奴仆救主福音服事的内容（二）

The Contents of the Slave-Savior’s Gospel Service (2)
1读经：马可福音一章十四至四十五节。马可福音的头两段论到福音的开始与奴仆救主的引进，（一1～，）以及奴仆救主为著福音广传的职事。（一14～十52。）在前一篇信息里，我们开始来看一章十四至四十五节所启示福音服事的内容。我们看见这服事包括五件事：传扬福音、（14～20、）教训真理、（21～22、）赶逐污鬼、（23～28、）医治病人、（29～39、）与洁净痳疯。（40～45。）我们已经看过关于传扬福音的一些细节，在本篇信息中我们继续来看教训真理、赶逐污鬼、医治病人、与洁净痳疯。
1Scripture Reading: Mark 1:14-45 The first two sections of the Gospel of Mark are concerned with the beginning of the gospel and the initiation of the Slave - Savior (1:1-13) and the 13 ministry of the Slave-Savior for the spreading of the gospel (1:14 — 10:52). In the foregoing message we began to consider the contents of the gospel service as revealed in 1:14-45. We saw that this service includes five matters: preaching the gospel (vv. 14-20), teaching the truth (vv. 21-22), casting out demons (vv. 23-28), healing the sick (vv. 29-39), and cleansing the leper (vv. 40-45). Having considered in some detail the preaching of the gospel, we shall go on in this message to cover the teaching of the truth, the casting out of demons, the healing of the sick, and the cleansing of the leper.
教训真理
teaching the truth
2马可一章二十一至二十二节说，『他们走到迦百农，耶稣随即在安息日进入会堂施教。众人都惊讶祂的教训，因为祂教训他们，像有权柄的人，不像经学家。』二十一节题到会堂。会堂是犹太人聚会的地方，他们在那里诵读并研习圣经。（路四16～17，徒十三14～15。）
2Mark 1:21-22 says, “And they go into Capernaum. And immediately on the Sabbath, entering into the synagogue, He taught. And they were astounded at His teaching, for He taught them as One having authority and not as the scribes.” Verse 21 speaks of the synagogue. A synagogue is a meeting place where the Jews read and learn the Holy Scriptures (Luke 4:16-17; Acts 13:14-15
3主在会堂带著权柄教训众人。人堕落到罪中，就中断了与神的交通，使所有的人蒙昧无知，不认识神。这样的无知，首先带来黑暗，然后带来死亡。奴仆救主是世界的光，（约八12，九5，）来到黑暗之地，加利利，如同大光照亮坐在死亡阴影中的人。（太四12～16。）祂的教训释放出亮光的话，光照在死亡黑暗里的人，使他们得著生命的光。（约一4。）我们已经看见奴仆救主在服事时所行的第一件事是传福音。现在，神的奴仆作堕落之人的奴仆救主，在服事里所行的第二件事，就是施教，（可二13，四1，六2，6，30，34，十1，十一17，十二35，十四49，）将人从撒但的黑暗里，带到神圣的光中。（徒二六18。）
3In the synagogue, the Lord Jesus taught the people with authority. Man’s fall into sin broke his fellowship with God. As a result, man became ignorant of the knowledge of God. Such ignorance issued first in darkness and then in death. The Slave-Savior, as the light of the world (John 8:12; 9:5), came to Galilee, the land of darkness, where people were sitting in the shadow of death, and He came as a great light to shine upon them (Matt. 4:12-16). His teaching released the word of light to enlighten those in the darkness of death so that they might receive the light of life (John 1:4). We have already seen that the first thing the Slave-Savior did in His service was to preach the gospel. Now the second thing the Slave of God as the Slave-Savior to fallen men did in His service was to carry out such teaching (Mark 2:13; 4:1; 6:2, 6, 30, 34; 10:1; 11:17; 12:35; 14:49) to bring people out of satanic darkness into the divine light (Acts 26:18
4在神的主宰权柄下，主耶稣在加利利长大；而祂开始祂的传扬与教训，也不是从犹太地，乃是从加利利。按照圣经的记载，加利利不仅是受藐视的地区，也是一个黑暗之地。马太四章十五至十六节论到这事说，『西布伦地和拿弗他利地，沿海的路，约但河外，外邦人的加利利：那坐在黑暗中的百姓，看见了大光；并且向那些坐在死亡的境域和阴影中的人，有光出现，照著他们。』这指明主耶稣行过加利利时，祂是照在黑暗中的大光，照耀坐在死亡境域里的人。奴仆救主的教训特别就是大光的照耀。从祂口里出来的每一句话，都是照耀的话语。因此，祂教训人的时候，光就照在他们身上。这样，主的教训光照了黑暗里的人。
4It was of God’s sovereignty that the Lord Jesus was raised in the region of Galilee and also that He began His preaching and teaching not from Judea, but from Galilee. According to the biblical record, Galilee was not only a despised region, but was also a place of darkness. Concerning this, Matthew 4:15-16 says, “Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, way of the sea beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations: The people sitting in darkness saw a great light, and to those sitting in a region and shadow of death, to them light sprang up.” This indicates that when the Lord Jesus walked through Galilee, He was a great light shining in the darkness and shining upon the people sitting in the region and shadow of death. In particular, the teaching of the Slave - Savior was the shining of a great light. Every word that issued out of His mouth was an enlightening word. Therefore, while He was teaching the people, the light was shining upon them. In this way the people in darkness were enlightened by the Lord’ste aching.
5按照马可一章二十二节，那些在会堂里的人很惊讶主的教训，说祂教训他们，像有权柄的人，不像经学家。自命为经学家的人，凭自己将虚空的知识教训人，没有权柄，也没有能力；但神所授权的奴仆，凭神将实际教训人，不仅有属灵的能力征服人，也有神圣的权柄使人服从神圣的管治。
5According to Mark 1:22, those in the synagogue were astounded at the Lord’ste aching and said that He taught as One having authority and not as the scribes. The self-appointed scribes, teaching vain knowledge by themselves, had no authority and no power. But this God-authorized Slave, teaching realities by God Himself, had not only spiritual power to subdue people but also divine authority to subject them to the divine ruling
赶逐污鬼
casting out demons
6一章二十三至二十八节里有一件赶逐污鬼的事例。有一个被污灵附著的人喊叫，主耶稣斥责他说，『不要作声，从这人身上出来！』（23～25。）这污灵不是堕落的天使，乃是鬼，（可一32，，39，路四33，）就是一种活类脱体的灵。这些活类曾生存在亚当以前的世代，因参与撒但的背叛而受了神的审判，成为脱体的灵。（见创世记生命读经第二篇。）堕落的天使，在空中与撒但一同作工；（弗二2，六11～12；）这些污灵，就是鬼，在地上与撒但一同行动。二者都为著撒但的国，邪恶的在人身上活动。鬼附著人，表征撒但霸占神为祂目的所造的人。这位来消除撒但作为（约壹三8）的奴仆救主所行的第三件事，作祂对神服事的一部分，乃是将这些鬼从鬼附的人身上赶出去，（可一34，39，三15，六7，13，十六17，）使他们从撒但的辖制中得著释放，（路十三16，）脱离撒但黑暗的权势，（徒二六18，西一13，）进入神的国里。（可一15。）马可福音记载五件事例，以说明这点。（一23～27，五2～20，七25～30，九17～27，十六9。）
6In 1:23-28 we have a case of the casting out of demons. A man with an unclean spirit cried out, and the Lord Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet, and come out of him!” (vv. 23-25). This unclean spirit was not a fallen angel; this spirit was a demon (vv. 32, 34, 39; Luke 4:33), one of 34 the spirits of the living creatures who lived in the preadamic age and were judged by God when they joined Satan’s rebellion (see Life-study of Genesis, Message 2). The fallen angels worked with Satan in the air (Eph. 2:2; 6:11-12), and these demons, the unclean spirits, move with him on the earth. Both act evilly upon man for the kingdom of Satan. The possession of people by demons signifies Satan’s usurpation of man, whom God created for His purpose. The Slave - Savior came to destroy the works of Satan (1 John 3:8), and the third thing He did as a part of His service to God was to cast out these demons from the possessed people (Mark 1:34, 39; 3:15; 6:7, 13; 16:17) so that they might be delivered from Satan’s bondage (Luke 13:16), out of Satan’s authority of darkness (Acts 26:18; Col. 1:13), into God’skin gdom (Mark 1:15). Five cases are recorded in this Gospel to illustrate this (1:23-27; 5:2-20; 7:25-30; 9:17-27; 16:9).
7马可一章二十七节说，『众人都希奇，以致彼此讨论说，这是甚么事？是个新鲜的教训！祂用权柄命令污灵，污灵就听从了祂。』这节说，将鬼赶出去的，不是能力，乃是权柄。奴仆救主为著祂的服事，不仅有神的权柄教训人，（22，）也有神的权柄赶鬼。许多年前，一位传教士倪维斯博士（Dr.Nevius）写了一本书，描述在中国所发生许多鬼附的事例。中国各处都有人被鬼附，倪维斯博士在他的书里详述这些事例。今天，在美国这样一个文化发达、文明高尚的国家，似乎不再有鬼附的事。然而，撒但非常狡猾，他寻找不同的方式附在人身上。他很狡猾，他有办法在高度文明的国家里附在人身上，正如他在未开发国家中附在人身上一样。因此，今天即使在文化最发达的国家里，撒但也能用不同的办法附在人身上。因这缘故，我们传福音时，不只该有正确的教训，也要赶逐污鬼，就是赶出那些撒但用来霸占人的东西。我们要作这件事，就必须学习如何祷告，好得著能力，甚至得著权柄，以赶出霸占的元素。我们一旦得著了这能力与权柄，我们的传讲与教训就会带著能力，赶出仇敌霸占的元素。
7Mark 1:27 says, “And they were all amazed, so that they discussed among themselves, saying, What is this? A new teaching! With authority He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him.” This verse speaks not of the Lord’s power, but of His authority to cast out demons. For His gospel service, the Slave-Savior had divine authority not only to teach people (v. 22), but also to cast out demons. Many years ago, a missionary named Dr. Nevius wrote a book describing many cases of demon possession in China. Throughout China there were instances of demon possession, and in his book Dr. Nevius gives the details of these cases. Today, in a highly cultured and civilized country like the United States, apparently there no longer are cases of demon possession. However, Satan is subtle, and he seeks to possess people in different ways. In his subtlety, he has a way to possess people in highly civilized countries just as he has a way to possess the people in undeveloped countries. Therefore, even today, in the most highly cultured nation, Satan is able to use different means to possess people. For this reason, in our preaching of the gospel we should have not only the proper teaching, but also the casting out of demons, the casting out of those things used by Satan to possess people. In order to do this, we must learn how to pray to receive the power, even the authority, to cast out the possessing element. Once we receive this power and authority, then our preaching and teaching will come forth with the power to cast out the possessing element of the enemy
8我们需要有能力，好赶出仇敌所使用属撒但的元素，他利用这些元素霸占现代化国家的人。撒但，就是狡猾的蛇，非常聪明，他晓得如何用现代的办法来霸占人。在没有文化的国家里，他可能用没有文化的方法来霸占人。但在现代、开化的国家，他会使用现代和文化的方法来霸占人。譬如，在先进的大专院校，撒但用知识来霸占人。我们不能单单靠著普通的传讲和教训，来推翻仇敌对人的霸占。我们要赶出今天的鬼，我们的传讲与教训就必须带著神的权柄与能力，这能力与权柄只能在耶稣的名里运用出来。因此，我们要呼喊主名，在祂的名里，藉著祂的名运用神圣的权柄。我们若能运用神圣的权柄，我们的传讲和教训就有能力和权柄，赶出仇敌邪恶霸占的元素。所以，赶逐污鬼是福音服事内容的第三项。
8We need the power to cast out the satanic element used by the enemy to possess people in today’s modern countries. Satan, the subtle serpent, is very clever, and he knows how to possess people in modern ways. In an uncultured country, he may use an uncultured means to possess people. But in a modern, cultured country, he will use modern, cultured means to usurp people. For example, in the leading colleges and universities, Satan will possess people in an intellectual way. We cannot defeat the enemy’s possession of mankind simply by ordinary preaching and teaching. In order to cast out today’s demons, in our teaching and preaching we must have divine authority and power. This power and authority can be exercised only in the name of Jesus. Therefore, we need to call on the Lord’s name and exercise divine authority in and through His name. If we do this, then in our preaching and teaching there will be power and authority to cast out the evil possessing element of the enemy. The casting out of demons, therefore, is the third item of the content of the gospel.
医治病人
healing the sick
9在一章二十九至三十九节，主医治病人。三十节说，『西门的岳母正发烧躺著，有人立刻向耶稣说到她。』这烧可象征人不受约束的脾气，不正常而无节制。
9In 1:29-39 we have the Lord’she al ing of the sick. Verse 30 says, “And Simon’s mother-in-law was lying down with a fever, and immediately they tell Him about her.” This fever may signify a person’sun bridled temper, a temper that is abnormal
10按照三十一节，主来到西门的岳母那里，扶她起来，烧就退了。按照三十四节，『耶稣治好了许多患各样疾病的人。』疾病是罪的结果，也是人因著罪，在神面前不正常光景的标记。奴仆救主拯救罪人所行的第四件事，就是医治他们身体和属灵的疾病，使他们恢复正常，（一34，三10，六5，，56，）能服事祂，这是祂福音服事的另一部分。马可福音记载了九件事例，说明这样的医治。（一30～31，40～45，二3～12，三1～5，五22～43，七32～37，八22～26，十46～52。）今天每一个堕落的人都是有病的。许多人身体有疾病，而所有的人都有属灵的疾病。因著每一个堕落的人都有属灵的病，所以我们这班在地方召会里的人，必须学习像医生一样来传扬福音并教训真理。这意思是说，我们教训、传扬时，应该给人属天的药方、神圣的药物，好医治他们。我们中间所有的圣徒都应该学习这样传扬福音、教训真理，好叫人得医治。我们教训、传扬的时候，应该给他们属灵药物的注射，好医治他们。今天灵恩运动的人，非常注重神奇的医治，就是注重身体得医治的事。然而，我们更需要顾到属灵的医治，过于身体的医治。在召会里的人要受装备到一个程度，以致在传扬、教训的时候，能将属灵的医药供应人，使他们在属灵上得医治。
10According to verse 31, the Lord came to Simon’s mother - in - law and raised her up, and the fever left her. According to verse 34, “He healed many who were ill with various diseases.” Sickness is an issue of sin and a sign of man’s abnormal condition before God because of sin. The fourth thing the Slave-Savior did to rescue sinners, as another part of His gospel service, was to heal their sick condition both physically and spiritually and restore them to normal so that they 13 might serve Him (1:34; 3:10; 6:5, 13, 56). Nine cases are recorded in this Gospel to illustrate such healing (1:30-31, 40-45; 2:3-12; 3:1-5; 5:22-43; 7:32-37; 8:22-26; 10:46-52). Today every fallen human being is sick. Many are sick physically, and all are sick spiritually. Because every fallen person is spiritually sick, we in the local churches must learn to preach the gospel and teach the truth like physicians. This means that in our teaching and preaching we should give people a heavenly prescription, a divine medicine for their healing. All the saints among us should learn how to preach the gospel and teach the truth in such a way that people are healed. As we are teaching and preaching, we should give others an injection of spiritual medicine that will heal them. Among those in the Pentecostal movement today, a great deal of emphasis is placed on miraculous healing. This emphasis i son physical healing. However, we need to care more for spiritual healing than for physical healing. The church people should be so equipped that in their preaching and teaching spiritual medicine is supplied to people in order that they may be spiritually healed.
11按照马可一章三十二节，主在黄昏，日落的时候，治好了许多患病的人。第二天清早，『耶稣起来，到旷野地方去，在那里祷告。』（35。）主祷告与神交通，为祂福音的服事，寻求神的旨意和喜悦。（38。）奴仆救主福音的服事，不是向神独立，照自己的意思行，乃是与神是一，照神的旨意和喜悦，完成神的定旨。
11According to Mark 1:32, in the evening the Lord healed many who were ill. Then very early the next morning, “He went out and went away to a desolate place, and there He prayed.” The Lord prayed in order to fellowship with God and to seek His will and pleasure for His gospel service (v. 38). The Slave-Savior did not do the evangelical service by Himself independent of God or according to His own will. Rather, He carried out this service according to God’s will and pleasure by being one with God to fulfill His purpose.
12按照一章三十七节，西门和同伴告诉主：『众人都在找你。』主对他们说，『我们可以往别处去，到邻近的村镇，我也好在那里传道，我原是为此出来的。』（38。）奴仆救主身为神的奴仆，在祂的福音上服事神，不是要成就自己的旨意，或人的题议，乃是要成就差祂之神的旨意。（约六38，四34。）
12According to 1:37, Simon and those with him said to the Lord, “All are seeking You.” The Lord said to them, “Let us go elsewhere into the nearby towns, that I might preach there also, for for this purpose I came out.” As the Slave of God to serve God in His gospel, the Slave-Savior did not do His own gospel service to fulfill either His own will or the proposal of others. Instead, He fulfilled the will of God who had sent Him (John 6:38; 4:34
洁净痳疯
cleansing the leper
13在马可一章四十至四十五节，有洁净痳疯的事例。四十节说，『有一个患痳疯的来到耶稣跟前，恳求祂，跪下向祂说，你若肯，必能叫我洁净了。』『患痳疯的』，描绘出典型的罪人。痳疯是最污染人、破坏人的疾病，比热病严重得多，（30，）使患者与神与人隔离。按照律法，患痳疯的人因著他的不洁，应当从民中隔离，人不能摸他。（利十三～46。）按照圣经的事例，痳疯来自背叛与不服。米利暗成了患痳疯的，是由于她背叛神的代表权柄。（民十二1～10。）乃缦的痳疯得了洁净，是由于他的顺从。（王下五1，9～14。）堕落的人类由于对神的背叛，在神眼中都成了患痳疯的。由于痳疯使患者与神与人隔离，所以洁净患痳疯的，表征使罪人恢复与神与人的交通。按马可一章的记载，这是奴仆救主福音服事完成的部分。一章四十一至四十二节说，『耶稣就动了慈心，伸手摸他，说，我肯，你洁净了罢。痳疯立即离开他，他就洁净了。』主耶稣动了慈心。奴仆救主从祂的爱所发出的『慈心』和『肯』，对绝望的痳疯患者真是亲切、宝贵。主伸手摸他，表明祂对困苦可怜、无人敢摸的痳疯患者，既同情又亲近。按照四十二节，痳疯立即离开他，他就洁净了。这节说，患痳疯的不仅得了医治，也得了洁净。痳疯不仅和别的疾病一样需要医治，并且因其污秽不洁的性质，也和罪（单数）一样需要洁净。（约壹一7。）
13In 1:40-45 we have the case of the cleansing of a leper. Verse 40 says, “And a leper comes to Him, entreating Him, and falling on his knees says to Him, If You are willing, You can cleanse me!” A leper portrays a typical sinner. Leprosy is the most contaminating and damaging disease, much more serious than fever (v. 30), isolating its victim both from God and from men. According to the law, a leper should be excluded from the people because of his uncleanness. No one could touch him (Lev. 13:45-46). According to the scriptural examples, leprosy comes from rebellion 45 and disobedience. Miriam became leprous because of her rebellion against God’s deputy authority (Num. 12:1-10). Naaman’s leprosy was cleansed because of his obedience (2 Kings 5:1, 9-14). All fallen human beings have become leprous in the sight of God because of their rebellion. Because leprosy isolated its victim from both God and man, to cleanse the leper signifies to recover the sinner to fellowship with God and with men. This was the consummating part of the Slave-Savior’s gospel service according to the record of this chapter. Mark 1:41 and 42 say, “And moved with compassion, stretching out His hand, He touched him and said to him, I am willing; be cleansed! And immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed.” The Lord Jesus was moved with compassion. The Slave-Savior’s compassion and willingness issuing from His love were dear and precious to the hopeless leper. The Lord stretched out His hand and touched the leper. This showed His sympathy and intimacy with the miserable leper, whom no one dared to touch. According to verse 42, immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed. This verse says that the leper was not only healed, but also cleansed. Leprosy not only requires healing as do other diseases; it also requires cleansing, like sin (1 John 1:7), because of its filthy and contaminating nature.
14我们都需要对奴仆救主福音服事所包括的五件事有深刻的印象：（一）传扬，（可一14～15，38～39，）报喜信给受辖制悲惨的人；（二）施教，（21～22，）以真理神圣的光，照亮在黑暗中无知的人；（三）赶鬼，（25～，）消除撒但对人的霸占；（四）医治人的病情，（30～31，）使人能服事奴仆救主；（五）洁净患痳疯的，（41～42，）恢复罪人与神与人的交通。何等美妙、超绝的工作！我们传福音时，也必须操练传扬、教训、赶鬼、医治和洁净。如果我们的传扬是无力的，虽然有些人会得救，但他们不会得洁净。他们得了赦罪，可以说是得救了，但是罪的玷污性质可能没有洗去。因此，我们要慎重的考量一个事实，就是主福音服事的这幅图画，结束于患麻疯的得了洁净。主传扬、教训、赶鬼、医治病人，最后洁净痳疯。这样的洁净乃是主福音服事内容完成的部分。主耶稣洁净了患痳疯的以后，严严的嘱咐那人，对他说，『你要当心，甚么都不可告诉人，只要去把身体给祭司察看，又要为你得了洁净，献上摩西所规定的礼物，对他们作证据。』（44。）这样的嘱咐，在奴仆救主福音服事的整个记载中，是相当特出的，（五43，七36，九9，）这与以赛亚四十二章二节所豫言祂安静的性格相似。祂要绝对照著神的定旨而行，使祂的工作都在这行动的界限之内；祂不为人的兴奋和宣传所鼓动。奴仆救主这位神的奴仆，在祂全部的尽职中，都不喜欢显扬。
14We all need to be deeply impressed with the five matters comprised in the Slave-Savior’s gospel service: preaching (vv. 14-15, 38-39) to announce the glad tidings to the miserable people in bondage; teaching (vv. 21-22) to enlighten the ignorant ones in darkness with the divine light of the truth; casting out demons (v v. 2 5-2 6) to nullify Satan’s usurpation of man; 26 healing man’s sick condition (vv. 30-31) that man may serve the Slave-Savior; and cleansing the leper (vv. 41-42) to recover sinners to the fellowship with God and with men. What a wonderful and excellent work! In our gospel preaching we must also be exercised to preach, teach, cast out demons, heal, and cleanse. If our preaching is weak, some may be saved, but they may not be cleansed. They may be saved in the sense of receiving the forgiveness of sin, but they may not be cleansed from the contaminating nature of sin. Therefore, we need to seriously consider the fact that this picture of the Lord’s gospel service concludes with the cleansing of the leper. The Lord preached, taught, cast out demons, healed the sick, and eventually cleansed the leper. This cleansing is the ultimate consummation of the contents of the Lord’s gospel service. After cleansing the leper, the Lord Jesus sternly charged him and said, “See that you say nothing to anyone, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded for a testimony to them.” Such a charge throughout the record of the Slave-Savior’s evangelical service is quite striking (5:43; 7:36; 9:9). It is similar to what was prophesied concerning His quiet character in Isaiah 42:2. He wanted His work to be done within the limit of a move that was absolutely according to God’s purpose, not promoted by man’sex cite ment and propaganda. Throughout His ministry the Slave-Savior, as the Slave of God, did not like publicity.
15按照马可一章四十五节，得洁净的人并没有照著主的话去行。『但那人出去，广事宣扬，把这事传开了，以致耶稣不能再明明的进城，只好在外面旷野地方，人从各处都就了祂来。』我们在这里看见，人照著天然观念的活动，阻挠奴仆救主照著神定旨而有的服事。
15According to 1:45, the cleansed one did not carry out the Lord’s word. Instead, “Going out, he began to proclaim it much and spread abroad the matter, so that He could no longer enter openly into a city, but He was outside in desolate places; and they came to Him from everywhere.” Here we see that man’s activity according to the natural concept frustrates the Slave- Savior’s service according to God’s purpose.
