12有些青年人听见这事，可能会说，“我们真高兴听见这话！我们不要再关心学业或工作了。让我们用所有的时间祷告，并且彼此交通。”这样的态度是错误的。……按马太二十四章四十节看，弟兄们在种田；按四十一节看，姊妹们在推磨。磨谷粒是很辛苦的工作。这指明我们基督徒不该选择轻省的工作，我们需要努力工作以谋生。三十八节的吃喝是属世的，但四十、四十一节的种田和推磨是圣别的。倘若取去的人不是在作圣别的事，他们就不能被提。……有时候，某些姊妹越谈论圣别，就越不圣别。这样的姊妹最好多花些工夫作饭，用佳肴美点服事她们的丈夫、儿女以及她们所接待的人。这样作的姊妹就会是圣别的。有些姊妹知道如何交通到圣别，却不知道如何把饭食作好。她们总是为家人作淡而无味的食物，给自己找借口说，不必为作饭的事浪费时间。但一段时间之后，她们的丈夫、儿女就不满意这样的膳食。这些姊妹越谈论圣别，她们的丈夫、儿女就越不圣别。……我们需要更多圣别的姊妹在磨坊推磨，产生细面。我们没有被麻醉，但我们的确需要得着正确的滋养。
12When some of the young people hear this, they may say, “How glad we are to hear this word! Let’s not care anymore for study or for work. Let us spend all our time praying and having fellowship with one another.” Such an attitude is wrong…According to Matthew 24:40 the brothers were farming, and according to verse 41 the sisters were grinding. Grinding grain is very hard work. This indicates that we Christians should not take easy jobs. We need to work hard in order to make a living. The eating and drinking in verse 38 are worldly, but the farming and grinding in verses 40 and 41 are holy. If the ones taken were not doing something holy, they could not have been raptured…Sometimes the more certain sisters talk about being holy, the less holy they are. It is better for such sisters to spend more time cooking to serve excellent food to their husbands, their children, and those to whom they give hospitality. The sisters who do this will be holy. Some sisters know how to have fellowship about being holy, but they do not know how to do a good job in their cooking. They always cook plain meals for their families, excusing themselves by saying that there is no need for them to waste time in cooking. But after a period of time, their husbands and children are discontent with such cooking. The more these sisters talk about being holy, the less holy their husbands and children become…We need more holy sisters to grind at the mill to produce fine flour. We are not drugged, but we do need to be properly nourished.
