一 在以西结书中,“人子”这个辞用了九十多次;这指明神多么愿意得着人。

2 要成就神的定旨,基督需要成为人;没有人,神的定旨无法在地上成就。

2. In order to accomplish God’s purpose, it was necessary for Christ to be a man; without man, God’s purpose cannot be carried out on earth.

㈠ 基督在十字架上所了结的,是我们的旧人,我们堕落的人性,但神所造的人性仍需复活─罗六6,创一26,西二13,弗二5~6。

2. In the forty days between His resurrection and ascension, the Lord Jesus trained His disciples to live a divinely human life—Acts 1:3:

a 祂训练他们认识祂已成了他们,祂已进到他们里面,并且祂已将他们带到祂里面。

a. He trained them to know that He had become them, that He had entered into them, and that He had brought them into Him.

b 这样的训练是要帮助门徒看见,他们是与三一神调和,他们不再仅仅有人性,乃是有带着神性的人性,甚至有耶稣那样的人性。

b. This kind of training was to help the disciples realize that they were mingled with the Triune God, that they were no longer merely human but divinely human, even “Jesusly” human.

c. They were no longer merely men but God-men, divine men, with the Triune God as their intrinsic essence to become their divine being—Eph. 3:14-17.

d. They could now live a life in which they were one with the processed and consummated Triune God—2 Cor. 13:14; 1 Cor. 6:17; 15:45b.

五 我们要有耶稣的人性来为着神的建造,就需要经历耶稣的灵─徒十六7:

E. In order to have the humanity of Jesus for God’s building, we need to experience the Spirit of Jesus—Acts 16:7:

1 “耶稣的灵”是神的灵特别的说法,指成为肉体之救主的灵,这位救主就是在人性里的耶稣,经过了为人的生活和十字架的死。

1. The Spirit of Jesus is a particular expression concerning the Spirit of God and refers to the Spirit of the incarnated Savior who, as Jesus in His humanity, passed through human living and death on the cross.

5. In resurrection Christ, who was the only begotten Son of God in His divinity, was born of God in His humanity to be the firstborn Son of God—Acts 13:33; Rom. 8:29; 1:4:

a 祂的人性得以“子化”,成为神圣的;这样在复活里的“子化”,使基督在成为肉体时所穿上的人性得着圣别、提高并变化─4节。

a. His humanity was “sonized,” made divine; this “sonizing” in resurrection sanctified, uplifted, and transformed Christ’s humanity, which He put on in incarnation—v. 4.

b 今天这样提高的人性,乃是在耶稣的灵里,也能成为我们的经历,使我们成为耶稣那样的人,有耶稣的人性,为着神的建造─腓二5~8,太十六18,弗二21~22,四16。

b. Now such an uplifted humanity is in the Spirit of Jesus and can become our experience so that we may become “Jesusly” human, having the humanity of Jesus for God’s building—Phil. 2:5-8; Matt. 16:18; Eph. 2:21-22; 4:16.
