Planting Seeds of Truth, October 22
§3
“早晨要撒你的种，晚上也不要歇你的手；因为你不知道那一样发旺，或是早撒的，或是晚撒的，或是两样都好”（传11:6）。{OHC 301.1}[1]
§4
In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.?Ecclesiastes 11:6.?{OHC 301.1}[1]
§5
我们自称为上帝儿女的人负有严肃的责任，要寻找拯救失丧的人。……上帝要你与信徒和非信徒交往，帮助大家更充分地认识真理。要与你认为能帮助的人相识。当你和他们交谈时，不要说无聊愚昧的话，而要述说上帝宝贵的事。……上帝的天使必感化人心，只要你凭着基督的精神尽力接近和帮助他们。（MS.1909.81）{OHC 301.2}[2]
§6
As professing children of God, we are under solemn obligation to seek and to save the lost.... God wants you to associate with believers and unbelievers, that you may help all to a fuller knowledge of the truth. Get acquainted with those whom you think you can help; then when you get into conversation with them do not talk of nothingness and folly, but tell of the precious things of God.... Angels of God will make impressions upon the mind, if in the spirit of Christ you will seek to reach and to help souls.46?{OHC 301.2}[2]
§7
无论你到哪里，都要让你的光照出来。要把我们的报刊和小册子递给你所交往的人。当你乘车，访问，与邻舍交谈时，要善用每一个机会说合宜的话。……{OHC 301.3}[3]
§8
Wherever you are, let your light shine forth. Hand out papers and pamphlets to those with whom you associate, when you are riding on the cars, visiting, conversing with your neighbors; and improve every opportunity to speak a word in season....?{OHC 301.3}[3]
§9
我们这班人在与人接触时应培育仁慈和有礼的态度。我们应当……始终以一种从容的态度表现真理。这真理对于接受的人就是永远的生命。所以要研究如何从容有礼地把暂时的话题转到属灵永恒的话题。……当你走在路上，或坐在路旁时，可以在人心中撒下真理的种子。（CH 435）{OHC 301.4}[4]
§10
We should cultivate kindliness and courtesy in our association with those whom we meet. Let us ... strive always to present the truth in an easy way. This truth means life, eternal life to the receiver. Study therefore to pass easily and courteously from subjects of a temporal nature to the spiritual and eternal.... While walking by the way, or seated by the wayside, you may drop into some heart the seed of truth.47?{OHC 301.4}[4]
§11
有一项工作要为我们的主而作。有些人可以藉着我们的影响而被领到基督面前。有谁愿意全心全意地参与这项工作呢？……[5]
§12
There is work to be done for our Master. There are souls who may by our influence be led to Christ. Who is ready to engage in this work with all the heart? ...?{OHC 301.5}[5]
