奴仆救主的复活与升天,并藉著门徒的普传福音

The Resurrection and Ascension of the Slave-Savior and
His Universal Spreading of the Gospel through His Disciples
1读经:马可福音十六章一至二十节。马可十六章说到三件事:奴仆救主的复活,(1~18,)奴仆救主得高举的升天,(19,)以及奴仆救主藉著门徒的普传福音。(20。)
1Scripture Reading: Mark 16:1-20 Chapter sixteen of the Gospel of Mark covers three matters: the resurrection of the Slave-Savior (vv. 1-18), the ascension of the Slave-Savior for His exaltation (v. 19), and the Slave-Savior’s universal spreading of the gospel through His disciples (v. 20
为三位妇女所发现
DISCOVERED BY THREE WOMEN
2十六章一至八节记载,主耶稣的复活是由三位妇女所发现的,她们是抹大拉的马利亚,和雅各的母亲马利亚,并撒罗米。(1。)在六节有一位天使对她们说,『不要惊恐,你们寻找那钉十字架的拿撒勒人耶稣,祂已经复活了,不在这里,请看安放祂的地方。』奴仆救主的复活,证明祂藉著死所成就的满足了神,也证实祂救赎并分赐生命之死的功效。(徒二24,三15。)这成了我们得称义的凭据,(罗四25,)和
2In 16:1-8 the resurrection of the Lord Jesus was discovered by three women—Mary the Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome (v. 1). In verse 6 an angel said to them, “Do not be amazed; you are seeking Jesus the Nazarene, who has been crucified. He was raised! He is not here! Behold, the place where they laid Him.” The Slave-Savior’s resurrection is proof that God is satisfied with what He accomplished through His death. It is also a confirmation of the effectiveness of His redeeming and life-imparting death (Acts 2:24; 3:15
3我们脱罪的能力。(林前十五17。)

4按照马可十六章七节,天使对那些妇女说,『你们要去告诉祂的门徒和彼得说,祂在你们以先往加利利去,在那里你们要看见祂,正如祂从前所告诉你们的。』天使报给这三位发现奴仆救主复活之姊妹的口信里,惟有马可的记载插入『和彼得』这辞句。这也许是由于彼得影响了本福音的内容。无论如何,这辞句指明,彼得与奴仆救主的关系特别亲密,以致连天使也加以强调。
4According to verse 7, the angel said to the women, “But go, tell His disciples and Peter that He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see Him, even as He told you.” In the angel’s message to the three women who discovered the resurrection of the Slave-Savior, the phrase “and Peter” is inserted only in Mark’s record. This is probably due to Peter’s influence on the contents of this Gospel. In any case, this phrase indicates that Peter’sin tim ate relationship with the Slave-Savior was particular, so that it was emphasized even by the angel
往加利利去
GOING INTO GALILEE
5天使在七节说,主耶稣在门徒以先往加利利去。奴仆救主尽职事,不是从犹太宗教的圣城耶路撒冷,乃是从外邦的加利利开始的。(太四~17。)照样,祂复活之后仍去加利利,而不去耶路撒冷。这有力的指明,复活的奴仆救主已经完全放弃了犹太教,为神新约的经纶引进新的时代。
5In verse 7 the angel said that the Lord Jesus was going before the disciples into Galilee. Just as the Slave - Savior began His ministry from Galilee of the Gentiles (Matt. 4:12-17), not from Jerusalem, the holy city of the Jewish religion, so also after His resurrection 12 He would still go to Galilee, not to Jerusalem. This strongly indicates that the resurrected Slave - Savior abandoned Judaism and was initiating a new era for God’secon o my of the New Testament.
6向一切受造之物传扬福音主耶稣在马可十六章九至十一节向抹大拉的马利亚显现,在十二至十三节向两个门徒显现,在十四至十八节向十一个门徒显现。祂在十五节对他们说,『你们往普天下去,向一切受造之物传扬福音。』这启示奴仆救主藉著死与复活所成就神的救赎,不仅是为著神造物里最主要的人,也是为著一切受造之物。因此,万有,无论是地上的、诸天之上的,都与神和好了,并且福音该传与天下一切受造之物。(西一20,23。)基于这点,一切受造之物都期待从败坏的奴役得著释放,得享神儿女之荣耀的自由。(罗八19~22。)
6PREACHING THE GOSPEL TO ALL THE CREATION In 16:9-11 the Lord Jesus appeared to Mary the Magdalene; in verses 12 and 13, to two of His disciples; and in verses 14 through 18, to the eleven disciples. In verse 15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all the creation.” This reveals that the redemption of God accomplished by the Slave- Savior through His death and resurrection is not only for man, the leading one in God’s creation, but for all the creation. Hence, all things, whether on earth or in the heavens, were reconciled to God, and the gospel should be proclaimed to all creation under heaven (Col. 1:20, 23). Based upon this, all the creation expects to be freed from the slavery of corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God (Rom. 8:19-22
信而受浸
BELIEVING AND BEING BAPTIZED
7主接著在马可十六章十六节对门徒说,『信而受浸的必然得救,不信的必被定罪。』信乃是接受奴仆救主,(约一12,)这不仅为著罪得赦免,(徒十43,)也为著重生,(彼前一21,23,)叫信的人在与三一神生机的联结里,(太二八19,)能成为神的儿女(约一12~13)和基督的肢体。(弗五30。)受浸乃是确认这个,一面凭著埋葬,藉著奴仆救主的死,了结旧造;另一面,凭著复起,藉著奴仆救主的复活,成为神的新造。这样的浸,比约翰所传悔改的浸进步多了。(可一4,徒十九3~5。)
7In verse 16 the Lord went on to say to the disciples, “He who believes and is baptized shall be saved, but he who does not believe shall be condemned.” To believe is to receive the Slave-Savior (John 1:12), not only for forgiveness of sins (Acts 10:43) but also for regeneration (1 Pet. 1:21, 23), so that those who believe may become the children of God (John 1:12-13) and the members of Christ (Eph. 5:30) in an organic union with the Triune God (Matt. 28:19). To be baptized is to affirm this, by being buried to terminate the old creation through the death of the Slave-Savior and by being raised up to be the new creation of God through the Slave-Savior’s resurrection. Such a baptism is much more advanced than the baptism of repentance by John (Mark 1:4; Acts 19:3-5
8信和受浸,乃是接受神完全救恩之完整步骤的两部分。受浸而不信,只是虚空的仪式;信而不受浸,只是里面得救,没有外面的确认。这二者应当并行。此外,水浸该有灵浸随著,正如以色列人在海(水)里,并在云(灵)里受浸一样。(林前十2,十二13。)马可十六章十六节不是说,不信也不受浸的必被定罪。这指明定罪只与不信有关,与不受浸无关。信就足以叫人得著救恩,脱离定罪,但还需要浸作外面的确认,使人里面的救恩得以完成。主耶稣在十六章十七至十八节接下去说,『信的人必有神迹随著他们,就是在我的名里赶鬼,说新方言,手能拿蛇,若喝了甚么致死之物,也绝不受害,手按病人,病人就必好了。』我们在这里看见,说新方言只是随著得救信徒的五种神迹之一,并不是惟一的神迹,如有些信徒所强调的。根据行传和书信里的神圣启示看,主在这里不是说,凡得救的信徒都该有这五种神迹;乃是说,每个得救的信徒可能有其中的一些神迹,未必五种都有。
8To believe and to be so baptized are two parts of one complete step for receiving the full salvation of God. To be baptized without believing is merely an empty ritual; to believe without being baptized is to be saved only inwardly without an outward affirmation of the inward salvation. These two should go together. Moreover, water baptism should be accompanied by the Spirit baptism, even as the children of Israel were baptized in the sea (water) and in the cloud (Spirit)—1 Corinthians 10:2 and 12:13. Mark 16:16 does not say “who does not believe and is not baptized shall be condemned.” This indicates that condemnation is related only to not believing; it is not related to not being baptized. Believing itself is sufficient for one to receive salvation from condemnation; yet it needs baptism as an outward affirmation for the completion of one’sin ward salvation. In 16:17 and 18 the Lord Jesus continues, “And these signs will accompany those who believe: in My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; they will pick up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it shall by no means harm them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will be well.” Here we see that speaking with new tongues is only one of the five signs that accompany saved believers. It is not the unique sign, as stressed by some believers. According to the divine revelation in the Acts and in the Epistles, what the Lord says here does not mean that every saved believer should have all five signs. It means that each saved believer may have some of these signs, not necessarily all.
奴仆救主得高举的升天
the ascension of the Slave-Savior
升天基督的各方面
FOR HIS EXALTATION Aspects of the Ascended Christ
9十九节题到奴仆救主的升天:『主耶稣对他们说完了话以后,就被接到天上,坐在神的右边。』奴仆救主升天,被神高举,乃是一个标记,说出神悦纳祂照著神新约的经纶,为著神永远的计画所作成的一切。(徒二33~36。)神将祂高举,赐给祂荣耀尊贵为冠冕,(来二9,)并那超乎万名之上的名,(腓二,)又立祂为万有的主(徒二36)和万有的头,(弗一22,)叫祂得著天上地上所有的权柄,(太二八,)管理诸天、地以及万国,使这一切一同效力,叫祂福音的服事能普及全天下。基督升天、被高举到至高之处,且被立为主、基督、召会的头,并且向召会作万有的头。不仅如此,祂也登上宝座,得著荣耀尊贵为冠冕,并且得著超乎万名之上的名。
9In verse 19 we have the ascension of the Slave - Savior: “So then the Lord, after speaking to them, was taken up into heaven and sat at the right hand of God.” The Slave-Savior’s ascension for His exaltation by God was a sign of God’s acceptance of all He had done for God’s eternal plan according to God’s New Testament economy (Acts 2:33-36). In this exaltation God crowned Him with glory and honor (Heb. 2:9), gave Him the name that is above all names (Phil. 2:9), and made Him the Lord of all (Acts 2:36) and the 9 Head over all things (Eph. 1:22), that He may have all authority in heaven and on earth (Matt. 28:18) to rule over the heavens, the earth, and the nations 18 so that they may work together for the universal spreading of His gospel. Through His ascension Christ has been exalted to the highest, He has been made the Lord, the Christ, the Head of the church, and the Head over all things to the church. Furthermore, He has been enthroned, crowned with glory and honor, and given a name that is above all names.
经历升天的基督
Experiencing the Ascended Christ
10我们要经历耶稣是主,基督,召会的头,万有的头,那位登宝座、得冠冕、并得著超乎万名之上的名的那一位,就需要在复活里。当我们在复活的实际里,我们就在赐生命的灵里。我们在那灵里,就经历复活的基督是主,是那受膏者,是向著召会作万有的头,也是召会直接的头。我们在复活的实际里,亦即在包罗万有的灵里,就看见这位基督已经得著荣耀尊贵为冠冕,并且登上了宝座,得著那超乎万名之上的名。当我们在这样的灵里,基督升天的这些方面,对我们就不再是道理,而是实际。
10In order to experience Jesus as the Lord, the Christ, the Head of the church, the Head over all, and the One enthroned, crowned, and given a name above all names, we need to be in resurrection. When we are in the reality of resurrection, we are in the life-giving Spirit. In the Spirit we experience the resurrected Christ as the Lord, the anointed One, and the Head of everything to the church and the Head directly of the church. In the reality of resurrection, that is, in the all-inclusive Spirit, we realize that this Christ has been crowned with glory and honor, that He has been enthroned, and that He has received the name that is above all names. When we are in such a Spirit, all these aspects of Christ’s ascension are not merely doctrines to us—they are realities.
11若没有赐生命的灵使基督的升天成为我们的实际,我们也许会以为升天的基督与我们的日常生活无分无关。然而,基督升天的每一方面,都该成为我们每日的经历。我们要经历基督的升天,就必须照著灵而行。当我们照著灵而行,我们就在基督的复活与升天里生活行动。这会使我们成为不一样的人。因此,我一直很强的说,基督徒的生活不是一件道理的事。基督徒生活所需要的,乃是照著那住在我们灵里,赐生命的灵而行。
11Apart from the life-giving Spirit making Christ’s ascension real to us, we may think that the ascended Christ has nothing to do with us in our daily living. But every aspect of Christ’s ascension should be part of our daily experience. If we would experience Christ’s ascension, we need to walk according to the Spirit. When we walk according to the Spirit, we are walking in Christ’s resurrection and ascension. This causes us to be a different kind of person. This is the reason I have been strong to say that the Christian life is not a matter of doctrine. What we need for the Christian life is to walk according to the life-giving Spirit who dwells in our spirit
12一九六四年我应邀向达拉斯一群基督徒交通。我在信息里指出,我们所需要的是那灵,不是道理。有些人是完全为著道理的,我的话得罪了他们,会后他们要与我争辩。但我今天要更强烈的说,我们需要更多的那灵。我们需要的不是死道理,而是赐生命的灵。我们能在那灵里,是因为我们藉著耶稣基督的复活已经蒙了重生。(彼前一3。)此外,我们也得以在升天里。在我们的经历中,天临到我们,因为那包罗万有的灵把天带给我们。因此,我们一在那灵里,就是在诸天里。
12In 1964 I was invited to speak to a certain group of Christians in Dallas. During my message I pointed out that what we need is not doctrine but the Spirit. Some who cared absolutely for doctrine were offended, and after the meeting they tried to argue with me. But today I would even be stronger in saying that we need more of the Spirit. Instead of dead doctrine, we need the life-giving Spirit. We can be in the Spirit because through the resurrection of Jesus Christ we have been regenerated, reborn (1 Pet. 1:3). We can also be in ascension. In our experience, the heavens come to us, because the all- inclusive Spirit brings the heavens to us. Therefore, when we are in the Spirit, we are in the heavens
奴仆救主藉著
the Slave-Savior’s universal spreading
13马可十六章二十节论到奴仆救主藉著门徒普传福音,说,『门徒出去,到处传道,主和他们同工,用神迹随著,证实所传的道。』复活、升天的奴仆救主,这位神的奴仆,历代以来一直藉著祂的信徒,从耶路撒冷直到地极,(徒一8,)将神的福音普传给一切受造之物;(15;)这福音还要继续广传,直到祂来,将神的国建立在地上。(路十九12,但七13~14。)
13Concerning the Slave - Savior’s universal spreading of the gospel through His disciples, 16:20 says, “But those went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word by the accompanying signs.” This preaching of God’s gospel to all the creation (v. 15) by the resurrected and ascended Slave-Savior, as the Slave of God, through His believers, began from Jerusalem and has been proceeding to the uttermost part of the earth (Acts 1:8) continuously and universally for the past centuries. It will continue to proceed until the Slave-Savior comes to set up the kingdom of God on earth (Luke 19:12; Dan. 7:13-14).
到处传道
Preaching Everywhere
14主在马可十六章十五节对门徒说,『你们往普天下去,向一切受造之物传扬福音。』然后二十节告诉我们,他们出去,到处传道。这指明我们应当出去向万民,甚至向一切受造之物,传讲奇妙的奴仆救主,祂包罗万有的死,以及祂美妙的复活。
14In 16:15 the Lord said to His disciples, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all the creation.” Then verse 20 tells us that they went out and preached everywhere. This indicates that we also should go forth to tell the nations, and even all the creation, of the wonderful Slave-Savior, His all-inclusive death, and His marvelous resurrection
许多传福音的人
Many Gospel Preachers
15我们看见,马可一章只有一位传福音的人;但我们来到本福音的末了,就看见许多传福音的人。谁能说今天有多少传福音的人?不仅如此,马可一章主要是向犹太人传讲;但在十六章的末了,乃是向一切受造之物,至少是向地上的各族传讲。我们需要在主里癫狂,才能向一切受造之物传讲福音。你们若从来没有向各民各族火热的传过福音,那意思是说,你们从来没有在主耶稣里癫狂过。
15We have seen that in chapter one of the Gospel of Mark there was only one preacher of the gospel. But when we come to the end of this Gospel, there are many preachers. Who can say how many gospel preachers there are today? Furthermore, the preaching in chapter one of Mark was mainly to the Jews, but the preaching at the end of chapter sixteen is to all the creation, that is, at least to all the different peoples on earth. In order to preach the gospel to all the creation, we may need to be beside ourselves in the Lord. If you have never been zealous in preaching the gospel to all kinds of peoples, this may mean that you may have never been beside yourself in the Lord Jesus
16我一得救,当天就蒙主呼召,我晓得我的定命就是要传主耶稣。然而,我当时是以为要在家乡的村庄传讲祂。如今,我却在这个国家,向来自五大洲的人传讲主。哦,让我们将这位奇妙的主耶稣告诉每一个人!让我们把主包罗万有的死与奇妙的复活告诉所有的人。我们不要缄默无声,让我们传扬福音、陈明真理、并供应生命。
16On the day I was saved I was called by the Lord. I knew that it was my destiny to preach the Lord Jesus. However, my understanding at the time was that I would preach Him in the villages of my homeland. Now I am in this country preaching the Lord to those from every continent. Oh, let us tell everyone about the wonderful Lord Jesus! Let us tell all people about the Lord’sa ll- inclusive death and marvelous resurrection! Let us not be silent; let us preach the gospel, present the truth, and minister life
传福音为著产生新人
Preaching the Gospel for the Producing of the New Man
17我们看过整卷马可福音之后,可以说我们经历了各种不同的医治:我们的耳朵、舌头、与眼睛都得了医治。现在,我们就有资格为主说话。我盼望督里,让祂作我们完整、宇宙、包罗万有的顶替。这样,我们就能与保罗一同作见证:『不再是我,乃是基督在我里面活著。』(加二20。)我们既已经历基督作我们的顶替,就能向万民讲说祂和祂的死与复活。
17Having passed through the Gospel of Mark, we may say that we have experienced the different kinds of healings: the healings of our ears, tongue, and eyes. Now we are qualified to speak for the Lord. I hope that into Christ as our entire, universal, all - inclusive replacement. Then we shall be able to testify with Paul, “It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me” (Gal. 2:20). Having experienced Christ as our replacement, we then shall be able to speak forth to all the nations concerning Him and His death and resurrection.
18我们感谢主,祂给我们清楚的异象,看见今世乃是为著一个目的,就是藉著传福音而产生新人。不论是世界局势、国际事务、经济、工业、教育、甚至战争,一切都是为著这件事。照启示录六章来看,四匹马的第一匹就是传福音的白马。这意思是说,白马率先,其他的马匹跟随著。传福音必须领先。今世乃是为著传福音,以产生新人。现在,我们都看见了这个异象,让我们出去,传讲基督给一切受造之物!
18We thank the Lord for giving us the clear vision that this age is for the producing of the new man through the preaching of the gospel. All things—the world situation, international affairs, the economy, industry, education, and even wars—are for this. According to Revelation 6, the first of the four horses is the white horse of gospel preaching. This means that the white horse is taking the lead, and the other horses are following. Gospel preaching must take the lead. This age is for the preaching of the gospel to produce the new man. Now that we have seen this vision, let us go forth to preach Christ to all the creation
