nd to the spirits of just men made perfect。 These all died in faith; not having received the promises; but having seen them afar off; and were persuaded of them; and embraced them; and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth。 — Our conversation (Gr。 citizenship) is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour; the Lord Jesus Christ: who shall change our vile body; that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body; according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself。 — The Father; 。。。 hath delivered us from the power of darkness; and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son。 As strangers and pilgrims; abstain from fleshly lusts; which war against the soul。 EPH。 2:19。 Heb。 12:22;23。 Heb。 11:13。 …Phi。 3:20;21。 …Col。 1:12;13。 I Pet。 2。11。

耶和华啊,你的心思极其深(诗92:5)。 我们为你们不住的祷告祈求,愿你们在一切属灵的智慧悟性上,满心知道 神的旨意(西1:9)。叫你们的爱心有根有基,能以和众圣徒一同明白基督的爱是何等长阔高深;并知道这爱是过于人所能测度的,便叫 神一切所充满的,充满了你们(弗3:17…19)。 深哉! 神丰富的智慧和知识。他的判断何其难测!他的踪迹何其难寻(罗11:33)!耶和华说:我的意念非同你们的意念,我的道路非同你们的道路。天怎样高过地,照样,我的道路高过你们的道路,我的意念高过你们的意念(赛55:8,9)。耶和华我的 神啊,你所行的奇事,并你向我们所怀的意念甚多,不能向你陈明;若要陈明,其事不可胜数(诗40:5)。 神啊,你的意念向我何等宝贵,其数何等众多(诗139:17)!
Thy thoughts are very deep。
We 。。。 do not cease to pray for you; and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding。 — That ye; being rooted and grounded in love; may be able to prehend with all saints what is the breadth; and length; and depth; and height; and to know the love of Christ; which passeth knowledge; that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God。 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments; and his ways past finding out! — My thoughts are not your thoughts; neither are your ways my ways; saith the LORD。 For as the heavens are higher than the earth; so are my ways higher than your ways; and my thoughts than your thoughts。 — Many; O LORD my God; are thy wonderful works which thou hast done; and thy thoughts which are to us…ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them; they are more than can be numbered。 PSA。 92:5。 Col。 1:9。 …Eph。 3:17…19。 Rom。 11:33。 …Isa。 55:8;9。 …Psa。 40:5。

人种的是什么,收的也是什么(加6:7)。 耕罪孽、种毒害的人都照样收割(伯4:8)。 他们所种的是风,所收的是暴风(何8:7)。 顺着情欲撒种的,必从情欲收败坏;顺着圣灵撒种的,必从圣灵收永生(加6:8)。 撒义种的,得实在的果效(箴11:18)。我们行善,不可丧志,若不灰心,到了时候就要收成。所以,有了机会,就当向众人行善,向信徒一家的人更当这样(加6:9,10)。 有施散的,却更增添,有吝惜过度的,反致穷乏。好施舍的,必得丰裕;滋润人的,必得滋润(箴11:24,25)。 少种的少收,多种的多收(林后9:6)。 Whatsoever a man soweth; that shall he also reap。 They that plow iniquity; and sow wickedness; reap the same。 — They have sown the wind; and they shall reap the whirlwind。 — He that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption。 To him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward。 — He that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting。 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap; if we faint not。 As we have therefore opportunity; let us do good unto all men; especially unto them who are of the household of faith。
There is that scattereth; and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet; but it tendeth to poverty。 — The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself。 — He which
soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully。 GAL。 6:7。 Job 4:8。 …Hos。 8:7。 …Gal。 6:8。 Prov。 11:18。 …Gal。 6:8…10。 Prov。 11:24。 …Prov。 11:25。 …II Cor。 9:6。

耶和华啊,求你在发怒的时候以怜悯为念(哈3:2)。 我愿落在耶和华手里,因为他有丰盛的怜悯(撒下24:14)。我与你同在,要拯救你,要从宽惩治你,万不能不罚你。这是耶和华说的(耶30:11)。他不长久责备,也不永远怀怒。他没有按我们的罪过待我们,也没有照我们的罪孽报应我们。他知道我们的本体,思念我们不过是尘土(诗103:9,10,14)。我必怜恤他们,如同人怜恤、服侍自己的儿子(玛3:17)。 神是信实的,必不叫你们受试探过于所能受的。在受试探的时候,总要给你们开一条出路,叫你们能忍受得住(林前10:13)。撒但想要得着你们,好筛你们像筛麦子一样。但我已经为你祈求,叫你不至于失了信心(路22:31,32)。当强暴人催逼人的时候,如同暴风直吹墙壁,你就作贫穷人的保障,作困乏人急难中的保障,作躲暴风之处,作避炎热的荫凉(赛25:4)。 He stayeth his rough wind in the day of the east wind。 Let us fall now into the hand of the LORD; for his mercies are great。 — I am with thee; saith the LORD; to save thee: 。。。 I will correct thee in measure; and will not leave thee altogether unpunished。 — He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever。 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities。 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust。 — I will spare them; as a man spareth his own son that serveth him。 God is faithful; who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape; that ye may be able to bear it。 — Satan hath desired to have you; that he may sift you as wheat: but I have prayed for thee; that thy faith fail not。 Thou hast been a strength to the poor; a strength to the needy in his distress; a refuge from the storm; a shadow from the heat; when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall。 ISA。 27:8。 II Sam。 24:14。 …Jer。 30:11。 …Psa。 103:9;10;14。 …Mal。 3:17。 I Cor。 10:13。 …Luke 22:31;32。 Isa。 25:4。

我先不信那些话,及至我来亲眼见了,才知道人所告诉我的还不到一半(王上10:7)。
当审判的时候,南方的女王要起来定这世代的罪,因为她从地极而来,要听所罗门的智慧话。看哪,在这里有一人比所罗门更大(太12:42)。我们也见过他的荣光,正是父独生子的荣光(约1:14)。我说的话,讲的道,乃是用圣灵和大能的明证,叫你们的信不在乎人的智慧,只在乎 神的大能。如经上所记: 神为爱他的人所预备的,是眼睛未曾看见,耳朵未曾听见,人心也未曾想到的。只有 神藉着圣灵向我们显明了,因为圣灵参透万事,就是 神深奥的事也参透了(林前2:4,5,9,10)。 你的眼必见王的荣美(赛33:17)。我们必得见他的真体(约壹3:2)。我必在肉体之外得见 神(伯19:26)。我就心满意足了(诗17:15)。 I believed not the words; until I came; and mine eyes had seen it; and; behold; the half was not told me。 The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation; and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and; behold; a greater than Solomon is here。 — We beheld his glory; the glory as of the only begotten of the Father; full of grace and truth。 My speech and my preaching was 。。。 in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men; but in the power of God。 But as it is written; Eye hath not seen; nor ear heard; neither have entered into the heart of man; the things which God hath prepared for them that love him。 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things; yea; the deep things of God。 Thine eyes shall see the King in his beauty。 — We shall see him as he is。 — In my flesh I shall see God。 — I shall be satisfied。 I KGS。 10:7。 Matt。 12:42。 …John 1:14。 I Cor。 2:4;5;9;10。 Isa。 33:17。 …I John 3:2。 …Job 19:26。 …Psa。 17:15。

凭着他们的果子,就可以认出他们来(太7:20)。 小子们哪,不要被人诱惑。行义的才是义人,正如主是义的一样(约壹3:7)。泉源从一个眼里能发出甜苦两样的水吗?我的弟兄们,无花果树能生橄榄吗?葡萄树能结无花果吗?咸水里也不能发出甜水来。你们中间谁是有智慧、有见识的呢?他就当在智慧的温柔上显出他的善行来(雅3:11…13)。你们在外邦人中,应当品行端正,叫那些毁谤你们是作恶的,因看见你们的好行为,便在鉴察的日子归荣耀给 神(彼前2:12)。 你们或以为树好,果子也好;树坏,果子也坏。因为看果子就可以知道树。善人从他心里所存的善就发出善来;恶人从他心里所存的恶就发出恶来(太12:33,35)。 我为我葡萄园所作之外,还有什么可作的呢(赛5:4)? By their fruits ye shall know them。
Little children; let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous; even as he is righteous。 — Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter? Can the fig tree; my brethren; bear olive berries? either a vine; figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water
and fresh。 Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom。 — Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that; whereas they speak against you as evildoers; they may by your good works; which they shall behold; glorify God in the day of visitation。 Either make the tree good; and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt; and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit。 — A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth f
