读经∶林前十二24,十17,利二4,弗三16~17上,四16,林前十三4~8上

壹 神经纶的最高峰乃是基督身体的实际;基督身体的实际完全是生机的─罗八2、6、10~11,十二4~5。

I. The highest peak in God's economy is the reality of the Body of Christ; the reality of the Body of Christ is absolutely organic-Rom. 8:2, 6, 10-11; 12:4-5.

贰 主的恢复是为着建造基督的身体;因此,认识身体乃是主正确的恢复─林前十二27,弗四16,西三15:

II. The Lord's recovery is for the building up of the Body of Christ; thus, to know the Body is the proper recovery of the Lord-1 Cor. 12:27; Eph. 4:16; Col. 3:15:

一 召会是以基督的身体为其生机的因素;若没有基督的身体,召会就没有生命,只是一个属人的组织─林前一2,十二12~13、27。

A. The church takes the Body of Christ as its organic factor; without the Body of Christ the church is lifeless and is a mere human organization-1 Cor. 1:2; 12:12-13, 27.

二 基督的身体是召会的内在意义;如果没有身体,召会就没有意义─罗十二4~5,十六1、4、16。

B. The Body is the intrinsic significance of the church; without the Body the church makes no sense and has no meaning-Rom. 12:4-5; 16:1, 4, 16.

三 长老们必须彼此牧养,彼此相爱,作身体生活的模型;长老们需要彼此相爱,他们的妻子也需要彼此相爱,他们也需要爱彼此的儿女─约二一15~17,林前十三4~8上。

C. The elders should shepherd one another and love one another to be a model of the Body life; the elders need to love one another, their wives need to love one another, and they need to love one another's children-John 21:15-17; 1 Cor. 13:4-8a.

四 我们若要有基督身体的实际,就必须让基督安家在我们心里;基督身体的实际乃是对内住基督内里的经历─弗三16~17上,四16,西一27,三4、15。

D. If we would have the reality of the Body of Christ, we must allow Christ to make His home in our hearts; the reality of the Body is the inner experience of the indwelling Christ-Eph. 3:16-17a; 4:16; Col. 1:27; 3:4, 15.

五 主急切地需要基督身体的实际在众地方召会出现;除非这个身体有相当的出现,主耶稣不会回来─弗一22~23,四16,五27、30,启十九7。

E. The Lord urgently needs the reality of the Body of Christ to be expressed in the local churches; unless there is a substantial expression of the Body, the Lord Jesus will not return-Eph. 1:22-23; 4:16; 5:27, 30; Rev. 19:7.

六 主需要得胜者,好完成神的经纶,使祂得着基督的身体,并毁坏祂的仇敌;没有得胜者,基督的身体就无法建造起来,而基督的身体若没有建造起来,基督就无法回来迎娶新妇─弗一10,三10,启十二11,十九7~9。

F. The Lord needs the overcomers to carry out the economy of God to have the Body of Christ and to destroy His enemy; without the overcomers the Body of Christ cannot be built up, and unless the Body of Christ is built up, Christ cannot come back for His bride-Eph. 1:10; 3:10; Rev. 12:11; 19:7-9.

七 主的恢复乃是建造锡安─得胜者作基督身体的实际,终极完成于新耶路撒冷;在召会生活中,我们必须竭力达到今日的锡安─弗一22~23,四16,林前一2,十二27,启十四1,二一2。

G. The Lord's recovery is to build up Zion-the overcomers as the reality of the Body of Christ consummating in the New Jerusalem; in the church life we must endeavor to reach today's Zion-Eph. 1:22-23; 4:16; 1 Cor. 1:2; 12:27; Rev. 14:1; 21:2.

叁 神已经将身体调和在一起(林前十二24);“调和”这辞的意思是“调整”、“使之和谐”、“调节”并“调在一起”,含示失去区别:─引用经文

III. God has blended the Body together (1 Cor. 12:24); the word blended means "adjusted," "harmonized," "tempered," and "mingled," implying the losing of distinctions:

一 我们要为着基督身体的实际而相调,就必须经过十字架,凭着那灵,为着基督身体的建造,将基督分赐给别人。

A. In order to be blended for the reality of the Body of Christ, we have to go through the cross and be by the Spirit to dispense Christ to others for the building up of the Body of Christ.

二 调和的意思是,我们总是停下来与别人交通;若没有与其他一同配搭的圣徒交通,我们就不该作什么;因为交通调整我们,使我们和谐,调节我们,把我们调在一起。

B. Blending means that we should always stop in order to fellowship with others; we should not do anything without fellowshipping with the other saints who are coordinating with us, because fellowship adjusts us, harmonizes us, tempers us, and mingles us.

三 一班负责弟兄也许常常在一起聚会而没有相调;相调的意思是经过十字架,凭着那灵行事,并且作每件事都为着基督身体的缘故分赐基督,借此你被别人摸着,你也摸着别人。

C. A group of responsible brothers may meet together often without being blended; to be blended means that you are touched by others and that you are touching others by going through the cross, doing things by the Spirit, and doing everything to dispense Christ for His Body's sake.

四 这样的调和不是交际,乃是个别肢体、区内的众召会、同工、长老所享受、经历并有分于之基督的调和。

D. Such a blending is not social but the blending of the very Christ whom the individual members, the district churches, the co-workers, and the elders enjoy, experience, and partake of.

五 调和是为着建造基督宇宙的身体(弗一23),好照着神的喜悦,完成那作神经纶最终目标的新耶路撒冷(三8~10,一9~10,启二一2)。─引用经文

E. The blending is for the building up of the universal Body of Christ (Eph. 1:23) to consummate the New Jerusalem (Rev. 21:2) as the final goal of God's economy according to His good pleasure (Eph. 3:8-10; 1:9-10).

肆 我们需要跟随使徒的脚踪,将众圣徒带进基督身体全体相调的生活里;使徒借着推荐与问安,将我们带进基督身体全体相调的生活里,好使平安的神,能将撒但践踏在我们脚下,并使我们能得享基督丰富的恩典─罗十六1~16、21~23、20。

IV. We need to follow in the apostle's footsteps to bring all the saints into the blending life of the entire Body of Christ; the apostle brought us into the?blending life of the entire Body of Christ by recommendations and greetings in order that the God of peace may crush Satan under our feet and we may enjoy the rich grace of Christ-Rom. 16:1-16, 21-23, 20.

伍 相调的目的是要将我们众人引进基督身体的实际:<

V. The purpose of the blending is to usher us all into the reality of the Body of Christ:/H5>

一 我们需要在作为手续的众地方召会里,好被带进基督身体的实际这目标里。

A. We need to be in the local churches as the procedure to be brought into the reality of the Body of Christ as the goal.

二 主恢复的最高峰,能真正、实际、真实完成神经纶的,不是叫神以有形的作法产生许多地方召会,乃是让神产生生机的身体作祂的生机体。

B. The highest peak of the Lord's recovery that can really, practically, and actually carry out God's economy is for God to produce not many local churches in a physical way but an organic Body to be His organism.

三 保罗认为召会是一个饼(林前十17),这种想法不是他自己发明的,乃是取自旧约里的素祭(利二4);素祭的细面,每一部分都是用油调和的─那就是相调。─引用经文

C. Paul's thought of the church being one bread (1 Cor. 10:17) was not his own invention; rather, it was taken from the Old Testament with the meal offering (Lev. 2:4); every part of the flour of the meal offering was mingled with the oil-that is the blending.

四 少有人说到相调,因为这事不仅非常高深,也非常奥秘;相调不是一件物质的事;我们相调的意义,乃是基督身体的实际。

D. Hardly anyone speaks about blending because this is not only very high and deep but also very mysterious; it is not a physical matter; the significance of our blending is the reality of the Body of Christ.

陆 基督身体的实际乃是被成全之神人所过的团体生活,他们是真正的人,但他们不凭自己的生命,乃凭经过过程之神的生命而活;经过过程之神的属性借着他们的美德彰显出来。

VI. The reality of the Body of Christ is the corporate living by the perfected God-men, who are genuine men but are not living by their life but by the life of the processed God, whose attributes have been expressed through their virtues.

柒 基督身体的实际乃是蒙重生、被变化、得荣耀的三部分神人,在基督的复活里,与三一神在永远联结里调和的生活:

VII. The reality of the Body of Christ is the mingling living in the eternal union of the regenerated, transformed, and glorified tripartite God-men with the Triune God in the resurrection of Christ:

一 我们用“调和”这辞(英文mingling在这段话里为现在分词─译注),因为这种生活仍在进行。

A. We use the word mingling because this living is still going on.

二 这种调和的生活,乃是在基督的复活里,而这复活的实际就是那灵;这复活将终极完成的神分赐给信徒,并将那胜过死的生命释放到信徒里面。

B. Such a mingling living is in the resurrection of Christ, and the reality of this resurrection is the Spirit; this resurrection imparts the consummated God and releases the death-overcoming life into the believers.

捌 被成全之神人所过这团体、调和的生活,要终极完成于在新天新地里的新耶路撒冷,作神的扩增并彰显,直到永远。

VIII. This corporate and mingling living by the perfected God-men consummates ultimately in the New Jerusalem in the new heaven and new earth as God's increase and expression for eternity.
