Message One The Wind, the Cloud, the Fire, and the Electrum and the Coordination of the Four Living Creatures for God's Expression, Move, and Administration
读经：结一4~16、26
Scripture Reading: Ezek. 1:4-16, 26
壹　每一个正常基督徒的属灵历史，都该是经历神作风、云、火、金银合金这一个持续不断的循环─结一4：
I.　The spiritual history of every normal Christian should be a continual cycle involving the experience of God as the wind, the cloud, the fire, and the electrum—Ezek. 1:4:
一　每当神眷临我们，复兴我们，祂的灵就象一阵大风吹在我们身上，将属灵的暴风带进我们的生活、工作和召会里，使我们不满足，关心我们属灵的情形，并使我们在属灵的生活上有转变─ 4节。
A.　Whenever God visits us and revives us, His Spirit blows on us like a mighty wind to bring a spiritual storm into our life, into our work, and into our church, causing us to be dissatisfied and concerned about our spiritual condition and to have a turn in our spiritual life—v. 4.
二　云表征神作为那灵与祂的百姓同住，遮盖他们，为要照顾他们，向他们施恩─ 4节，出十三21，四十34~35。
B.　The cloud is a figure of God as the Spirit abiding with His people and covering them in order to care for them and show favor to them—v. 4; Exo. 13:21; 40:34-35.
三　火表征神焚烧、圣别的能力;圣灵的火越在我们里面焚烧，我们就越被炼净、蒙光照─结一4，申四24，来十二29。
C.　The fire signifies God's burning and sanctifying power; the more the fire of the Holy Spirit burns in us, the more we are purified and enlightened—Ezek. 1:4; Deut. 4:24; Heb. 12:29.
四　金银合金是由金和银的元素所组成，表征羔羊神，就是救赎的神─结一4，启二二1：
D.　The electrum, composed of the elements of gold and silver, signifies the Lamb-God, the redeeming God—Ezek. 1:4; Rev. 22:1:
1　我们越经历风、云、火，就越有金银合金构成在我们里面，使我们成为满了三一神并彰显祂荣耀的人─弗三16~17、21。
1.　The more we experience the wind, the cloud, and the fire, the more the electrum is constituted into our being, making us a people who are filled with the Triune God and who manifest His glory—Eph. 3:16-17, 21.
2　属灵的事故只要与吹动的风、遮盖的云和炼净的火有关，其结果总是光耀的金银合金─救赎之神的辉煌彰显。
2.　The issue of the spiritual transactions involving the blowing wind, the cover?ing cloud, and the purifying fire is the glowing electrum—the radiant expression of the redeeming God.
贰　我们越经历神作吹动的风、覆庇的云、焚烧的火和光耀的金银合金，我们就越被神圣的生命点活，成为四活物─结一5上：
II.　The more we experience God as the blowing wind, the overshadowing cloud, the burning fire, and the glowing electrum, the more we are enlivened with the divine life to become the four living creatures—Ezek. 1:5a:
一　四活物不算为个别的四个，乃算为一组，一个实体。
A.　The four living creatures are reckoned not as individuals but as a group, one entity.
二　四活物有人的样式，宝座上的神也有人的样式，这指明神的中心思想和祂的安排都与人有关─5节下、26节，创一26，诗八4~8：
B.　That the four living creatures bear the likeness of a man and that God on the throne also bears the appearance of a man indicates that God's central thought and His arrangement are related to man—vv. 5b, 26; Gen. 1:26; Psa. 8:4-8:
1　根据以西结一章所揭示的异象，人是神彰显祂荣耀的凭借，是神在地上行动的凭借，也是神在宝座上行政管理的凭借。
1.　According to the vision unveiled in Ezekiel 1, man is the means for God to manifest His glory, for God to move on the earth, and for God to administrate on the throne.
2　神用风、云、火、金银合金，点活我们，好得着人作祂彰显、行动和行政的凭借。
2.　God uses the wind, the cloud, the fire, and the electrum to enliven us in order to gain man as the means for His manifestation, move, and administration.
叁　以西结一章十一节下半至十四节传达一幅活物配搭的清楚图画，就是一幅正确召会生活连同基督身体众肢体配搭的图画：─引用经文
III.　Ezekiel 1:11b-14 conveys a clear picture of the coordination of the living creatures—a portrait of the proper church life with the coordination of the members of the Body of Christ:
一　活物的两个翅膀（鹰的翅膀）相接，是为着他们在配搭里团体的行动─ 11节下：
A.　The joining of the two wings (eagle's wings) of the living creatures is for their corporate moving in coordination—v. 11b:
1　鹰的翅膀表征应用在我们身上之神的恩典、力量和能力─出十九4，赛四十31，林后一12，四7，十二9。
1.　The wings of an eagle signify the grace, strength, and power of God applied to us—Exo. 19:4; Isa. 40:31; 2 Cor. 1:12; 4:7; 12:9.
2　鹰的翅膀是他们配搭并且行动如一的凭借;他们的配搭不在自己里面，乃在神里面，并凭着神圣的恩典、力量和能力─参出二六26~29。
2.　The eagle's wings are the means by which the living creatures are coordinated and move as one; their coordination is not in themselves but in God and by the divine grace, strength, and power—cf. Exo. 26:26-29.
二　活物的行动不是个别的，乃是团体的，就是一个配搭之实体的行动;这是召会作为基督身体之配搭的美丽图画;在这身体里每个肢体都有他特别的地位和功用（或职事）─结一12，罗十二4~8，林前十二14~30，弗四7~16。
B.　The move of the living creatures is not individual but corporate, the move of one entity in coordination; this is a beautiful picture of the coordination in the church as the Body of Christ, in which each member has his particular position and function, or ministry—Ezek. 1:12; Rom. 12:4-8; 1 Cor. 12:14-30; Eph. 4:7-16.
三　活物配搭的结果是他们成为烧着的火炭，有圣别的神作为烈火，在他们中间并在他们里面焚烧;宝座上的主和活物都显出火的样子，指明活物是主的彰显─结一13、26，来十二29。
C.　The issue of the coordination of the living creatures is that they become burning coals, with the holy God as a consuming fire burning among them and within them; that both the Lord on the throne and the living creatures have the appear?ance of fire indicates that the living creatures are the expression of the Lord—Ezek. 1:13, 26; Heb. 12:29.
四　活物有正确的配搭，其行动不是行走，乃是奔走;因为他们有能力和冲击力─结一14。
D.　The living creatures, having a proper coordination, will not walk but run, because they have the power and the impact—Ezek. 1:14.
五　作基督身体肢体的信徒配搭的结果，乃是基督团体的彰显、神在地上的行动以及神在宝座上的行政，因而给神有路彰显祂的荣耀，并完成祂永远的定旨和计划─ 4~12、26节。
E.　The coordination of the believers as members of the Body of Christ results in the corporate expression of Christ, in the move of God on the earth, and in the admin-istration of God on the throne, thus affording God a way to manifest His glory and accomplish His eternal purpose and plan—vv. 4-12, 26.
肆　在以西结书，神的经纶与神在祂经纶中的行动，乃是由大轮所表征─15节，弗一10，三9，提前一4：
IV.　In the book of Ezekiel God's economy and God's move in His economy are signified by a great wheel—v. 15; Eph. 1:10; 3:9; 1 Tim. 1:4:
一　这个大轮的轮轴表征基督作神经纶的中心;轮辋表征基督的配偶，就是召会，终极完成于新耶路撒冷;由轮轴伸展到轮辋的轮辐表征作基督肢体的许多信徒─西一15~18，弗五30。
A.　The hub of this great wheel signifies Christ as the center of God's economy; the rim signifies Christ's counterpart, the church, which consummates in the New Jerusalem; and the spokes of the wheel spreading from the hub to the rim signify the many believers as the members of Christ—Col. 1:15-18; Eph. 5:30.
二　在活物旁边，有轮在地上出现，指明神在地上的行动，是随着四活物的配搭─结一15。
B.　The appearing of the wheels on the earth beside the living creatures indicates that God's move on earth follows the coordination of the four living creatures—Ezek. 1:15.
三　轮在活物的四个脸旁，指明我们若要有主的行动，首先必须活出主，彰显主─15节，腓一20~21上。
C.　The wheels being for the four faces of the living creatures indicates that if we would have the Lord's move, we must first live out the Lord, expressing Him—v. 15; Phil. 1:20-21a.
四　四轮都是一个样子，这指明在每一个召会中，主的行动都有同一个样子─林前四17，七17，十一16。
D.　All four wheels have the same appearance; this indicates that the move of the Lord has the same appearance in every church—1 Cor. 4:17; 7:17; 11:16.
五　轮中套轮指明在活物的行动中，有主的行动;内里的轮子（主作轮轴）乃是外在轮子（召会作轮辋）行动能力的源头─结一16。
E.　A wheel within a wheel indicates that in the move of the living creatures there is the move of the Lord; the inner wheel, the Lord as the hub, is the source of the power for the moving of the outer wheel, the church as the rim—Ezek. 1:16.
