MR No. 1416 - The Workings of Satan; Use of Tithe
§3
（1908年12月17日写于加利福尼亚州，疗养院，致“S.N.赫斯格弟兄和姐妹”）
§4
我经常疲倦，但我不时地认识到主的福气大量留在我身上。我想要存谦卑的心与上帝同行。我在赞美主，祂必用祂的灵时刻引导我。{19MR 376.1}[1]
§5
(Written December 17, 1908, from Sanitarium, California, to Brother and Sister [S. N.] Haskell.)
§6
I am often weary, and yet I realize at times the blessing of the Lord resting upon me in large measure. I want to walk humbly with God. I am praying that the Lord will guide me by His Spirit every moment. {19MR 376.1}[1]
§7
主给了我一项特别的工作去作，发出应该临到我们的人的警告之言。撒但的力量正在预备他们诱人的试探，倘或可能，连选民也迷惑了。撒但会藉着那些漠视上帝给教会的警告的人行事。他们会在欺骗性影响的作为之下极其热心，最奇怪的表现将会出现。{19MR 376.2}[2]
§8
The Lord has given me a special work to do in giving words of warning that should come to our people. Satans forces are preparing their seductive temptations to deceive, if possible, the very elect. Satan will work through those who have disregarded the warnings of God to the church. They will be exceedingly zealous under the working of a deceptive influence, and most strange manifestations will appear. {19MR 376.2}[2]
§9
我们的各教会中都需要证据表明基督的温柔。为了聪明地从事所交给我们的严肃工作，我们必须将自我隐藏在耶稣基督里。我们只有一个短时期用来完成必要的工作。让我们为我们前面的斗争认真地作准备吧，因为撒但的众军正在集结，要作最后的大斗争。我蒙指示要对我们所有的人说：要让你们的光在言语和行为上发出来，以便显明你们心中所珍爱的真理。{19MR 376.3}[3]
§10
We need in all our churches the evidences of the meekness of Christ. In order to do intelligently the solemn work committed to us, we must hide self in Jesus Christ. We have a short time in which to accomplish the work that is essential. Let us earnestly prepare for the conflict that is before us, for Satans armies are marshalling for the last great struggle. I am instructed to say to all our people, Let your light so shine in words and deeds, that you will reveal that truth is cherished in the heart. {19MR 376.3}[3]
§11
时候已到，属于主的十分之一和供物应当用来完成一项明确的工作。应当将它们交到主的库中，以一种有秩序的方式来使用，维持福音工人的工作。我们在《玛拉基书》3:10读到：“万军之耶和华说：你们要将当纳的十分之一全然送入仓库，使我家有粮，以此试试我，是否为你们敞开天上的窗户，倾福与你们，甚至无处可容。”{19MR 376.4}[4]
§12
The time has come when the tithes and offerings belonging to the Lord are to be used in accomplishing a decided work. They are to be brought into the treasury to be used in an orderly way to sustain the gospel laborers in their work. In Malachi 3:10 we read, Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in Mine house, and prove Me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. {19MR 376.4}[4]
§13
撒但正在集结他的势力，设法引进异端，混乱那些还没有受训练明白圣灵引导之人的心。一张欺骗的网正为他们预备着，那些已经再三受到警告却没有教育自己去明白那些警告的人，肯定会上当，陷入撒但的网罗。{19MR 377.1}[5]
§14
Satan is rallying his forces and seeking to bring in heresies to confuse the minds of those who have not been trained to understand the leadings of the Holy Spirit. A delusive net is being prepared for them, and those who have been warned again and again, but have not educated themselves to understand the warnings, surely will be taken in Satans snare. {19MR 377.1}[5]
§15
上帝的天使一直在执掌四方的风，叫它们不要吹。约翰写道：“此后，我看见四位天使站在地的四角，执掌地上四方的风，叫风不吹在地上、海上，和树上。我又看见另有一位天使，从日出之地上来，拿着永生上帝的印。他就向那得着权柄能伤害地和海的四位天使大声喊着说：‘地与海并树木，你们不可伤害，等我们印了我们上帝众仆人的额。’我听见以色列人各支派中受印的数目有十四万四千。……此后，我观看，见有许多的人，没有人能数过来，是从各国、各族、各民、各方来的，站在宝座和羔羊面前，身穿白衣，手拿棕树枝，大声喊着说：‘愿救恩归与坐在宝座上我们的上帝，也归与羔羊！’众天使都站在宝座和众长老并四活物的周围，在宝座前，面伏于地，敬拜上帝，说：阿们！颂赞、荣耀、智慧、感谢、尊贵、权柄、大力都归与我们的上帝，直到永永远远。阿们！长老中有一位问我说：‘这些穿白衣的是谁？是从哪里来的？’我对他说：‘我主，你知道。’他向我说：‘这些人是从大患难中出来的，曾用羔羊的血把衣裳洗白净了。所以，他们在上帝宝座前，昼夜在祂殿中事奉祂。坐宝座的要用帐幕覆庇他们。他们不再饥，不再渴；日头和炎热也必不伤害他们。因为宝座中的羔羊必牧养他们，领他们到生命水的泉源；上帝也必擦去他们一切的眼泪’”（启7:1-4,9-17）。{19MR 377.2}[6]
§16
The angels of God have been holding the four winds that they shall not blow. John writes: [Revelation 7:1-4, 9-17, quoted.] {19MR 377.2}[6]
§17
要仔细阅读和研究这一章。奇妙的事即将发生。对每一个将要住在地上的人来说，未来都充满了强烈的兴趣。（《信函》1908年364号）怀爱伦著作托管委员会1988年9月8日全文发表于美国首都华盛顿。{19MR 377.3}[7]

Let this chapter be carefully read and studied. Wonderful things are about to transpire. The future is full of intense interest to every soul who shall live upon the earth.--Letter 364, 1908. Ellen G. White Estate Washington, D. C. Sept. 8, 1988. Entire Letter. {19MR 377.3}[7]
