基督徒

A ny more than those Christians were murtherers, who often put to death the prisoners taken in battle; or more frequently, upon many occasions, put whole troops of men to the sword, without giving quarter , though they threw down their a rms a nd submitted.

有些基督徒在战斗中常常把战俘处死，甚至在敌人已经丢下武器投降后，还把成队成队的敌人毫无人道地杀个精光。从这方面来看，那些土人与战斗中残杀俘虏的基督徒岂不一样！

When I had consider'd this a little, it follow'd necessarily, that I was certainly in the Wrong in it, that these People were not Murtherers in the Sense that I had before condemn'd them, in my Thoughts; any more than those Christians were Murtherers, who often put to Death the Prisoners taken in Battle; or more frequently, upon many Occasions, put whole Troops of Men to the Sword, without giving Quarter, though they threw down their Arms and submitted.

于是，我对自己的计划也改变了看法，并开始冷静地考虑我自己的行动。我想：这么多世纪以来，上天都容许这些人不断互相残杀而不惩罚他们，那我有什么权力和责任擅自将他们判罪处死，代替上天执行对他们的判决呢？这些人对我又究竟犯了什么滔天大罪呢？我又有什么权力参与他们的自相残杀呢？我经常同自己进行辩论：&我怎么知道上帝对于这件公案是怎样判断的呢？毫无疑问，这些人并不知道他们互相吞食是犯罪行为；他们那样做并不违反他们的良心，因而他们也不会受到良心的谴责。他们并不知道食人是违背天理的罪行而故意去犯罪，就像我们大多数人犯罪时一样。他们并不认为杀死战俘是犯罪行为，正如我们并不认为杀牛是犯罪行为；他们也不认为吃人肉是犯罪行为，正如我们并不认为吃羊肉是犯罪行为。&我稍稍从这方面考虑了一下，就觉得自己不对了。我感到他们并不是我过去心目中所谴责的杀人犯。有些基督徒在战斗中常常把战俘处死，甚至在敌人已经丢下武器投降后，还把成队成队的敌人毫无人道地杀个精光。从这方面来看，那些土人与战斗中残杀俘虏的基督徒岂不一样！

Our non-Christian society and family do not support us in living as Christians, so we must become each other's new society and family.

我们的非基督徒社会和家人不会支持我们活出基督徒生活的样子，所以我们必须成为彼此的新社会和家庭。

Whether you're looking for a Christian or non-Christian tattoo design, a cross might just be what you want to go for.

不管你要找的是基督徒还是非基督徒纹身设计、交叉可能只是你要去作。

In the first century, many Christians had to live in a slave-owning society. Paul's instructions to Christian slaves were that they were to obey their masters - bad masters as well as good.

His own personal example was：公元一世纪，很多基督徒生活在一个可以拥有奴隶的社会，保罗对那些是基督徒的奴隶的指示是：要服从他们的主人，不管他们的主人是好的还是坏的。

It is because Christians so little bear the mark of this self-emptying and humiliation even unto death, that the world refuses to believe in the possibility of a Christ-filled life.

，然而基督徒很少真正倒空自己，或为耶稣的名忍受羞辱，因此世人看不出基督徒与一般人有什麼两样，这实在值得我们反省。

Hugh himself, if he is to marry his Roda, will have to convert to Islam, a process that is daunting for an Egyptian Copt but which, for a foreign Christian, turns out to be as easy as buying a bus ticket.

Hugh如果真想娶他的Roda，就不得不皈依真主门下，改变他原有的信仰。对本地基督徒来说，这种&摇身一变&会让他毛骨悚然，但对一个外国的基督徒而言，它就像坐巴士买张车票那样简单。

It is not simply a piece of 'Christian Yoga', a type of 'Transcendental Meditation', or a 'Christian mantra', even though some have tried to interpret it in this way.

它不只是一种&基督徒的瑜珈术&，一种&超觉静坐&，或是一种&基督徒的净土法门&，尽管有人想要以这种方法来阐释它。

This is an important question to ask Chinese churchgoers, because the vast majority of Chinese who go to church are Christian Chinese and not Chinese Christians.

对出入教会的中国人而言，这是非常关键的问题。因为大多数出入教会的中国人是基督徒的中国人，而不是中国的基督徒。

I'm strongly against the death penalty — it's an eye for an eye.

我不赞成死刑——这是以牙还牙的报复行为。

And to get you the support you need, we're enlisting all elements of our national power: our diplomacy and development, our economic might and our moral suasion, so that you and the rest of our military do not bear the burden of our security alone.

并给你们所须的支援，我们正徵召国家所有各种的力量：我们的外交及发展，我们的经济力量与道德劝说，所以你们与其他军人不须要孤独地负起国家安全的责任。
