了。上面有这印记说:主认识谁是他的人。又说:凡称呼主名的人总要离开不义。在大户人家,不但有金器银器,也有木器瓦器,有作为贵重的,有作为卑贱的。人若自洁,脱离卑贱的事,就必作贵重的器皿,成为圣洁,合乎主用,预备行各样的善事(提后2:19…21)。 他必坐下如炼净银子的,必洁净利未人,熬炼他们像金银一样,他们就凭公义献供物给耶和华(玛3:3)。我要熬炼他们,如熬炼银子;他们必求告我的名,我必应允他们。我要说:这是我的子民。他们也要说:耶和华是我们的 神(亚13:9)。 He knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me; I shall e forth as gold。 He knoweth our frame。 — He doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men。 The foundation of God standeth sure; having this seal; The Lord knoweth them that are his。 And; Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity。 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver; but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour; and some to dishonour。 If a man therefore purge himself from these; he shall be a vessel unto honour; sanctified; and meet for the master's use; and prepared unto every good work。
He shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi; and purge them as gold and silver; that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness。 — I 。。。 will refine them as silver is refined; 。。。 they shall call on my name; and I will hear them: I will say; It is my people: and they shall say; the LORD is my God。 JOB 23:10。 Psa。 103:14。 …Lam。 3:33。 II Tim。 2:19…21。 Mal。 3:3。 …Zech。 13:9。

耶和华啊,求你将你的道指示我,将你的路教训我(诗25:4)。 摩西对耶和华说:我如今若在你眼前蒙恩,求你将你的道指示我,使我可以认识你……。耶和华说:我必亲自和你同去,使你得安息(出33:12…14)。 他使摩西知道他的法则,叫以色列人晓得他的作为(诗103:7)。 他必按公平引领谦卑人,将他的道教训他们。谁敬畏耶和华,耶和华必指示他当选择的道路(诗25:9,12)。你要专心仰赖耶和华,不可倚靠自己的聪明,在你一切所行的事上,都要认定他,他必指引你的路(箴3:5,6)。你必将生命的道路指示我。在你面前有满足的喜乐,在你右手中有永远的福乐(诗16:11)。我要教导你,指示你当行的路;我要定睛在你身上劝戒你(诗32:8)。义人的路好像黎明的光,越照越明,直到日午(箴4:18)。 Shew me thy ways; O Lord; teach me thy paths。 Moses said unto the LORD; I pray thee; if I have found grace in thy sight; shew me now thy way; that I may know thee。 And he said; My presence shall go with thee; and I will give thee rest。 — He made known his ways unto Moses; his acts unto the children of Israel。 The meek will he guide in judgment; and the meek will he teach his way。 What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall teach in the way that he shall choose。 — Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding。 In all thy ways acknowledge him; and he shall direct thy paths。 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore。 — I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye。 — The path of the just is as the shining light; that shineth more and more unto the perfect day。 PSA。 25:4。 Exo。 33:12…14。 …Psa。 103:7。 Psa。 25:9;12。 …Prov。 3:5;6。 Psa。 16:11。 …Psa。 32:8。 …Prov。 4:18。

圣灵所结的果子,就是节制(加5:22,23)。 凡较力争胜的,诸事都有节制,他们不过是要得能坏的冠冕;我们却是要得不能坏的冠冕。所以,我奔跑,不像无定向的;我斗拳,不像打空气的。我是攻克己身,叫身服我,恐怕我传福音给别人,自己反被弃绝了(林前9:25…27)。
不要醉酒,酒能使人放荡;乃要被圣灵充满(弗5:18)。 若有人要跟从我,就当舍己,背起他的十字架,来跟从我(太16:24)。 我们不要睡觉,像别人一样,总要儆醒谨守。因为睡了的人是在夜间睡,醉了的人是在夜间醉。但我们既然属乎白昼,就应当谨守(帖前5:6…8)。要除去不敬虔的心和世俗的情欲,在今世自守、公义、敬虔度日,等候所盼望的福,并等候至大的 神和我们救主耶稣基督的荣耀显现(多2:12,13)。 The fruit of the Spirit is temperance。 Every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things。 Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible。 I therefore so run; not as uncertainly; so fight I; not as one that beateth the air: but I keep under my body; and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means; when I have preached to others; I myself should be a castaway。 Be not drunk with wine; wherein is excess: but be filled with the Spirit。 If any man will e after me let him deny himself; and take up his cross; and follow me。 Let us not sleep; as do others: but let us watch and be sober。 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night。 But let us; who are of the day; be sober。 — Denying ungodliness and worldly lusts; we should live soberly; righteously; and godly; in this present world: looking for that blessed hope; and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ。 GAL。 5:22。 I Cor。 9:25…27。 Eph。 5:18。 Matt。 16:24。 I Thes。 5:6…8。 …Tit。 2:12;13。

凡事长进,连于元首基督(弗4:15)。 先发苗,后长穗,再后穗上结成饱满的子粒(可4:28)。 直等到我们众人在真道上同归于一,认识 神的儿子,得以长大成人,满有基督长成的身量(弗4:13)。 他们用自己度量自己,用自己比较自己,乃是不通达的。但夸口的,当指着主夸口。因为蒙悦纳的,不是自己称许的,乃是主所称许的(林后10:12,17,18)。 那形体却是基督。不可让人因着故意谦虚和敬拜天使,就夺去你们的奖赏。这等人拘泥在所见过的,随着自己的欲心,无故地自高自大,不持定元首。全身既然靠着他,筋节得以相助联络,就因 神大得长进(西2:17…19)。 要在我们主救主耶稣基督的恩典和知识上有长进(彼后3:18)。 Grow up into him in all things; which is the head; even Christ。
First the blade; then the ear; after that the full corn in the ear。 — Till we all e to the unity of the faith; and of the knowledge of the Son of God; unto a perfect man; unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ。 They measuring themselves by themselves; and paring themselves among themselves; are not wise。 But he that glorieth; let him glory in the Lord。 For not he that mendeth himself is approved; but whom the Lord mendeth。 The body is of Christ。 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels; intruding into those things which he hath not s
