第一篇　基督身体一的异象
Message One The Vision of the Oneness of the Body of Christ
读经：弗四1~6，约十七21~22，徒一14，罗十六7
Scripture Reading: Eph. 4:1-6; John 17:21-22; Acts 1:14; Rom. 16:7
壹　我们需要看见基督的身体是独一无二的：
I.　We need to see the uniqueness of the Body of Christ:
一　在宇宙中只有一个基督的身体─弗四4上，二19，提前三15，弗五23~25，二15，西三11，林前十二12。
A.　There is one Body in the universe—Eph. 4:4a; 2:19; 1 Tim. 3:15; Eph. 5:23-25; 2:15; Col. 3:11; 1 Cor. 12:12.
二　这身体的一是由每个地方召会在各地方所保守并彰显─徒八1上，十三1上，启一11。
B.　The oneness of this Body is kept and expressed by each local church in its locality—Acts 8:1a; 13:1a; Rev. 1:11.
贰　我们需要看见召会一的基础：
II.　We need to see the base of the oneness of the church:
一　这个一的基础，就是我们基督徒信仰的七个因素─弗四4~6，13：
A.　The base of this oneness is the seven factors of our Christian faith—Eph. 4:4-6, 13:
1　第一个因素是一个身体，为著作三一神具体化身之基督团体的彰显。
1.　The first factor is the one Body for the corporate expression of Christ as the embodiment of the Triune God.
2　第二个因素是一位灵，作基督身体的素质。
2.　The second factor is the one Spirit as the essence of the Body of Christ.
3　第三个因素是一个荣耀的盼望，为着我们身体的得赎。
3.　The third factor is the one hope of glory for the redemption of our body.
4　第四个因素是一位主，作基督身体的元素。
4.　The fourth factor is the one Lord as the element of the Body of Christ.
5　第五个因素是一信，将我们联于基督。
5.　The fifth factor is the one faith, uniting us to Christ.
6　第六个因素是一浸，使我们与亚当和亚当的世界分开。
6.　The sixth factor is the one baptism, separating us from Adam and the Adamic world.
7　第七个因素是一位神与父，覆庇我们，照顾我们，并与我们同在。
7.　The seventh factor is the one God and Father, overshadowing us, taking care of us, and being with us.
二　这个一的基础，就是那灵的一─弗四3节。
B.　The base of this oneness is the oneness of the Spirit—4:3.
三　这个一的基础，就是神圣三一的一─约十七21~22。
C.　The base of this oneness is the oneness of the Divine Trinity—John 17:21-22.
四　这个一的基础，就是主所祷告的一：
D.　The base of this oneness is the oneness for which the Lord prayed:
1　这个一是在父的名里，藉着永远的生命而有的─约十七6~13节。
1.　This oneness is in the Father's name by the eternal life—vv. 6-13.
2　这个一是在三一神里，藉着圣言的圣别而有的─约十七14~21节。
2.　This oneness is in the Triune God through sanctification by the holy word—vv. 14-21.
3　这个一是在神圣的彰显里，为着三一神的彰显─约十七22~24节。
3.　This oneness is in the divine glory for the expression of the Triune God— vv. 22-24.
叁　一的实行就是同心合意─徒一14，二46，四24，五12，十五25，罗十五6。
III.　The practice of the oneness is the one accord—Acts 1:14; 2:46; 4:24; 5:12; 15:25; Rom. 15:6.
肆　使徒劝勉我们要保守那灵的一─弗四1~3。
IV.　The apostle exhorted us to keep the oneness of the Spirit—Eph. 4:1-3.
伍　分裂是异端的、宗派的─加五20下~21上：
V.　Division is heretical, sectarian—Gal. 5:20b-21a:
一　分裂将基督的身体肢解，并且在使徒眼中是可厌的─林前一10~13上，三3~4，十一17~20。
A.　It dismembers the Body of Christ and is repulsive in the eyes of the apostles— 1 Cor. 1:10-13a; 3:3-4; 11:17-20.
二　使徒坚决定罪那否认基督在祂神性或人性上之身位的异端─约壹二22，四2~4，约贰7，9~11，彼后二1。
B.　The apostles were strong in condemning the heresies, denying the person of Christ in His divinity or in His humanity—1 John 2:22; 4:2-4; 2 John 7, 9-11; 2 Pet. 2:1.
陆　使徒嘱咐我们要对付分裂、结党的人─罗十六17，多三10。
VI.　The apostle charged us to deal with the divisive, sectarian ones—Rom. 16:17; Titus 3:10.
