C.　The kingdom of God is the Savior, the Lord Jesus, as the seed of life sown into His believers and developing into a realm over which God can rule as His kingdom in His divine life—Luke 17:20-21; Mark 4:3, 26:

E.　The kingdom of God as the reign of God is a realm not only of the divine dominion but also of the divine species, in which are all the divine things—John 3:3, 5:
1　在约翰三章，神的国指神的种类，多过于指神的掌权。
1.　In John 3 the kingdom of God refers more to the species of God than to the reign of God.

1　黑暗就是撒但作为死亡，因此蒙拯救脱离黑暗的权势，乃是蒙拯救脱离掌死权的魔鬼─来二14，约十七15。
1.　Darkness is Satan as death; thus, to be delivered out of the authority of darkness is to be delivered from the Devil, who has the might of death— Heb. 2:14; John 17:15.
2　我们已经借着基督的死，并借着在复活里基督的生命，蒙拯救脱离魔鬼撒但─西一13，二14~15，约五24。

4.　Whenever we are in the natural man or live in the self, we are under the control of the authority of darkness; the only thing we can do is go to the cross and allow the cross to deal with every aspect of the satanic authority of darkness—Matt. 16:24; Col. 3:5-9.
二　子的国乃是基督的权柄─启十一15，十二10：
B.　The kingdom of the Son is the authority of Christ—Rev. 11:15; 12:10:
1　神的儿子是神圣生命的具体化身和彰显;因此，子的国乃是生命的范围─约壹五11~12，约一4。
1.　The Son of God is the embodiment and expression of the divine life; hence, the kingdom of the Son is a realm of life—1 John 5:11-12; John 1:4.
2　我们所迁入的国，是神爱子的国;这生命的范围乃是在爱里，不是在惧怕里─西一13。
2.　The kingdom into which we have been transferred is the kingdom of the Son of God's love; this realm of life is in love, not in fear—Col. 1:13.

b.　The Son, as the embodiment of the divine life, is the object of the Father's love—17:5: (1)　The divine life embodied in the Son is given to us in the divine love. (2)　The object of the divine love becomes to us the embodiment of life in the divine love with the authority in resurrection; this is the kingdom of the Son of the Father's love.
5　迁入父爱子的国里，乃是迁入对我们是生命的子里─约壹五12：
5.　To be transferred into the kingdom of the Son of the Father's love is to be transferred into the Son, who is life to us—1 John 5:12:
a　在复活里的子，现今是赐生命的灵;祂在祂复活的生命里带着爱管理我们─彼前一3，罗六4~5，林前十五45下。
a.　The Son in resurrection is now the life-giving Spirit, and He rules us in His resurrection life with love—1 Pet. 1:3; Rom. 6:4-5; 1 Cor. 15:45b.

6　虽然父爱子的国包括今世、来世和永世，但歌罗西一章十三节所强调的是在今世，就是在召会时代里，父爱子的国：─引用经文
6.　Although the kingdom of the Son of the Father's love comprises the present age, the coming age, and the eternal age, the emphasis in Colossians 1:13 is on the kingdom of the Son of the Father's love in this age, the age of the church:
a　因为父喜悦祂的儿子，父爱子的国就是喜乐的事，喜悦的事─太三17，十七5。
a.　Because the Father delights in His Son, the kingdom of the Son of the Father's love is a pleasant thing, a matter of delight—Matt. 3:15; 17:5.
b　召会生活今天乃是父爱子的国，与神的儿子一样，对父神是可喜悦的。
b.　The church life today is the kingdom of the Son of the Father's love, which is as delightful to God the Father as the Son of God is.
c　父神喜爱国度可喜悦的部分，正如祂喜爱自己可喜悦的儿子一样。
