4月3日:
耶稣不仅仅是完全的人
Not Just a Man
And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
—Colossians 1:17
他在万有之先,万有也靠他而立。
——西1:17
拿破仑所言极是,他说,“我了解许多人,然而我告诉你们,耶稣却不仅仅是人。在这世上无一人能与之相比,因为他是神的儿子。”爱默生所言极是,当他被人问及为何没有将耶稣列入他的《代表人物》之中时,他回答说,“耶稣不仅仅是人。”阿诺尔德·汤因比所言极是,他说“当我们立定脚跟,凝视着遥远的彼岸,从历史的洪流中会凸显出一个形象,这个形象贯穿着整个人类历史进程。那就是救主耶稣。”
Napoleon was right when he said, “I know men, and I tell you, Jesus is more than a man. Comparison is impossible between Him and any other human being who ever lived, because He was the Son of God.” Emerson was right when he replied to those who asked him why he did not include Jesus among his Representative Men, “Jesus was not just a man.” Arnold Toynbee was right when he said, “As we stand and gaze with our eyes fixed upon the farther shore, a simple figure rises from the flood and straightway fills the whole horizon of history. There is the Savior.”
