那在我们 神面前昼夜控告我们弟兄的,已经被摔下去了(启12:10)。
弟兄胜过他,是因羔羊的血和自己所见证的道(启12:11)。
谁能控告 神所拣选的人呢?有 神称他们为义了。谁能定他们的罪呢?有基督耶稣已经死了,而且从死里复活,现今在 神的右边,也替我们祈求(罗8:33,34)。基督将一切执政的掌权的掳来,明显给众人看(西2:15)。特要藉着死,败坏那掌死权的,就是魔鬼,并要释放那些一生因怕死而为奴仆的人(来2:14,15)。然而,靠着爱我们的主,在这一切的事上已经得胜有余了(罗8:37)。要穿戴 神所赐的全副军装,就能抵挡魔鬼的诡计。并戴上救恩的头盔,拿着圣灵的宝剑,就是 神的道(弗6:11,17)。感谢 神,使我们藉着我们的主耶稣基督得胜(林前15:57)。
The accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. REV. 12:10.
They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony. — Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth. Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea, rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. Having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly. — That through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; and deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. — In all these things we are more than conquerors, through him that loved us. — Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. And take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. — Thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

生命树(创2:9)。
神赐给我们永生,这永生是在他儿子里面(约壹5:11)。 神将他的独生子赐给他们,叫一切信他的,不至灭亡,反得永生(约3:16)。
父怎样叫死人起来,使他们活着,子也照样随自己的意思使人活着。因为父怎样在自己有生命,就赐给他儿子也照样在自己有生命(约5:21,26)。得胜的,我必将 神乐园中生命树的果子赐给他吃(启2:7)。在河这边与那边有生命树,结十二样果子,每月都结果子,树上的叶子乃为医治万民(启22:2)。得智慧、得聪明的,这人便为有福。他右手有长寿。他与持守他的作生命树,持定他的俱各有福(箴3:13,16,18)。
基督耶稣成为我们的智慧(林前1:30)。
The tree of life. GEN. 2:9.
God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. — He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. — As the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will. As the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself. To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. — In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. Happy is the man that findeth wisdom. Length of days is in her right hand. She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her. — Christ Jesus, … is made unto us wisdom.
