Outline
1叁 经历亚伯拉罕的神、以撒的神和雅各的神,结果乃是神的以色列,就是在三一神里的召会—创三五10,三三20,加六16,帖前一1,太二八19:
1III. The issue of experiencing the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob is the Israel of God, the church in the Triune God—Gen. 35:10; 33:20; Gal. 6:16; 1 Thes. 1:1; Matt. 28:19:
2一 神的以色列是真以色列人(罗九6下,二28~29,腓三3),包括在基督里所有外邦和犹太的信徒,他们是亚伯拉罕的真子孙,是信仰之家的人,也是新造里的人—加三7、29,六10、15~16:
2A. The Israel of God is the real Israel (Rom. 9:6b; 2:28-29; Phil. 3:3), including all the Gentile and Jewish believers in Christ, who are the true sons of Abraham, who are the household of the faith, and who are those in the new creation—Gal. 3:7, 29; 6:10, 15-16:
31 真以色列人,属灵的以色列人,乃是召会—16节,太十六18。
31. The real Israel, the spiritual Israel, is the church—v. 16; Matt. 16:18.
42 在神新约的经纶里,我们已成为神的儿子和神的以色列;我们的定命是作神的儿子彰显神,并作君王在神的国里掌权—加三26,六10、16,启五10,二一7,二二5下,十二5上。
42. In God's New Testament economy we have been made both the sons of God and the Israel of God; our destiny is to be sons of God expressing God and also kings reigning in the kingdom of God—Gal. 3:26; 6:10, 16; Rev. 5:10; 21:7; 22:5b; 12:5a.
53 我们作为神的以色列,代表神,行使祂的权柄,并在地上执行祂的行政,以完成祂的定旨—创一26、28,路十19,启十二5、7~11。
53. As the Israel of God, we represent God, exercise His authority, and carry out His administration on earth for the fulfillment of His purpose—Gen. 1:26, 28; Luke 10:19; Rev. 12:5, 7-11.
6二 神的以色列乃是在三一神里的召会—帖前一1,太二八19:
6B. The Israel of God is the church in the Triune God—1 Thes. 1:1; Matt. 28:19:
71 当保罗说到在父神和主耶稣基督里的召会,事实上他的意思是说,召会是在三一神里—帖前一1,林前一2,十二4~6:
71. When Paul speaks of the church in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, he actually means that the church is in the Triune God—1 Thes. 1:1; 1 Cor. 1:2; 12:4-6:
8a “父神”和“主耶稣基督”这样的说法,都含示那灵;因此,帖前一1含示那灵是不言而喻的,我们可以说,召会是在三一神里的。
8a. The expressions God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ both imply the Spirit; therefore, in 1 Thessalonians 1:1 the Spirit is implied and understood, and we may speak of the church being in the Triune God.
9b 按照圣经,我们找不到召会只在神里这回事;反之,召会乃是在经过过程的三一神里—太二八19,林后十三14。
9b. According to the Bible, there is no such thing as the church being merely in God; rather, the church is in the processed Triune God— Matt. 28:19; 2 Cor. 13:14.
10c 召会在父神和主耶稣基督里,意思是说,召会乃是在经过过程的三一神里,就是在那带着父和子成了赐生命之灵的一位里—太二八19,弗四4~6,约十四20。
10c. For the church to be in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ means that the church is in the processed Triune God—the One who has become the life-giving Spirit with the Father and the Son—Matt. 28:19; Eph. 4:4-6; John 14:20.
112 我们若看见召会在三一神里的异象,这异象会支配我们的思想、活动,以及我们整个的生活—箴二九18上,徒二六19。
112. If we see the vision of the church in the Triune God, this vision will control our thinking, our activities, and our entire life—Prov. 29:18a; Acts 26:19.

12加六16 凡照这准则而行的,愿平安怜悯临到他们,就是临到神的以色列。
12Gal. 6:16 And as many as walk by this rule, peace be upon them and mercy, even upon the Israel of God.
13帖前一1 保罗、西拉和提摩太,写信给在父神和主耶稣基督里,帖撒罗尼迦人的召会:愿恩典与平安归与你们。
131 Thes. 1:1 Paul and Silvanus and Timothy to the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace.
14保罗在加六16的末了说,“就是临到神的以色列。”“就是”在原文不是用作连接词,而是作为解释,指明使徒认为在基督里许多单个的信徒,在团体一面乃是神的以色列。神的以色列即真以色列人(罗九6下,二28~29,腓三3),包括在基督里所有外邦和犹太的信徒,他们是亚伯拉罕的真子孙(加三7、29),是信仰之家的人(六10),也是新造的人,他们照“这准则”而行,彰显神的形像,并施行神的权柄(加拉太书生命读经,三三〇页)。
14Paul concludes Galatians 6:16 with the words even upon the Israel of God. The Greek word rendered “even” (kai) here is not connective but explicative, indicating that the apostle considered the many individual believers in Christ collectively the Israel of God. The Israel of God is the real Israel (Rom. 9:6; 2:28-29; Phil. 3:3), including all the Gentile and Jewish believers in Christ, who are the true sons of Abraham (Gal. 3:7, 29), who are the household of the faith (6:10), and who are those in the new creation. They walk by “this rule,” express God’s image, and execute God’s authority. (Life-study of Galatians, p. 263)

15我们这些相信基督耶稣的人……有双重的身分。一面,我们是神的儿子,神圣家庭的一员。另一面,我们是未来的君王,命定要作君王的人。君王职分与神的以色列有关。……要成为神合式的儿子,有那灵的果子,如加五22、23所列举的那些美德,就够了。但我们要作君王—神的以色列,就需要另一种生活,一种特别的凭着灵而行。……这不仅仅是神圣家庭中儿子的生活,也是那要在神国里作君王之人的生活。愿我们的眼睛得开启,看见我们是皇家的君王!
15We who believe in Christ Jesus…have a dual status. On the one hand, we are sons of God, members of the divine family. On the other hand, we are kings-to-be, those destined to be kings. Kingship is related to the Israel of God…To be proper sons of God it is sufficient to have the fruit of the Spirit, such as those virtues listed in Galatians 5:22-23. But to be kings, the Israel of God, we need another kind of living, a particular kind of walk by the Spirit… This is the living not merely of sons in the divine family but of those who will be kings in God’s kingdom. May our eyes be opened to see that we are kings in the royal family!
16就一面说,即使许多以色列人悖逆且非常罪恶,以色列国还是神的以色列和神的见证。然而,真以色列,属灵的以色列,乃是召会。但因为以色列国与召会都在低落的光景里,主就需要恢复神的真以色列。为着这样的恢复,我们需要两种生活,两种的行。在第一种行,我们会有爱、喜乐、和平、温柔和恒忍这样的美德,这都是那活在我们里面之基督的彰显。我们也需要第二种行,好叫我们成为神的以色列,背负神的君王职分,有祂的权柄代表祂,并执行祂的行政管理。……就属灵一面说,我们是神的儿子,也是神的以色列。我们是神的儿子,需要有爱、喜乐、和平、信实、温柔;我们是神的以色列,必须照神新约经纶的基本准则而行(加拉太书生命读经,四六六至四六八页)。
16In a sense, the nation of Israel is the Israel of God and a testimony of God, even though many Israelites are rebellious and very sinful. However, the real Israel, the spiritual Israel, is the church. But because both the nation of Israel and the church are in a low condition, there is the need for the Lord to recover the real Israel of God. For such a recovery we need two kinds of living, two kinds of walk. In the first walk we will have such virtues as love, joy, peace, meekness, and long-suffering, all of which are the expression of the Christ who lives in us. We also need the second kind of walk so that we may be the Israel of God bearing God’s kingship, representing Him with His authority, and executing His governmental administration. Spiritually speaking, we are both the sons of God and the Israel of God. As sons of God, we need to be loving, joyful, peaceful, faithful, and meek. As the Israel of God, we must walk according to the elementary rules of God’s New Testament economy. (Life-study of Galatians, pp. 375-376)
17我们可以确定,帖前一1所说的神乃是三一神。我们如何知道?因为保罗首先提到父—三一神的第一者。……保罗说到父的这个事实,有力地指明他所想的是三一神。不仅如此,“主耶稣基督”这话也含示那灵。“父神”与“主耶稣基督”都含示那灵。因此,一章一节含示那灵,是不言而喻的。……这位三一神是经过过程的神。祂经过了成为肉体、人性生活、钉十字架和复活的过程。祂钉十字架成功了救赎,了结了旧造,毁坏了撒但和死亡。祂复活使新造有了新生的起头。现今祂是赐生命的灵,就是三一神的终极完成。召会是在这样一位三一神里面。召会是在经过过程的三一神里,就是在那带着父和子成了赐生命之灵的一位里。
17Be assured that the very God spoken of in 1 Thessalonians 1:1 is the Triune God. We know this by the fact that Paul first mentions the Father, the first of the Trinity…The very fact that Paul speaks of the Father is a strong indication that he is thinking of the Triune God. Moreover, the expression the Lord Jesus Christ implies the Spirit. The expressions God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ both imply the Spirit. Therefore, in 1:1 the Spirit is implied and understood. This Triune God is the processed God. He has passed through the process of incarnation, human living, crucifixion, and resurrection. In crucifixion He accomplished redemption, the termination of the old creation, and the destruction of Satan and death. In resurrection He germinated the new creation. Now He is the life-giving Spirit as the ultimate consummation of the Triune God. The church is in such a Triune God. The church is in the processed Triune God, the One who has become the life-giving Spirit with the Father and the Son.
18我们若看见召会是在父神和主耶稣基督里的这个异象,自然就会明白,我们不该固守某些观念或作某些事,因为这些事是属世的、凡俗的、不圣的、也不是分别归神的。我们会明白,这类事物不是为着召会的,因为召会乃是在父神和主耶稣基督里的(帖撒罗尼迦前书生命读经,六八、七二、七九页)。
18If we see the revelation that the church is in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, we will spontaneously realize that we should not hold to certain concepts or do certain things, for they are worldly, profane, unholy, not separated unto God. We will realize that such things are not for the church in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. (Life-study of 1 Thessalonians, pp. 56, 59, 65-66)
