使我认识祂-第294章
“主又说:‘那些日子以后,我与以色列家所立的约乃是这样:我要将我的律法放在他们里面,写在他们心上;我要作他们的上帝,他们要作我的子民’”(来8:10)。{TMK299.1}[1]

For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people.Hebrews 8:10.{TMK 299.1}[1]

新约的福气完全是以施恩宽恕不义和罪孽为基础的。主耶稣说,我要恩待一切弃恶从善而归向我的人。“我要宽恕他们的不义,不再纪念他们的罪愆”(来8:12)。凡虚心认罪的人,必得到怜悯、恩典和保证。{TMK299.2}[2]
使我认识祂-第294章
The blessings of the new covenant are grounded purely on mercy in forgiving unrighteousness and sins. The Lord specifies, I will do thus and thus unto all who turn to Me, forsaking the evil and choosing the good. “I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.” (Hebrews 8:12). All who humble their hearts, confessing their sins, will find mercy and grace and assurance.{TMK 299.2}[2]

向罪人施恩的上帝难道不秉公行义吗?难道祂不会尊重祂的圣律法,而纵容干犯它的罪吗?上帝是诚实而永不改变的。得救的条件始终是一样的。顺从上帝律法的人就有永生。表现在思想、言语和行为上的完全顺从,现在和律法师问基督的时候是一样需要的:“我该作什么才可以承受永生”。耶稣对他说:“律法上写的是什么?你念的是怎样呢?……你这样行就必得永生”(路10:25-28)。{TMK299.3}[3]
使我认识祂-第294章
Has God, in showing mercy to the sinner, ceased to be just? Has He dishonored His holy law, and will He henceforth pass over the violation of it? God is true. He changes not. The conditions of salvation are ever the same. Life, eternal life, is for all who will obey God’s law. Perfect obedience, revealed in thought, word, and deed, is as essential now as when the lawyer asked Christ, “What shall I do to inherit eternal life?” Jesus said to him, “What is written in the law? how readest thou? ... this do, and thou shalt live” (Luke 10:25-28).{TMK 299.3}[3]
使我认识祂-第294章
在新约下得永生的条件是与在旧约下一样的。条件永远都是基于完全的顺从。在旧约下,许多放肆妄为的罪,律法并没有规定救赎的办法。而在更美的新约中,基督已经为违背律法的人成全了律法,只要他们因信接受祂为个人的救主。……所有信靠基督除罪的功劳而来到祂面前的人,都能得到怜悯和赦免。在那更美的约之下,我们的罪是靠基督的血洁净的。……罪人连一次罪行也无法赎免。能力在基督白白的恩赐中,这个应许惟有那些认识到自己的罪,放弃自己的罪,将自己无助的心灵交托赦罪的救主基督的人才体会得到。祂必将祂全备的律法放在他们心里。这律法“是圣洁、公义、良善的”(罗7:12),是上帝自己本性的律法。(《信函》1904年第276号){TMK299.4}[4]
使我认识祂-第294章
Under the new covenant the conditions by which eternal life may be gained are the same as under the old—perfect obedience. Under the old covenant there were many offences of a daring, presumptuous character for which there was no atonement specified by law. In the new and better covenant Christ has fulfilled the law for the transgressors of law if they receive Him by faith as a personal Saviour.... Mercy and forgiveness are the reward of all who come to Christ trusting in His merits to take away their sins. In the better covenant we are cleansed from sin by the blood of Christ.... The sinner is helpless to atone for one sin. The power is in Christ’s free gift, a promise appreciated by those only who are sensible of their sins and who forsake their sins and cast their helpless souls upon Christ, the sin-pardoning Saviour. He will put into their hearts His perfect law, which is “holy, and just, and good” (Romans 7:12), the law of God’s own nature.24{TMK 299.4}[4]
