神人的复制（一）

The Reproduction of the God-Man (1)
1读经：约翰福音3:6下，哥林多后书3:17-18，腓立比书1:19下，20下，21上，2:5-8，3:9-10，4:8，13。
1Scripture Reading: John 3:6b; 2 Cor. 3:17-18; Phil. 1:19b, 20b, 21a; 2:5-8; 3:9-10; 4:8, 13
2在本篇信息和下篇信息里，我们要来看神人的复制。我们会看见，神人的复制需要我们在灵里从是灵的基督重生，在魂里被是灵的基督变化，并且活基督这位神人。
2In this message and in the message following we shall consider the reproduction of the God-man. As we shall see, the reproduction of the God-man requires that we be reborn of the pneumatic Christ in our spirit, that we be transformed by the pneumatic Christ in our soul, and that we live Christ as the God-man
主如何成为赐生命的灵
HOW THE LORD BECOMES THE LIFE-GIVING SPIRIT
3人救主在过了奇妙且超绝的生活以后，就上十字架去受死。然后在复活里，祂成了赐生命的灵。（林前十五45。）基督如何在复活里，成了赐生命的灵?请注意，我们不是问，祂为何成了赐生命的灵；乃是问，祂如何、怎样成了灵。这问题的答案是：人救主乃以奇妙、包罗万有的资格，成为赐生命的灵。主耶稣是神又是人。祂过神人的生活三十三年半之久；也就是说，祂凭著神圣的生命过为人生活，为要彰显神。在这样的生活以后，祂以包罗万有者的身分，死在十字架上。
3After living a wonderful and excellent life, the Man- Savior went to the cross and died. Then in His resurrection He became a life-giving Spirit (1 Cor. 15:45). How did Christ become a life-giving Spirit in His resurrection? Notice that we are not asking why He became a life-giving Spirit, but how, in what way, He became a Spirit. The answer to this question is that the Man-Savior became a life-giving Spirit with a wonderful, all-inclusive qualification. The Lord Jesus was both God and man. For thirty-three and a half years He lived the life of a God-man; that is, He lived a human life by the divine life for the expression of God. After living this kind of life, He died on the cross as the all-inclusive One
4每当一样活的东西死去，牠的死与牠的本性相符。比方说，狗有狗的死，蚂蚁有蚂蚁的死，苍蝇有苍蝇的死。这原则也适用于人类。没没无闻之人的死轻如鸿毛，伟人的死重于泰山。主耶稣是那包罗万有者，因此祂的死是包罗万有的死。在主包罗万有的死以后，神叫祂复活了。祂乃是在这光景里，带著这样的资格，成了赐生命的灵。
4Whenever a living thing dies, the death of that thing corresponds to its nature. For example, a dog dies a dog death. Likewise, an ant dies an ant death, and a fly dies a fly death. This principle also applies to human beings. An unknown person may die an insignificant death, but a great person dies a great death. The Lord Jesus was the all-inclusive One; therefore, He died an all-inclusive death. After His all-inclusive death, the Lord was resurrected by God. It was in this condition with such a qualification that He became a life-giving Spirit
包罗万有之基督的精华
THE EXTRACT OF THE ALL-INCLUSIVE CHRIST
5赐生命的灵，实际上乃是包罗万有之基督的精华。我们在别处曾指出，（见约翰著作中帐幕和祭物的应验，第二页，）精华可以解释为：从一种植物或其他生机体提取的汁液，这汁液包含了该物浓缩的素质。精华的同义辞是『精，』就是从物质提取出来的液状素质。比方说，酒可以视为葡萄的精华或精。我们提取某种物质的素质，我们就得到那物质的精。此外，一样东西的精华总是包含那样东西的素质、元素和本质。比方说，橘子汁包含橘子的素质、元素、性质和本质。同样的，包罗万有赐生命的灵，包含了基督的一切所是，一切所经过、所完成、所达到、所得著的。
5The life - giving Spirit is actually an extract of the all - inclusive Christ. As we have pointed out elsewhere (see The Fulfillment of the Tabernacle and the Offerings in the Writings of John, p. 2), an extract may be defined as liquid extracted from a plant or other organic matter and that contains its essence in concentrated form. A synonym for extract is “spirit,” which is the essence of a substance extracted in liquid form. Wine, for example, may be regarded as an extract, or spirit, of grapes. Whenever we extract the essence of a particular substance, we get the spirit of that substance. Furthermore, an extract of something will always include the essence, elements, and substance of that thing. Suppose, for instance, that we have the extract of an orange. This extract will comprise the essence, the elements, the nature, and the substance of that orange. In a similar way, the all-inclusive life-giving Spirit comprises all that Christ is, all that He went through, and all that He accomplished, attained, and obtained.
6许多基督徒不了解那灵是包罗万有的灵。保罗在腓立比一章十九节说到『耶稣基督之灵全备的供应，』保罗在这里不是说神的灵全备的供应，乃是说耶稣基督之灵全备的供应。在腓立比一章十九节，神的灵已经成了耶稣基督的灵。这是约翰七章三十九节所说的『那灵。』这不仅是主成为肉体以前的神的灵，乃是主复活以后的神的灵，就是具有神性的圣灵与主的人性、十字架下的为人生活、钉十字架并复活调和而成的。你怎样领会耶稣与基督？耶稣是完整的神，也是真正的人。祂是成了肉体的话。我们在约翰一章一节和十四节看见，话太初与神同在，并且就是神，这话成了肉体。耶稣是神人，祂是完整的神，有真正的神性和超绝的神圣属性；祂也是真正的人，有真实的人性与完美的人性美德。那么基督是谁？基督是神所膏的耶稣，祂经过了成为肉体、为人生活、钉十字架和复活的过程。在复活里，耶稣基督成了祂自己的精华，这精华就是赐生命的灵。因为这赐生命的灵是包罗万有之基督的精华，所以这灵也是包罗万有的。
6Many Christians do not realize that the Spirit is the all-inclusive Spirit. In Philippians 1:19 Paul speaks of “the bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ.” Here Paul does not speak of the bountiful supply of the Spirit of God, but of the bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ. In Philippians 1:19 the Spirit of God has become the Spirit of Jesus Christ. This is “the Spirit” mentioned in John 7:39. This is not merely the Spirit of God before the Lord’sin carnation, but the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit with divinity, after the Lord’s resurrection, compounded with the Lord’s humanity, human living under the cross, crucifixion, and resurrection. What is your understanding of Jesus and of Christ? Jesus is both the complete God and a genuine man. He is the Word who became flesh. In John 1:1 and 14 we see that the Word that was in the beginning with God and that was God became flesh. As the God-man, Jesus was the complete God with the true divine nature and with excellent divine attributes, and a genuine man with a real human nature and with perfect human virtues. Who, then, is Christ? Christ is the God-anointed Jesus passing through the process of incarnation, human living, crucifixion, and resurrection. In resurrection Jesus Christ became an extract of Himself, and this extract is the life-giving Spirit. Because this life-giving Spirit is the extract of the all-inclusive Christ, this Spirit also is all-inclusive
7基督成了赐生命的灵，与神人的复制有关。神人怎样得以复制？乃是藉著包罗万有的灵。看见了这点，我们现在需要找出，神人怎样藉著包罗万有的灵得以复制。
7Christ’s becoming the life-giving Spirit is related to the reproduction of the God-man. How can the God-man be reproduced? The answer to this question is that the God-man is reproduced by the all-inclusive Spirit. Seeing this, we now need to find out in what way the God-man is reproduced by the all-inclusive Spirit
重生－神人藉著包罗万有之灵复制的第一步
REGENERATION—THE FIRST STEP of the reproduction of the God-man by the all-inclusive Spirit
8神人藉著包罗万有赐生命之灵复制的第一步乃是重生。在约翰三章，主耶稣对尼哥底母说到重生。主对这位有道德、有教养、热心宗教的绅士说，『你们必须重生。』（约三7。）重生乃是从另一种素质－神圣的素质－而生。主似乎对尼哥底母说，『你原来是从人的素质而生，现在你需要从另一种素质－神的素质－而生。尼哥底母，你必须从神而生。』
8The first step of the reproduction of the God-man by the all-inclusive life-giving Spirit is regeneration. The Lord Jesus spoke about regeneration to Nicodemus in John 3. To this ethical, cultured, and religious gentleman, He said, “You must be born anew” (John 3:7). To be born anew, or again, is to be born of another essence, the divine essence. The Lord seemed to be saying to Nicodemus, “You were born of the human essence, and now you need to be born of another essence—the essence of God. Nicodemus, you must be born of God
从那灵而生
Born of the Spirit
9从神而生就是从那灵而生。那灵是甚么？那灵是神的精华。事实上，这精华不仅属于神，也属于耶稣基督。使人重生的那灵乃是耶稣基督的灵。我们比较约翰三章六节与三章十四、十五节，会看见这里的那灵就是耶稣基督的精华。主耶稣在约翰三章六节说，『从那灵生的，就是灵。』如果我们要有神圣的生命，我们就必须从那灵而生，主耶稣在约翰三章十四、十五节接著说，『摩西在旷野怎样举蛇，人子也必照样被举起来，叫一切相信祂的都得永远的生命。』主在这里题到祂自己是钉十字架并复活的基督。凡相信祂的，都必得著永远的生命。得著永远的生命等于重生。换句话说：重生就是得著神圣的生命。重生，从那灵而生。是甚么意思？从那灵而生就是接受神圣的生命。在约翰三章的这些经节中，先有那灵，然后有钉十字架并复活的人子。我们比较这些经节，就看见这里的那灵乃是耶稣基督的精华。我们从其而生以得永远生命的那灵，乃是钉十字架并复活之基督的精华。钉十字架是一种『压榨，』为要产生精华。将橘子加以压榨，就得到橘子的精华－橘子汁。我们可以将基督钉十字架比喻为压橘子汁。当基督在十字架上时，祂受到了『压榨。』祂在十字架上受了压榨，出来后就是包罗万有赐生命之灵的『汁。』不仅如此，橘子的素质、元素、性质和本质怎样在橘子汁里，照样，基督的素质、元素、性质和本质也在包罗万有的灵里。乃是藉著这灵，基督这位神人得以复制。
9To be born of God is to be born of the Spirit. What is the Spirit? The Spirit is the extract of God. Actually, this extract is not merely of God; it is also of Jesus Christ. The regenerating Spirit is the Spirit of Jesus Christ. If we compare John 3:6 with John 3:14 and 15, we shall see that the Spirit here is the extract of Jesus Christ. In John 3:6 the Lord Jesus says, “That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.” If we would have the divine life, we must be born of the Spirit. In John 3:14 and 15 the Lord Jesus goes on to say, “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up; that every one who believes in Him may have eternal life.” Here the Lord refers to Himself as the crucified and resurrected Christ. Whoever believes in Him will have eternal life. Having eternal life is equal to being reborn. In other words, to be reborn is to have the divine life. What does it mean to be born again, to be born of the Spirit? To be born of the Spirit is to receive the divine life. In these verses from John 3 we first have the Spirit and then the crucified and resurrected Son of Man. As we compare these verses we see that here the Spirit is the extract of Jesus Christ. The Spirit of whom we are born to have eternal life is the extract of the crucified and resurrected Christ. Crucifixion is a “pressing” that produces an extract. When pressure is applied to an orange, we get the juice as the extract of the orange. We may compare the crucifixion of Christ to the pressing of an orange. When Christ was on the cross, He was “pressed.” After being pressed on the cross, He came forth as the “juice” of the all - inclusive life - giving Spirit. Furthermore, just as the essence, elements, nature, and substance of an orange are in the extract, so the essence, elements, nature, and substance of Christ are in the all-inclusive Spirit. It is by this Spirit that Christ, the God-man, is reproduced.
藉著呼求主名接受那灵
Receiving the Spirit by Calling on the Name of the Lord
10我们在传福音时需要告诉人，基督是赐生命的灵。我们需要告诉他们，基督在十字架上受了压榨，成为那灵。现在罪人若悔改，相信祂，并呼求祂，他们就要接受那灵。每当人呼求主耶稣，他就接受那灵，这灵实际上就是耶稣基督这包罗万有赐生命之灵的实际。行传二章有那灵的浇灌。在行传二章十七节，彼得说到神的灵浇灌在一切属肉体的人身上，引用约珥的话说，『凡呼求主名的，就必得救。』（徒二21。）因著神已经浇灌下祂的灵，人要得救就需要呼求主名。凡呼求主名的就必得救，得救实际上就是接受那灵。
10In our preaching of the gospel we need to tell others that Christ is the life-giving Spirit. We need to tell them that Christ was pressed on the cross to become the Spirit. Now if sinners repent, believe in Him, and call on Him, they will receive the Spirit. Whenever a person calls on the Lord Jesus, he receives the Spirit. This Spirit is actually the reality of Jesus Christ as the all-inclusive life-giving Spirit. In Acts 2 we have the outpouring of the Spirit. In Acts 2:17 Peter quotes Joel’sword about the pouring out of God’s Spirit upon all flesh and his word that “whoever calls on the name of the Lord, shall be saved” (Acts 2:21). Since God has poured out His Spirit, what people need to do in order to be saved is to call on the name of the Lord. Whoever calls on the Lord’s name will be saved, and to be saved is actually to receive the Spirit
11我们曾多次指出，名是指人位。耶稣是主的名，那灵是主的人位。因此，我们呼求主名，就接受祂的人位－那灵。这是得救的意义。有些基督徒反对呼求主。他们假意的说，呼求主只是喊叫或虚空的重复。然而，呼求主名并不虚空。当我们呼求主耶稣的名，我们是呼求那亲爱、包罗万有者的名，祂是超乎一切的。神已经赐给这一位那超乎万名之上的名。（腓二9。）我们能作见证，当我们呼求耶稣的名，那灵就来了。耶稣是祂的名，那灵是祂的人位，祂之所是的精华。
11As we have pointed out a number of times, the name denotes the person. Jesus is the name of the Lord, and the Spirit is His person. Therefore, when we call on the Lord’s name, we receive His person, the Spirit. This is what it means to be saved. Some Christians oppose this matter of calling on the Lord. They say falsely that this is mere shouting or vain repetition. However, calling on the Lord’s name is not vain. When we call on the name of the Lord Jesus, we call on the name of the dear, all-inclusive One, the One who is above all. God has given this One a name that is above every name (Phil. 2:9). We can testify that when we call on the name of Jesus, the Spirit comes. Jesus is His name, and the Spirit is His person, the extract of His being
12人名的实际就是人自己。因这缘故，我们叫一位在场的人的名，那人就有回应。呼求耶稣的名，原则也是一样。每当我们呼求这名，我们就得到这人位。因著那人位就是那灵，当我们呼求耶稣的名，我们就接受那灵。我们从经历中知道，当我们相信耶稣，呼求祂的名，那灵这包罗万有的人位就来作我们的生命。
12The reality of a person’s name is the person himself. For this reason, when we call the name of a particular person who is present, the person responds. The principle is the same with calling on the name of Jesus. Whenever we call on this name, we get the person. Since the person is the Spirit, when we call on the name of Jesus, we receive the Spirit. From experience we know that when we believe in Jesus and call on His name, the Spirit comes as the all-inclusive Person to be our life.
使人重生的灵
The regenerating Spirit
13主耶稣这赐生命的灵要进到我们里面来，必须经过漫长的过程。在赐生命的灵，基督包罗万有的精华里，不仅有基督所是的素质，也有祂所经过之过程的元素。主不仅来住在人类中间。祂在地上生活了三十三年半，经历了许多事。祂为童女所生，按正常、属人的方式长大。末了，祂上十字架受压榨，为要释放那灵－祂的精华。
13In order for the Lord Jesus to come into us as the life- giving Spirit, it was necessary for Him to go through a lengthy process. In the life - giving Spirit, the all - inclusive extract of Christ, there is not only the essence of what Christ is, but also the element of the process through which He has passed. The Lord did not merely come to dwell among man. He lived on earth for thirty-three and a half years, experiencing a great many things. He was born of a virgin and grew up in a normal, human way. Eventually, He went to the cross to be pressed in order to release the Spirit as His extract.
14今天这使人重生的灵，乃是包罗万有之基督的精华。这灵既是这样的精华，就包含神圣的元素连同神圣的属性，也包含属人的元素连同一切人性的美德。这灵包括主彰显神之奇妙生活的元素。这灵也包括得著拯救、复兴、恢复、改良、洗炼、圣别、加强、加力并拔高之人性美德的元素。你有这种认识么？这包罗万有赐生命的灵，包含了人救主被拔高之人性美德的元素。
14Today the regenerating Spirit is the extract of the all-inclusive Christ. As such an extract, this Spirit comprises the divine element with the divine attributes and the human element with all the human virtues. This Spirit includes the element of the Lord’s wonderful life of expressing God. The Spirit also includes the element of the rescued, restored, recovered, improved, polished, sanctified, strengthened, empowered, and uplifted human virtues. Have you ever realized this? The all-inclusive life-giving Spirit contains the element of the Man- Savior’sup lifted human virtues
那灵在我们里面运行
The Moving of the Spirit within Us
15信徒与不信的人一样，对于主耶稣怎样拯救我们，观念很天然。比方说，基督徒会说，『哦，我的脾气真使我为难！我对牠无能为力。我除了发脾气以外别无选择。主阿，帮助我！』这人向主求帮助，然后可能盼望主从天上伸出手来帮助他。有些基督徒实际上不相信基督活在我们里面；他们相信祂只是在三层天的宝座上。他们也祷告，求主帮助他们。他们以为主会怎样帮助？他们对主帮助的领会，也许不仅是天然的，甚至是迷信的。新约启示，那钉十字架、复活并升天的基督是内住的灵。我们受试诱要发脾气的时候，需要看见这点。你也许说，『主阿，帮助我，』或者只说，『主阿！』然而，你看看自己的经历，就会晓得当你呼求主名，有个东西在你里面运行，甚至与你调和。这就是赐生命的灵在你里面运行，并与你的灵调和。
15Believers as well as unbelievers have a natural concept concerning how the Lord Jesus saves us. For example, a Christian may say, “Oh, what a problem I have with my temper! I can’t do anything about it. I have no choice except to lose my temper. Lord, help me!” After calling to the Lord for help this one may expect the Lord to stretch forth His hand from the heavens and help him. Some Christians actually do not believe that Christ lives in us; they believe that He is merely on the throne in the third heaven. Nevertheless, even they will pray for the Lord to help them. How do they think the Lord will help them? Their understanding of the Lord’s help may be not only natural but even superstitious. The New Testament reveals that the crucified, resurrected, and ascended Christ is the indwelling Spirit. We need to realize this when we are tempted to lose our temper. You may say, “Lord, help me,” or you may simply say, “Lord!” If you consider your experience, you will realize that when you call on the Lord’s name, something moves within you and even mingles with you. This is the life-giving Spirit moving in you and mingling with your spirit
16求主帮助我们，这当然没有错。但是这样的祷告会打岔我们，使我们离开内住的灵。如果我们这样祷告，我们可能盼望主的帮助会从三层天上而来，也可能感觉我们需要等候祂的帮助来到。然而当我们呼求主名，晓得祂是那住在我们里面赐生命的灵，我们就会感觉祂在我们里面运行，并与我们调和。我们经历这事，是因为在我们里面运行，并与我们调和的那一位，乃是赐生命的灵，祂是包罗万有之基督的精华。我们只要呼求主名，就能感觉那在我们里面运行奥秘、包罗万有的精华。
16Of course, there is nothing wrong with asking the Lord to help us. But this kind of prayer can distract us from the indwelling Spirit. If we pray in this way, we may expect the Lord’s help to come from the third heaven and may feel that we need to wait for His help to arrive. But when we call on the Lord’s name, realizing that He is the life-giving Spirit dwelling within us, we shall sense Him moving in us and mingling with us. We experience this because the One who moves in us and mingles with us is the life-giving Spirit as the extract of the all-inclusive Christ. Simply by calling on the Lord’s name we can sense the mysterious, all- inclusive extract moving in us
包罗万有之灵里的元素
The Elements in the All-inclusive Spirit
17作为基督精华的那灵，包含最高标准道德的元素。当那灵在我们里面运行时，最高人性美德的元素也在我们里面运行。主拯救我们不发脾气，不是以诸天界里宝座上那位升天者的身分，神奇的作甚么。祂乃是以住在我们里面者的身分，在我们里面运行，并使祂自己与我们调和，藉此拯救我们。如果我们转向祂这位在我们灵里的，呼求祂的名，祂就会带著祂的一切元素，在我们里面运行。祂是这样来拯救我们的。我们说到主这位灵在我们里面运行，藉此拯救我们，这不是迷信。吃药怎样不是迷信，照样，经历那灵在我们里面的运行也不是迷信。一个人吃了药，药会在他里面起作用，杀死病菌，这不是外面的杀死，不是在外面作甚么来杀死病菌。相反的，这是里面的杀死，是吃了处方的药的结果。同样的，包罗万有的灵包含主包罗万有之死的元素，藉这元素，我们里面属灵的病菌就被了结了。包罗万有赐生命的灵也有一种元素，使人有新生的起头。那灵包含这元素，因为在那灵里有基督复活的元素。复活胜过各种死亡。因为死亡不能拘禁复活的元素，所以死亡不能拘禁那灵。为著包罗万有之灵里复活的元素，阿利路亚！
17The Spirit as the extract of Christ contains the element of the highest standard of morality. As the Spirit moves within us, the element of the highest human virtues also moves in us. The Lord does not rescue us from our temper by doing something miraculously as the ascended One on the throne in the heavens. Instead, He rescues us by moving in us and mingling Himself with us as the One who indwells us. If we turn to Him as the One in our spirit and call on His name, He will move in us with all His elements. In this way He saves us. What we are saying concerning the Lord’ss aving us by moving in us as the Spirit is not a superstition. Just as taking medicine is not superstitious, so experiencing the moving of the Spirit in us is not superstitious. When a person takes medicine, that medicine will work in him to kill germs. This is not an outward killing, the attempt to kill the germs by doing something outwardly. On the contrary, this is an inward killing, a killing that results from taking a prescribed dose of medicine. In a similar way, the all-inclusive Spirit contains the element of the Lord’sa ll-inclusive death, and by this element the spiritual germs in our being are terminated. The all-inclusive life-giving Spirit also has the element of germination. The Spirit contains this element because in the Spirit there is the element of Christ’s resurrection. Resurrection overcomes every form of death. Because death cannot hold the element of resurrection, death cannot hold the Spirit. Hallelujah for the element of resurrection in the all-inclusive Spirit
18不论我们领会不领会包罗万有之灵里的元素，事实上，这些元素已经藉著那灵生到我们里面。我们从父母出生时，生来就有人的元素。同样的，在我们呼求那亲爱、包罗万有者之名的那一天，包罗万有的灵就进到我们里面，使我们从祂而生。现在祂连同祂的一切元素，都住在我们里面。
18Whether or not we understand the elements in the all-inclusive Spirit, it is nonetheless a fact that these elements have been born into us through the Spirit. When we were born of our parents, we were born with the human elements. In like manner, on the day we called on the name of the dear, all-inclusive One, the all-inclusive Spirit came into us, and we were born of Him. Now He with all His elements dwells within us.
在我们的灵里从是灵的基督而生
born of the pneumatic Christ in our spirit
19神人复制的第一步是：是灵的基督以祂神圣的生命和性情，在我们的灵里重生我们。我喜欢『是灵的基督』这辞。因著约翰三章六节的那灵是包罗万有之基督的精华，祂实际上就是是灵的基督。在这节圣经里，主耶稣不是说从神的灵或圣灵而生，祂乃是说从那灵而生。那灵把我们引向是灵的基督。
19The first step in the reproduction of the God-man is that we be reborn of the pneumatic Christ in our spirit with His divine life and nature. I like the term “pneumatic Christ.” Since the Spirit in John 3:6 is the extract of the all-inclusive Christ, He is actually the pneumatic Christ. In this verse the Lord Jesus does not speak of being born of the Spirit of God or of the Holy Spirit; He speaks of being born of the Spirit. The Spirit introduces us to the pneumatic Christ
20是灵的基督是甚么？是灵的基督就是复活以后成为赐生命之灵的基督。我们已经在我们的灵里，从是灵的基督，以祂神圣的生命和性情而生。
20What is the pneumatic Christ? The pneumatic Christ is Christ after resurrection being the life-giving Spirit. We have been born of the pneumatic Christ in our spirit with His divine life and nature
