記錄心得感想(03-09)
3Have you ever struggled to express to others what you felt during a powerful spiritual experience?
3對於自己深刻感受到的靈性經驗，你是否曾感覺很難向他人表達？
4Everyday language can feel inadequate to describe spiritual feelings and impressions.
4日常生活用語可能都不足以形容這些靈性的感受和靈感啟發。
5Perhaps this is why John used such rich symbolism and imagery to describe his majestic revelation.
5或許這就是約翰要用眾多具象徵意義的意象來形容他非凡啟示的原因。
6He could have simply stated that he saw Jesus Christ, but to help us understand his experience, he described the Savior using words like these: “His eyes were as a flame of fire,” “out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword,” and “his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength” (Revelation 1:14–16).
6他大可直接說他看到了耶穌基督，但為了幫助我們了解他的經驗，他用這樣的詞語來描述救主：「眼目如同火焰」，「從他口中出來一把兩刃的利劍」，「面貌如同烈日放光」（啟示錄1：14-16）。
7As you read the book of Revelation, try to discover the messages John wanted you to learn and feel, even if you don’t understand the meaning behind every symbol.
7研讀啟示錄時，即使無法了解所有象徵背後的意義，也請試著去找出約翰希望你學習和感受的信息。
8Why might he have compared Church congregations to candlesticks, Satan to a dragon, and Jesus Christ to a lamb?
8為什麼他要將教會的會眾比作燈臺，將撒但比作龍，又將耶穌基督比作羔羊？
9Ultimately, you don’t have to understand every symbol in Revelation to understand its important themes, including its most prominent theme: Jesus Christ and His followers will triumph over the kingdoms of men and of Satan.
9最後，你不需要了解啟示錄中每一個象徵，就能了解其中重要的主題，它最重要的主題就是：耶穌基督和祂的跟隨者會戰勝人的國和撒但的國。
個人經文研讀的建議：我要如何理解啟示錄的意義？(10-17)
10The book of Revelation can be hard to understand, but don’t get discouraged.
10啟示錄可能不容易理解，但不需因此感到沮喪。
11John’s promise may inspire you to keep trying: “Blessed are they who read, and they who hear and understand the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein, for the time of the coming of the Lord draweth nigh”.
11約翰的應許可能會鼓勵你繼續嘗試：「念這書上預言的，並聽見又明白的，以及遵守其中所記載的，都是有福的，因為主來臨的時刻近了」。

啟示(18-25)
18As you begin studying the book of Revelation, think about how the things you read connect to what you know about Heavenly Father’s plan for the redemption and exaltation of His children.
18開始研讀啟示錄這部書時，想一想你所讀到的內容，和你所知道天父對祂兒女救恩和超升的計畫，兩者之間有何關聯。
19You could start by reviewing the overview of the plan of salvation in Preach My Gospel (pages 47–59).
19你可以在開始時復習宣講我的福音的整個救恩計畫（第47-59頁），
20Then, as you read John’s account of his vision, ask yourself questions like these: What truths do I learn from Revelation about what Heavenly Father has done to help me return to Him?
20接著一邊研讀約翰所記載的異象，一邊問自己這樣的問題：我從啟示錄學到哪些真理，讓我知道天父做了什麼幫助我回到祂身邊？
21How can this help me understand God’s plan for me?
21這如何能幫助我了解神對我的計畫？
22It may help you to know that in general:

26The Savior’s words in Revelation 2–3 reveal that He understood the successes and struggles unique to each branch of the Church in John’s day.
26救主在啟示錄第2～3章中所說的話，顯示出祂清楚了解約翰時代教會各分會獨特的成功與困難之處。
27He reassured the Saints in several congregations that He was aware of, among other things, their “works,” “tribulation,” “poverty,” and “charity” (Revelation 2:2, 9, 19)—along with some ways they could improve.
27祂向好幾個會眾聖徒保證，祂知道他們中間的許多其他事情，包括他們的「行為」、「患難」、「貧窮」和「愛心」（啟示錄2：2，9，19）——也知道他們可以改進的方式。

32As you read about these events, consider what it must have been like when we all realized that Jesus Christ (the “Lamb”) would make Heavenly Father’s plan possible (open the book and loose the seven seals).
32研讀這些事件時，想一想當我們所有的人知道耶穌基督（「羔羊」）會實現天父的計畫（展開書卷並揭開七印）時，會是什麼樣的景況？
