15生命在我们里面所遇到的第四个难处,就是我们天然的干才。无论是我们的天然,或是天性,或是我们的己,都是一种难处,使神的生命在我们里面不容易出来。然而,我们天然的干才、本领,更是一种厉害的拦阻,使神的生命不容易从我们里面出来。有许多弟兄姊妹,他们都非常爱主,也为主热心,实在是敬虔的;然而,在他们身上有一个最厉害的难处,就是他们的干才太大,本事太高,使得基督在他们身上没有地位,没有出路。
15The fourth problem that life encounters in us is our natural capability. Our natural being, disposition, and self are all problems that prevent God’s life from coming out of us. However, the problem of our natural capability and ability is even more serious, and it is a strong obstacle that prevents God’s life from flowing out of us. Many brothers and sisters truly love the Lord, are zealous for the Lord, and are very godly. Nevertheless, their greatest problem is the strength and greatness of their capabilities and abilities. Consequently, Christ has no ground or way in them.
