“古时耶和华向以色列显现,说:‘我以永远的爱爱你,因此我以慈爱吸引你’”(耶31:3)。{HP10.1}[1]

The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with loving kindness have I drawn thee.Jeremiah 31:3.{HP 10.1}[1]
一同在天上-第5章
不认识上帝的人不可能靠着他们的学问或科学找到上帝。基督并不试图证实那伟大的奥秘,却显示了无可度量的爱。祂不以上帝的权能与伟大作为祂讲道的主旨。祂经常称呼上帝为我们的父。……祂希望我们被罪恶削弱的心智受到鼓励,去领会上帝就是爱。……{HP10.2}[2]
一同在天上-第5章
Those who know not God cannot by their learning or science find out God. Christ does not try to prove the great mystery, but reveals a love that is beyond measurement. He does not make God’s power and greatness the chief theme of His discourses. He speaks of Him oftenest as?our Father.... He desires our minds, weakened by sin, to be encouraged to grasp the idea that God is love....{HP 10.2}[2]

基督用浪子的父亲来代表上帝。这位慈父切望再度见到并接纳那离他而去的儿子。他等待守侯,盼望见到他,希望他回来。每当他看见一个贫穷而衣裳褴褛的陌生人走近,便走出去迎接,盼望这个人碰巧就是他的儿子。他也给他食物吃,给他衣服穿,好像他真是他的儿子一般。不久他得到了报赏,因为他的儿子真的回家来了,以恳请的口吻认罪说:“父亲,我得罪了天,又得罪了你;从今以后,我不配称为你的儿子。”父亲却吩咐仆人说:“把那上好的袍子快拿出来给他穿;把戒指戴在他的指头上,把鞋穿在他脚上;把那肥牛犊牵来宰了,我们可以吃喝快乐”(路15:21-23)。{HP10.3}[3]

The father of the prodigal son is the type that Christ chooses as a representation of God. This father longs to see and receive once more the son who has left him. He waits and watches for him, yearning to see him, hoping that he will come. When he sees a stranger approaching, poor and clothed with rags, he goes out to meet him, if perchance it may be his son. And he feeds and clothes him as if he were indeed his son. By and by he has his reward, for his son comes home, on his lips the beseeching confession, “Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.” And the father says to the servants, “Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet; and bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry” (Luke 15:21-23).{HP 10.3}[3]

比喻中并没有讥讽和指责浪子过去的罪行。浪子感到自己的过去已蒙赦免,不再纪念,永远涂抹了。同样,上帝也对罪人说:“我涂抹了你的过犯,像厚云消散,我涂抹了你的罪恶,如薄云灭没”(赛44:22)。“我要赦免他们的罪孽,不再纪念他们的罪恶”(耶31:34)。……{HP10.4}[4]

There is no taunting, no casting up to the prodigal of his evil course. The son feels that the past is forgiven and forgotten, blotted out forever. And so God says to the sinner, “I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and as a cloud thy sins” (Isaiah 44:22). “I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more” (Jeremiah 31:34)....{HP 10.4}[4]

上天现在等待远离羊圈的浪子,渴望他们归来。许多迷路的人可以藉着上帝儿女爱心的服务领回来。……{HP10.5}[5]

Heaven is waiting and yearning for the return of the prodigals who have wandered far from the fold. Many of those who have strayed away may be brought back by the loving service of God’s children....{HP 10.5}[5]

当思考天父哀怜之心,竟不顾惜祂自己的爱子,将祂白白地为我们众人舍了。……但愿我们更好地理解祂的慈爱!{HP10.6}[6]
一同在天上-第5章
Think of the Father subjecting Himself to sorrow, sparing not His own Son, but freely delivering Him up for us all.... O that we had a better understanding of His love!?6{HP 10.6}[6]
