Creation Reflects God’s Character
Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.Ecclesiastes 7:29.{WGD 342.1}[1]
黎明的灵修-第340章
人类在外貌和品格上都赋有上帝的形象。惟有基督是天父“本体的真像”(来1:3)。但人类是“照着上帝的形象”造的。他的性情是与上帝的旨意符合的。他的心智能领会天上的事。他的爱情是纯洁的;他的爱好和感情都受理智的支配。他赋有上帝的形象并完全顺从祂的旨意,所以他是圣洁而幸福的。[2]
黎明的灵修-第340章
Man was to bear God’s image, both in outward resemblance and in character. Christ alone is “the express image” of the Father; but man was formed in the likeness of God. His nature was in harmony with the will of God. His mind was capable of comprehending divine things. His affections were pure; his appetites and passions were under the control of reason. He was holy and happy in bearing the image of God, and in perfect obedience to His will.{WGD 342.2}[2]
黎明的灵修-第340章
当人类从创造主手中出来时,他的体格是魁梧并完全匀称的。他的容貌带着健康的红润之色,并焕发生命和快乐的光辉。亚当的身材比现在的人远为高大。夏娃身体虽然较为矮小,但她的仪态是端丽华贵的。这一对无罪的夫妇没有穿戴人手制成的衣冠,却披着一层荣光,像天使一样。只要他们顺从上帝,这光明的外袍就必一直环绕他们。……上帝亲自为亚当造了一个伴侣。祂“为他造一配偶帮助他,”──与他相配的一个助手──是专为作他伴侣而造,并能彼此同情相爱,合而为一的。夏娃是从亚当的一根肋骨所造成的,表明她不应作他的首脑去管辖他,也不应作他的奴隶被他践踏,乃是要以平等的地位站在亚当身边,为他所亲爱所保护。(PP 45、46)[3]
黎明的灵修-第340章
As man came forth from the hand of his Creator, he was of lofty stature and perfect symmetry. His countenance bore the ruddy tint of health, and glowed with the light of life and joy. Adam’s height was much greater than that of men who now inhabit the earth. Eve was somewhat less in stature; yet her form was noble, and full of beauty. The sinless pair wore no artificial garments; they were clothed with a covering of light and glory, such as the angels wear. So long as they lived in obedience to God, this robe of light continued to enshroud them.... God Himself gave Adam a companion.... Eve was created from a rib taken from the side of Adam, signifying that she was not to control him as the head, nor to be trampled under his feet as an inferior, but to stand by his side as an equal, to be loved and protected by him.—Patriarchs and Prophets, 45, 46.{WGD 342.3}[3]
黎明的灵修-第340章
只要人类一直顺从上帝的律法,他们得知识,享福乐,和爱神爱人的能力就必增进不已。他们必不断地获得新的知识宝藏,发现新的幸福泉源,并对上帝无可限量永不改变的爱有更清楚的认识。(PP 51)[4]
黎明的灵修-第340章
So long as they remained loyal to the divine law, their capacity to know, to enjoy, and to love, would continually increase. They would be constantly gaining new treasures of knowledge, discovering fresh springs of happiness, and obtaining clearer and yet clearer conceptions of the immeasurable, unfailing love of God.—Patriarchs and Prophets, 51.{WGD 342.4}[4]
