Scripture Reading: Gen. 2:9; John 14:6; 1 John 5:11-12; Rev. 22:1-2, 14
壹 照着神的生命神圣、永远的性质,神的生命是惟一的生命;惟有神的生命才算为生命─约一4,十10下,十一25,十四6:
I. According to the divine and eternal nature of the life of God, God's life is the unique life; only the life of God can be counted as life—John 1:4; 10:10b; 11:25; 14:6:
一 神圣的生命可视为神首要且基本的属性─弗四18,约五26,约壹五11~12,罗八2。
A. The divine life may be considered the first and the basic attribute of God— Eph. 4:18; John 5:26; 1 John 5:11-12; Rom. 8:2.
二 生命就是神的内容和神的流出;神的内容是神的所是,神的流出是祂自己作生命分赐给我们─弗四18,启二二1。
B. Life is the content of God and the flowing out of God; God's content is God's being, and God's flowing out is the impartation of Himself as life to us—Eph.4:18; Rev. 22:1.
三 生命就是基督,生命是基督活在我们里面,并从我们活出来─约十四6,西三4,加二20,腓一21上。

D. Life is the Holy Spirit—John 14:16-17; 1 Cor. 15:45b; Rom. 8:2; 2 Cor. 3:6.
五 生命乃是经过过程并终极完成的三一神分赐到我们里面,并活在我们里面─约一14,七37~39,二十22,罗八10,6,11。
E. Life is the processed and consummated Triune God dispensed into us and living in us—John 1:14; 7:37-39; 20:22; Rom. 8:10, 6, 11.
贰 为着成就神的定旨并完成祂的恢复,神的心意是要作祂选民活水的泉源,使他们经历祂、享受祂并彰显祂─诗三六9上,耶二13:
II. For the fulfillment of His purpose and for the carrying out of His recovery, God's intention is to be the fountain of living waters to His chosen people so that they may experience Him, enjoy Him, and express Him—Psa. 36:9a; Jer. 2:13:
一 借着将祂自己分赐到我们里面作生命,神正在完成祂的经纶,以成就祂的定旨,使祂得着祂自己团体的彰显,直到永远─约七37~39,罗八11,启二一9~10,二二1~2,14。
A. By dispensing Himself into us as life, God is accomplishing His economy in order to fulfill His purpose to have a corporate expression of Himself for eternity— John 7:37-39; Rom. 8:11; Rev. 21:9-10; 22:1-2, 14.
二 主恢复祂的子民,乃是借着神圣的生命─结三四11~31,三六21~三七14。
B. The Lord's recovery of His people is by the divine life—Ezek. 34:11-31; 36:21— 37:14.
叁 照着神的经纶,为着成就神永远的定旨,神原初的心意是要人吃生命树─创一26,二9,启二二1~2:
III. God's original intention according to His economy for the fulfillment of His eternal purpose was that man should eat of the tree of life—Gen. 1:26; 2:9; Rev. 22:1-2:
一 我们需要有异象,看见圣经向我们陈明一幅图画,显示神在基督里乃是生命树,作我们的食物;这就是为什么在圣经的开始和末了都题到生命树─创二9,启二二14:
A. We need a vision to see that the Bible presents us a picture of God in Christ as the tree of life to be our food; this is why the tree of life is mentioned both at the beginning and end of the Bible—Gen. 2:9; Rev. 22:14:
1 神按着祂的形像,照着祂的样式造人,目的是要人接受祂作生命,并彰显祂一切的属性─创一26~27,二9。
1. God's purpose in the creation of man in His image and according to His likeness was that man would receive Him as life and express Him in all His attributes—Gen. 1:26-27; 2:9.
2 生命树表征三一神在基督里,将自己以食物的形态,分赐到祂所拣选的人里面作生命─9节,约十一25,十五1。
2. The tree of life signifies the Triune God in Christ to dispense Himself into His chosen people as life in the form of food—v. 9; John 11:25; 15:1.
二 我们需要认识善恶知识树的意义,并完全从善恶知识树转向生命树─创二9:
B. We need to know the significance of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and turn absolutely from this tree to the tree of life—Gen. 2:9:
1 善恶知识树表征撒但对人乃是死亡的源头─来二14。
1. The tree of the knowledge of good and evil signifies Satan as the source of death to man—Heb. 2:14.
2 善恶知识树也表征神以外一切的事物;任何不是神自己的事物,包括善的,甚至合乎圣经及宗教的事物,都会被那狡猾者撒但所利用,将死亡带进召会─太十六18,箴十八21。
2. The tree of the knowledge of good and evil also signifies all things apart from God, for anything that is not God Himself, including good things and even scriptural and religious things, can be utilized by Satan, the subtle one, to bring death into the church—Matt. 16:18; Prov. 18:21.
3 我们不应该顾到善恶,乃应该顾到生命─约四10~14,20~21,23~24,八3~9,九1~3,十一20~27。
3. We should care not for good and evil but for life—John 4:10-14, 20-21, 23-24; 8:3-9; 9:1-3; 11:20-27.
4 辨识一件事最好的办法,乃是按着生命或死亡来辨识;我们必须学习凭生命和死亡来辨识,拒绝任何剥夺我们对基督作生命之经历的传讲,而接受主真正的职事;主真正的职事总是加强我们经历并享受基督作我们生命的供应─罗八6,林后十一3。
4. The best way to discern a matter is to discern according to life or death; we must learn to discern by life and death, rejecting any speaking that deprives us of the experience of Christ as life but receiving the genuine ministry of the Lord, which always strengthens us in the experience and enjoyment of Christ as our life supply—Rom. 8:6; 2 Cor. 11:3.
肆 在召会生活中,我们需要凭生命的感觉而活;生命的感觉就是在我们里面之神圣生命的感觉、知觉─罗八6,弗四18~19:
IV. In the church life we need to live by the sense of life—the feeling, the consciousness, of the divine life within us—Rom. 8:6; Eph. 4:18-19:
一 生命感觉的源头是神圣的生命、生命的律、圣灵、住在我们里面的基督、以及在我们里面运行的神─罗八2,10~11,腓二13。
A. The source of the sense of life is the divine life, the law of life, the Holy Spirit, Christ abiding in us, and God operating in us—Rom. 8:2, 10-11; Phil. 2:13.
二 生命的感觉引导我们,支配我们,管制我们,并指引我们,使我们知道我们是活在神圣的生命里,或活在天然的生命里,是活在肉体里,或活在灵里─罗八6。
B. The sense of life guides us, governs us, controls us, and directs us, causing us to know whether we are living in the divine life or in the natural life and whether we are living in the flesh or in the spirit—Rom. 8:6.
伍 我们需要胜过死亡对召会的攻击,并在基督复活的生命里建造基督的身体─太十六18,约十一25,弗一22~23,四16:
V. We need to be victorious over the attack of death upon the church and build up the Body of Christ in the resurrection life of Christ—Matt. 16:18; John 11:25; Eph. 1:22-23; 4:16:
一 借着我们灵里基督复活的生命,我们就能胜过死亡对召会的攻击─太十六18,徒二24,提后一10:
A. By the resurrection life of Christ in our spirit, we can be victorious over the attack of death upon the church—Matt. 16:18; Acts 2:24; 2 Tim. 1:10:
1 自伊甸园开始,神与撒但的争执,一直就是在死亡与生命这个问题上─罗八6,10~11,来二15。
1. From Eden onward, God's controversy with Satan has been on the issue of death and life—Rom. 8:6, 10-11; Heb. 2:15.
2 马太十六章十八节给我们看见,召会所受的攻击是从什么源头而来─“阴间的门”,就是死亡;撒但特别的目的,乃是在召会里散布死亡;他最害怕的,就是召会抵挡他死亡的权势─启二8,10~11。
2. Matthew 16:18 shows us from what source the attack upon the church will come—"the gates of Hades," that is, death; Satan's special object is to spread death within the church, and his greatest fear with regard to the church is her resistance to his power of death—Rev. 2:8, 10-11.
二 我们应该操练灵,在基督复活的生命里建造基督的身体─弗二6,21~22,四16,启一18,二8,腓三10:
B. We should be exercised in spirit to build up the Body of Christ in the resurrection life of Christ—Eph. 2:6, 21-22; 4:16; Rev. 1:18; 2:8; Phil. 3:10:
1 召会作为基督的身体,其性质乃是复活;复活的实际乃是基督这赐生命的灵─约十一25,徒二24,弗一19~23,林前十五45下。
1. The nature of the church as the Body of Christ is resurrection, and the reality of resurrection is Christ as the life-giving Spirit—John 11:25; Acts 2:24; Eph. 1:19-23; 1 Cor. 15:45b.
2 当我们凭我们里面神圣的生命而活时,我们就在复活里过生活,使基督的身体得着建造─腓三10~11,弗四15~16,西二19,三15。
2. When we live by the divine life within us, we are living a life in resurrection for the building up of the Body of Christ—Phil. 3:10-11; Eph. 4:15-16;Col. 2:19; 3:15.
