第二篇　基督身体的感觉
Message Two The Consciousness of the Body of Christ
读经：林前十二12~27
Scripture Reading: 1 Cor. 12:12-27
壹　为着主在祂恢复里，在地方一面并宇宙一面的行动，我们都需要在同心合意里有身体的感觉─徒一14，二46，四24，十五25，罗十五6：
I.　For the Lord's move in His recovery both locally and universally, we all need to be Body-conscious in one accord—Acts 1:14; 2:46; 4:24; 15:25; Rom. 15:6:
一　我们应当一直考虑到身体，顾到身体，尊重身体，并且作任何事都要对身体最有益处─林前十二12~27。
A.　We should always consider the Body, care for the Body, honor the Body, and do what is best for the Body—1 Cor. 12:12-27.
二　“关于基督的身体，倪弟兄教导说，凡我们所作的，我们必须考虑众召会有什么感觉。”（召会生活中引起风波的难处，二六页。）
B.　"When Brother Nee taught about the Body he said that with whatever we do, we have to consider how the churches would feel about it" (The Problems Causing the Turmoils in the Church Life, p. 29).
贰　在身体里不能有独立或个人主义，因为我们是肢体，而肢体无法脱离身体而生活─林前十二27节，罗十二5，弗五30：
II.　In the Body there can be no independence or individualism, for we are members, and members cannot live in detachment from the Body—v. 27; Rom. 12:5; Eph. 5:30:
一　人看见自己是身体的肢体，就宝爱身体，看重其他的肢体，看每一个肢体都是不可少的─林前十二15，21，23~24，罗十二3，腓二29，林前十六18，士九9：
A.　Those who see that they are members of the Body treasure the Body and honor the other members, each of whom is indispensable—1 Cor. 12:15, 21, 23-24; Rom. 12:3; Phil. 2:29; 1 Cor. 16:18; Judg. 9:9:
1　我们既是基督身体的肢体，就该对身体有感觉，以头的感觉为自己的感觉─腓一8，林前十二25下~26。
1.　Since we are members of the Body of Christ, we should have a feeling for the Body, taking the feeling of the Head as our own feeling—Phil. 1:8; 1 Cor. 12:25b-26.
2　在身体生活里，我们需要同魂，真正关心基督耶稣的事，就是关于召会同众圣徒的事─腓二2，20~21，一8。
2.　We need to be like-souled in the Body life, genuinely caring for the things of Christ Jesus, the things concerning the church with all the saints—Phil. 2:2, 20-21; 1:8.
二　那里有身体的启示，那里就有身体的感觉;那里有身体的感觉，那里个人主义的想法和行动就除去了：
B.　Wherever there is Body-revelation, there is Body-consciousness, and wherever there is Body-consciousness, individualistic thought and action are ruled out:
1　我们若要认识身体，就不但要蒙拯救脱离我们犯罪与天然的生命，更要蒙拯救脱离个人的生命。
1.　If we want to know the Body, we need deliverance not only from our sinful life and our natural life but also from our individualistic life.
2　父如何与世界相对，那灵如何与肉体相对，主如何与魔鬼相对，照样，身体也与个人相对。
2.　Just as the Father is versus the world, the Spirit is versus the flesh, and the Lord is versus the devil, so also the Body is versus the individual.
3　我们如何不能向头独立，照样也不能向身体独立。
3.　Just as we cannot be independent from the Head, we cannot be independent from the Body.
4　个人主义在神眼中是可恨的：
4.　Individualism is hateful in the sight of God:
a　身体的仇敌是己，那独立的“我”;我们若要在身体里被建造，己就必须被定罪、否认、拒绝并撇弃─太十六21~26。
a.　The enemy of the Body is the self, the independent "I," the independent "me"; if we would be built up in the Body, the self must be condemned, denied, rejected, and renounced—Matt. 16:21-26.
b　我们不仅该倚靠神，也该倚靠身体，倚靠弟兄姊妹─出十七11~13，徒九25，林后十一33。
b.　We should be dependent not only on God, but also on the Body, on the brothers and sisters—Exo. 17:11-13; Acts 9:25; 2 Cor. 11:33.
5　我不知道的，身体里别的肢体知道;我不能看见的，身体里别的肢体能看见;我不能作的，身体里别的肢体能作─林前十二17~22。
5.　What I do not know, another member of the Body will know; what I cannot see, another member of the Body will see; what I cannot do, another member of the Body will do—1 Cor. 12:17-22.
6　我们若拒绝同作肢体者的帮助，就是拒绝基督的帮助;凡是单独的基督徒，迟早都要变得枯干─林前十二12节。
6.　If we refuse the help of our fellow-members, we are refusing the help of Christ; sooner or later all individualistic Christians will dry up—v. 12.
