“当用各样的智慧，把基督的道理丰丰富富地存在心里”（西3:16）。{FH.79.1}
上帝的圣言是我们信心的基础，因此我们借着上帝的道才能获得站立在上帝面前的确据。我们不可用感觉来检验自己是否蒙上帝恩待，是否受到鼓励。我们一旦考虑感觉，就处于危险的境地。我们若感到快乐，就以为自己处在有利的状况下。但当情况发生变化，时过境迁，沮丧的感觉会使我们伤心，自然导致我们怀疑上帝对我们的悦纳。……{FH.79.2}
撒但会马上向悔改的人提出种种暗示和困难，削弱其信心，破坏其勇气。他有许多试探能输入人的意念，一个接着一个。但基督徒务必不可专注自己的情绪，迁就自己的感觉，否则他们很快就会迎来那邪恶的宾客，发生疑惑，为绝望所困。……{FH.79.3}
不要崇尚你的感觉并为其所左右，无论你感到好坏悲喜。……你要确信上帝的圣言。……有一场战争是每一个希望拥有生命冠冕的人都必须参加的。得胜者必须用上帝之道的武器打信心美好的仗，寸土必争。我们必须用“经上记着说”对付仇敌。……{FH.79.4}
当仇敌开始吸引你的心离开耶稣，使你不思考祂的仁慈，祂的爱，祂的全备时，不要把宝贵的时间浪费在思念你的感觉上，而要投奔上帝的圣言。圣经记载上帝借着基督创造了诸世界。祂是世上的光。当我们寻求真光研究这道时，就会得到天上的光照。……{FH.79.5}
我们自己若不相信耶稣的爱或在祂的恩典里得享安息，我们虽渴望全世界都因相信耶稣饶恕的爱而归向祂，又能藉此指望成就什么呢？我们若用自己的感觉来衡量并判断我们对祂的爱，又怎么能引领他人达到完全确信，单纯地、孩子似地相信我们的天父呢？——《时兆》，1894年12月3日。{FH.79.6}
Trust the Word, Not Feelings, March 8
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom.?Colossians 3:16.?{FH 79.1}[1]
The Word of God is the foundation of our faith, and therefore it is by the Word of God that we may obtain evidence of our standing before God. We are not to make our feelings a test by which to discern whether we are in or out of favor with God, whether they be what we consider encouraging or not. As soon as we begin to contemplate feelings, we are on dangerous ground. If we feel joyous, we are confident we are in a favorable condition, but when a change comes, as it will, for circumstances will be so arranged that feelings of depression will make the heart sad, then we will be naturally led to doubt that God has accepted us....?{FH 79.2}[2]
Satan will not be slow in presenting to the repentant soul suggestions and difficulties to weaken faith and destroy courage. He has manifold temptations that he can send trooping into the mind, one in succession of another, but Christians must not study their emotions, and give way to their feelings, or they will soon entertain the evil guest, doubt, and become entangled in the perplexities of despair....?{FH 79.3}[3]
Do not exalt your feelings and be swayed by them, whether they be good, bad, sad, or joyful.... It is the Word of God that is to be your assurance.... There is a warfare in which every soul must engage who would have the crown of life. Inch by inch the overcomer must fight the good fight of faith, using the weapons of God’s Word. We must meet the foe with “It is written.” ...?{FH 79.4}[4]
When the enemy begins to draw away the mind from Jesus, to shut away His mercy, His love, His all-sufficiency, do not devote precious time to the consideration of your feelings, but flee to the Word. In the Scriptures Christ is presented as the one by whom God made the worlds. He is the light of the world, and, as we seekers for light study the Word, we find heavenly illumination....?{FH 79.5}[5]
What do we hope to accomplish by longing to have the whole world converted to Jesus by believing in His pardoning love, when we do not ourselves believe in His love or find rest in His grace? How can we possibly lead others to a full assurance, to simple, childlike faith in our heavenly Father, when we are measuring and judging our love to Him by our feelings?—Signs of the Times, December 3, 1894.?{FH 79.6}[6]
