“父怎样吩咐我，我就怎样行”（约14:31）。{FH.95.1}
凡体验过上帝福惠的人，应成为最感恩的人。{FH.95.2}
他们应该向上帝献上感恩的话，因为基督来成了罪身的形状，以人性披覆祂的神性，使世人能在祂自己的品格中看到上帝的完全。祂来表明上帝不是一位严厉的法官，而是一位慈爱的父亲。……{FH.95.3}
主耶稣在凡事上都树立了榜样。祂借着自己所做的事，清楚地表明祂是与父商议的，一举一动都在执行上帝永恒的旨意。祂在精神上，工作上和在整个地上的一生中，都显示了上帝对祂子民的心愿和旨意。祂顺从了律法，以自己的人性证明了律法是上帝完美的副本。上帝把基督赐给世人，是要让堕落的人类深刻地认识到祂对于我们的大爱。祂虽然希望人人都悔改，但祂的品格也表明，祂断不以有罪的为无罪。如果祂对罪略有认可，祂的宝座就会败坏。……{FH.95.4}
凡接受耶稣基督为个人救主的人，也会得到天上的保护和亮光，因为上帝的天使奉差遣为那些将要承受救恩的人效力。向雅各布展示的梯子，底部立在地上，梯顶直达上帝的宝座，天使在上面上去下来；这是救恩计划的象征。如果这梯子离地一寸，天与地之间的连接就会断开，所有的人就都会绝望沦丧。但那梯子是稳立在地上的，把天与地连接起来，使堕落的人类蒙赎得救。基督就是雅各布见到的那个梯子，底部在地上，梯顶直达上帝的宝座。……借着基督，天上的生灵可以与人类交通。——《时兆》，1895年4月11日。{FH.95.5}
Christ Connects Heaven to Earth, March 24
As the Father gave Me commandment, so I do.?John 14:31.?{FH 95.1}[1]
Those who have experienced the blessing of God should be the most grateful of persons.?{FH 95.2}[2]
They should send up to God words of thanksgiving because Christ came in the likeness of sinful flesh, clothing His divinity with humanity in order that He might bring before the world the perfection of God in His own character. He came to represent God, not as a stern judge, but as a loving father....?{FH 95.3}[3]
The Lord Jesus is an example in all things. By the works which He did He made it plain that He was in council with the Father and that He was in every move fulfilling the eternal purposes of God. In spirit, in works, in His whole earthly history, He revealed the mind and purpose of God toward His heritage among humanity. In His obedience to the law of God, He exemplified in His human nature the fact that the law is a transcript of divine perfection. In the gift of Christ to the world God would overwhelm fallen men and women with a marvelous manifestation of His great love wherewith He has loved us; but while He would that all should come to repentance, the declaration no less expressed His character, that He will by no means clear the guilty. Should He give the least sanction to sin, His throne would be corrupted....?{FH 95.4}[4]
All who receive Jesus Christ as their personal Savior also are provided with heavenly protection and heavenly light, for the angels of God are sent to minister to those who shall be heirs of salvation. The representation given to Jacob of a ladder whose base rested upon earth and whose top reached to the throne of God, whereon ascended and descended the angels of heaven, is a representation of the plan of salvation. Had the ladder failed to connect with earth by one inch, the connection between earth and heaven would have been broken, and all would have been hopelessly lost. But the ladder is planted firmly upon the earth, that heaven may connect with earth and that the fallen human family be redeemed and rescued. Christ is the ladder that Jacob saw, whose base is upon the earth and whose topmost round reaches the throne of God.... Through Christ heavenly intelligences may communicate with human agents.—Signs of the Times, April 11, 1895.?{FH 95.5}[5]
