Message Eight The Body of Christ— the Means of the Divine Administration
读经：林前十二12~27
Scripture Reading: 1 Cor. 12:12-27
壹　使徒对付蒙头，与头有关;他对付主的晚餐（主的筵席），与身体有关─林前十一3，17~34：
I.　The apostle's dealing with head covering concerns the Head; his dealing with the Lord's supper (the Lord's table) concerns the Body—11:3, 17-34:
一　关于基督作头，代表神并由男人所代表，我们必须遵守神所命定神圣行政的次序，没有任何紊乱。
A.　Regarding the headship of Christ, which represents God and is represented by man, we must keep the divine governmental order ordained by God, without any disorder.
二　关于基督的身体，我们必须正确的受使徒教训的规律，没有任何混乱和分裂。
B.　Regarding the Body of Christ, we must be properly regulated by the apostle's instruction, without any confusion or division.
三　头是基督，身体是召会;（3，一2，十二27;）基督与召会这二者，乃是使徒对付混乱、无次序的召会，控制并指导的因素：─引用经文
C.　The Head is Christ, and the Body is the church (v. 3; 1:2; 12:27); these two—Christ and the church—are the controlling and directing factors of the apostle's dealing with the confused and disorderly church:
1　从一至十章，保罗对付召会的难处，首先强调基督是神的中心，也是我们的分。
1.　In chapters one through ten Paul deals with the church's problems f irst by stressing Christ as God's center and our portion.
2　从十一至十六章，他强调召会是神的目标，也是我们的关切。
2.　In chapters eleven through sixteen he emphasizes the church as God's goal and our concern.
3　在完成神新约经纶的行政上，基督与召会二者都是极其重要的。
3.　Both Christ and the church are crucial to the carrying out of God's administration in His New Testament economy.
贰　基督惟一奥秘的身体，乃是神执行祂行政的凭借─罗十二4~5，弗一22~23，林前十二12~13，25，27，十一29：
II.　The unique mystical Body of Christ is the means for God to carry out His administration—Rom. 12:4-5; Eph. 1:22-23; 1 Cor. 12:12-13, 25, 27; 11:29:
一　基督奥秘的身体，与神的行政有彻底、绝对的关系;若没有基督奥秘的身体，神就没有凭借、没有路执行祂的行政。
A.　The mystical Body of Christ is thoroughly and absolutely related to God's administration; apart from the mystical Body of Christ, God has no means, no way, to carry out His administration.
二　神永远的定旨是要得着一班得救、重生的人，他们成为一，作生机的身体，执行祂的行政─弗三10~11，四16，林前一2，十二12~13，27。
B.　God's eternal purpose is to have a group of saved and regenerated people who have become one to be an organic Body to carry out His administration—Eph. 3:10-11; 4:16; 1 Cor. 1:2; 12:12-13, 27.
三　基督奥秘的身体─召会─是为着基督在地上的行动;如今头正借着身体施行神的行政─十一3，十二12。
C.　The mystical Body of Christ, the church, is for Christ's move on earth; the Head is now operating God's administration through the Body—11:3; 12:12.
四　分裂在执行神行政的事上，破坏基督奥秘的身体─一2，10~13，十二25，27：
D.　Divisions damage the mystical Body of Christ with respect to the carrying out of God's administration— 1:2, 10-13; 12:25, 27:
1　撒但狡猾的诡计是要使那身体支离破碎。
1.　Satan's subtle device is to cut the Body into pieces.
2　历世纪以来，神一直无法执行祂的行政，因为这事惟一的凭借─基督奥秘的身体─由于分裂，已经支离破碎了。
2.　For centuries God has not been able to carry out His administration because the unique means for this—the mystical Body of Christ—has been cut into pieces through division.
3　执行神圣的行政需要惟一的身体，奥秘的身体，因着我们领悟这点，我们就恨恶分裂，并绝对反对分裂─一10，十二25，徒二十30，罗十六17~18，多三10。
3.　Because we realize that the carrying out of the divine administration requires the unique Body, the mystical Body, we hate division and are absolutely opposed to it—1:10; 12:25; Acts 20:30; Rom. 16:17-18; Titus 3:10.
4　为了使神的行政得以执行，我们必须顾到基督惟一奥秘身体的一;（弗四3，13，约十七21~23;）有这样的关切，会保守我们在身体里，并使我们免于任何分裂。─引用经文
4.　In order that God's administration may be carried out, we must care for the oneness of the unique mystical Body of Christ (Eph. 4:3, 13; John 17:21-23); having such a concern will preserve us in the Body and keep us from any division.
五　我们借着分辨那身体，而顾到神的行政─林前十一29：
E.　We take care of God's administration by discerning the Body—1 Cor. 11:29:
1　要分辨那身体，首先要领悟基督只有一个奥秘的身体。
1.　To discern the Body is f irst to realize that Christ has only one mystical Body.
2　我们对主的晚餐若有正确的领会，就不会因着任何事而分裂;反之，我们会留在基督惟一奥秘的身体里，这身体乃是基督尽祂天上的职事，以完成神圣行政的凭借。
2.　If we have the proper understanding of the Lord's supper, we shall not be divided by anything; rather, we shall remain in the unique mystical Body of Christ, the means for Christ to carry out His heavenly ministry for the accomplishment of the divine administration.
叁　基督的身体乃是团体的基督─十二12~13：
III.　The Body of Christ is the corporate Christ—12:12-13:
一　十二节的“那基督”，（直译，）不是指个人的基督，乃是指团体的基督，身体基督：
A.　In verse 12 the Christ refers not to the individual Christ but to the corporate Christ, the Body-Christ:
1　团体的基督是由基督自己作头，召会作祂的身体，连同所有信徒作肢体所组成的。
1.　The corporate Christ is composed of Christ Himself as the Head and the church as His Body with all the believers as His members.
2　所有在基督里的信徒，都与祂有生机的联结，（罗十二4~5，）并都是用祂的生命和元素所构成的，（西三4，11，）成为祂的身体这个生机体，以彰显祂;因此，基督不仅是头，也是身体。─引用经文
2.　All the believers in Christ are organically united with Him (Rom. 12:4-5) and constituted with His life and element (Col. 3:4, 11) and have thus become His Body, an organism to express Him; hence, Christ is not only the Head but also the Body.
3　圣经把基督与召会看作是一个奥秘的基督─徒九4~5：
3.　The Bible considers Christ and the church as one mysterious Christ—Acts 9:4-5:
a　基督是这奥秘基督的头，召会是这奥秘基督的身体;这两者联合成为这一个奥秘的基督─弗五32。
a.　Christ is the Head of this mysterious Christ, and the church is the Body of this mysterious Christ; the two have been joined to become the one mysterious Christ—Eph. 5:32.
b　在所有时间和空间里得救的人，加在一起就成为这奥秘基督的身体。
b.　All the saved ones in all times and all space added together become the Body of this mysterious Christ.
二　因着基督的实际是那灵，被基督构成祂身体的路乃是喝那灵─林前十二13：
B.　Because the reality of Christ is the Spirit, the way to be constituted with Christ to be His Body is to drink the Spirit—1 Cor. 12:13:
1　受浸成了一个身体，使我们都有地位喝一位灵。
1.　The baptism into the one Body has positioned us all to drink one Spirit.
2　借着喝那灵，我们就被构成身体。
2.　By drinking of the Spirit we are constituted to be the Body.
肆　在保守基督身体的一上，相调是最有帮助的─24~25节：
IV.　Blending is the most helpful thing in keeping the oneness of the Body—vv. 24-25:
一　基督宇宙的身体乃是众地方召会在神圣生命里的相调─西四15~16，启一4，11，二7上。
A.　The universal Body of Christ is a blending of all the local churches in the divine life—Col. 4:15-16; Rev. 1:4, 11; 2:7a.
二　宇宙相调的目标乃是基督身体的实际。
B.　The goal of the universal blending is the reality of the Body of Christ.
三　相调要求我们被除去，凭着那灵分赐基督，并为着祂身体的缘故作每件事。
C.　Blending requires us to be crossed out and be by the Spirit to dispense Christ and do everything for the sake of His Body.
四　相调的意思是，我们总该停下来与别人交通;交通乃是把个人的利益放在一边，并联于别人，为着某一共同的目的─建造基督的身体，以终极完成新耶路撒冷─约壹一3，弗四16，启二一2。
D.　Blending means that we should always stop to fellowship with others; to have fellowship is to put away our private interests and join with others for a common purpose—the building up of the Body of Christ to consummate the New Jerusalem—1 John 1:3; Eph. 4:16; Rev. 21:2.
五　在属灵的元素上，众召会都该相调为一。
E.　In the spiritual element all the churches should be blended together as one.
伍　一个身体就是一个神的召会，在许多地方上显为许多地方召会─弗一22，林前十32中，一2，十二27，启一4，11：
V.　The one Body is the one church of God, manifested in many localities as many local churches—Eph. 1:22; 1 Cor. 10:32b; 1:2; 12:27; Rev. 1:4, 11:
一　众地方召会在存在上，有许多个，但在元素上，仍然是宇宙的一个身体─弗四4。
A.　The local churches are many in existence but are still one Body universally in element—Eph. 4:4.
二　众地方召会在宇宙一面、在道理一面、在实行一面，都是一个身体，也应当是一个身体─林前四17，七17，十一16，十四34，十六1。
B.　All the local churches are and should be one Body universally, doctrinally, and practically—1 Cor. 4:17; 7:17; 11:16; 14:33; 16:1.
