19在……话语的职事上,最大的难处就是没有负担,或者说不接受负担,不注意负担。……可能在讲台释放话语,却是个没有负担的话语。讲台的负担不是你讲得好,负担就卸了。……这不是你道讲得好不好的问题,也不是他们受不受感动的问题,更不在于你如何将信息讲得有条有理,乃是在于众人听了之后,会产生什么样的果效。如果他们是尚未得救的,你就该接受负担,背负他们的灵魂,靠着主的恩典,在释放话语时,将救恩种到他们里面。……他们若是已经得救却不爱主,你就该接受一个负担,使他们爱主。他们若是爱主却不肯把自己交给主,不肯接受主的对付,你就当接受负担,使他们愿意将自己交给主,受主对付。
19The greatest problem in…the ministry of the word is not having a burden or, we can say, not receiving a burden or not paying attention to a burden… Those who minister the word may…do so without a burden. The discharge of our burden when we minister the word does not depend on how well we speak…It is not a matter of how well we speak, the logistics of our presentation, or whether the saints are touched; rather, it is a matter of what will be produced in the saints. If some are not yet saved, we should receive a burden to bear their souls by the Lord’s grace in order to sow the seed of salvation into them when we release the word…If they are saved but do not love the Lord, our burden should be for them to love the Lord. If they love the Lord but are not willing to give themselves to the Lord and receive His dealing, our burden should be for them to willingly give themselves to the Lord and be dealt with by Him.
