The power of divine teaching
神圣教导的大能
(J. C. Philpot “Meditations on Ephesians”)
(J. C. 菲尔波特《以弗所书默想》)
“Our gospel came to you not simply with words, but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and with deep conviction.” 1 Thes. 1:5
“我们的福音传到你们那里，不单是言语，更是带着能力、圣灵和深切的信念。”帖撒罗尼迦前书1:5
The main reason why men boggle to understanding the Scriptures, is from lack of an experience of the truths set forth in them.
人们难以理解圣经的主要原因，在于缺乏对其中所阐述真理的亲身经历。
They lack the right key which fits this intricate lock, and therefore uselessly poke at it with false keys, which, though they cannot spoil the lock, plainly show the ignorance of the workmen.
他们缺乏能打开这复杂锁头的正确钥匙，因此徒然用错误的钥匙去戳刺，虽然这些钥匙不会损坏锁，但清楚地显明了工匠的无知。
Unless, by the power of divine teaching, we can enter in some good measure spiritually and experimentally into the grand and glorious truths of the everlasting gospel, we can neither see their peculiar beauty, nor feel their peculiar sweetness and blessedness.
除非通过神圣教导的能力，我们能在一定程度上在灵性和经历上进入永恒福音的宏大荣耀真理中，否则我们既不能看见其独特的美，也不能感受其独特的甘甜与福分。
