§5
“律法是我们训蒙的师傅，引我们到基督那里，使我们因信称义”（加3:24）。在这节经文中，圣灵藉使徒所说的主要是道德律法。律法向我们指出什么是罪，使我们感觉需要基督。于是，我们就藉着向上帝悔改并信靠我们主耶稣基督，投奔祂求赦罪和平安。{1MR 130.2}[2]
§6
The law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith (Galatians 3:24). In this Scripture, the Holy Spirit through the apostle is speaking especially of the moral law. The law reveals sin to us, and cause us to feel our need of Christ, and to flee unto Him for pardon and peace by exercising repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.{1MR 130.2}[2]
§7
在明尼阿波利斯反对主藉着瓦格纳弟兄和琼斯弟兄所传达的信息，其主要原因是不愿意放弃先入之见，接受这个真理。撒但藉着掀起这种反对的精神，在很大程度上成功地阻止了我们信徒获得上帝所渴望赐给他们的圣灵特别的能力。他们本可象使徒在五旬节后传扬真理那样，获得将福音传遍世界的效能，但仇敌却拦阻了他们。本应以其荣耀普照全地的亮光受到了抵制，我们自己弟兄的行动，在很大程度上妨碍了真光传播到世界。{1MR 130.3}[3]
§8
An unwillingness to yield up preconceived opinions, and to accept this truth, lay at the foundation of a large share of the opposition manifested at Minneapolis against the Lords message through Brethren Waggoner and Jones. By exciting that opposition, Satan succeeded in shutting away from our people, in a great measure, the special power of the Holy Spirit that God longed to impart to them. The enemy prevented them from obtaining that efficiency which might have been theirs in carrying the truth to the world, as the apostles proclaimed it after the day of Pentecost. The light that is to lighten the whole earth with its glory was resisted, and by the action of our own brethren has been in a great degree kept away from the world.{1MR 130.3}[3]
§9
我们要从禁律的角度，更要从慈怜的角度来看十诫的律法。顺从它的戒律乃是幸福的可靠保障。我们如果在基督里接受律法，它就会在我们里面生出纯洁的品格，给我们带来永久的快乐。对于顺从的人来说，律法是一道保护的围墙，从中我们可以看到上帝的良善，祂向人类显示不变的公义原则，力求保护他们脱离犯罪的恶果。 {1MR 130.4}[4]
§10
The law of ten commandments is not to be looked upon as much from the prohibitory side, as from the mercy side. Its prohibitions are the sure guarantee of happiness in obedience. As received in Christ, it works in us the purity of character that will bring joy to us through eternal ages. To the obedient it is a wall of protection. We behold in it the goodness of God,who by revealing to men the immutable principles of righteousness, seeks to shield them from the evils that result from transgression.{1MR 130.4}[4]
§11
我们不要以为上帝总是在等待着要惩罚罪人。罪人受惩罚是咎由自取。他们的所作所为，造成了带来必然后果的一系列环境。每一桩犯罪的行为都会对罪人产生反作用，使他的品格发生一定的变化，从而更加容易再去犯罪。因着选择罪，人类与上帝隔开了，切断了赐福的渠道，结果就是毁灭和死亡。{1MR 131.1}[5]
§12
We are not to regard God as waiting to punish the sinner for his sin. The sinner brings the punishment upon himself. His own actions start a train of circumstances that bring the sure result. Every act of transgression reacts upon the sinner, works in him a change of character, and makes it more easy for him to transgress again. By choosing to sin, men separate themselves from God, cut themselves off from the channel of blessing, and the sure result is ruin and death.{1MR 131.1}[5]
§13
律法是上帝思想的表达。我们在基督里接受了律法，律法就成了我们的思想。它会使我们摆脱本性欲望与倾向的权势，摆脱犯罪的引诱。“爱祢律法的人有大平安，什么都不能使他们绊脚”（诗119:165）。{1MR 131.2}[6]
§14
The law is an expression of Gods idea. When we receive it in Christ, it becomes our idea. It lifts us above the power of natural desires and tendencies, above temptations that lead to sin. Great peace have they which love Thy law: and nothing shall offend them (Psalm 119:165), cause them to stumble.{1MR 131.2}[6]
§15
不义中没有平安，恶人乃是在与上帝作战。但那在基督里接受律法之义的人却是与上天和谐的。“慈爱和诚实彼此相遇；公义和平安彼此相亲”（诗85:10）。（《信函》1896年第96号，第1,2页，致乌利亚史密斯长老，1896年6月6日）紧接着上面这段话是怀夫人的秘书写给乌利亚史密斯长老的标注：“附页介绍了昨晚明示给怀姐妹的几点，她希望寄给你。”{1MR 131.3}[7]
§16
There is no peace in unrighteousness; the wicked are at war with God. But he who receives the righteousness of the law in Christ, is in harmony with heaven. Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other (Psalm 85:10). Letter 96, 1896, pp. 1, 2. (To Elder Uriah Smith, June 6, 1896.) [Accompanying the above statement is a notation made by Mrs. Whites secretary addressed to Elder Uriah Smith: The enclosed pages present a few points which were opened to Sister White last night, and she wished sent to you.]{1MR 131.3}[7]
§17
有人问我《加拉太书》中的律法。那把我们带到基督面前的“训蒙的师傅”究竟是什么律法？我回答说，既是指仪文律法，也是指十诫道德律法。{1MR 131.4}[8]
§18
I am asked concerning the law in Galatians. What law is the schoolmaster to bring us to Christ? I answer: Both the ceremonial and the moral code of ten commandments.{1MR 131.4}[8]
§19
基督是整个犹太教制度的基础。亚伯的死是因为该隐不肯在顺从的学校里接受上帝的计划，靠着耶稣基督的宝血而得救。祭牲所代表的乃是基督。该隐所拒绝的血，象征着基督将要为世人流的血。整套仪式是上帝设计的。基督成了整个制度的基础。这就是它作为训蒙的师傅工作的开端，让罪人想到基督是整个犹太教制度的基础。{1MR 131.5}[9]
§20
Christ was the foundation of the whole Jewish economy. The death of Abel was in consequence of Cain refusing to accept Gods plan in the school of obedience to be saved by the blood of Jesus Christ typified by thesacrificial offerings pointing to Christ. Cain refused the shedding of blood which symbolized the blood of Christ to be shed for the world. This whole ceremony was prepared by God, and Christ became the foundation of the whole system. This is the beginning of its work as the schoolmaster to bring sinful human agents to a consideration of Christ the Foundation of the whole Jewish economy.{1MR 131.5}[9]
§21
凡参与圣所崇祀的人不断地受到教育，认识到基督帮助人类的工作。上帝设计这套崇祀是为了使每一个人心中产生对于上帝的律法，就是祂国度之律法的爱。献祭要成为上帝藉着基督所表现之爱的实例——受苦垂死的祭牲，把人所犯的罪承担在自己身上，无罪的因为我们而成为罪。{1MR 132.1}[10]
§22
All who did service in connection with the sanctuary were being educated constantly in regard to the intervention of Christ in behalf of the human race. This service was designed to create in every heart a love for the law of God, which is the law of His kingdom. The sacrificial offering was to be an object lesson of the love of God revealed in Christ--in the suffering, dying victim, who took upon Himself the sin of which man was guilty, the innocent being made sin for us.{1MR 132.1}[10]
§23
我们在思考这个伟大的救恩主题时，便看见了基督的工作。所应许的圣灵恩赐，以及这种牺牲和救助的性质，应当使我们的心把上帝的律法看为高尚神圣。每一个人都应遵从律法的要求。在吃禁果这个小小的举动上违背了律法，就给人类和世界带来不顺从上帝圣律法的后果。基督救助工作的性质应始终使人担心在最小的举动上违犯上帝的要求。{1MR 132.2}[11]
§24
In the contemplation of this great theme of salvation, we see Christs work. Not only the promised gift of the Spirit, but also the nature and character of this sacrifice and intervention, is a subject which should create in our hearts elevated, sacred, high ideas of the law of God, which holds its claims upon every human agency. The violation of that law in the small act of eating of the forbidden fruit, brought upon man and upon the earth the consequence of disobedience to the holy law of God. The nature of the intervention should ever make man afraid to do the smallest action in disobedience to Gods requirement.{1MR 132.2}[11]
§25
我们应当清楚地明白什么是罪，避免稍微越界，从顺从步入不顺从的境地。{1MR 132.3}[12]
§26
There should be a clear understanding of that which constitutes sin, and we should avoid the least approach to step over the boundaries from obedience to disobedience.{1MR 132.3}[12]
§27
上帝希望祂所造的每一个人，都明白祂无穷的儿子舍命拯救世人的伟大工作。“你看父赐给我们是何等的慈爱，使我们得称为上帝的儿女，……世人所以不认识我们，是因未曾认识祂”（约壹3:1）。{1MR 132.4}[13]
§28
God would have every member of His creation understand the great work of the infinite Son of God in giving His life for the salvation of the world.Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew Him not (1 John 3:1).{1MR 132.4}[13]
§29
当罪人从基督身上看到无穷无私的仁爱时，他就会产生感恩的心，乐意追随基督所指引的路。（《文稿》1900年第87号，第1,2页，《加拉太书的律法》，大约1900年）[14]
§30
When he sees in Christ the embodiment of infinite and disinterested love and benevolence, there is awakened in the heart of the sinner a thankful disposition to follow where Christ is drawing. Ms 87, 1900, pp. 1, 2. (The Law in Galatians, circa 1900.)[14]
