Christ Could Have Come Before This, December 1
我们回天家-第337章
“主啊,祢复兴以色列国,就在这时候吗?”(徒1:6){HB366.1}[1]
我们回天家-第337章
Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?—Acts 1:6.{HB 366.1}[1]
我们回天家-第337章
如果那些在一八四四年运动中协力同工的人都接受了第三位天使的信息,并用圣灵的能力去传扬,那么,上帝就必藉着他们的努力施行大事,全世界就要被大光所照耀,地上的居民早就听到警告,末日的工作早已完成,基督也就早已复临救赎祂的子民了。{HB366.2}[2]
我们回天家-第337章
If all who had labored unitedly in the work in 1844, had received the third angel’s message and proclaimed it in the power of the Holy Spirit, the Lord would have wrought mightily with their efforts. A flood of light would have been shed upon the world. Years ago the inhabitants of the earth would have been warned, the closing work completed, and Christ would have come for the redemption of His people.{HB 366.2}[2]
我们回天家-第337章
以色列人流浪在旷野四十年之久,原不是上帝的旨意。祂切望要引导他们直入迦南,在那里建立他们为一个圣洁而幸福的国度.但“他们不能进入……,是因为不信的缘故”(来3:19).他们因为退后和背道,便死在旷野.上帝就兴起另一班人进入应许之地。同样,基督的复临耽延了这么长久,以致祂的子民留在罪恶忧患的世界这么多年,也不是上帝的旨意,而是他们因自己的不信而与上帝隔绝了。当他们不肯作上帝所交给他们的工作时,就有别人兴起去传扬这信息。耶稣怜悯世人,所以迟迟没有降临,使罪人有机会可以听见警告,并在上帝的忿怒发出之前在祂里面找到避难所。{HB366.3}[3]
我们回天家-第337章
It was not the will of God that Israel should wander forty years in the wilderness; He desired to lead them directly to the land of Canaan and establish them there, a holy, happy people. But “they could not enter in because of unbelief.” (Hebrews 3:19.) Because of their backsliding and apostasy they perished in the desert, and others were raised up to enter the Promised Land. In like manner, it was not the will of God that the coming of Christ should be so long delayed and His people should remain so many years in this world of sin and sorrow. But unbelief separated them from God. As they refused to do the work which He had appointed them, others were raised up to proclaim the message. In mercy to the world, Jesus delays His coming, that sinners may have an opportunity to hear the warning and find in Him a shelter before the wrath of God shall be poured out.{HB 366.3}[3]
我们回天家-第337章
现今正和先前的时代一样,传扬一种指责当代罪恶与过错的真理,必要惹起人的反对。“凡作恶的便恨光,并不来就光,恐怕他的行为受责备”(约3:20)。当人们看出他们不能用圣经来维持自己的主张时,许多人便要不择手段地坚持这主张,并存恶毒的心去诬蔑那些为不受人欢迎之真理辩护的人的品格和动机。这种办法是每一个世代的人所用过的。以利亚曾被斥为使以色列遭灾的人;耶利米被控为卖国贼;保罗则被诬蔑为污秽圣殿的。从那时直到如今,凡是效忠真理的人,都被斥为犯上作乱,宣传异端,或造成分裂的人。{HB366.4}[4]
我们回天家-第337章
Now as in former ages, the presentation of a truth that reproves the sins and errors of the times will excite opposition. “Everyone that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.” (John 3:20.) As people see that they cannot maintain their position by the Scriptures, many determine to maintain it at all hazards, and with a malicious spirit they assail the character and motives of those who stand in defense of unpopular truth. It is the same policy which has been pursued in all ages. Elijah was declared to be a troubler in Israel, Jeremiah a traitor, Paul a polluter of the temple. From that day to this, those who would be loyal to truth have been denounced as seditious, heretical, or schismatic.{HB 366.4}[4]

有鉴于此,真理使者的责任是什么呢?……现今上帝是否也有光亮赐给祂在本世代的仆人呢?若然,他们也应当让它照耀全世界。(《善恶的斗争》458,459页){HB366.5}[5]
我们回天家-第337章
In view of this, what is the duty of the messenger of truth? . . . Has God given light to His servants in this generation? Then they should let it shine forth to the world.—The Great Controversy, 458, 459.{HB 366.5}[5]
