一 在诗篇里,神圣启示的灵、实际和特征,乃是作神永远经纶之中心和普及的基督─路二四44。

二 基督先是三一神的具体化身,然后是神的家、神的居所(由神的殿所表征),也是神的国(由耶路撒冷城所表征),并且从神的家起,在神的国里,作全地的元首─诗二6~8,三六8~9,四六4,四八1~2,七二8、19。
B. Christ is first the embodiment of the Triune God, then thehouse, the habitation of God (signified by the temple), the kingdomof God (signified by the city of Jerusalem), and the Rulerof the entire earth from the house of God and in the kingdomof God—Psa. 2:6-8; 36:8-9; 46:4; 48:1-2; 72:8, 19.

C. God desires to have an organic habitation on earth, and thishabitation is the aggregate of the saints gained by God throughthe terminating death and germinating resurrection of the all-inclusiveChrist—22:22; 26:8:

贰 神创造了一个团体人,不仅有祂的形像以彰显祂,也运用祂的管治权管理全地以代表祂─创一26~28:
II. God created a corporate man to express Himself with Hisimage and to represent Him by exercising His dominionover all the earth—Gen. 1:26-28:

A. God's intention in giving man dominion is to subdue God'senemy, Satan, who rebelled against God; to recover the earth,which was usurped by Satan; and to exercise God's authorityover the earth in order that the kingdom of God may come tothe earth, the will of God may be done on the earth, and theglory of God may be manifested on the earth—Matt. 6:10, 13b;Rev. 11:15.

D. The Lord Jesus, the King, taught us to pray, saying, "Yourkingdom come; Your will be done, as in heaven, so also onearth"—Matt. 6:10:
1 神的国乃是神掌权的范围,使祂能彰显祂的荣耀─13节。
1. The kingdom is a realm in which God exercises His authorityso that He can express His glory—v. 13.
2 在撒但背叛之后,地落到撒但篡夺的手中,于是神的旨意无法行在地上,如同行在天上;因此,神造人的用意,乃是要为祂自己恢复这地─结二八17,赛十四13~15,创一26~28。
