健康勉言-第127章
一个蒙拣选照顾病人和助手们属灵利益的人,应当是一个具有健全判断力和坚定原则的人,一个拥有道德影响力,知道如何对付人心的人,这是极其重要的。他应当是一个有智慧有文化的人,有情有义有聪明。开始的时候他可能并不是十分能干的,但他应该藉着认真的思考和才干的运用,使自己有资格做这项重要的工作。在这个岗位上做得可蒙悦纳而又坚贞不屈,需要最大的智慧和温柔,因为必须对付偏见、顽梗和形形色色的错误。{CH289.1}[1]
健康勉言-第127章
It is of great importance that the one who is chosen to care for the spiritual interests of patients and helpers be a man of sound judgment and undeviating principle, a man who will have moral influence, who knows how to deal with minds. He should be a person of wisdom and culture, of affection as well as intelligence. He may not be thoroughly efficient in all respects at first; but he should, by earnest thought and the exercise of his abilities, qualify himself for this important work. The greatest wisdom and gentleness are needed to serve in this position acceptably, yet with unbending integrity, for prejudice, bigotry, and error of every form and description must be met.{CH 289.1}[1]
健康勉言-第127章
这个职位不应由一个易怒好斗的人充任。必须当心,不可使基督的宗教因苛刻或急躁而令人厌恶。基督的仆人应该谋求藉着谦卑温柔和仁爱,正确地表现我们的神圣信仰。他虽然不可隐瞒十字架,但也当讲述救主无比的爱。工人必须充满基督的精神,然后心灵的宝藏才能藉着言语呈现出来,进入听者之心。基督的宗教若在跟从祂之人日常的生活中体现出来,就会发挥比最动人的证道大十倍的感化力。……凡在疗养院工作的人,若是都正确地代表了我们圣洁信仰和健康改良的真理,就会发挥一种塑造病人心智的影响力。将错误的习惯与那些和上帝的真理和谐一致的习惯相对照,具有一种使人知罪的能力。——《教会证言》卷四第546,547页(1878年).{CH289.2}[2]
健康勉言-第127章
This place should not be filled by a man who has an irritable temper, a sharp combativeness. Care must be taken that the religion of Christ be not made repulsive by harshness or impatience. The servant of God should seek, by meekness, gentleness, and love, rightly to represent our holy faith. While the cross must never be concealed, he should present also the Saviour’s matchless love. The worker must be imbued with the spirit of Jesus, and then the treasures of the soul will be presented in words that will find their way to the hearts of those who hear. The religion of Christ, exemplified in the daily life of His followers, will exert a tenfold greater influence than the most eloquent sermons.... If all connected with the sanitarium are correct representatives of the truths of health reform and of our holy faith, they are exerting an influence to mold the minds of their patients. The contrast of erroneous habits with those which are in harmony with the truth of God, has a convicting power.—Testimonies for the Church 4:546, 547 (1878).{CH 289.2}[2]
