    Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your salvation with fear and trembling.
    这样,我亲爱的弟兄,你们既是常顺服的,不但我在你们那里,就是我如今不在你们那里,更是顺服的,就当恐惧战兢,作成你们得救的工夫。

    For it is God that worketh in you to will and to do according to his good pleasure.—PHIL. 2:12-13.
    因为你们立志行事,都是神在你们心里运行,为要成就祂的美意。——腓立比书 2:12-13。

    What does it mean to “work out your own salvation with fear and trembling”?
    “恐惧战兢,作成你们得救的工夫”意味着什么?

    In this timeless exposition, Puritan pastor-theologian Richard Sibbes opens up Philippians 2 with the tender clarity and spiritual insight that earned him the title “the heavenly Doctor.”
    在这部永恒的释经著作中,清教徒牧师兼神学家理查德·西布斯(Richard Sibbes)以温柔的清晰度和属灵的洞察力开启了腓立比书第2章,这也为他赢得了“天上的博士”(the heavenly Doctor)这一称号。

    Sibbes writes not as a detached academic, but as a shepherd of souls—earnestly applying God’s Word to the heart and conscience of the believer.
    西布斯的写作并不是作为一个超然的学者,而是作为一个灵魂的牧人——恳切地将神的道应用在信徒的心灵和良心上。

    In these pages, Sibbes draws out the rich theological and practical depth of Paul’s exhortation.
    在这些书页中,西布斯引出了保罗劝勉中丰富的神学和实践深度。

    He explores the mystery of God’s sovereign grace working in us, and how that grace energizes our responsibility to live lives of holiness, humility, and obedience.
    他探索了神主权的恩典在我们里面运行的奥秘,以及这恩典如何激发我们的责任,去过圣洁、谦卑和顺服的生活。

    With great care, he unpacks the paradox of divine power and human effort—not as opposing forces, but as the harmony of God’s covenantal work in His people.
    他非常细致地剖析了神的大能与人的努力这一悖论——不是将其视为对立的力量,而是作为神在祂子民中圣约工作的和谐。

    Sibbes moves through the chapter with attention to every clause: from the call to unity and lowliness (v.1–4), to the exaltation of Christ’s humility (v.5–11), to the daily obedience of the Christian life (v.12–16), and finally to Paul’s own example of gospel labor and joy (v.17–30).
    西布斯关注每一处经文子句,以此贯穿整章:从呼召合一与谦卑(1-4节),到基督降卑的高举(5-11节),到基督徒生活的日常顺服(12-16节),最后到保罗自己福音劳苦与喜乐的榜样(17-30节)。

    Throughout, the reader is invited not merely to understand doctrine, but to delight in it—to see Christ exalted and to respond with reverent obedience and joyful service.
    纵观全书,读者受邀不仅要理解教义,更要以其为乐——仰望基督被高举,并以敬虔的顺服和喜乐的事奉作为回应。

    This exposition is warm, pastoral, and deeply rooted in Scripture.
    这部释经著作温暖、具有牧养性,且深深扎根于圣经。

    Whether used for personal devotion, discipleship, or group study, Work Out Your Salvation will deepen your understanding of sanctification, strengthen your assurance in God’s grace, and stir your heart to live worthy of the gospel of Christ.
    无论是用于个人灵修、门徒训练还是小组学习,《作成得救的工夫》(Work Out Your Salvation)都将加深你对成圣的理解,坚固你对神恩典的确据,并激动你的心,去过与基督福音相称的生活。
