上帝的子民也不免遭受苦难;但他们虽然常遭逼迫,多经忧患,忍受穷乏,缺乏饮食,却必不至灭亡。……{Mar 277.1}
主必快来-第270章
The people of God will not be free from suffering; but while persecuted and distressed, while they endure privation and suffer for want of food they will not be left to perish.... {Mar 277.2}
主必快来-第270章
照人的眼光看来,上帝的子民不久必要用自己的血来印证他们的见证,如同先前的殉道者一样。他们自己也开始疑虑,耶和华已把他们交在仇敌手中了。那真是一个令人极其惊惶苦恼的时候。他们昼夜呼求上帝施行拯救。……{Mar 277.2}
主必快来-第270章
Yet to human sight it will appear that the people of God must soon seal their testimony with their blood as did the martyrs before them. They themselves begin to fear that the Lord has left them to fall by the hand of their enemies. It is a time of fearful agony. Day and night they cry unto God for deliverance.... {Mar 277.3}
主必快来-第270章
上帝的眼睛看到万世万代,早已注意到自己的子民在地上掌权者攻击他们时所必有的遭遇。他们像被掳的囚犯一样,将要陷于被饿死或受残暴的恐怖之中。但那位在以色列面前分开红海的圣者将要彰显祂的大能,使他们从苦境转回。“万军之耶和华说,在我所定的日子,他们必属我,特特归我,我必怜恤他们,如同人怜恤服事自己的儿子”(玛3:17)。基督的忠心见证人若在此时舍身流血,那就不能象从前殉道者的血一样作为福音的种子,为上帝生长庄稼。他们的忠诚再也不能作为一种见证,使别人信服真理,因为那些顽梗刚愎的心已经多次击退慈爱的浪涛,直到这浪涛不再回来了。倘若义人这时被他们的仇敌掳去,那就要成为黑暗之君的胜利了。诗人说:“我遭遇患难,祂必暗暗的保守我;在祂亭子里,把我藏在祂帐幕的隐密处”(诗27:5)。基督已经说过:“我的百姓啊,你们要来进入内室,关上门,隐藏片时,等到忿怒过去。因为耶和华从祂的居所出来,要刑罚地上居民的罪孽”(赛26:20-21)。凡忍耐等候主复临,并有名字录在生命册上的人所蒙的拯救是光荣的。(GC 629-634){Mar 277.3}
主必快来-第270章
The eye of God, looking down the ages, was fixed upon the crisis which His people are to meet, when earthly powers shall be arrayed against them. Like the captive exile, they will be in fear of death by starvation or by violence. But the Holy One who divided the Red Sea before Israel, will manifest His mighty power and turn their captivity. “They shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.” Malachi 3:17. If the blood of Christ’s faithful witnesses were shed at this time, it would not, like the blood of the martyrs, be as seed sown to yield a harvest for God. Their fidelity would not be a testimony to convince others of the truth; for the obdurate heart has beaten back the waves of mercy until they return no more. If the righteous were now left to fall a prey to their enemies, it would be a triumph for the prince of darkness. Says the psalmist: “In the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me.” Psalm 27:5. Christ has spoken: “Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. For, behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity.” Isaiah 26:20, 21. Glorious will be the deliverance of those who have patiently waited for His coming and whose names are written in the book of life.77 {Mar 277.4}
