读经：西三10~11，四7~17，门1~2，10~22
Scripture Reading: Col. 3:10-11; 4:7-18; Philem 1-2, 10-22
壹　在歌罗西四章七至十七节，我们有三章十至十一节所说新人之启示的实例，也有新人交通的记载：
I.　In 4:7-17 we have an illustration of the revelation of the new man given in 3:10-11 and a record of the fellowship of the new man:
一　保罗在四章七至十七节的目的，是要陈明新人生活的一个例证，一幅详细描绘：
A.　Paul's purpose in 4:7-17 is to present an illustration, a detailed portrait, of the living of the new man:
1　尽管国籍、种族、阶级之间有各种的不同，在基督耶稣里所创造之新人的生活，却实际的在地上出现了─弗二10，15。
1.　In spite of all the differences among nationalities, races, and classes, there was on earth in a practical way the living of the one new man created in Christ Jesus—Eph. 2:10, 15.
2　不仅有在各城里的地方召会，还有一个新人真实而实际的显出来了─西三10~11。
2.　There were not merely local churches in various cities—there was one new man in a real and practical way—Col. 3:10-11.
二　使徒的交通给我们看见，在使徒时代所实行的新人，乃是使徒工作的结果，这样的工作鼓励信徒寻求基督，就是新人的构成成分，作他们的享受─一12~13，27，三4，10~11。
B.　The apostle's fellowship shows us that the new man as practiced at the apostle's time was an issue of the apostle's work, which encouraged the believers to seek after Christ, the constituent of the new man, as their enjoyment—1:12-13, 27; 3:4, 10-11.
贰　在保罗里面有新人的感觉，有“新人感”─四7~17：
II.　Within Paul there was the sense, the consciousness, of the new man—4:7-17:
一　在歌罗西的圣徒和保罗，以及那些同他在一起的人，实际上都是一个新人的肢体，有一个新人的感觉：
A.　Both the saints in Colossae and Paul and those with him were members of the new man in actuality and had the consciousness of the new man:
1　保罗题到许多名字，这个事实指明他有新人的感觉─9~17节。
1.　The fact that Paul mentioned many names indicates that he had the consciousness of the new man—vv. 9-17.
2　因为保罗有新人的感觉，他嘱咐推基古要将一切关于他的事，都告诉歌罗西人─7节。
2.　Because Paul had the consciousness of the new man, he charged Tychicus to make known to the Colossians all that concerned him—v. 7.
二　保罗关于念他书信的话，证明在老底嘉的召会和在歌罗西的召会并没有分别;他的话含示交通、合一、和谐、与亲密的接触─16节。
B.　Paul's word regarding the reading of letters proves that there was no difference between the church in Laodicea and the church in Colossae; his word implies fellowship, oneness, harmony, and intimate contact—v. 16.
三　我们需要对召会、身体和新人有感觉：
C.　We need to be conscious of the church, of the Body, and of the new man:
1　使徒行传关于召会的记载，给我们看见信徒是有召会感觉的─五11，八1，3，九31，十一22，26，十二1，5，十三1，十四23，27，十五3~4，22，41，十六5，十八22，二十17，28：
1.　The record in the book of Acts regarding the church reveals that the believers were church-conscious—5:11; 8:1, 3; 9:31; 11:32, 26; 12:1, 5; 13:1; 14:23, 27; 15:3-4, 22, 41; 16:5; 18:22; 20:17, 28:
a　在他们的观念里丝毫没有个人主义;他们作每件事，都带着召会的感觉─二44，四23，32。
a.　In their concept there was nothing of individualism; they did everything with a consciousness of the church—2:44; 4:23, 32.
b　根据使徒行传的记载，我们得着一个原则，就是无论我们作什么，无论我们何时何处相聚，都必须有召会的感觉。
b.　Based upon the record in Acts, we have the principle that whatever we do and whenever and wherever we meet, we must be church conscious.
2　在召会生活中，我们该学习有身体的感觉，有身体感─林前十二12~27：
2.　In the church life, we should learn to have the consciousness of the Body, a Body-consciousness—1 Cor. 12:12-27:
a　我们要与基督身体别的肢体一同生活行动，就需要有身体的感觉。
a.　In order to live and move with other members of the Body, we need to have the consciousness of the Body.
b　无论那里有身体的感觉，个人的意念和行动就灭绝─徒九1~19。
b.　Wherever there is Body-consciousness, individual thought and action are ruled out—Acts 9:1-19.
3　我们该像保罗一样，有新人的感觉，领悟众召会中的众圣徒乃是新人─弗四24，西三10~11：
3.　Like Paul, we should have the consciousness of the new man, realizing that all the saints in all the churches are the new man—Eph. 4:24; Col. 3:10-11:
a　任何召会向其它召会孤立，就是只对自己有感觉，没有整体新人的感觉。
a.　Any church that isolates from other churches has a consciousness only of itself, not a consciousness of the totality of the new man.
b　我们若有新人的感觉，就不该再认为我们本国的召会与别国的召会毫无关系，反而会看见今天所有的召会乃是一个新人─弗二15，启一11，二1上。
b.　If we are conscious of the new man, we will not think that the churches in our country have nothing to do with the churches in other nations; instead, we will realize that all the churches are the one new man today—Eph. 2:15; Rev. 1:11; 2:1a.
c　借着众召会之间的交通，我们就实际的经历新人的生活;这样的生活有基督为其实际─西一12，二16~17，三4。
c.　By means of the traffic among the churches, we experience in a practical way the living of the new man; such a living has Christ as its reality—Col. 1:12; 2:16-17; 3:4.
叁　腓利门书的主题是在新人里信徒身分平等的例证：
III.　The subject of the book of Philemon is an illustration of the believers' equal status in the new man:
一　欧尼西母和腓利门的事例，说明所有的信徒在新人里有平等的身分。
A.　The case of Onesimus and Philemon illustrates that in the new man all the believers have an equal status.
二　这封书信专一的目的，是要给我们看见，基督身体所有的肢体，在神永远的生命和神圣的爱里都是平等的─1，9节。
B.　This Epistle serves the special purpose of showing us the equality in eternal life and divine love of all the members of the Body of Christ—vv. 1, 9.
三　信徒身分的平等，乃是一件爱的事，这爱是从信来的;在新人里，众信徒因信彼此相爱─5节，多三15。
C.　The equal status of the believers is a matter of love, which comes out of faith; in the new man the believers love one another in faith—v. 5; Titus 3:15.
四　因着神圣的出生，以及凭着神圣生命而有的生活，所有在基督里的信徒，在新人中都有平等的身分;这是根据三个事实：
D.　Because of the divine birth and living by the divine life, all the believers in Christ have equal status in the new man; this is based on three facts:
1　基督的死已经废掉不同生活方式的规条，为着创造一个新人─弗二15。
1.　Christ's death has abolished the ordinances of the different ways of life for the creation of the one new man—Eph. 2:15.
2　我们已经浸入基督，在祂里面成为一─加三27~28。
2.　We have all been baptized into Christ and made one in Him—Gal. 3:27-28.
3　在新人里，基督是一切，又在一切之内─西三11。
3.　In the new man Christ is all and in all—Col. 3:11.
五　腓利门书该看作歌罗西四章的延续，并且视为在新人里一切社会阶级该如何放在一边的例证─门1~2，10~22：
E.　The Epistle to Philemon should be regarded as a continuation of Colossians 4 and considered an illustration of how in the new man all social rank is put aside—Philem 1-2, 10-22:
1　信徒中间社会阶级和身分的区别已被废除，因为信徒已由作他们生命之包罗万有的基督所构成─西三4。
1.　The distinction of social rank and status among the believers has been nullified because the believers have been constituted with the all-inclusive Christ, who is their life—Col. 3:4.
2　在腓利门书中，保罗给众召会一个例证，就是奴仆和主人如何被基督所重新构成;结果，他们都是新人的一部分，并且在新人里有平等身分─10~11节。
2.　In this Epistle Paul gives the churches an illustration of how slaves and masters have been reconstituted with Christ; as a result, they are all part of the new man and have an equal status in the new man—vv. 10-11.
3　在神经纶的实行里，吞灭一切社会阶级和种族、国籍之间的不同，乃是要紧的─西三10~11：
3.　In the practice of the economy of God, it is crucial that all social ranks and differences among races and nations are swallowed up—Col. 3:10-11:
a　在新人里，基于肤色的区别已被废掉;保罗厉害的教导这点，我们必须将其视为对真理之完全认识的一部分─提前二4，提后二25，多一1。
a.　In the new man distinctions on the basis of color have been nullified; Paul strongly taught this, and we must consider it part of the full knowledge of the truth—1 Tim. 2:4; 2 Tim. 2:25; Titus 1:1.
b　我们若看见信徒在新人里有平等的身分，我们中间就不会有关于社会阶级、国籍、或种族的难处─林前十二13，加三28，西三10~11。
b.　If we see that the believers have an equal status in the new man, there will be no problems among us concerning social rank, nationality, or race—1 Cor. 12:13; Gal. 3:28; Col. 3:10-11.
