And that His Word might ever be clear and distinct in their minds, He proclaimed amid thunder and lightning and with terrible majesty the law which He had given in Eden, and which was the transcript of His character. And the words were written on tables of stone by the finger of God. Thus the will of the infinite God was revealed to a people who were called to make known to every nation, kindred, and tongue the principles of His government in heaven and in earth. To the same work He has called His people in this generation. To them He has revealed His will, and of them He requires obedience.—Testimonies for the Church 6:9.{WGD 25.3}[3]
