第六篇 申言─得胜者的功用
Message Six Prophesying—the Function of the Overcomers
读经:林前十四1、4下、12、23~24、31、39
Scripture Reading: 1 Cor. 14:1, 4b, 12, 23-24, 31, 39
壹 在林前十四章里申言是为神和基督说话,并说出神和基督,将神和基督供应并分赐给人:
I. Prophesying in 1 Corinthians 14 is to speak for God and Christ and to speak forth God and Christ, which are to minister and dispense God and Christ to people:
一 申言也是预言,预告,预测。
A. To prophesy is also to foretell, to tell beforehand, to predict.
二 在林前十四章,申言并不包含预言─3、24节。
B. In 1 Corinthians 14 prophesying does not include foretelling—vv. 3, 24.
贰 按林前十四章的方式申言,乃是在召会聚会中实行的,且是为着召会的建造─23~24、4~5节。
II. Prophesying in the way of 1 Corinthians 14 is carried out in the church meetings and is for the building up of the church—vv. 23-24, 4-5.
叁 按林前十四章的方式申言,使有追求的人得以超越,而建造召会─12节。
III. Prophesying in the way of 1 Corinthians 14 causes a seeking one to excel for the building up of the church—v. 12.
肆 所有的信徒都能申言,都有义务申言,并且都应当切慕申言:
IV. All believers have the capacity to prophesy and the obligation to proph?esy, and they should earnestly desire to prophesy:
一 所有的信徒都能申言─“你们都能一个一个地申言”─31、24节。
A. All believers have the capacity to prophesy—"you can all prophesy one by one"—vv. 31, 24.
二 所有的信徒都有义务申言─23~24节,参罗一14~15。
B. All believers have the obligation to prophesy—vv. 23-24; cf. Rom. 1:14-15.
三 所有的信徒都应当追求、寻求并切慕申言─林前十四1、12、39。
C. All believers should pursue, seek, and desire earnestly to prophesy—1 Cor. 14:1, 12, 39.
伍 在林前十四章保罗嘱咐众圣徒都要在召会聚会中申言:
V. In 1 Corinthians 14 Paul charges all the saints to prophesy in the meet?ings of the church:
一 保罗在这章里使用一些动词以鼓励圣徒申言:
A. Paul uses certain verbs in this chapter to encourage the saints to prophesy:
1 追求─1节。
1. Pursue—v. 1.
2 切慕─1、39节。

5. "He is examined by all"—v. 24.
6 “各人或有”─26节。
6. "Each one has"—v. 26.
陆 我们需要看见按林前十四章的方式申言的组成:
VI. We need to see the composition of a prophecy according to the way in 1 Corinthians 14:
一 第一,我们必须有对神、基督和属灵事物的认识与经历─参约壹一3。
A. First, we must have the knowledge and experience of God, Christ, and spiri?tual things—cf. 1 John 1:3.
二 第二,我们必须有发表,将我们对神、基督和属灵事物的认识与经历说出来─林前二13,彼前四11,弗六19~20。
B. Second, we must have the utterance to speak forth what we know and have experienced of God, Christ, and spiritual things—1 Cor. 2:13; 1 Pet. 4:11; Eph. 6:19-20.
三 第三,我们需要有在神圣光照下对我们所处情形和环境的眼光─参玛二7,启一20。
C. Third, we need the sight under the divine enlightenment concerning the sit?uation and environment in which we are—cf. Mal. 2:7; Rev. 1:20.
四 第四,我们需要内住之灵即时的感动,激励我们的灵说话─提后一6~7,四22,林前十四32。
D. Fourth, we need the instant inspiration of the indwelling Spirit that stirs up our spirit to speak—2 Tim. 1:6-7; 4:22; 1 Cor. 14:32.
柒 我们需要看见以利沙伯和马利亚申言的榜样:
VII. We need to see the patterns of prophesying with Elizabeth and Mary:
一 以利沙伯申言的榜样见于路加一章三十九至四十五节:─引用经文
A. The pattern of Elizabeth's prophesying is seen in Luke 1:39-45:
1 这七节经文的内容指明施浸者约翰的母亲以利沙伯,是活在神的面光中并在与主的交通里,她与主有持续不断的交通。
1. The contents of these verses indicate that Elizabeth, the mother of John the Baptist, lived in the presence of God and in the fellowship with the Lord, in a constant, continual communication with the Lord.
2 这几节经文也给我们清楚地看见,她对主在地上的行动有属灵的认识和关切─参44节。
2. These verses also show clearly that she possessed spiritual knowledge and concern for the Lord's move on the earth—cf. v. 44.
3 以利沙伯一听到马利亚的问安,所怀的胎就在腹里跳动,她就在灵里被激动─41、44节。
3. When Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary and the baby leaped within her, she was stirred up in her spirit—vv. 41, 44.
4 她既在灵里被激动,就立刻接受圣灵即时的感动(41下),并借着运用她的灵(42上),得以发表出来:─引用经文
4. Being stirred up in her spirit, she immediately received the instant inspi?ration of the Holy Spirit (v. 41b), and she had the utterance by exercising her spirit (v. 42a):
a 以利沙伯在申言时,祝福那到她这里来的马利亚─42、45节上。
a. In Elizabeth's prophecy, she blessed Mary, the one who had come to her—vv. 42, 45a.
b 借着运用灵,以利沙伯就能认出主的作为─43节。
b. By exercising her spirit, Elizabeth was able to recognize the Lord's doing—v. 43.
c 借着运用灵,以利沙伯就有发表,预言在路加一章三十至三十七节天使对马利亚所说的话必要成就,并印证这话─45节。
c. By exercising her spirit, Elizabeth had the utterance to foretell the completion of the things spoken by the angel to Mary in Luke 1:30-37, to confirm them—v. 45.
二 马利亚申言的榜样,比以利沙伯的更深更高─46~55节:
B. The pattern of Mary's prophesying is deeper and higher than that of Eliza?beth—vv. 46-55:
1 首先马利亚的灵以神她的救主为乐,然后她的魂尊主为大─46~47节。
1. First, her spirit exulted in God her Savior, and then her soul magnified the Lord—vv. 46-47.
2 马利亚申言的发表是根据她对圣经的认识;她的申言都是由引自旧约的话所组成。
2. The utterance of Mary's prophesying was based on her knowledge of the Scriptures; her prophecy was composed of quotations from the Old Testa?ment.
3 马利亚申言的发表是根据她对神的认识和经历─48~50节。
3. The utterance of Mary's prophesying was based on her knowledge and experience of God—vv. 48-50.
4 马利亚申言的发表是根据她对神在人身上所施之对付的认识─51~53节。
4. The utterance of Mary's prophesying was based on her knowledge of God's dealing with people—vv. 51-53.
5 马利亚申言的发表是根据她对神向她列祖所施怜悯的认识─54~55节。
5. The utterance of Mary's prophesying was based on her knowledge of God's merciful doing to her forefathers—vv. 54-55.
捌 我们需要看见申言的基本构成:
VIII. We need to see the basic constituents of a prophecy:
一 第一个基本构成,乃是个人对圣经的认识:
A. The first constituent is the personal knowledge of the Scriptures:
1 我们必须按字面熟悉神的话:
1. We must be acquainted with the Word of God literally:
a 我们必须按字面熟悉神的话,如同主在马太四章四节、七节、十节那样─参申八3,六16、13。
a. We must be acquainted with the Word of God literally as the Lord was in Matthew 4:4, 7, and 10—cf. Deut. 8:3; 6:16, 13.
b 我们必须按字面熟悉神的话,如同使徒保罗在罗马一章十七节,三章四节、十至十八节那样。─引用经文
b. We must be acquainted with the Word of God literally as the apostle Paul was in Romans 1:17; 3:4, 10-18.
2 我们必须认识神话语的深意和属灵的意义:
2. We must know the deep denotations and spiritual significances of the Word of God:
a 马太二十二章三十一至三十二节所启示,主对出埃及三章六节的领会,是认识神话语深意的例证。─引用经文
a. The Lord's understanding of Exodus 3:6, revealed in Matthew 22:31-32, is an illustration of knowing the deep denotations of the Word of God.
b 希伯来二章五至九节所启示,使徒保罗对诗篇八篇四至八节的领会,是另一个认识神话语深意的例证。─引用经文
b. The apostle Paul's understanding of Psalm 8:4-6, revealed in Hebrews 2:5-9, is another illustration of this.
c 我们也能从行传十三章三十三节所启示,保罗对诗篇二篇七节的领会,看见他对神话语深意的认识。─引用经文
c. We can also see Paul's knowledge of the deep denotations of the Word of God in his understanding of Psalm 2:7, as revealed in Acts 13:33.
d 我们也可以在约翰三章十六节找到圣经的深意,这是圣经最深奥的经节之一;简单地说,这节的意义是,创世记一章所启示的三一神,爱属撒但世界里有蛇性的人,甚至将祂的独生子,就是神圣三一的第二者,在成为肉体里赐给他们,以蛇的形状为他们死,作他们的代替,且成为赐生命之灵,叫凡信祂作他们救赎主的人,可得重生,凭着祂自己作为赐生命之灵而得着永远的生命,成为神的众子(约一12,来二10),并成为祂的许多弟兄(罗八29),构成祂的身体,召会(弗一23),作祂的扩增和祂的新妇,以满足并彰显祂;这要终极完成于启示录二十一至二十二章所启示的新耶路撒冷,以显明经过过程并终极完成的三一神,好完成祂永远的经纶。─引用经文
d. The deep denotation of the Scriptures can be found also in John 3:16, which is one of the deepest verses in the Bible; in brief, this denotation is that the Triune God, revealed in Genesis 1, so loved the serpentine people of the satanic world that He gave His only begotten Son, the second of His Divine Trinity, to them in incarnation to die for them in the form of a serpent as their Substitute and become the life-giving Spirit, that those who believe in Him as their Redeemer might be re?generated with His eternal life by Himself as the life-giving Spirit, to be the many sons of God (John 1:12; Heb. 2:10) and His many brothers (Rom. 8:29) to constitute His Body, the church (Eph. 1:23), as His increase and His bride, to satisfy and express Him; this will be consum?mated in the New Jerusalem, as revealed in Revelation 21—22, to manifest the processed and consummated Triune God for the fulfill?ment of His eternal economy.
e 保罗对神话语属灵意义的认识,可见于加拉太四章二十二至二十六节所启示,他对创世记十六章十五节和二十一章二节的解释;这也可见于以弗所四章八至十节里,他对诗篇六十八篇十八节的解释。─引用经文
e. Paul's knowledge of the spiritual significance of the Word of God can be seen in his interpretation of Genesis 16:15 and 21:2, as revealed in Galatians 4:22-26; it can also be seen in his interpretation of Psalm 68:18 in Ephesians 4:8-10.
3 在得着个人对圣经的认识这事上,我们也需要在神话语中得着属灵的亮光,并看见属灵的异象─赛一1,二1,十三1,十五1,参林前十四26,启一11,弗一10,三9,提前一4,罗十五16,彼前二5、9。
3. In gaining a personal knowledge of the Scriptures, we also need to receive spiritual enlightenment and spiritual vision in the Word of God—Isa. 1:1; 2:1; 13:1; 15:1; cf. 1 Cor. 14:26; Rev. 1:11; Eph. 1:10; 3:9; 1 Tim. 1:4; Rom. 15:16; 1 Pet. 2:5, 9.
二 申言的第二个基本构成,是个人的生命经历─徒五20,约壹一3。
B. The second basic constituent of a prophecy is the personal experience of life—Acts 5:20; 1 John 1:3.
三 在说出正确的申言这事上,我们不该粘于个人的经历、见证、感觉、想法、意见、感情以及对任何人事物的反应。
C. In speaking forth a proper prophecy, we must not adhere to personal experi?ences, testimonies, feelings, thoughts, opinions, affections, and reactions to any persons, matters, and things.
玖 我们需要看见申言的基本拦阻:
IX. We need to see the basic obstacle to prophesying:
一 申言乃是为神和基督说话,并说出神和基督;这样的说话是与神和基督的说话之灵合作─撒下二三2,徒六10,参来一1~2:
A. To prophesy is to speak for and to speak forth God and Christ; to speak in this way is to cooperate with the speaking Spirit of God and Christ—2 Sam. 23:2; Acts 6:10; cf. Heb. 1:1-2:
1 那灵总是预备好,期盼同着我们并借着我们说话。
1. The Spirit is always ready and expecting to speak with us and through us.
2 然而,我们并不总是与那灵合作说话。
2. However, we do not always cooperate with the Spirit to speak.
二 我们在与那灵合作说话上的拦阻,乃是我们天然的人与我们的个性和习惯。
B. Our obstacle in cooperating to speak with the Spirit is our natural man with our disposition and habit.
三 胜过我们的拦阻之路,乃是反我们天然的人和我们的个性、习惯;我们已经被钉在十字架上(罗六6,加二20),我们该留在十字架上。─引用经文
C. The way to overcome our obstacle is to be against our natural man with our disposition and habit; we have been crucified on the cross (Rom. 6:6; Gal. 2:20), and we should remain on the cross.
拾 得胜者就是申言者之预表的应验:
X. The overcomers are the fulfillment of the typology of the prophets:
一 所以当使徒保罗说到召会该怎么聚会的时候,他强调而且高举申言─林前十四1、3~6、24、31、39。
A. Therefore, when the apostle Paul speaks concerning how the church should meet, he stresses and uplifts prophesying—1 Cor. 14:1, 3-6, 24, 31, 39.
二 申言,把基督说到人里面,会使你成为得胜者。
B. Prophesying, speaking Christ into people, makes you an overcomer.
三 申言乃是得胜者的功用。
C. Prophesying is the function of the overcomers.
