你必得能力-第50章
“因为你们已经死了,你们的生命与基督一同藏在上帝里面”(西3:3)。[1]
你必得能力-第50章
For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.Colossians 3:3.{YRP 57.1}[1]
你必得能力-第50章
耶稣是完美的模范。我们不要设法取悦自己,随心所欲,而要追求反映祂的形像。祂是仁慈、有礼、慈悲、温柔的。我们在这些方面象祂吗?我们有没有力求使我们的生活散发着好行为的香气呢?我们所需要的是基督的纯朴。我担心在许多情况下一种完全不象那位神圣模范的刚硬无情的精神已经占据了内心。这种已为许多人所怀有甚至视为美德的铁定原则,必须完全除掉,好让我们能彼此相爱,象基督爱了我们一样。{YRP 57.1}[2]
你必得能力-第50章
Jesus is the perfect pattern. Instead of trying to please self and have our own way, let us seek to reflect His image. He was kind and courteous, compassionate and tender. Are we like Him in these respects? Do we seek to make our lives fragrant with good works? What we need is the simplicity of Christ. I fear that in many cases a hard, unfeeling spirit, that is entirely unlike that of the divine Pattern, has taken possession of the heart. This cast-iron principle, which has been cherished by so many, and which has even been thought a virtue, must all be removed, that we may love one another as Christ has loved us.{YRP 57.2}[2]
你必得能力-第50章
我们仅仅自称有信仰是不够的;还需要口头赞同之外的表现。必须在耶稣里的真理原则上有实际的知识和真正的经验。圣灵必须在内心运行,使这些原则受到清明悟性的强烈光照,以便我们晓得他们的能力,并使之成为活生生的现实。心智必须服从那至尊的自由的律法,就是上帝的灵铭刻在人心版上、并使人的悟性清楚了解的律法。驱除罪恶必须是心灵调动运用其最高贵能力的本身行为。一个有限的意志所惟一能享有的自由,在于达到与上帝的旨意相和谐的状态,遵守那些使人与上帝的性情有分的条件,脱离世上从情欲而来的败坏。……{YRP 57.2}[3]
你必得能力-第50章
It is not enough that we merely profess the faith; something more than a nominal assent is wanted. There must be a real knowledge, a genuine experience in the principles of the truth as it is in Jesus. The Holy Spirit must work within, bringing these principles into the strong light of distinct consciousness, that we may know their power and make them a living reality. The mind must yield obedience to the royal law of liberty, the law which the Spirit of God impresses upon the heart, and makes plain to the understanding. The expulsion of sin must be the act of the soul itself, in calling into exercise its noblest powers. The only freedom a finite will can enjoy consists in coming into harmony with the will of God, complying with the conditions that make man a partaker of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust....{YRP 57.3}[3]
你必得能力-第50章
人的品格被罪腐化、变形,非常不象从创造主手中出来的第一个人了。耶稣提出要担当人类的缺陷和罪恶,并把祂自己品格的优美赐给人。祂致力于藉着真理更新心灵。谬论无法做这种再生的工作;所以我们必须有属灵的眼力,好辨明真理与谎言,使我们不至落入仇敌的网罗。(RH.1885.11.24){YRP 57.3}[4]
你必得能力-第50章
The human character is depraved, deformed by sin, and terribly unlike that of the first man as he came from the hands of the Creator. Jesus proposes to take man’s deformity and sin, and to give him, in return, beauty and excellence in his own character. He engages to renovate the soul through the truth. Error cannot do this work of regeneration; therefore we must have spiritual eyesight to discern between truth and falsehood, that we fall not into the snare of the enemy.—The Review and Herald, November 24, 1885.{YRP 57.4}[4]
