God Who Seeks a Substantial Entity of Goodness 尋找良善實體代身的神
If we consider God's shimjung from various angles, it is fraught with sorrow, and in it there remains some of God's concern. As we see God's providential dispensation being carried out in continuation through today's creatures, we can comprehend that God still seeks the substantial entity that is the ideal of creation.
如果我們從不同的角度來考慮神的心情,我們會發現到那是充滿悲傷的心情,且在其中仍存留著神所關心的事項。正如同我們瞭解到神的攝理直到今天都是通過人類來執行,我們可以瞭解到神仍然在尋找一個理想創造的實體代身。
We the faithful believers today must appear before history and before the providence by becoming a substantial fruitful entity through experiencing God's internal shimjung from the standpoint of God, who is in such a situation. Unless we can be reaped as God wishes and be those whom God can be proud of, you must understand that you will not be able to undo God's acute resentment, penetrating grief, and heart-rending sorrow.
我們今天這群虔誠的信徒必須面對歷史,面對攝理,並且通過從神的觀點來實際地經驗神的內的心情,進而成為一位多結果實的實體代身,而神正是處在那樣的位置。除非我們能朝向神所期待的方向長大成熟,並且成為神得以引以為傲的代身,否則你們必須瞭解到你們是不能解開神的痛苦憾恨,刺骨的憂傷,與被撕裂心情的悲傷。
What is God's sorrow? It is that there is no true human being who is the fruitful entity of goodness, who can have dominion over all things, having the right sense of direction by which all created beings can aim toward goodness. Therefore, human beings must become the fruitful entity of goodness that can express God the Father's internal shimjung by becoming living sacrifices before God. Going further, there has to emerge a representative character who receives God's blessing from among them.
