第六篇　终极完成新耶路撒冷
Message Six To Consummate the New Jerusalem
壹　基督七倍加强的天上职事乃是为着：
I.　The sevenfold intensified heavenly ministry of Christ is for:
一　产生得胜者─启二7，三12，21。
A.　The producing of the overcomers—Rev. 2:7; 3:12, 21.
二　把基督的新妇完全预备好─启十九7~9。
B.　The complete preparation of the bride for Christ—Rev. 19:7-9.
三　组成新妇军队─启十九11~14，十七14。
C.　The formation of the bridal army—Rev. 19:11-12; 17:14.
四　捆绑撒但─启二十1~3。
D.　The binding of Satan—Rev. 20:1-3.
五　带进基督和神的国─启二十4~6。
E.　The bringing in of the kingdom of Christ and of God—Rev. 20:4-6
六　终极完成新耶路撒冷─启二一2。
F.　The consummation of the New Jerusalem—Rev. 21:2.
贰　新耶路撒冷乃是神永远经纶的终极完成：
II.　The New Jerusalem is the ultimate consummation of God's eternal economy:
一　神只有一个目标─新耶路撒冷。
A.　God has only one goal—the New Jerusalem.
二　圣经开始于一个单独的神─创一1。
B.　The Bible begins with single God—Gen. 1:1.
三　圣经结束于一个团体的大神─新耶路撒冷作神的扩大、扩展和彰显─启二一9~10。
C.　The Bible ends with a great corporate God—the New Jerusalem as God's enlargement, expansion, and expression—Rev. 21:9-10.
叁　召会的堕落，主要的是由于这个事实：几乎所有的基督工人都以新耶路撒冷之外的事物为他们的目标：
III.　The degradation of the church is mainly due to the fact that nearly all Christian workers take something other than the New Jerusalem as their goal:
一　今天大多数基督徒不注重新耶路撒冷，不注重生命树，也不注重生命水的河，反而以许多其他好的事物顶替了新耶路撒冷。
A.　Today the majority of Christianity disregard the New Jerusalem, the tree of life, and the river of water of life and take many other good things as replacements of the New Jerusalem.
二　在召会的堕落下，我们要作得胜者，答应主的呼召，就需要胜过一切顶替新耶路撒冷为目标的事物，而以神永远经纶的目标─新耶路撒冷─为我们独一无二且终极无比的目标─启三12。
B.　To be overcomers answering the Lord's call under the degradation of the church, we need to overcome all things which replace the New Jerusalem as the goal and take the goal of God's eternal economy—the New Jerusalem—as our unique and ultimate goal—Rev. 3:12.
三　我们要喝涌流的神，就是那灵，作我们生命水的河;我们要吃得胜的狮子羔羊作生命树，为我们常新、丰富的供应; 我们也要以三一神作素质、成分、和作法来建造并终极完成新耶路撒冷─启二二1~2，14，五5~6，七17。
C.　We need to drink the flowing God, the Spirit, as our river of water of life; we need to eat the overcoming Lion-Lamb as the tree of life to be our fresh and rich supply; and we need to take the Triune God as the essence, the element, and the way to build and consummate the New Jerusalem—Rev. 22:1-2, 14; 5:5-6; 7:17.
肆　七倍加强赐生命的灵，乃是为着胜过召会的堕落，并且产生得胜者，使基督的身体得以实际的建造起来，以终极完成新耶路撒冷，就是神心愿中独一并永远的目标─启一4，三12，二一2，弗一5，9~11：
IV.　The sevenfold intensified life-giving Spirit is for overcoming the degradation of the church and the producing of the overcomers so that the Body of Christ can be built up in a practical way to consummate the New Jerusalem, which is the unique and eternal goal of God's heart desire—Rev. 1:4; 3:12; 21:2; Eph. 1:5, 9-11:
一　基督在祂加强时期里的职事产生得胜者，以建造基督的身体，终极完成于新耶路撒冷─启三12。
A.　Christ's ministry in the stage of His intensification produces the overcomers to build up the Body of Christ, which consummates in the New Jerusalem—Rev. 3:12.
二　在基督七倍加强的天上职事之下，在神圣奥秘的范围里将有渐熟和熟透，并且基督的身体也要得着建造，以终极完成新耶路撒冷。
B.　Under the sevenfold intensified heavenly ministry of Christ, there will be a maturing and a ripening in the divine and mystical realm, and the Body will be built up to consummate the New Jerusalem.
三　我们若实行三重的工作─一种在成肉体、总括和加强这三个时期的工作─我们所作的就不仅要产生蒙救赎的人，并建立众召会，也要建造基督的身体，终极完成于新耶路撒冷。
C.　If we are carrying out a threefold work—a work in the stage of incarnation, inclusion, and intensification—we will work not only to produce the redeemed ones and to establish churches but also to build up the Body consummating in the New Jerusalem.
伍　至终，基督七倍加强的天上职事，乃是为着在千年国里新耶路撒冷初步的完成，以及在新天新地里新耶路撒冷完满的完成─启二7，二一2。
V.　Ultimately, Christ's sevenfold intensified heavenly ministry is for the initial consummation of the New Jerusalem in the millennium and its full consummation in the new heaven and new earth—Rev. 2:7; 21:2.
陆　基督七倍加强之天上职事最终的结果，乃是在救赎的神与蒙祂救赎的人之间宇宙的罗曼史中，终极完成的灵作经过过程之三一神的终极完成，成了新郎，而得胜圣徒的集大成，成了新妇，作为整本圣经的总结─启二二17。
VI.　The final outcome of Christ's sevenfold intensified heavenly ministry is that the ultimately consummated Spirit as the consummation of the processed Triune God becomes the Bridegroom and the aggregate of the overcoming saints becomes the bride of the universal romance between the redeeming God and His redeemed man as the conclusion of the entire Scripture—Rev. 22:17.
