The Church Can Hasten Jesus’ Return, August 28
我们回天家-第242章
“这一切既然都要如此销化,你们为人该当怎样圣洁,怎样敬虔,切切仰望上帝的日子来到”(彼后3:11、12)。{HB265.1}[1]
我们回天家-第242章
What manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God?—2 Peter 3:11, 12.{HB 265.1}[1]
我们回天家-第242章
基督已经将一个神圣的使命交付祂的教会。每一个肢体都应当作一道川流,以致上帝可以藉着他们将祂恩典的财宝,就是“基督那测不透的丰富”传给世人。救主所最渴慕的,就是一班能向世人表现祂的灵和祂品德的人。而且世界最大的需要,乃是在人的身上的看到救主之爱的表现。全天庭都等着要看,哪一些信徒是上帝所能用来显明基督教能力的人。{HB265.2}[2]
我们回天家-第242章
Christ has given to the church a sacred charge. Every member should be a channel through which God can communicate to the world the treasures of His grace, the unsearchable riches of Christ. There is nothing that the Saviour desires so much as agents who will represent to the world His Spirit and His character. There is nothing that the world needs so much as the manifestation through humanity of the Saviour’s love. All heaven is waiting for men and women through whom God can reveal the power of Christianity.{HB 265.2}[2]
我们回天家-第242章
教会是上帝所藉以宣传真理的机构,是祂赋予能力去作一番特殊工作的。如果她能效忠上帝并顺从祂一切的命令,上帝恩典的丰美就必显在她里面。只要她忠于职守,并尊荣以色列的上帝,就没有任何权势足以与之抗衡。{HB265.3}[3]
我们回天家-第242章
The church is God’s agency for the proclamation of truth, empowered by Him to do a special work; and if she is loyal to Him, obedient to all His commandments, there will dwell within her the excellency of divine grace. If she will be true to her allegiance, if she will honor the Lord God of Israel, there is no power that can stand against her.{HB 265.3}[3]
我们回天家-第242章
为上帝和祂圣工所发的热心,曾使早期的门徒为福音作出有力的见证。我们岂不该因这同样的热忱而决心去宣讲赎罪之爱的故事和被钉十字架的基督吗?每一个基督徒都有特权,非但仰望,而也要催促救主的复临。{HB265.4}[4]
我们回天家-第242章
Zeal for God and His cause moved the disciples to bear witness to the gospel with mighty power. Should not a like zeal fire our hearts with a determination to tell the story of redeeming love, of Christ and Him crucified? It is the privilege of every Christian, not only to look for, but to hasten the coming of the Saviour.{HB 265.4}[4]
我们回天家-第242章
教会若能披上基督的义袍,而不肯顺从世俗,那么在她面前必要出现光明与荣耀的曙光。上帝对于教会的应许必永远坚立。祂必要使她“变为永远的荣华,成为累代的喜乐。”真理必要胜利。而那些藐视并拒绝它的人,终必被撇在后面。虽然真理有时似乎是被拦阻了,但实际上它的进展却从来没有迟缓片刻。每当上帝的信息遭到反对时,祂就必加以新的力量,使它发挥更大的影响。它既赋有上帝的能力,就必冲破最坚固的屏障,并战胜一切的阻碍。{HB265.5}[5]
我们回天家-第242章
If the church will put on the robe of Christ’s righteousness, withdrawing from all allegiance with the world, there is before her the dawn of a bright and glorious day. God’s promise to her will stand fast forever. He will make her an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations. Truth, passing by those who despise and reject it, will triumph. Although at times apparently retarded, its progress has never been checked. When the message of God meets with opposition, He gives it additional force, that it may exert greater influence. Endowed with divine energy, it will cut its way through the strongest barriers and triumph over every obstacle.{HB 265.5}[5]
我们回天家-第242章
那在上帝儿子辛劳牺牲的一生中支持祂的是什么呢?乃是祂看到了自己“劳苦的功效,便心满意足。”祂眺望到永恒的将来,看到那些因祂的屈辱而得蒙赦免并承受永生之人的幸福。祂的耳朵似乎已经听到赎民胜利的呐喊,听到他们欢唱摩西和羔羊的凯歌。(《使徒言行录》600,601页){HB265.6}[6]
我们回天家-第242章
What sustained the Son of God during His life of toil and sacrifice? He saw the results of the travail of His soul and was satisfied. Looking into eternity, He beheld the happiness of those who through His humiliation had received pardon and everlasting life. His ear caught the shout of the redeemed. He heard the ransomed ones singing the song of Moses and the Lamb.—The Acts of the Apostles, 600, 601.{HB 265.6}[6]
