1“Enter into the Rest of the Lord”

1「進入主的安息」

2The inspiration you receive as you ponder the scriptures is precious. You can show that you treasure it by recording and acting on it.

2沉思經文時獲得的靈感非常珍貴。將這些靈感記錄下來並付諸行動,就是在表明自己珍惜這些靈感。

4In many ways, life in Ammonihah had been good for both Amulek and Zeezrom. Amulek was “a man of no small reputation,” with “many kindreds and friends” and “much riches” (Alma 10:4). Zeezrom was “one of the most expert” among the lawyers and enjoyed “much business” (Alma 10:31). Then Alma arrived in Ammonihah with a divine invitation to repent and “enter into the rest of the Lord” (Alma 13:16). For Amulek, Zeezrom, and others, accepting this invitation required sacrifice and even led to almost unbearable adversity.

4從許多方面來說,艾繆萊克和齊愛治樂在艾蒙乃哈的生活算過得不錯。艾繆萊克是個「頗受敬重的人」,有「很多親戚朋友」和「許多財富」(阿爾瑪書10:4)。齊愛治樂在當地律師中是「最老道的」,有「很多業務」(阿爾瑪書10:31)。然後,阿爾瑪帶著神的邀請抵達艾蒙乃哈,要他們悔改,「進入主的安息」(阿爾瑪書13:16)。對艾繆萊克和齊愛治樂等人來說,接受這項邀請需要犧牲,甚至會帶來令人幾乎無法忍受的苦難。

5But of course the story doesn’t end there. In Alma 13–16, we learn what ultimately happens to those who believe “in the power of Christ unto salvation” (Alma 15:6). Sometimes there’s deliverance, sometimes healing—and sometimes things don’t get any easier in this life. But always, “the Lord receiveth [His people] up unto himself, in glory” (Alma 14:11). Always, the Lord grants “power, according to [our] faith which [is] in Christ” (Alma 14:28). And always, that “faith on the Lord” gives us “hope that [we] shall receive eternal life” (Alma 13:29). As you read these chapters, you can take comfort in these promises, and you may come to understand better what Alma meant when he spoke of “the rest of the Lord.”

5但故事當然不是在此結束。我們在阿爾瑪書第13~16章中學到,相信「基督的救恩大能」(阿爾瑪書15:6)的人最後會發生什麼事。今生時有解救,時有醫治,也時有諸事不順的時候。不過一直不變的是,「主會將〔祂的人民〕接上去到自己身邊,接到榮耀裡」(阿爾瑪書14:11),也會一直「按照〔我們〕對基督的信心,賜給〔我們〕力量」(阿爾瑪書14:28)。而「對主有信心」,將一直賜給我們「獲得永生的希望」(阿爾瑪書13:29)。閱讀這幾章時,你可以在這些應許中得到安慰,並且越來越了解阿爾瑪所說的「主的安息」是什麼意思。

6Alma 13:1–19

6阿爾瑪書13:1-19

7Priesthood ordinances help me receive redemption through Jesus Christ.

7聖職教儀幫助我獲得因耶穌基督而來的救贖。

8You might recall that in Alma 12, Alma taught about God’s plan of redemption (see Alma 12:24–27). In chapter 13, he spoke about the priests whom God ordained “to teach these things unto the people” (Alma 13:1). Alma’s words reveal many powerful truths about the priesthood. Perhaps you could try to identify at least one truth per verse in Alma 13:1–9. Here are some ideas to get you started:

8你可能記得阿爾瑪在阿爾瑪書第12章曾教導過神的救贖計畫(見阿爾瑪書12:24-27)。他在第13章談到神按立了祭司來「教導人民這些事」(阿爾瑪書13:1)。阿爾瑪的話揭示了許多關於聖職的偉大真理。或許你可以試著找出阿爾瑪書13:1-9中每節經文所包含的至少一個真理。以下幾個建議能幫助你開始:

9The priesthood is also called “the order of [God’s] Son” (see also Doctrine and Covenants 107:1–4).

9聖職又稱為「〔神〕兒子的體制」(亦見教約107:1-4)。

10God ordains priests to help people look to His Son for redemption.

10神按立祭司來幫助人民期待祂兒子的救贖。

11Priesthood holders were prepared for their responsibilities “from the foundation of the world.”

11聖職持有人「從世界奠基時」就已被預備來承擔他們的責任。

12What else do you find? How do you feel about the priesthood as you ponder these truths? How have priesthood ordinances helped you look to Christ for redemption?

12你還找到哪些真理?沉思這些真理時,你對聖職有什麼感受?聖職教儀如何幫助你期待基督的救贖?

13It’s interesting to note that many of the people in Ammonihah were followers of Nehor (see Alma 14:18; 15:15). How were priests of Nehor’s order (see Alma 1:3–6) different from the priests ordained “after the Order of the Son of God” (Doctrine and Covenants 107:3), whom Alma described? (see Alma 13:1–19).

13有一點很有意思,那就是艾蒙乃哈有許多人是尼賀的跟隨者(見阿爾瑪書14:18;15:15)。尼賀祭司的體制(見阿爾瑪書1:3-6)與阿爾瑪所描述的「按照神子體制」(教約107:3)按立的祭司,兩者有何不同?(見阿爾瑪書13:1-19。)

15Priesthood ordinances help us look to Jesus Christ for redemption.

15聖職教儀幫助我們期待耶穌基督的救贖。

16Alma 13:3

16阿爾瑪書13:3

17Are priesthood holders the only people “called and prepared from the foundation of the world”?

17只有聖職持有人是「從世界奠基時就已蒙召喚和預備了」的人嗎?

18Alma’s teachings in Alma 13:3 refer specifically to priesthood holders. However, the principle he taught—that individuals received assignments and prepared to fulfill them “from the foundation of the world”—applies to all of us. President Spencer W. Kimball said: “In the world before we came here, faithful women were given certain assignments while faithful men were foreordained to certain priesthood tasks. While we do not now remember the particulars, this does not alter the glorious reality of what we once agreed to” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Spencer W. Kimball [2006], 215–16; see also Doctrine and Covenants 138:55–56).

18阿爾瑪在阿爾瑪書13:3的教導特別是指聖職持有人。不過,他所教導的原則卻適用我們所有的人,即每個人「從世界奠基時」就各有指派,並預備來完成這些指派。賓塞 ·甘會長說過:「在我們來到這世界前,忠信的婦女接受一些任務,忠信的男子則蒙預派擔任一些聖職工作。雖然我們現在已忘記其中細節,卻不會改變我們當初所同意的榮耀事實」(總會會長的教訓:賓塞·甘〔2006〕,第215-216頁;亦見教約138:55-56)。

19Alma 14

19阿爾瑪書第14章

20Sometimes God allows the righteous to suffer.

20神有時會容許義人受苦。

21Alma 14 tells of righteous people who suffered and even died because of their beliefs. You might wonder, as many do, why terrible things happen to people who are trying to live righteously. You may not find all the answers to this difficult question in Alma 14, but there is much to learn from the way Alma and Amulek responded to the situations they faced. What do their words and actions teach you about why the Lord sometimes allows righteous people to suffer? What do you learn from them about facing persecution?

21阿爾瑪書第14章描述一群受苦的義人,他們甚至為信仰而死。你可能會和許多人一樣質疑,為什麼可怕的事會發生在那些努力過正義生活的人身上。你可能無法在阿爾瑪書第14章找到這個難題的所有答案,不過,你可以從阿爾瑪和艾繆萊克回應自身處境的方式,學到很多事。關於為何主有時會容許義人受苦這件事,他們所說的話和行為教導了你哪些事?關於面對迫害,你從他們身上學到哪些事?

22See also Matthew 5:43–44; Mark 14:55–65; Romans 8:35–39; 1 Peter 4:12–14; Doctrine and Covenants 122:5–9.

22亦見馬太福音5:43-44;馬可福音14:55-65;羅馬書8:35-39;彼得前書4:12-14;教義和聖約122:5-9。

23Alma 15:16, 18

23阿爾瑪書15:16,18

24Discipleship requires sacrifice.

24門徒必須犧牲。

25It might be interesting to make a list of the things Amulek gave up to embrace the gospel (see Alma 10:4–5; 15:16) and compare it to a list of what he gained (see Alma 15:18; 16:13–15; 34:8). What are you willing to sacrifice in order to become a more faithful disciple?

25列出艾繆萊克為接受福音而放棄的事物(見阿爾瑪書10:4-5;15:16),再列出他之後所獲得的事物(見阿爾瑪書15:18;16:13-15;34:8),然後作比較,可能會很有意思。為了成為更忠信的門徒,你願意犧牲什麼?

26As you read the scriptures with your family, the Spirit can help you know what principles to emphasize and discuss in order to meet the needs of your family. Here are some ideas.

26你和家人一起閱讀經文時,聖靈會幫助你知道該強調並討論哪些原則,以符合家庭的需求。以下是一些建議:

27Alma 13

27阿爾瑪書第13章

28Your family might benefit from noting every time the word “rest” appears in Alma 13. What other words and ideas appear with it? How does this help us understand what “the rest of the Lord” might mean? How is it different from physical rest?

28注意阿爾瑪書第13章裡「安息」一詞每次出現的時機,可能會使你的家庭受益。還有哪些詞和概念跟著這個詞一起出現?這一點如何幫助我們了解「主的安息」的意思?這和身體的休息有何不同?

29Alma 13:10–12

29阿爾瑪書13:10-12

30To help your family visualize what these verses teach, maybe you could wash something together—like some white clothing. How do we feel when we are dirty? How do we feel when we become clean again? How are these feelings similar to what we feel when we sin and then repent and become clean through the Savior’s Atonement?

30為了幫助你的家庭對這幾節經文的教導有具體的概念,或許你們可以一起清洗某個東西,如:白衣服。我們身上骯髒時,心中有何感覺?當我們又變乾淨時,心中有何感覺?這些感覺和我們犯罪、悔改,藉著救主的贖罪成為潔淨的感覺,有何類似之處?

31Alma 15:1–12

31阿爾瑪書15:1-12

32What do we learn from Zeezrom’s experience about the Lord’s power to strengthen and heal us, even when we make mistakes? What role can the priesthood play in our receiving His strength and healing?

32我們從齊愛治樂的經歷學習到,即使我們犯錯了,主的大能如何增強和治癒我們?聖職能在我們獲得祂的力量和醫治一事上扮演什麼角色?

33Alma 16:1–10

33阿爾瑪書16:1-10

34After reading these verses, you might read Alma 9:4. What do we learn by contrasting the way Zoram felt about the prophet’s words with the way the people of Ammonihah felt? What are we doing to be faithful to the words of our living prophet?

34讀完這幾節經文後,可以讀阿爾瑪書9:4。比較卓倫和艾蒙乃哈的人民對先知說的話有什麼不同的感受,讓我們學到什麼?我們正在做哪些事,好忠於活著先知的話?

36Improving Our Teaching

36改進教導

37Be ready always. Teaching moments pass quickly, so take advantage of them when they arise. A tragedy in the world, for example, may be a chance to share principles from Alma 14 about why the Lord sometimes allows the innocent to suffer. (See Teaching in the Savior’s Way, 16.)

37常作準備。教導時機稍縱即逝,把握每一次機會是很重要的。例如,世上發生悲劇的時候或許是分享阿爾瑪書第14章中原則的好機會;這些原則教導我們為什麼主有時會容許無辜者受苦。(見以救主的方式教導,第16頁。)
