Use Responsibly the Gifts of Speech and Influence, March 26
效法主耶稣-第86章
“也要为我们祷告,求上帝给我们开传道的门,能以讲基督的奥秘,(我为此被捆锁)叫我按着所该说的话,将这奥秘发明出来”(西4:3、4)。{BLJ94.1}[1]

Meanwhile praying also for us, that God would open to us a door for the word, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in chains, that I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak.Colossians 4:3, 4, NKJV.{BLJ 94.1}[1]
效法主耶稣-第86章
上帝不是随意赐下才干的。祂洞悉万有,了解每一个人,把工作交托给每一个人。受托才干多的人不可自夸,因为他们所有的东西并不属于他们自己,而是借给他们试用的。所赐的越多,要求的回报就越多。上帝每天在考验人,看他们是否愿意承认是祂赐给他们所有的东西。祂在观察他们是否证明自己配得永恒的财富。他们如何使用自己的宝贵恩赐,决定他们永久的命运。{BLJ94.2}[2]
效法主耶稣-第86章
God has not given talents capriciously. He who knows all things, who is acquainted with each one, has given to every person his or her work. Those to whom He has entrusted much are not to boast, for what they possess is not their own; it is lent them on trial; and the greater the endowment, the greater the returns required. Day by day God is testing men and women, to see whether they will acknowledge Him as the giver of all that they have. He watches to see whether they will prove themselves worthy of eternal riches. The use they make of their precious endowments decides their destiny for eternity.{BLJ 94.2}[2]

在上帝赐给祂儿女的所有恩赐中,没有什么福气比口才更大的了。我们用口恳劝和说服人,用口祷告赞美上帝,用口对他人述说救赎主的慈爱。上帝希望我们奉献这个恩赐为祂服务,只说帮助周围人的话。基督若是在我们心中作王,我们的语言就会纯洁、优美、散发出祂所塑造之品格的芳香。但如果我们受众善之敌所引导,所说的话就会反映他的情绪。要谨慎自己的语言,奉献口才为主服务;因为有朝一日祂会向你索取。{BLJ94.3}[3]
效法主耶稣-第86章
Of all the gifts that God has bestowed upon His children, none is capable of being a greater blessing than the gift of speech. With the tongue we convince and persuade; with it we offer prayer and praise to God; and with it we tell others of the Redeemer’s love. God would have us consecrate this gift to His service, speaking only such words as will help those around us. And if Christ rules in our hearts, our words will reveal the purity, beauty, and fragrance of a character molded and fashioned by Him. But if we are under the guidance of the enemy of all good, our words will echo his sentiments. Watch well your words. Consecrate your gift of speech to the Lord’s service; for He will one day require it at your hands.{BLJ 94.3}[3]

我们每一个人都对所接触的人发挥影响。这种影响来自上帝,我们要对如何发挥负责。上帝希望影响力发挥在正义一方。但我们的影响是纯洁高尚,还是发出毒素,取决于我们每一个人的决定。与上帝的性情有份的人会发挥基督化的影响。圣天使会一路上陪伴他们。所有与他们接触的人都会得到帮助和祝福。但那些不接受基督为他们个人救主的人无法对别人发挥向善的影响。这样的人会丧失一切永生的盼望;他们的榜样还会引导别人走上歧途。要非常注意自己的影响。你们站在主一边,“如此侍奉,乃是理所当然的”(罗12:1)。(ST.1897.1.21){BLJ94.4}[4]
效法主耶稣-第86章
Every one of us exerts an influence on those with whom we come in contact. This influence we have from God, and we are responsible for the way it is used. God designs that it shall tell on the side of right; but it rests with each one of us to decide whether our influence shall be pure and elevating, or whether it shall act as a poisonous malaria. Those who are partakers of the divine nature exert an influence that is Christlike. Holy angels attend them on their way, and all with whom they come in contact are helped and blessed. But those who do not receive Christ as their personal Savior cannot influence others for good.... Such lose all hope of eternal life themselves, and by their example lead others astray. Guard well your influence; it is “your reasonable service” to place it on the Lord’s side.—The Signs of the Times, January 21, 1897.{BLJ 94.4}[4]
