二　神是圣别的；圣别是神一个主要的属性—彼前一15~16：

Ｂ　God is holy; holiness is one of the main attributes of God—1 Pet. 1:15-16:

１　“四活物……昼夜不歇息地说，圣哉，圣哉，圣哉，主神是昔是今是以后永是的全能者”—启四8：

１　“The four living creatures…have no rest day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God the Almighty, who was and who is and who is coming”—Rev. 4:8:

ａ　启示录四章八节强调三一神是圣别的，是三重的圣别，指神的性情—神的所是—的性质；凡神所是的，都是圣别的—赛六3。

ａ　The emphasis in Revelation 4:8 is that the Triune God is holy and is triply holy, referring to the quality of God’s nature—God’s being; what He is, is holy—Isa. 6:3.

ｂ　有分于神的圣别，就是有分于祂的性情，祂之所是的性质—来十二10。

ｂ　To partake of God’s holiness is to partake of the quality of His nature, of what He is—Heb. 12:10.

２　“我们的神乃是烈火”—29节：

２　“Our God is also a consuming fire”—v. 29:

ａ　神在祂的圣别和严厉上是烈火—申九3，罗十一22。

ａ　God is a consuming fire in His holiness and severity—Deut. 9:3; Rom. 11:22.

ｂ　凡与祂的圣别性情不符的，祂这烈火就要烧尽；因此祂是严厉的，在严厉上彰显祂的圣别—申九3。

ｂ　Whatever does not correspond to His holy nature, He, as the consuming fire, will consume; thus, He is severe, expressing His holiness in severity—Deut. 9:3.

三　神是信实的—彼前四19，林前一9，十13，启三14，十九11：

　

１　神的话是信实的；凡从神口中所出的必要成就—申八3，提前一15，提后二11。

　

２　信实的神召了我们，也必要全然圣别我们，并保守我们全人得以完全—帖前五23~24。
