3圣经中有两件大事-神圣的分赐与神圣的经纶。在本篇信息中,我们要来看这两件事。
3There are two great things in the Bible—the divine dispensing and the divine economy. In this message we will cover these two matters
壹神圣的经纶就是神永远的计画,要将基督分赐到祂所拣选的人里面
I. THE DIVINE ECONOMY BEING GOD'S ETERNAL PLAN TO DISPENSE CHRIST INTO HIS CHOSEN PEOPLE
4经纶economy一辞源自希腊文,奥依克诺米亚,意家庭律法,家庭管理,家庭行政,引伸为行政的安排,计画,经纶。神圣的经纶就是神永远的计画,要将基督分赐到祂所拣选的人里面,以产生、构成、并建造基督生机的身体。(弗3:8-一10,三8~10,提前一4。)基督就是三一神的具体化身,因此神将基督分赐到祂所拣选的人里面,事实上就是神将祂自己在基督里分赐到祂所拣选的人里面。简单的说,神的经纶就是为基督得著一个身体,这身体就是三一神的扩大,使祂得著彰显,叫祂得著满足。
4The word economy is an anglicized form of the Greek word oikonomia, which means " household oikonomia law " or " household management " or " household administration " and derivatively " administrative dispensation, " " plan, " " economy. " The divine economy is God's eternal plan to dispense Christ into His chosen people to produce, constitute, and build up the organic Body of Christ (Eph. 1:10; 10; 1 Tim. 1:4). Since Christ is the embodiment of the Triune God, for God to dispense Christ into His chosen people actually means that God dispenses Himself in Christ into His chosen people. In brief, God ' secon o my is to gain a Body for Christ. This Body is the enlargement of the Triune God for His expression that He may be satisfied.
5贰神圣的分赐是要将基督作生命和生命的供应,分授到信祂的人里面神圣的分赐是要将基督作生命和生命的供应,分授到信祂的人里面。(加一15~16,西三4上。)
5II. THE DIVINE DISPENSING BEING TO IMPART CHRIST AS LIFE AND THE LIFE SUPPLY INTO HIS BELIEVERS The divine dispensing is to impart Christ as life and the life supply into His believers (Gal. 1:15-16; Col. 3:4a
一 在神的救赎里
A. In God's Redemption
6基督这三一神具体化身的分赐,首先是在神的救赎里。(约十二24,十九34。)神救赎的中心点和目标,不仅是救我们脱离我们的罪和罪的定罪(永远的沉沦),更是要释放,就是分赐祂自己这神圣的生命,进到祂所救赎的人里面。约翰十二章二十四节说到基督在祂的成为肉体里,成了一粒麦子,落在地里死了。麦粒里面有生命,照样,在基督肉身的体壳里,也有神圣的生命。祂在地上在肉体里时,祂里面的神圣生命隐藏在祂属人身体的外壳里。祂到十字架上受死,这属人身体的外壳就破裂了,神圣的生命就释放出来,而产生了许多子粒。这就是把神圣的生命释放到这些子粒里面。约翰十九章三十四节也说,基督在十字架上受死的时候,有两种元素-血和水-从祂肋旁流出来。血是为著救赎,水是为著释放神圣的生命。因此,基督救赎的死成了释放生命的死。
6This dispensing of Christ as the embodiment of the Triune God is first in God's redemption (John 12:24; 19:34). The central point, the goal, of God's redemption is not merely to redeem us from our sins and from the condemnation of sin (eternal perdition), but to release, that is, to dispense, God Himself as the divine life into His redeemed ones. John 12:24 says that Christ in His incarnation as a grain of wheat fell into the ground and died. Just as there is life in a grain of wheat, within the human shell of Christ's physical body there was the divine life. When He was on earth in the flesh, the divine life within Him was concealed in the shell of His human body. He went to the cross and died, and the death of the cross broke this human shell and released the divine life to produce many grains. This is to release the divine life into all these grains. Also, John 19:34 says that when Christ died on the cross, two elements, blood and water, flowed out of Him. Blood is for redemption, and water is for the releasing of the divine life. Thus, the redeeming death of Christ becomes the life-releasing death.
二 在神的救恩里
B. In God'sS alvation
7神圣的分赐也是在神的救恩里。(罗五10。)神的救赎乃是祂救恩的根基。根据祂的救赎,神必须藉著基督的生命拯救我们。这拯救的第一步乃是重生我们,而重生就是把神圣的生命分赐到我们里面。所以神的救恩乃是以生命的分赐为中心。
7The divine dispensing is also in God'ss alvation (Rom. 5:10). God's redemption is the foundation of His salvation. Based on His redemption, God has to save us by the life of Christ. The first step of this saving is to regenerate us, which is to impart the divine life into us. Thus, God'ss alvation is centered in life-dispensing
三 在拯救罪人上
C. In Saving Sinners
8神圣的分赐也与拯救罪人有关。(约三3,5~6,多三5。)神拯救罪人乃是来重生他们,把祂自己分赐到他们里面作生命。我们出去为基督寻找罪人时,需要向他们指出,他们需要神的生命,而接受神生命的路乃是由神而生,就是重生。
8The divine dispensing is involved also in the saving of sinners (John 3:3, 5-6; Titus 3:5). When God saves sinners, He regenerates them, dispensing Himself as life into their being. When we go to seek sinners for Christ, we need to point out to them that they need God's life and that the way to receive God's life is to be born of God, to be regenerated
四 在𫗪养初信者上
D. In Nourishing the New Believers
9神命定的路首先是重生我们,然后是𫗪养我们。彼前二章二节说,我们像才生的婴孩一样,需要喝话奶,好渐渐长大,以致得救。
9God's ordained way is first to regenerate us and then to nourish us. First Peter 2:2 says that as newborn babes we need to drink of the milk of the word so that we may grow unto salvation
五 在成全圣徒上
E. In Perfecting the Saints
10以弗所四章十二至十三节说到成全圣徒,这是所有信徒都需要的。成全圣徒就是将基督分赐到他们里面,使他们长大,以致成熟。我们传福音,就是把基督分赐到罪人里面。我们𫗪养初信者,就是将基督分赐到他们里面作食物、作滋养的成分。同样,我们成全圣徒时,乃是将基督供应给他们,将基督分赐到他们里面,不仅作奶,也作干粮。(林前三2,来五13~14。)
10Ephesians 4:12-13 speaks of perfecting the saints, something which is needed by all believers. To perfect the saints is to dispense Christ into them so that they can grow to maturity. When we preach the gospel, we impart Christ into sinners. When we nourish the new believers, we dispense Christ into them as food, as the nourishing element. Likewise, when we perfect the saints, we minister Christ to them, dispensing Christ into them not only as milk but also as solid food (1 Cor. 3:2; Heb. 5:13-14).
六 在申言上
F. In Prophesying
11神圣的分赐也是在于申言。(林前十四3。)我们在聚会中申言,必须供应基督。我们不该只是说到一些圣经的话,或只是谈论道理;我们该尽力将基督摆在我们的申言里。这样,我们职事的实际就是基督自己。
11The divine dispensing is also in prophesying (1 Cor. 14:3). When we prophesy in our meetings, our prophesying must minister Christ. We should not merely speak concerning a part of the Bible or merely talk about doctrine; we should do our best to put Christ into our prophesying. Then the reality of our ministry will be Christ Himself
七 在建造基督的身体上
G. In Building Up the Body of Christ
12前面所说的四项-拯救罪人、𫗪养初信者、成全圣徒、申言,都是在建造基督的身体。(弗四15~16。)
12All the foregoing items—to save sinners, to nourish the new believers, to perfect the saints, and to prophesy— are to build up the Body of Christ (Eph. 4:15-16
13我们需要看见,神的经纶是要将祂自己在基督里分赐到我们里面,从重生开始,持续于𫗪养和成全,直到成熟。这样,我们就被建造成为基督的身体。
13We need to see that God'secon o my is to dispense Himself in Christ into us, beginning with regeneration and continuing with nourishing and perfecting until we become mature. Then we will be built into the Body of Christ
参 神圣的分赐
III. THE DIVINE DISPENSING
是由生命之灵完成的
BEING CARRIED OUT BY THE SPIRIT OF LIFE
14神圣的分赐是由生命之灵,就是赐生命的灵,用祂全备的供应所完成的。(罗八2,林前十五45下,腓一19下。)肆接受神圣分赐的路
14The divine dispensing is carried out by the Spirit of life as the life-giving Spirit with His bountiful supply (Rom. 8:2; 1 Cor. 15:45b; Phil. 1:19b). IV. THE WAY TO RECEIVE THE DIVINE DISPENSING
一 喝那灵
A. To Drink the Spirit
15接受神圣分赐的路,首先是在我们的灵里,藉著运用灵而喝那灵。(林前十二13下,约七37~39。)
15The way to receive the divine dispensing is first to drink the Spirit (1 Cor. 12:13b; John 7:37-39) in our spirit by exercising our spirit
二 凭著灵活著,并凭著灵而行
B. To Live and Walk by the Spirit
16接受神圣分赐的路也是凭著灵活著,并凭著灵而行。(加五16,25。)这需要运用我们的灵。神已经作成了必要的一切,使祂自己终极完成于一位灵里。今天这位灵乃是经过过程、终极完成之三一神的总和。我们被基督吸引,相信祂,呼求主耶稣的名时,一个活的人位就进到我们里面。这一位乃是那灵,作为经过过程并终极完成之三一神的总和。当祂这位灵进到我们里面,这内住的一位就是基督,而基督就是三一神。这一位乃是包罗万有的,今天作为终极完成的灵,内住在我们的灵里。
16The way to receive the divine dispensing is also to live and walk by the Spirit (Gal. 5:16, 25). This requires that we exercise our spirit. God has done everything necessary to consummate Himself into the one Spirit. This Spirit today is the totality of the processed and consummated Triune God. When we were attracted by Christ, believed in Him, and called on the name of the Lord Jesus, a living person entered into us. This One is the Spirit as the consummation of the processed and consummated Triune God. When He as the Spirit dwells in us, that indwelling One is Christ, and Christ is the Triune God. This One is all - inclusive, and today as the consummated Spirit He indwells our spirit.
17在我们得救时,那灵就进到我们的灵里,重生我们的灵,使我们的灵活过来,并与我们的灵调和。基督徒的生活乃是这调和之灵的故事。过正常的基督徒生活,就是顾到这二灵-神圣的灵在我们重生之人的灵里。当我们接触主,向祂祷告,赞美祂,在我们这面是接受祂的分赐,在祂那面就是分赐。我们接受越多,祂就分赐越多,这样我们就得著三一神在祂的身位、性情并生命上的一切元素。结果三一神就在我们里面长大。当祂在我们里面长大,我们就在祂里面长大。这完全是生命分赐的事。藉著丰富的接受神圣的分赐,我们就得著耶稣基督之灵全备的供应,而在神圣的生命里长大。这就是基督徒的生活;这基督徒的生活,完全是在于神圣经纶的神圣分赐。
17When we were saved, the Spirit came into our spirit to regenerate our spirit, to enliven our spirit, and to be mingled with our spirit. The Christian life is a story of this mingled Spirit. To live a normal Christian life is to care for the two spirits—the divine Spirit in our regenerated human spirit. When we contact the Lord, when we pray to Him, and when we praise Him, our part is to receive His dispensing, and His part is to dispense. The more we receive, the more He dispenses. In this way we gain all the elements of the Triune God in His person, in His nature, and in His life. As a result, the Triune God grows in us. When He grows in us, we grow in Him. This is all a story of life-dispensing. Through the abundant receiving of the divine dispensing, we have the bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, and we grow in the divine life. This is the Christian life, and this Christian life is altogether due to the divine dispensing of the divine economy
