11祂是神,出自神性并带著神性进到人性里,成为耶和华救主,在消极一面,将我们从罪里救出来,在积极一面,将我们救来归神。我们是神所造,并归给神的,但我们堕落离开了神。神将人放在祂面前,就是放在生命树前,但人的堕落使我们背向祂。所以神亲自来成为神而人者,使祂能作耶和华救主,将我们从罪里救出来,归给祂自己。我们得救的目的地是神。我们得救以前是在罪中。现今我们得救了,我们是在神里面,神也在我们里面。(约壹四15。)在神里面,我们得了重生,有祂的生命,成为属神的人,就是神人。一位弟兄在得救之前,可能来自香港,所以是个『香港人』。但如今他得救了,他就是一个神人,就是一个在神里面,也有神在他里面的人。我们如今有耶稣,耶和华我们的救主,以及以马内利,就是神与我们同在。
11He is God coming from divinity and with divinity into humanity to be Jehovah the Savior to save us from sin, on the negative side, and to save us to God, on the positive side. We were created by God and unto God, but we became fallen and left God. God placed man in front of Him, the tree of life, but man’s fall caused us to turn our back to Him. Therefore, God Himself came to be both God and man that He might be Jehovah the Savior to save us from sin unto Himself. The destination of our salvation is God. Before we were saved, we were in sin. Now that we are saved, we are in God and God is in us (1 John 4:15). In God we have been regenerated with His life to be men of God, God-men. Before a brother was saved, he may have been from Hong Kong. He was a “Hong Kong man.” But now that he is saved, he is a God-man, one who is in God and who has God in him. We now have Jesus, Jehovah our Savior, and Emmanuel, God with us.
