我们回天家-第273章
“腓力找着拿但业,对他说,摩西在律法上所写的,和众先知所记的那一位,我们遇见了”(约1:45)。{HB297}[1]
我们回天家-第273章
Philip found Nathanael and said to him, “We have found Him of whom Moses in the law, and also the prophets, wrote.”—John 1:45.{HB 297.1}[1]
我们回天家-第273章
基督呼召了约翰、安得烈、西门、腓力和拿但业,就此奠定了基督教会的根基。施洗约翰指引他的两个门徒到基督那里。其中之一安得烈找到他的哥哥,招呼他到救主那里。这时腓力也被召,而他又去寻找拿但业。这些榜样应该教训我们重视个人之工和直接引领亲属、朋友、邻居归主。有些人生平自称认识基督,却从来没有自己出过一点力量,去引导一个人归向救主。他们将一切工作推到传道人身上。传道人可能很有资格从事他的职务,但是他却不能作上帝托给教友们去作的工作。{HB297.1}[2]
我们回天家-第273章
With the calling of John and Andrew and Simon, of Philip and Nathanael, began the foundation of the Christian church. John directed two of his disciples to Christ. Then one of these, Andrew, found his brother, and called him to the Saviour. Philip was then called, and he went in search of Nathanael. These examples should teach us the importance of personal effort, of making direct appeals to our kindred, friends, and neighbors. There are those who for a lifetime have professed to be acquainted with Christ, yet who have never made a personal effort to bring even one soul to the Saviour. They leave all the work for the minister. He may be well qualified for his calling, but he cannot do that which God has left for the members of the church.{HB 297.2}[2]
我们回天家-第273章
许多人需要基督徒出于爱心的服务。许多人已经堕落到败亡的地步。如果他们的邻舍,即使是普通的人,为他们尽一点个人的力量,或许他们就可以得救。许多人等待着有人向他们亲自谈话。在我们家庭中,邻里间,以及我们所居住的城里,到处都有我们应为基督所作的布道之工。如果我们真是基督徒,则这种工作就应该是我们乐意去作的。人一悔改归主,在他心中就必立时生出一种愿望,要使别人也认识他所找到的最好的朋友耶稣。那救他使他成圣的真理,是不能禁闭在他心中的。{HB297.2}[3]
我们回天家-第273章
There are many who need the ministration of loving Christian hearts. Many have gone down to ruin who might have been saved if their neighbors, common men and women, had put forth personal effort for them. Many are waiting to be personally addressed. In the very family, the neighborhood, the town, where we live, there is work for us to do as missionaries for Christ. If we are Christians, this work will be our delight. No sooner are we converted than there is born within us a desire to make known to others what a precious friend we have found in Jesus. The saving and sanctifying truth cannot be shut up in our hearts.{HB 297.3}[3]
我们回天家-第273章
凡献身与上帝的人,必要成为传光的通道。上帝使他们作自己的代表,将祂丰富的恩典传达给别人。祂的应许是:“我必使他们与我山的四围成为福源,我也必叫时雨落下,必有福如甘霖而降”(结34:26)。{HB297.3}[4]
我们回天家-第273章
All who are consecrated to God will be channels of light. God makes them His agents to communicate to others the riches of His grace. His promise is, “I will make them and the places round about My hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing.” (Ezekiel 34:26.){HB 297.4}[4]
我们回天家-第273章
腓力对拿但业说:“你来看。”他并没有要拿但业去接受别人的见证,只是叫他亲自来见基督。现在耶稣已经升天了。祂的门徒就是祂在人间的代表,而引人归向祂的一个最有效的方法,乃是在日常生活上将祂的品格表现出来。我们在别人身上的影响,不全在于我们讲得多么好听,乃是在于我们的为人。对于我们的理论,世人或许要反对争辩,我们的劝告,他们或许会拒绝,但是一种无私之爱的生活,却是他们所不能反驳的论据。言行一致,并以基督的柔和为特征的生活,乃是一种足以影响世界的能力。(《历代的愿望》141,142页){HB297.4}[5]
我们回天家-第273章
Philip said to Nathanael, “Come and see.” He did not ask him to accept another’s testimony, but to behold Christ for himself. Now that Jesus has ascended to heaven, His disciples are His representatives among humanity, and one of the most effective ways of winning souls to Him is in exemplifying His character in our daily life. Our influence upon others depends not so much upon what we say as upon what we are. People may combat and defy our logic, they may resist our appeals; but a life of disinterested love is an argument they cannot gainsay. A consistent life, characterized by the meekness of Christ, is a power in the world.—The Desire of Ages, 141, 142.{HB 297.5}[5]
