信息: 65-0829 撒但的伊甸园
Dear Perfect Bride,
亲爱的完美新妇:
But to see the deceitfulness of the enemy, we’ve never had a day like this we’re now living. It’s the most cunning, deceitful day. And when I see that, it brings this, that, the Christian has to be more on his toe today than he ever was in any age.
但是,看看我们看见仇敌的诡诈,我们从未活在像今天这样的一个时代。这是最狡猾、最诡诈的时代。当我看见这一点时,我得到一个结论:今天的基督徒必须比任何一个时代都更加警醒。
Brother Branham spoke these words to the Bride almost 61 years ago to date. How was the deceitfulness of the enemy 61 years ago compared to now? To put it in a different perspective, what was technology of the world 61 years ago compared to what it is today?
距今将近六十一年前,伯兰罕弟兄对新妇说了这些话。六十一年前,仇敌的诡诈与今天相比如何?换一个角度来看,六十一年前世界的科技与今天相比,又是怎样的情形?
1961 was the dawn of the Space Race, computers were massive room-sized mainframes operating on vacuum tubes and punch cards which required specialized scientists to program. Telephones were fastened to walls and relied on hardwired and analog copper line, Transistor mainframes, mechanical typewriters, paper filing systems and early mechanical calculators.
1961 年正值太空竞争的开端。计算机是占满整个房间的大型主机,依靠真空管和穿孔卡运行,并且需要专业的科学家来编写程序。电话固定在墙上,依赖有线连接和模拟铜线通信。那时使用的是晶体管大型主机、机械打字机、纸本档案系统,以及早期的机械计算器。
But today we have the Internet, Artificial Intelligence systems that are capable of creating art, writing, and assisting with tasks in real-time. Personal rockets going to Mars. Pocket-sized smartphones, smart watches, and personal devices powered by Global wireless networks that instantly connect billions of people via voice, text, and video. Robotic assistants.
但今天,我们拥有互联网;拥有能够创作艺术、写作,并实时协助完成各种工作的人工智能系统;拥有飞往火星的私人火箭;拥有口袋大小的智能手机、智能手表,以及借着全球无线网络、能够通过语音、文字和视频瞬间连接数十亿人的个人设备;还有机器人助手。
The cunningness and deceitfulness of the enemy is like never before. The evil seed of Satan is in full maturity and has created a Satan’s Eden. But at the same time, God has a Bride that is in full maturity, His Royal Seed that has made Herself ready by sitting in the presence of His Son, His Word, His Voice.
仇敌的狡猾和诡诈,是前所未有的。撒但的邪恶种子已经完全成熟,并建立了一个撒但的伊甸园。但与此同时,神也有一位已经完全成熟的新妇,就是祂的皇室后裔。借着坐在祂儿子——祂的道、祂的声音——的同在中,她已经预备好了自己。
God knew He had to provide a way to sustain His Bride in this deceitful, evil age. A perfect way that they would never have to wonder, guess, or take any man’s word for the true unadulterated Word. He knew they would need to hear for themselves the Voice of God, because He warned us it would be so close it would deceive the very Elect if possible.
神知道,在这个诡诈邪恶的时代,祂必须为祂的新妇预备一条道路,使她能够站立得住。一条完美的预备道路,使她永远不需要疑惑、猜测,也不需要接受任何人的话来代替那纯净、未经掺杂的道。祂知道,她必须亲耳听见神的声音,因为祂曾警告我们,那将会如此相近,若是可能,连选民也要被迷惑。
Men could be anointed, filled with the Holy Spirit, and be false. He had to provide a way. Thus, He made a PERFECT WAY for His Bride, which would seem impossible when He began to record His Voice in 1947; that at a touch of their finger, the world could hear for themselves every Word He spoke, even in their own language. There would be NO QUESTIONS, NO WONDERING. THEY COULD HEAR THUS SAITH THE LORD FOR THEMSELVES.
人可能受了恩膏,也可能被圣灵充满,却仍然可能是假的。因此,祂必须预备一条道路。于是,祂为祂的新妇预备了一条完美的供应道路。当祂在 1947 年开始录制祂的声音时,这看起来似乎是不可能的;然而今天,只需轻轻一点手指,全世界的人便能够亲自听见祂所说的每一句话,甚至能够用自己的语言来听见。没有疑问,没有猜测。她们能够亲耳听见:主如此说。
He has even made a way that He could unite His Bride around the world to hear His Voice, all at the same time, so they could be in one mind, one accord, hearing Him speak.
祂甚至预备了一条道路,使全世界的新妇能够在同一个时间听见祂的声音,好叫她们能够同心合意,一同听见祂说话。
He had to take His messenger, but He left His Voice, His perfect Word for His Perfect Bride. By hearing and staying with His Voice, they would know they cannot be deceived.
祂必须接走祂的使者,但祂把祂的声音留了下来,把祂完美的道留给祂完美的新妇。借着听祂的声音,并持守祂的声音,她们就知道自己绝不会被迷惑。
And here it is: That’s how God establishes His Church, every Word after Its kind! “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word proceeding out of the mouth of God.”
就是这样!神就是这样建立祂的教会——每一句道都各从其类!“人活着,不是单靠食物,乃是靠神口里所出的一切话。”
We know this is believing every Word the Holy Spirit speaks, but to me, I have the greatest honor that has ever been given to a human. I can hear, with my ears, the literal VOICE SPEAK every Word proceeding from the mouth of God.
我们知道,这就是相信圣灵所说的每一句话;但对我来说,我拥有人类所曾得到的最大尊荣。我能够用自己的耳朵,亲耳听见那真实的声音,把每一句从神口里所出来的话说出来。
There is no other way for me. God has provided many ways to save His children, but for me, God has provided a PERFECT WAY TO PERFECT HIS BRIDE.
对我来说,没有别的道路。神曾预备许多方法来拯救祂的儿女;但对我来说,神已经预备了一条完美的供应道路,来成全祂的新妇。
Today, Satan is misconstruing part of the Scripture that applies to this day. He’ll let you know all Jesus did was perfectly well. He’ll let you know all that Brother Branham did was perfectly well, and he was God’s prophet. But when it comes to playing the very vindicated Voice of God in their church, they’ll say that doesn’t apply to today, it’s the ministry.
今天,撒但正在曲解适用于今日的那一部分经文。他会让你知道,耶稣所做的一切都是完全正确的;他也会让你知道,伯兰罕弟兄所做的一切都是完全正确的,并且他是神的先知。但是,当谈到在他们的教会里播放那已经被印证的神的声音时,他们却会说,那并不适用于今天,现在是事工了。
That’s just all he has to do, see, is to get the people to believe It that way, and that—that’s all. For, “You cannot take one Word away from It, or add one word to It.” But that’s what he does.
你看,他所需要做的,就是使人们照着那样去相信,这就够了。因为:“你不能从这道中删去一个字,也不能给它加上一个字。”然而,这正是他所做的。
What does your spiritual leader promote in your church? What is the most important Voice the Bride must hear today? You can only have 1 Major.
你的属灵领袖在你的教会里所提倡的是什么?今天,新妇必须听见的最重要的声音是什么?你只能有一个主要声音。
A: Voice of the ministry?
A:事工的声音?
B: Voice of God on the tapes?
B:录音带上神的声音?
“Every seed must come forth of its kind.” That’s how God established His Eden.
“每一个种子都必须各从其类。”神就是这样建立祂的伊甸园。
I’m not opposed to the ministry to minster. I know, and believe, God has called them. But to me, the true ministry will tell his congregation the Voice on the tapes is the most important Voice they MUST hear, thus they must play the tapes in their church, for it is the MAJOR VOICE.
我并不是反对事工服事。我知道,也相信,神呼召了他们。但对我来说,真正的事工会告诉他们的会众:录音带上的声音,是他们必须听见的最重要的声音。因此,他们必须在自己的教会里播放录音带,因为那就是居首位的声音。
As for me and my house, and the Branham Tabernacle, we will stay with God’s PERFECT PROVIDED WAY. We’re going to PRESS PLAY and hear the Voice of God.
至于我和我的家,以及伯兰罕会幕,我们要持守神那完美的供应道路。我们要按下播放键,听神的声音。
I’d love to invite the world to come join us to hear that Voice this Sunday at 12:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, as we once again unite around His chosen provided way for today.
我诚挚地邀请全世界的人,在这个星期日杰弗逊维尔时间下午十二点,与我们一同来听那声音,让我们再一次联合在祂今天所选择的、所预备的道路之下。
Bro. Joseph Branham
