贰 在以西结一章十五至二十一节里,神的经纶比作一个大轮:─引用经文
II. In Ezekiel 1:15-21 God's economy is likened to a great wheel:
一 这大轮是神在宇宙中的行动;这轮作神行事、行动的凭借,乃是基督同召会─弗五32。
A. The great wheel is the move of God in the universe; this wheel as the means by which God acts and moves is Christ with the church—Eph. 5:32.
二 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─西一17~18,弗一22~23,启二一2、10~11。
B. The hub of this great wheel signifies Christ as the center of God's economy, and the rim signifies Christ's counterpart, the church, consummating in the New Jeru??salem—Col. 1:17-18; Eph. 1:22-23; Rev. 21:2, 10-11.
三 作基督肢体的许多信徒,乃是轮轴的轮辐,伸展到轮辋,就是基督的身体─弗五30,林前十二12~13、20、27。
C. The many believers as the members of Christ are the spokes of the hub spread?ing to the rim, to the Body of Christ—Eph. 5:30; 1 Cor. 12:12-13, 20, 27.
四 这大轮不只是神的经纶,也是神经纶的行动─提前一4,弗一10,徒十三1~4:
D. This great wheel is not just the economy of God but also the moving of the economy of God—1 Tim. 1:4; Eph. 1:10; Acts 13:1-4:
1 从创世记一章直到如今,这大轮一直在转动─徒十七1~6,罗十五18~19。
1. From Genesis 1 until the present, this wheel has been continually mov?ing—Acts 17:1-6; Rom. 15:18-19.
2 神经纶的行动从未停止过,今天这大轮已经到了我们这里─徒二八31。
2. The move of God's economy has never stopped, and today this great wheel has reached us—Acts 28:31.
3 历世历代以来,神经纶的大轮一直在地上行动;今天我们都是这大轮行动的一部分。
3. In every age and in every generation, the wheel of God's economy has been moving on earth, and now we all are a part of the move of this great wheel.
叁 我们需要与主是一,为着神圣经纶之大轮的行动祷告─太六9~10,约十四12~13,雅五17:
III. We need to be one with the Lord to pray for the move of the great wheel of the divine economy—Matt. 6:9-10; John 14:12-13; James 5:17:
一 真实的祷告乃是祷告的人与神合作同工,让神从人里面并借着人发表祂自己和祂的心意,至终成功祂的定旨─约十五7,雅五17。
A. In genuine prayer the praying one cooperates with God, works together with God, and allows God to express Himself and His desire from within him and through him, ultimately accomplishing God's purpose—John 15:7; James 5:17.

3. "Be identified with Him / In His purpose and His aim / Till His blessing floodeth in"—stanza 2.
肆 神完成祂经纶的行动,乃是借着以西结一章十五至二十一节所描绘大而可畏之轮子的行动:─引用经文
IV. The move of God to carry out His economy is by the move of the high and awesome wheels portrayed in Ezekiel 1:15-21:
一 轮子的行动乃是主特别、不平常的行动,借祂作我们的力量、能力和供应,为着祂永远的定旨─参5~8、19~20节:
A. The move of the wheels is the special, extraordinary move of the Lord for His eternal purpose by Him as our strength, power, and supply—cf. vv. 5-8, 19-20:
1 我们的神是活的(提前三15,来三12),我们的主是行动的(太十六18),并且那灵正在作工(启五6下),以完成神永远的经纶。─引用经文
1. Our God is living (1 Tim. 3:15; Heb. 3:12), our Lord is moving (Matt. 16:18), and the Spirit is working (Rev. 5:6b) to carry out God's eternal economy.
2 每一个地方召会和每一位个别的信徒,都该有高而可畏的轮子随着他们─参徒十三1~4。
2. Every local church and every individual believer should have a high and awesome wheel with them—cf. Acts 13:1-4.
二 高而可畏的轮子在地上,表明神需要在地上行动─结一15,太六10:
B. The high and awesome wheels being upon the earth shows that God needs a move on the earth—Ezek. 1:15; Matt. 6:10:
1 轮有水苍玉的样子,指明轮子无论往哪里去,都带着主显出来的样子─结一16上,但十6。
1. The wheels having the appearance of beryl indicates that wherever the wheel goes, it brings the appearance of the Lord—Ezek. 1:16a; Dan. 10:6.
2 四轮都是一个样子,指明在每一个召会中,主的行动都有同一个样式和样子─结一16下,参启一12,帖前二14。
2. The wheels having the same appearance indicates that the move of the Lord has the same likeness and appearance in every church—Ezek. 1:16b; cf. Rev. 1:12; 1 Thes. 2:14.
3 轮向四方直行,行走时并不掉转,指明在配搭里的行动─结一17。
3. The wheels going in four directions and not turning as they went indicates a move in coordination—Ezek. 1:17.
4 高而可畏的轮辋满了眼睛,指明我们若在主的行动上与祂是一,我们就有祂的眼光和启示;我们越有分于主的行动,就越得光照,也越能看见─18节,弗一17。
4. The high and awesome rims of the wheels being full of eyes indicates that if we are one with the Lord in His move, we will have His insight and revelation; the more we participate in the Lord's move, the more we will be enlightened and the more we will be able to see—v. 18; Eph. 1:17.
5 以西结一章里最大的启示乃是轮中套轮;轮中套轮,表明主在我们的行动中行动─15~16节:
5. The greatest revelation in Ezekiel 1 is the wheel within the wheel; the wheel within the wheel shows the Lord's move in our move—vv. 15-16:
a 以利亚在祷告里祷告,这意思是主的祷告在他的祷告里,这就是轮中套轮─雅五17:㈠ 以利亚不是凭自己的感觉、思想、意愿、情绪,或任何来自环境和情况的刺激,为着达到自己的目的而祷告。㈡ 以利亚有负担献上专一的祷告,那个负担就是主赐给他的祷告,为了成就主的旨意;因此,以利亚在祷告里祷告─17节,罗八26~27。
a. For Elijah to pray in a prayer means that the Lord's prayer was within his prayer; this is the wheel within a wheel—James 5:17: ⑴ Elijah did not pray in his feeling, thought, intention, or mood, or in any kind of motivation, arising from circumstances or situations, to fulfill his own purpose. ⑵ Elijah had a burden to pray in a particular way, and that burden was the prayer given to him by the Lord for the accomplishing of His will; therefore, Elijah prayed in a prayer—v. 17; Rom. 8:26-27.
b 内里的轮子是使轮子转动的马达、发电机;我们的行动若是真实的,在我们的行动里就必定有主的行动─参一9,八16。
b. The inner wheel is the motor, the dynamo, the generator, which causes the wheel to move; if our move is genuine, it must be that within our move is the move of the Lord—cf. 1:9; 8:16.
6 轮随着活物,指明神工作的行动在于我们的行动─结一19,参传十一4。
6. The wheels following the living creatures indicates that the move of God's work depends upon our moving—Ezek. 1:19; cf. Eccl. 11:4.
7 轮随着活物,活物随着灵,但灵在轮中;这指明主在我们行动中的行动,乃是照着成为肉体的原则─结一20,林前六17,七10、25。
7. The wheels follow the living creatures, the creatures follow the Spirit, but the Spirit is in the wheels, indicating that the move of the Lord in our move is in the principle of incarnation—Ezek. 1:20; 1 Cor. 6:17; 7:10, 25.
三 神行动的轮子,神活动的轮子,需要作轮辋的召会配合作轮轴的基督;我们有基督作中心,召会作轮辋,就会有神经纶的轮子一直运转─弗五32,西一17~18。
C. With the wheel of God's move, God's activity, there is the need of the church as the rim to match Christ as the hub; when we have Christ as the center and the church as the rim, we will have the wheel of God's economy moving all the time—Eph. 5:32; Col. 1:17-18.
