第二篇　新约的职事─照着使徒教训的惟一职事
Message Two The New Testament Ministry— the Unique Ministry according to the Apostles' Teaching
壹　新约的职事，是在宇宙中独一无二的职事─徒一17，25，林后四1，提前一12：
I.　The ministry of the New Testament, which is the ministry of the new covenant, is uniquely one universally—Acts 1:17, 25; 2 Cor. 4:1; 1 Tim. 1:12:
一　那灵的职事和义的职事，也就是新约的职事，与属死和定罪的职事，也就是旧约的职事，是相对的─林后三7~9。
A.　The ministry of the Spirit and of righteousness, which is the ministry of the new covenant, is in contrast with the ministry of death and of condemnation, which is the ministry of the old covenant—2 Cor. 3:7-9.
二　新约职事的工作，乃是完成神关于召会的新约经纶，以建造基督的身体，终极完成新耶路撒冷─弗三9~10，四11~12。
B.　The work of the New Testament ministry is to accomplish God's New Testament economy concerning the church in the building up of the Body of Christ to consummate the New Jerusalem—Eph. 3:9-10; 4:11-12.
贰　新约的职事是独一无二的，但有许多的执事有分于这一个职事─徒二十24，二十一19，提后四5，西四17：
II.　The ministry of the New Testament is uniquely one, but there are many ministers who have a part in this one ministry—Acts 20:24; 21:19; 2 Tim. 4:5; Col. 4:17:
一　新约惟一的职事包括众使徒所有的工作（众职事），而众使徒乃是新约的众执事─林后三6。
A.　The unique ministry of the New Testament comprises all the works (ministries) of all the apostles, the ministers of the new covenant—2 Cor. 3:6.
二　新约的职事是独一无二的，也是团体的，但因为这职事是基督身体的事奉，又因为基督身体有许多的肢体，所以每一个肢体有其自己个人的职事。
B.　The New Testament ministry is uniquely one and corporate, but because this ministry is the service of the Body of Christ and because the Body has many members, every member has its own personal ministry.
三　因此，就着肢体说，有许多个人的职事;然而，就整个身体说，只有一个职事。
C.　Thus, according to the members, there are many personal ministries; however, according to the Body as a whole, there is just one ministry.
四　虽然执事有许多，但所有这些执事只有一个团体的职事，就是新约的职事。
D.　Although the ministers are many, all these ministers have only one corporate ministry, which is the New Testament ministry.
叁　除了那为着完成神新约经纶的使徒教训以外，其它一切教训的工作（众职事）都不算在这惟一的职事里─徒二42，提前一3~4：
III.　All the works (the ministries) of the teachings other than the teaching of the apostles for the accomplishment of God's New Testament economy are not counted in this unique ministry—Acts 2:42; 1 Tim. 1:3-4:
一　正确的职事乃是照着使徒教训，就是神新约经纶教训的职事，为着建造基督的身体，终极完成新耶路撒冷。
A.　The proper ministry is the ministry according to the apostles' teaching, the teaching of God's New Testament economy, for the building up of the Body of Christ to consummate the New Jerusalem.
二　神在信仰里的经纶，乃是神的家庭行政，要在基督里将祂自己分赐到祂所拣选的人里面，使祂得着一个家彰显祂自己，这家就是召会，基督的身体。
B.　God's economy in faith is His household administration to dispense Himself in Christ into His chosen people that He may have a house to express Himself, which house is the church, the Body of Christ.
三　在神经纶惟一之教训以外的其它教训，都被使徒看作是不同的教训─提前一3~4。
C.　Any teaching other than the unique teaching of God's economy is considered by the apostle as a different teaching—1 Tim. 1:3-4.
肆　分裂都是来自带着不同教训的不同职事：
IV.　Divisions come out of different ministries with different teachings:
一　异议者不同的教训，乃是被神仇敌所利用的风，要打岔神的子民，将他们从神的经纶带开─弗四14。
A.　The different teachings of the dissenting ones are winds used by God's enemy to distract His people and carry them away from His economy—Eph. 4:14.
二　分裂的教训为撒但所组织并系统化，造成严重的错谬，因而破坏基督身体生活实行的一。
B.　The dividing teachings are organized and systematized by Satan to cause serious error and thus damage the practical oneness of the Body life.
三　不同的教训乃是召会败落、堕落、并变质的主要根源─提前一3~4，6~7，六3~5，20~21。
C.　The different teachings are the major source of the church's decline, degradation, and deterioration—1 Tim. 1:3-4, 6-7; 6:3-5, 20-21.
伍　分辨真正新约的职事，有两个秘诀：
V.　There are two secrets of discerning the genuine New Testament ministry:
一　今天“热中犹太教的人”挑起问题，使信徒从主耶稣宝贵的人位岔开，但真正的职事激起我们对主耶稣这位新郎的爱，使我们享受祂作我们的丈夫到极点─林后十一2~3。
A.　Today‘s "Judaizers" stir up questions to distract the believers from the precious person of the Lord Jesus, but the genuine ministry stirs up our love for the Lord Jesus as our Bridegroom so that we may enjoy Him to the uttermost as our Husband—2 Cor. 11:2-3.
二　今天“热中犹太教的人”不为基督的身体受苦，但真正的职事加强我们来跟随基督，为着祂身体的缘故，交通于祂的受苦─林后十一23~33，腓三10，西一24。
B.　Today‘s "Judaizers" do not suffer for the Body of Christ, but the genuine ministry strengthens us to follow Christ in the fellowship of His sufferings for the sake of His Body—2 Cor. 11:23-33; Phil. 3:10; Col. 1:24.
陆　新约的职事是借着受苦、消耗的压力，以及十字架杀死的工作，所得对基督之丰富的经历，而在新约执事身上产生的─林后一8，四8~12：
VI.　The ministry of the new covenant is produced in the new covenant ministers by the experiences of the riches of Christ gained through sufferings, consuming pressures, and the killing work of the cross—2 Cor. 1:8; 4:8-12:
一　新约的执事是在基督凯旋行列中的俘虏，从一处到另一处，散放基督的馨香之气，显出祂凯旋的荣耀─林后二14~15。
A.　The ministers of the new covenant are the captives of Christ in the train of His triumph, scattering the fragrance of Christ from place to place for His triumphant glory—2 Cor. 2:14-15.
二　新约的执事是基督的大使，借着完成两步的和好职事，而成就神的定旨─林后五18~20：
B.　The ministers of the new covenant are the ambassadors of Christ to accomplish God's purpose by carrying out the ministry of reconciliation in two steps—2 Cor. 5:18-20:
1　第一步是使罪人脱离罪与神和好。
1.　The first step is to reconcile sinners to God from sin.
2　第二步是使活在天然生命中的信徒脱离肉体与神和好。
2.　The second step is to reconcile the believers living in the natural life to God from the flesh.
柒　新约的执事借着适应一切的生命，完成新约惟一的职事─林后六1：
VII.　The ministers of the new covenant carry out the unique ministry of the new covenant by an all-fitting life—2 Cor. 6:1:
一　新约职事的功用，是将生命分赐给别人─林后四12。
A.　The function of the ministry of the new covenant is to impart life to others—2 Cor. 4:12.
二　新约职事的功用，是将恩典供应给圣徒─林后一15，四15，六1。
B.　The function of the ministry of the new covenant is to supply grace to the saints—2 Cor. 1:15; 4:15; 6:1.
三　新约职事的功用，是将经过过程并终极完成的三一神，分赐到信徒里面─林后十三14。
C.　The function of the ministry of the new covenant is to dispense the processed and consummated Triune God into the believers—2 Cor. 13:14.
四　新约职事的功用，是用赐生命的灵作素质，书写基督的活信─林后三1~6：
D.　The function of the ministry of the new covenant is to write living letters of Christ with the life-giving Spirit as the essence—2 Cor. 3:1-6:
1　这些信是用基督为内容所写，以传输并表现基督。
1.　The letters are composed of Christ as the content to convey and express Christ.
2　使徒将基督这赐生命的灵写在圣徒心上，使他们成为基督的信。
2.　The apostles inscribe Christ as the life-giving Spirit in the hearts of the saints to make them letters of Christ.
捌　新约职事惟一的目标，是要建造基督的身体，终极完成新耶路撒冷：
VIII.　The unique goal of the ministry of the new covenant is to build up the Body of Christ to consummate the New Jerusalem:
一　这惟一的职事使信徒在生命、性情和彰显上与神一式一样─林后三3，6，五21，三18。
A.　The unique ministry makes the believers the same as God in life, nature, and expression—2 Cor. 3:3, 6; 5:21; 3:18.
二　这惟一的职事将信徒合并到基督里，为着完成宇宙神人二性的合并：
B.　The unique ministry incorporates the believers into Christ for the consummation of the universal divine-human incorporation:
1　信徒得以坚固的联于基督，好经历那灵的膏抹、印涂和作质─林后一21~22。
1.　The believers are firmly attached unto Christ to experience the Spirit's anointing, sealing, and pledging—2 Cor. 1:21-22.
2　信徒得以与神完全和好，成为新耶路撒冷，就是扩大和终极的至圣所─林后五20，启二一16。
2.　The believers are fully reconciled to God to become the New Jerusalem, the enlarged and consummate Holy of Holies—2 Cor. 5:20; Rev. 21:16.
