第441号 需要组织和团结的精神
§2
MR No. 441 - Need for Organization and Spirit of Unity
§3
我蒙指示：A弟兄在纽约的一些教会做了最黑暗最有害的工作。他播撒了不信的种子，会生长结果。……{7MR113.1}[1]
§4
I was shown that Brother A has done a most dark, mischievous work among some of the churches in New York. He has sown the seeds of unbelief which have sprung up and borne fruit. . . . {7MR 113.1}[1]
§5
我蒙指示看到了B弟兄黑暗致命的影响。一些人依附他。他穿上了非常虔诚的外衣，表现得十分温柔献身，但实质上却是败坏和叛逆的。然而一些人依附他，尽管他的影响每一次都是把他们拖向黑暗。他的心敌挡第三位天使的工作。他的心敌挡异象。他藐视异象。但他有许多同情者。……在纽约有不少人像大坍和亚比兰那样走上叛逆的道路。（《信函》1862年1号1-3页，致J.N.安德鲁斯，1862年11月9日）{7MR113.2}[2]
§6
I was shown the dark and deadly influence of B. Some have hung on to him. He throws around him a very religious garb, appears very mild and devoted, but corruption and rebellion are within and yet some will cling to him, although his influence will draw them in the dark every time. His heart is at war with the work of the third angel. His heart is at war with the visions. He despises them. Yet he has many sympathizers. . . . There are quite a number in New York who have taken a rebellious course like Dathan and Abiram.--Letter 11, 1862, pp. 1-3. (To J. N. Andrews, November 9, 1862.) {7MR 113.2}[2]
§7
教会的局面摆在我面前。我看到许多事情处于纠结混乱的状态中。……{7MR113.3}[3]
§8
The state of the church was presented before me. I saw many things in a tangled, perplexed condition. . . . {7MR 113.3}[3]
§9
P弟兄的家庭缺乏献身的精神。…….{7MR113.4}[4]
§10
Brother Ps family lacks consecration. . . . {7MR 113.4}[4]
§11
我看到E弟兄过度消耗体力，直到筋疲力尽，卧倒在床。但上帝爱他。他如果愿意依靠祂，祂就会让他起来。祂现在不愿意放弃他。……{7MR113.5}[5]
§12
I saw that Brother E has taxed his physical strength until it was exhausted, prostrated; but God loves him, and if he will lean upon Him he will bring him up. He will not forsake him now. . . . {7MR 113.5}[5]
§13
M弟兄的情况摆在我面前。我看到他想要真诚正直。他有一项工作要做。有些人存在着误解M坦率态度的危险。他必须具有乐意承认自己错误的精神，不可为自己强辩，与他的弟兄们作对，而要顺服他们的判断，劝导和勉励。……{7MR113.6}[6]
§14
The case of Brother M was presented before me. I saw he intended to be true and right. He has a work to do. There is danger of some misconstruing Brother Ms frank manner. He must possess a willing spirit to acknowledge his wrongs and must not justify himself and brace himself against his brethren, but yield to their judgment, counsel, and advice. . . . {7MR 113.6}[6]
§15
一些人以猜忌的眼光看待巴特尔克里克的行动。他们担心组织起来就会成为巴比伦。我蒙指示。纽约中区的教会完全是一个混乱的巴比伦。如果没有安排计划和制度让教会行动、实施和执行，那就毫无希望了；他们会四分五裂。……{7MR114.1}[7]
§16
Some have been looking with jealous eye upon the moves made at Battle Creek. They fear they should become Babylon if they organize. I was shown the churches in Central New York have been a perfect Babylon, confusion. And unless there can be a plan or system arranged whereupon the church can act, enforce, and carry out order they have nothing to hope for; they must scatter into fragments. . . . {7MR 114.1}[7]
§17
教师们对于团体的影响并不正确。……这些犹豫的教师滋长了分裂和混乱的因素。……{7MR114.2}[8]
§18
The influence of teachers upon the body has not been right. . . . These uncertain teachers have nourished the elements of disunion and confusion. . . . {7MR 114.2}[8]
§19
一些人没有直接拆毁，而是采用间接的手段。他们冷眼旁观，表露出疑惑、猜疑和恐惧，甚至比疑心的多马还要求更大的证据。他们不愿意也没有出手热心协助工作，运用自己的精力进行建造。他们的影响被记录为阻碍在上帝子民中进步和改革的工作。……{7MR114.3}[9]
§20
Some do not work directly to tear down, but indirectly. They look on with indifference, express doubts, suspicion, fears, and need greater evidence than a doubting Thomas. They will not, or do not, with zeal put their hand to the work and exert their energies to build up. Their influence is recorded as one which retards the work of advance and reform among Gods people. . . . {7MR 114.3}[9]
§21
有人严重地离开了上帝。但这个过程是逐渐的。他们不知道上帝何时离开他们，因为他们与世俗同流，使上天的光亮撤离，把他们留在盲目、悲惨和赤身的状态。（《信函》1861年16号，1-5、7、8页，致罗斯福以及附近的教会，1861年8月3日）1975年6月18日发布。{7MR114.4}[10]
§22
There has not been so glaring a departure from God. It has been gradual, and they knew not the time when God left them, for they were so assimilated to the world that heavens light was withdrawn, and they are left blind, wretched, and naked.--Letter 16, 1861, pp. 1-5, 7, 8. (To the Church in Roosevelt and Vicinity, August 3, 1861.) Released June 18, 1975. {7MR 114.4}[10]
