4229. 第32章
最后的审判 (续)
我们从第三卷 (系指拉丁文的第3卷) 开始解释主在马太福音 24章关于最后审判的预言. 这些解释被放在了那一卷最后几章的开头部分, 目前已解释到31节 (参看3353-3356, 3486-3489, 3650-3655, 3897-3901, 4056-4060节).
概括地说, 主的这些预言的内义从所给出的解释很清楚看出来, 即祂预言了教会的逐渐毁灭和最终一个新教会的建立, 其次序如下:
⑴教会成员不再知道何为良善与真理, 反而开始彼此争论它们.
⑵他们蔑视它们.
⑶他们从心里不承认它们.
⑷他们亵渎它们.
⑸由于信之真理和爱之良善仍存留在某些被称为 “选民” 的人当中, 故经上描述了那时信之真理所具有的状态.
⑹然后描述了仁的状态.
⑺最后论述了一个新教会的开始, 由最后所解释的那些话来表示, 即:
祂要差遣祂的使者, 用号筒的大声, 将祂的选民从四风, 从天这边到天那边, 都招聚了来. (马太福音 24:31)
这些话表示一个新教会的开始 (参看4060末尾节).
5
Test your own selves, whether you are in the faith. Test your own selves. Or don't you know as to your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you?--unless indeed you are disqualified.
6
But I hope that you will know that we aren't disqualified.
7
Now I pray to God that you do no evil; not that we may appear approved, but that you may do that which is honorable, though we are as reprobate.
8
For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
