耶稣超乎万名之名-第71章
“你们要常在我里面,我也常在你们里面。枝子若不常在葡萄树上,自己就不能结果子。你们若不常在我里面,也是这样”(约15:4)。JNN79.1
耶稣超乎万名之名-第71章
“Abide in Me, ann you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.”—John 15:4{JNN 79.1}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第71章
约翰对他夫子的爱不只是人的情谊,而是一位悔改的罪人因感受到蒙基督宝血所救赎而产生的爱。他觉得为主服务效劳和受苦乃是最大的尊荣。他因爱耶稣而爱一切基督所代死的人。他的宗教具有实际的性质。他分析说,爱上帝的心会表现在爱祂的儿女上。他一再说:“亲爱的弟兄啊,上帝既是这样爱我们,我们也当彼此相爱”(约壹4:11)。“我们爱,因为上帝先爱我们。人若说,我爱上帝,却恨他的弟兄,就是说谎话的;不爱他所能看见的弟兄,就不能爱没有看见的上帝”(19,20节)。使徒约翰的生活是与他的教训相符的。那蕴藏在他心中对于基督的爱,使他诚恳而恒切地为同胞,尤其是为基督教会内的弟兄作工。他是一个有能力的传道人,热心而且非常诚恳。他的言辞大有力量,感服人心。JNN79.2
耶稣超乎万名之名-第71章
John’s affection for his Master was noere human friendship, but the love oepentant sinner, who felt that he had been redeemed by the precious blood of Christ. He esteemed it the highest honor to work and suffer in the service of his Lord. His love for Jesus led him to love all for whom Christ died. His religion was oractical character. He reasoned that love to God would be manifested in love to his children. He was heard again and again to say, “Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.” “We love Him because He first loved us. Ian sayove God, and hateth his brother, he iiar; for he that loveth not his brother, whom he hath seen, how can he love God, whom he hath not seen?” The apostle’s life was in harmony with his teachings. The love which glowed in his heart for Christ, led him to put forth the most earnest, untiring labor for his fellow human beings, especially for his brethren in the Christian church. He waowerful preacher, fervent, and deeply in earnest, and his words carried with theeight of conviction.{JNN 79.2}

约翰在品格和生活上所表现信赖的爱心与无私的献身,对于基督教会有极宝贵的教训。有人认为约翰有这样的爱心,并不靠上帝的恩典。其实他天性上有许多严重的缺点。他不但骄傲自大,野心勃勃,而且一受轻视和伤害就生气。JNN79.3
耶稣超乎万名之名-第71章
The confiding love and unselfish devotion manifested in the life and character of John, present lessons of untold value to the Christian church. Some may represent him as possessing this love independent of divine grace; but John had, by nature, serious defects of character; he was proud and ambitious, and quick to resent slight and injury.{JNN 79.3}
耶稣超乎万名之名-第71章
约翰对他夫子感情的深厚和热忱,不是基督爱他的原因,而是基督爱他的结果。约翰希望变成耶稣的样式。在基督之爱改变人心的影响力之下,他变得心里柔和谦卑。自我藏在耶稣里面。他与活葡萄树紧密相连,从而与上帝的性情有份。这是与基督联合的结果,是真正的成圣。JNN79.4
耶稣超乎万名之名-第71章
The depth and fervor of John’s affection for the Master was not the cause of Christ’s love for him, but the effect of that love. John desired to become like Jesus, and under the transforming influence of the love of Christ, he became meek and lowly of heart. Self was hid in Jesus. He was closely united to the Living Vine, and thus becamartaker of the divine nature. Such will ever be the result of communion with Christ. This is true sanctification.{JNN 79.4}

There may be marked defects in the character; evil temper, irritable disposition, envy, and jealousy may bear sway; yet if the person becomerue disciple of Jesus, the power of divine grace will make theew creature.—The Review and Herald, February 15, 1881.{JNN 79.5}
