"We cannot remain neutral"

Quote For Meditation: (Ellie Wiesel)

Re: moral affairs - "We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim... Sometimes we must interfere."

关于道德的事,我们必须立场鲜明.中立帮助强势欺压者,而不会让受害者得益.....有时候,我们必须介入."

Matthew 5:14-16 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

马太福音 5:14-16
你们是世上的光.城造在山上、是不能隐藏的。人点灯、不放在斗底下、是放在灯台上、就照亮一家的人。你们的光也当这样照在人前、叫他们看见你们的好行为、便将荣耀归给你们在天上的父。

Malachi 3:5
“So I will come to put you on trial. I will be quick to testify against sorcerers, adulterers and perjurers, against those who defraud laborers of their wages, who oppress the widows and the fatherless, and deprive the foreigners among you of justice, but do not fear me,” says the Lord Almighty.

玛拉基书3:5
万军之耶和华说、我必临近你们、施行审判.我必速速作见证、警戒行邪术的、犯奸淫的、起假誓的、亏负人之工价的、欺压寡妇孤儿的、屈枉寄居的、和不敬畏我的。

Luke 19:45-46
When Jesus entered the temple courts, he began to drive out those who were selling. “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be a house of prayer’; but you have made it ‘a den of robbers."

路加福音19:45-46
耶稣进了殿、赶出里头作买卖的人,对他们说、经上说、『我的殿、必作祷告的殿。』你们倒使他成为贼窝了
