Overcoming Selfishness, August 13
一同在天上-第227章
“就好象我凡事都叫众人喜欢,不求自己的益处,只求众人的益处,叫他们得救”(林前10:33)。{HP232.1}[1]
一同在天上-第227章
Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.1 Corinthians 10:33.{HP 232.1}[1]
一同在天上-第227章
许多人的心中都存有自私的成分,象大麻疯一样缠着他们。他们因长期专顾自己的欲望、娱乐和便利,意识不到别人对他们的要求。他们的思想、计划和努力都是为了自己。他们为自己而活,没有培养无私的善心。这种善心若加以运用,就会得到增进加强,直到他们把为他人的福利而生活看作自己的喜乐。必须发现和克服自私之念,因为这在上帝看来是一种严重的罪。他们需要对人类有更特殊的关怀,如此行就必使自己的心灵与基督更加亲近,蒙受祂圣灵的浇灌,坚固地与主相依,以致任何事物都不能使他们与祂的爱隔绝。{HP232.2}[2]
一同在天上-第227章
There exists in the hearts of many an element of selfishness which clings to them like the leprosy. They have so long consulted their own wishes, their own pleasure and convenience, that they do not feel that others have claims upon them. Their thoughts, plans, and efforts are for themselves. They live for self, and do not cultivate disinterested benevolence, which if exercised, would increase and strengthen until it would be their delight to live for others’ good. This selfishness must be seen and overcome, for it is a grievous sin in the sight of God. They need to exercise a more special interest for humanity; and in thus doing, they would bring their souls into closer connection with Christ, and would be imbued with His Spirit, so that they would cleave to Him with so firm a tenacity that nothing could separate them from His love.21{HP 232.2}[2]

凡将同情之念紧锁在自己心中的人,其经验一点儿也不值得羡慕。最享受人生幸福,感受最真实满足的,乃是领受又施舍的人。为自我而生活的人时时感到缺乏,因为他们总是不满足。若将所有的同情之念紧锁在自私的心中,就没有基督教的精神。我们要将光明和福惠带到他人的生活中。主已拣选我们作为渠道传达祂的福惠。{HP232.3}[3]
一同在天上-第227章
The man whose experience is least to be envied is the one who shuts up his sympathies within his own heart. Those who get the most good out of life, who feel the truest satisfaction, are those who receive to give. Those who live for self are always in want, for they are never satisfied. There is no Christianity in shutting our sympathies up in our own selfish hearts. We are to bring brightness and blessing into the lives of others. The Lord has chosen us as channels through which to communicate His blessings.22{HP 232.3}[3]

时候将到,地要东倒西歪,摇来摇去,好象吊床(赛24:20)。上帝工人的思想,动机和行为,现在虽然看不清楚,但在最后赏罚的大日必要显明。现在遗忘的事情,那时将要作证,或蒙称赏,或被定罪。{HP232.4}[4]
一同在天上-第227章
The time is coming when the earth shall reel to and fro and shall be removed like a cottage. But the thoughts, the purposes, the acts of God’s workers, although now unseen, will appear at the great day of final retribution and reward. Things now forgotten will then appear as witnesses, either to approve or to condemn.{HP 232.4}[4]
一同在天上-第227章
爱心、礼貌、克己牺牲──这一切永远不会消失。当上帝的选民从必朽变为不朽之时,他们仁慈的言行将要显明,存到永远。无私的服务,无论多么微小,都不会落空。借着基督所赐之义的功劳,这种言行的芳香将永垂不朽。{HP232.5}[5]
一同在天上-第227章
Love, courtesy, self-sacrifice—these are never lost. When God’s chosen ones are changed from mortality to immortality, their words and deeds of goodness will be made manifest, and will be preserved through the eternal ages. No act of unselfish service, however small or simple, is ever lost. Through the merits of Christ’s imputed righteousness, the fragrance of such words and deeds is forever preserved.23{HP 232.5}[5]
