10“杰出的复活”这辞的意思是,我们全人的每一部分都要复活。……基督徒的生活行动包括一段漫长的过程,我们需要走一段漫长的路。这生活行动的终点就是我们需要达到的目标,……杰出的复活。……达到杰出的复活乃是模成基督之死的结果。模成基督的死,意即我们总是留在祂的死里。我们若留在基督的死里,让自己模成这死的样式,结果就是我们全人的每一部分都要进入复活。我们的复活开始于我们的重生。作为罪人,我们都是老亚当的一部分。我们每一方面都是老旧的;……但是当我们相信主耶稣,有一种新的成分进到我们里面。神的圣灵进来,用神的生命重生了我们。因此,借着重生,我们老旧、死沉的灵就复活了。圣经说当我们得救时,我们是活过来了(弗二5)。我们得救以前,原是死在过犯并罪之中(1,西二13)。但是当我们相信了主耶稣,神的圣灵就来用神圣的生命点活我们死沉的灵。那时,我们全人的一部分,就是我们的灵,复活过来了。但我们全人其他的部分,就如我们的心思、情感、意志和心如何?我们在灵里重生时,这些部分尚未复活。然而,神的目标是要我们全人都复活。 10This term out-resurrection means that every part of our being will be resurrected…The Christian walk involves a long process, and it takes us a long way. At the end of this walk is the goal at which we need to arrive,…the out-resurrection. Arriving at the out-resurrection is the result, the issue, of being conformed to Christ’s death. To be conformed, molded, to the death of Christ means that we remain always in His death. If we remain in Christ’s death, allowing ourselves to be molded into its likeness, the outcome will be that every part of our being will be gradually resurrected. Our resurrection began with our regeneration. As sinners, we were all part of the old Adam. In every respect we were old…But when we believed in the Lord Jesus, something new entered into us. The Holy Spirit of God came in to regenerate us with the life of God. Thus, by regeneration our old, deadened spirit was resurrected. The Bible says that when we were saved, we were made alive (Eph. 2:5). Before we were saved, we were dead in offenses and sins (v. 1; Col. 2:13). But when we believed in the Lord Jesus, the Holy Spirit of God came in to enliven our deadened spirit with the divine life. At that time, part of our being, our spirit, was resurrected. But what about the other parts of our being, such as our mind, emotion, will, and heart? When we were regenerated in our spirit, these parts were not yet resurrected. Nevertheless, God’s goal is to resurrect our whole being.
