经历关于三一神之膏油涂抹的教导

Experiencing the Teaching of the Anointing Concerning the Triune God
1读经：约翰一书二章十八至二十三节。
1Scripture Reading: 1 John 2:18-23
给小孩子们的话
A WORD TO THE YOUNG CHILDREN
2使徒约翰在约壹二章十三节给小孩子们，就是那些在神圣生命里非常幼稚的信徒，写了非常简单的话：『小孩子们，我写信给你们，因为你们认识父。』在二章十八至二十七节，约翰给小孩子们写了很长的话，为要确证他所已经写给他们的。这进一步的话，在积极一面论到膏油的涂抹；在消极一面论到敌基督者。在二章十八节，约翰说，『小孩子们，如今是末时了；你们曾听见，那敌基督的要来，现在已经有好些敌基督的出来了，从此我们就知道如今是末时了。』这里的『小孩子们』就是十三节的小孩子们，是18受信者中的第三班人。二章十八至二十七节强调生命里的认识，（约壹二20～21，）加强十三节对这班人所说『因为你们认识父』的话。约翰在约壹二章二十节对小孩子们说到膏油涂抹的事：『你们有从那圣者来的膏油涂抹，并且你们众人都知道。』膏油涂抹就是内住复合之灵的运行并工作，出埃及三十章二十三至二十五节涂抹的油、复合的膏，是这灵的完全豫表。篇。）我们在重生时，这从那圣者来的包罗万有赐生命的灵就进到我们里面，并且永远住在我们里面，（约壹二27，）凭著这灵，小孩子们认识了父，（约壹二13，）并且晓得真理。（约壹二21。）
2In 2:13 the apostle John writes a very simple word to the young children, those believers who are very young in the divine life: “I write to you, young children, because you have known the Father.” In verses 18 through 27 John writes a much longer word to the young children in order to confirm what he has already written to them. On the positive side, this further word is concerned with the anointing; on the negative side, it is concerned with the antichrists. In verse 18 John says, “Young children, it is the last hour, and even as you heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come; whereby we know that it is the last hour.” The words “young children” here refer to the young children in verse 13 as the third class of the recipients of this Epistle. Verses through 27 emphasize the knowledge in life (vv. 20-21) and strengthen the word, “because you have known the Father,” spoken to the young children in verse 13. In verse 2 0 John speaks to the young children concerning the anointing: “And you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all know.” The anointing is the moving and working of the indwelling compound Spirit, which is fully typified by the anointing oil, the compound ointment, in Exodus 163). This all-inclusive life-giving Spirit from the Holy One entered into us at the time of our regeneration and abides in us forever (v. 27). It is by this Spirit that the young children have known the Father (v. 13) and know the truth (v. 21).
3约翰对小孩子们所说关于膏油涂抹的话，与他们生命的长大很有关系。约翰这里的话也指明，所有在召会生活里的圣徒，都需要接受膏油涂抹的教导。
3John’sword to the young children concerning the anointing has much to do with their growth in life. John’sword here also indicates that all the saints in the church life need to receive the teaching of the anointing
膏油的涂抹教导我们
THE ANOINTING TEACHING US
关于神圣三一的事
CONCERNING THE TRINITY
4你若仔细读约壹二章十八至二十七节，会看见膏油涂抹的教导主要是教导我们神圣三一的奥秘。我多年来一直释放关于膏油涂抹的教导的信息。我在那些信息里强调一个事实：膏油涂抹在凡事上，就是在我们基督徒日常生活里一切的事上教导我们。在本篇信息里，我想来看较狭义的膏油涂抹的教导，就是膏油涂抹教导我们一切关于神圣三一的事。换句话说，我在本篇信息里所关切的，不是较广泛的应用这原则，乃是照著这些经节的上下文，正确的解释膏油涂抹的教导。我越从上下文来看这些经节，就越有把握：说膏油涂抹的教导乃是论到神圣的三一，这是绝对准确的。
4If you read verses 18 through 27 carefully, you will see that the teaching of the anointing is mainly a matter of teaching us the mystery of the Trinity. For years, I have been giving messages on the teaching of the anointing. In those messages I emphasized the fact that the anointing teaches us concerning all things, that is, concerning everything in our daily Christian life. In this message I would like to consider the teaching of the anointing in the more restricted sense of the anointing teaching us all things concerning the Trinity. In other words, in this message I am concerned not with the broader application of the principle, but with the proper interpretation of the teaching of the anointing according to the context of these verses. The more I consider these verses in context, the more assurance I have that it is absolutely accurate to say that the teaching of the anointing concerns the things of the Trinity.
复合膏油的元素
THE ELEMENTS OF THE COMPOUND OINTMENT
5我们已经看见，膏油涂抹是包罗万有、复合、赐生命之灵（就是经过过程的三一神）的运行。这灵应验了出埃及三十章所启示，复合之膏的豫表。在这复合的膏里有若干不同的元素，这些元素就是膏的成分。正如油漆有若干不同的元素，涂抹的灵也有不同的元素，这些元素包括经过过程的三一神和祂的活动。三一神已经经过成为肉体、为人生活、钉十字架、复活和升天。这些都是祂活动里的步骤。这一切步骤都成了复合、赐生命之灵的元素。所以，涂抹的灵实际上是三一神并祂活动的复合物。涂抹的灵包括神性和人性，也就是神圣的性情和属人的性情。这样一位复合的灵包括成为肉体、为人生活、钉十字架、复活和升天。这一切都是出埃及三十章复合之膏所豫表，复合之灵的元素。
5We have seen that the anointing is the moving of the all-inclusive, compound, life-giving Spirit, who is the processed Triune God. This Spirit is the fulfillment of the type of the compound ointment revealed in Exodus 30. In this compound ointment there are a number of different elements which are the ingredients of the ointment. Just as paint may have a number of different elements, so the anointing Spirit also has different elements. These elements include the processed Triune God and His activities. The Triune God has passed through incarnation, human living, crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension. These are the steps in His activity. All these steps have become elements of the compound, life-giving Spirit. Therefore, the anointing Spirit is actually a compound of the Triune God and His activities. The anointing Spirit includes divinity and humanity, the divine nature and the human nature. Such a compound Spirit includes incarnation, human living, crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension. All these are elements of the compound Spirit typified by the compound ointment in Exodus 30
6膏油涂抹实际上就是膏油的运行，而这膏油乃是一种复合物。油不是复合物，因为油只包含一种元素。但复合的膏包含若干不同的元素。在复合的灵里，有父、子、那灵、神性、人性、成为肉体、为人生活、基督死的功效、祂复活的大能和祂的升天。膏油涂抹是这复合之灵连同祂一切元素的运行。只有这膏油涂抹，只有这复合之灵的运行，能将三一神教导我们。
6The anointing is actually the moving of the ointment, and the ointment is a compound. Oil, however, is not a compound, for it contains a single element. The compound ointment, on the contrary, contains a number of different elements. In the compound Spirit we have the Father, the Son, the Spirit, divinity, humanity, incarnation, human living, the effectiveness of Christ’s death, the power of His resurrection, and His ascension. The anointing is the moving of this compound Spirit with all His elements. Only this anointing, only the moving of this compound Spirit, can teach us the Triune God.
7油漆是复合之膏最好的说明。要认识一种油漆的元素，最好的方法是甚么？就是买一罐那种油漆，把一些涂在家具上。凭著涂抹油漆，你就得知油漆的元素。这就是说，只有油漆本身能教导你油漆的所是。除了油漆，你无从得知油漆的元素。同样的，复合的灵乃是将祂自己当作『油漆』涂抹在我们身上，藉此教导我们关于三一神和祂活动的事。我们也可以说，复合之灵的元素，教导我们各样关于三一神和祂活动的事。涂抹的灵乃是三一神同祂一切活动的组成，如今这复合的灵教导我们关于神圣三一的事。膏油涂抹的主观教导
7Paint is the best illustration of the compound ointment. What is the best way to know the elements of a particular paint? The best way is to buy a can of that paint and apply some paint to a piece of furniture. By applying the paint, you will be taught concerning the elements of the paint. This means that only the paint itself can teach you what the paint is. Apart from the paint there is no way for you to learn about the elements of the paint. In a similar way, it is by applying Himself to us as the “paint” that the compound Spirit teaches us concerning the Triune God and His activities. We also may say that the elements of the compound Spirit teach us the various matters concerning the Triune God and His activities. The anointing Spirit is the composition of the Triune God with all His activities, and now this compound Spirit teaches us concerning the things of the Trinity. THE SUBJECTIVE TEACHING OF THE ANOINTING
8惟有藉著三一神成为涂抹的灵，我们才会受到关于三一神和祂活动的教导。这种教导不是客观的，乃是非常主观的。三一神已经成为涂抹的灵，祂的涂抹现今就在我们里面。这主观的涂抹，就是三一神同祂一切活动之组成的运行，现在能彀教导我们关于三一神和祂活动的事。所以，乃是这样的膏油涂抹教导我们关于三一神的事。三一神不仅已经与祂身位的元素神性、父、子、灵─复合，也与祂活动的元素─成为肉体、为人生活、钉十字架、复活和升天复合。这一切元素都已经复合成为复合的灵，这灵的涂抹教导我们关于神圣三一的事。
8Only through the Triune God becoming the anointing Spirit can we be taught concerning the Triune God and His activities. This kind of teaching is not objective; rather, it is very subjective. The Triune God has become the anointing Spirit and His anointing is now within us. This subjective anointing, the moving of the composition of the Triune God with all His activities, can now teach us the things concerning the Triune God and His activities. Therefore, it is such an anointing that teaches us the things concerning the Triune God. The Triune God has been compounded not only with the elements of His Person—divinity, the Father, the Son, and Spirit—but also with the elements of His activities— incarnation, human living, crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension. All these elements have been compounded to become the compound Spirit whose anointing teaches us concerning the things of the Trinity
被浸入三一神里
BAPTIZED INTO THE TRIUNE GOD
9圣经里关于三一神的启示与经历28:19很有关系。例如，主耶稣在马太二十八章十九节对祂的门徒说，『所以你们要去，使万民作我的门徒，将他们浸入父、子、圣灵的名里。』文生（M.R.Vincent）在他的『新约字研』一书里说，在马太二十八章十九节里，名相当于人位。因此，将人浸入父、子、灵的名里，意思就是将人浸入三一神的人位里。正如人的名字指明一个人，神圣的名字照样也指明神圣的人位。将人浸入三一神的名里，就是将人放在三一神的人位里。
9The revelation in the Bible concerning the Triune God is very experiential. For instance, in Matthew the Lord Jesus said to His disciples, “Go therefore and disciple all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” In his Word Studies in the New Testament M. R. Vincent says that the name in Matthew 28:19 is equivalent to the Person. Hence, to baptize people into the name of the Father, the Son, and the Spirit means to baptize them into the Person of the Triune God. Just as a human name denotes a human person, the divine name denotes the divine Person. To baptize people into the name of the Triune God is to put them into the Person of the Triune God.
10文生又说，『浸入神圣三一的名里，含示与祂属灵且奥秘的联合。』介系词『入』含示我们与三一神之间生机的联结。被浸入三一神的人位里，意思就是被放在与祂生机的联结里。我们这些已经浸入三一神人位里的人，现今在生机上与三一神是一，三一神也在生机上与我们是一。
10Vincent says also, “Baptizing into the name of the Holy Trinity implies a spiritual and mystical union with Him.” The preposition “into” implies an organic union between us and the Triune God. To be baptized into the Person of the Triune God means to be placed into an organic union with Him. As those who have been baptized into the Person of the Triune God, we are now organically one with the Triune God, and He is organically one with us
三一神教导我们
THE TRIUNE GOD TEACHING US
关于祂自己的事
CONCERNING HIMSELF
11现今在生机上与我们是一的三一神，正教导我们关于祂自己的事。这教导是主观的，且是在经历上的。一天过一天，我们在与三一神生机的联结里，我们就享受祂，经历祂，在祂里面，同著祂并凭著祂生活。这生活乃是一种对于三一神的事持续不断的教导。我们能见证，我们的确在日常生活里
11The Triune God, who is now organically one with us, is teaching us concerning Himself. This teaching is subjective and experiential. Day by day, as we are in the organic union with the Triune God, we enjoy Him, we experience Him, and we live in Him, with Him, and by Him. This living is a constant teaching of the things concerning the Triune God. We can testify that we certainly enjoy the Triune God in our daily life
12享受三一神。
12
13我们可以用吃东西为例，说明以享受和经历三一神的方式学知三一神的事。要认识某种食物，最好的方法就是吃那种食物。你若吃那种食物，藉著你所吃的，你就得著关于那种食物的教导；这不仅是关于食物的客观课程，乃是藉著经历对食物有主观的认识。你越吃一种食物，就越认识那种食物。这认识不是道理的，乃是经历的。同样的，我们藉著享受并经历三一神，就认识了祂。我们仅仅凭著道理，不可能认识三一神。但我们藉著享受并经历祂，就能认识祂。当三一神成为我们的享受和经历时，祂的运行就是我们里面的膏油涂抹。这种领会使我们能给膏油涂抹一个正确的定义：膏油涂抹乃是三一神的运行，成了我们里面的享受和经历。
13We may use eating food as an illustration of learning the things of the Triune God in the way of enjoying and experiencing Him. The best way to know a certain kind of food is to eat that food. If you eat the food, you will be taught concerning the food by the very food you eat. This is not merely an objective lesson concerning food; it is a subjective knowing of the food through experience. The more you eat a particular food, the more you will come to know it. This knowledge is not doctrinal; it is experiential. In a similar way, we come to know the Triune God by enjoying and experiencing Him. It is impossible for us to know the Triune God merely by doctrine. But we can know Him by enjoying and experiencing Him. When the Triune God becomes our enjoyment and experience, His moving is the anointing within us. This understanding enables us to give a proper definition of the anointing: the anointing is the moving of the Triune God becoming our inward enjoyment and experience
认识父、子、灵是一
KNOWING THAT THE FATHER, SON, AND SPIRIT ARE ONE
14照著圣经，我们教导父、子、灵是一。以赛亚九章六节说，有一子赐给我们，但是祂名称为永在的父，或永远的父。这符合约翰福音所记载主论到祂自己和父的话。主耶稣说，祂（子）在父的名里来。（约五43。）主从来没有说到祂自己是子又是父，但主确说，祂是子，在父的名里来。主在约翰十四章也说，我们看见了祂，就是看见了父。（约十四。）不仅如此，主在这一章说，祂在父里面，父在祂里面。（约10:30十四10～11。）所以祂在约翰十章三十节说，父与子原是一。我们承认子，就连父也有了。（约壹二23。）而且祂也是那灵。（林后三17。）我们有祂住在我们里面，也就有了父和那灵。你里面不是有主耶稣么？的确有。你里面不是也有父和那灵么？当然也有。这就是说，父、子、灵都在你里面。那么，我们里面有多少位？我们从经历知道，我们里面只有一位。住在我们里面的这一位，乃是三一神，父、子、灵。
14According to the Bible, we teach that the Father, the Son, and the Spirit are one. Isaiah 9:6 says that a Son has been given to us, yet His name is called the everlasting Father, or the eternal Father, or Father of eternity. This matches the Lord’sword concerning Himself and the Father recorded in the Gospel of John. The Lord Jesus said that He, the Son, came in the name of the Father (John 5:43). The Lord never said of Himself that He was the Son and the Father. But He did say that He was the Son coming in the Father’s name. In chapter fourteen of the Gospel of John the Lord also says that if we see Him, we see the Father (v. 9). Furthermore, in this9 chapter the Lord says that He is in the Father and the Father is in Him (vv. 10-11). So He says in John the Father and the Son are one. When we confess Him, we also have the Father (1 John 2:23). Furthermore, He is also the Spirit (2 Cor. 3:17). When we have Him dwelling in us, we also have both the Father and the Spirit. Do you not have the Lord Jesus in you? Surely you do. Do you not also have the Father and the Spirit in you? You certainly have also both the Father and the Spirit in you. This means that the Father, the Son, and the Spirit are all in you. How many, then, do we have within us? From experience we know that we have only One within us. This One who dwells in us is the Triune God, the Father, the Son, and the Spirit.
三一神成为我们的经历和享受
THE TRIUNE GOD BECOMING OUR EXPERIENCE AND ENJOYMENT
15我们需要对这事实有深刻的印象：膏油涂抹乃是我们所享受并经历之三一神的运行。在我们里面成为我们享受并经历之三一神的运行，就是膏油涂抹。约壹二章这里的膏油涂抹，指我们对三一神的经历；就是这经历教导我们关于神圣三一的事。约翰在这里论膏油涂抹的话是写给小孩子的，就是在神圣生命里最幼稚的人。甚至最幼稚的信徒也在他们里面经历了主，他们能从他们的经历见证，住在他们里面的那一位是父、子、灵。
15We need to be impressed with the fact that the anointing is the moving of the Triune God enjoyed and experienced by us. The moving of the Triune God within us who becomes our enjoyment and experience is the anointing. The anointing here in chapter two of 1 John refers to our experience of the Triune God. It is this experience that teaches us the things concerning the Trinity. John’sword concerning the anointing here was written to the young children, to those who are the youngest in the divine life. Even the youngest believers have experienced the Lord within them. They can testify from their experience that the One who lives in them is the Father, the Son, and the Spirit
对三一神的『品尝』
THE “TASTE” OF THE TRIUNE GOD
16我们需要对三一神有正确的经历。从我们经历中的『品尝，』我们认识关于神圣三一的事。例如，你怎么知道糖的味道是甜的还是苦的？知道的方法是品尝一点。那个味道会教导你，糖是苦的还是甜的。同样的，我们对三一神的经历、品尝，会教导我们关于祂的事。
16We need the proper experience of the Triune God. From the “taste” in our experience we know the things concerning the Trinity. For example, how do you know whether sugar tastes sweet or bitter? The way to know is to taste a little of it. The taste will teach you whether it is bitter or sweet. In a similar way, our experience, our taste, of the Triune God will teach us concerning Him
17约翰在约壹二章十八至二十七节的用意是要警告小孩子们，关于敌基督者和他们异端的教训。约翰在这些经节里好像在说，『不要听那一切关于基督身位的假教训。你们里面有一位教师，这位教师就是膏油的涂抹。不要注意敌基督者所说的话，乃要听你们对三一神作膏油涂抹在你们里面运行的经历。』为著经历关于三一神之膏油涂抹的教导，我们赞美主！
17John’sin tent i on in 2:18-27 is to warn the young children about the antichrists and their heretical teachings. In these verses John seems to be saying, Do not listen to all these false teachings about the Person of Christ. You have a Teacher within you, and this Teacher is the anointing. Do not give heed to what the antichrists say, but listen to your experience of the Triune God’s moving as the anointing within you.” Praise the Lord for the experience of the teaching of the anointing concerning the Triune God
