属灵争战的需要,以及神的子民编组成军,预备好争战
The Necessity of Spiritual Warfare and God's People Formed into an Army Ready for Battle
« 周 纲目 »
五 在民数记三十一章十三至五十四节,我们看见一幅神那已经编组成军,预备争战之百姓中间同心合意的美丽图画—31节:
E In Numbers 31:13-54 we see a beautiful picture of the one accord among God's people who had been formed into an army ready for battle—v. 31:
1 在各类人中间的整个光景,乃是平安、喜悦与和谐的,因为他们都同心合意—徒一14。
1 The entire situation among the different categories of people was peaceful, pleasant, and harmonious because they were all in one accord—Acts 1:14.
2 在召会里真正的同心合意,乃是实行基督身体的一,就是那灵的一 —弗四3~6:
2 The genuine one accord in the church is the practice of the oneness of the Body, which is the oneness of the Spirit—Eph. 4:3-6:
a 同心合意是指在我们内里的所是里,在我们的心思和意志里的和谐—徒一14,太十八19。
a One accord refers to the harmony in our inner being, in our mind and will—Acts 1:14; Matt. 18:19.
b 同心合意乃是在我们全人里面是一,结果我们在外面的说话上也是一 —罗十五5~6。
b To be in one accord is to be one in our whole being, and this results in our being one in our outward speaking—Rom. 15:5-6.
c 我们要同心合意,就需要同有一个心和一条路;这一个心和一条路就是同心合意—耶三二39。
c In order to be in one accord, we need to have one heart and one way; this one heart and one way are the one accord—Jer. 32:39.
d 为着主的行动,众召会需要同心合意;我们都该说一样的话,吹同样的号,教导相同的事,并且有同样的实行—书一16~18,六1~16,徒二42,四24、32,林前四17,七17,十一16,十四34,提前一3~4,六3。
d For the Lord's move, all the churches need to be in one accord; we should all voice the same thing, trumpet the same thing, teach the same thing, and be the same in practice—Josh. 1:16-18; 6:1-16; Acts 2:42; 4:24, 32; 1 Cor. 4:17; 7:17; 11:16; 14:34; 1 Tim. 1:3-4; 6:3.
六 在神在祂神圣三一里的祝福之下,也在神人摩西的祝福之下,神的军队预备好去取得美地—民六22~27,林后十三14,申三十16,三三1。
F God's army was prepared and ready to take the good land under the blessing of God in His Divine Trinity and also under the blessing of Moses, the man of God—Num. 6:22-27; 2 Cor. 13:14; Deut. 30:16; 33:1.

  徒一14 这些人同着几个妇人,和耶稣的母亲马利亚,并耶稣的兄弟,都同心合意,坚定持续地祷告。

  弗四3~4 以和平的联索,竭力保守那灵的一:一个身体和一位灵……。

  罗十五6 使你们同心合意,用同一的口,荣耀我们主耶稣基督的神与父。

  主对祂的身体所渴望的乃是一。……当召会出现时,就有需要实行这个一。实行真正的一乃是同心合意。……〔这〕不只是我们聚在一起的事。……我们的一乃是基督生机身体的一,……〔就是〕三一神与蒙救赎并被变化之人的调和;因为身体是这样的调和,这身体本身就是一。三一神的三者—父、子、灵—乃是这一的三个神圣因素,而这三个神圣因素与一个人性因素相调和,终极成为身体。

  我们所有的一乃是完成的一,就是那灵的一〔弗四3~4〕。我们都有那灵在我们的“银行账户”里,就是在我们的灵里(罗八9、16)。……但我们可能没有开“一的支票”,因为我们可能没有留在灵里,反而留在我们的心思里。当一位弟兄祷告时,我们可能在心思里分辨这位弟兄的祷告是真的,还是在其中有隐藏的企图。因此,我们对他的祷告可能不说“阿们”。在这种情形里,就没有一的实行。同心合意事实上乃是使用一,也就是使用我们所承受的(长老训练第十册,三五至三六、五六页)。
  Acts 1:14 These all continued steadfastly with one accord in prayer, together with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.

  Eph. 4:3-4 Being diligent to keep the oneness of the Spirit in the uniting bond of peace: One Body and one Spirit…

  Rom. 15:6 That with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

  What the Lord desire[s] in His Body is oneness….When the church came into being, there was the need of the practice of this oneness. The practice of the genuine oneness is the one accord,…not merely a matter of our meeting together….Our oneness is the oneness of the organic Body of Christ, … [which] is a mingling of the Triune God with His redeemed and transformed people. Because it is such a mingling, the Body itself is the oneness. The three of the Triune God—the Father, the Son, and the Spirit—are three divine factors of this oneness, and these three divine factors are mingled with one human factor, consummating in the Body.

  The oneness that we have is the accomplished oneness, the oneness of the Spirit [Eph. 4:3-4]. We all have the Spirit in our”bank account,” that is, in our spirit (Rom. 8:9,16), …but we may not write”checks of oneness” because we may not remain in the spirit. Instead, we may remain in our mind. When a certain brother prays, we may be in our mind discerning whether that brother's prayer is genuine or whether there is hidden intention in his prayer. Thus, we may not say Amen to his prayer. In such a situation there is no practice of oneness. The one accord actually is the using of the oneness, which is the using of our possession. (CWWL, 1989, vol. 4,”Elders' Training, Book 10,” pp. 359-360, 373-374)
信息选读  
  〔在〕行传一章,有一百二十个人同心合意,坚定持续地祷告(14~15上)。他们众人同有一个心思,要得着从上头来的能力,为他们所爱、所跟随那钉死、复活并升天的主作见证。

  林前一章十节说,我们要说一样的话。也要在一样的心思和一样的意见里,彼此和谐。我们如何能说一样的话,有一样的心思和意见?整卷哥林多前书给我们看见,这一样的话就是基督,这一样的心思和意见也是基督。我们在生活中,以基督作我们的中心和一切,我们所说的、所想的、所领会的就都是基督;这就是同心合意,就是合一的实行。

  再者,腓立比二章二节也说,“要思念相同的事,有相同的爱,魂里联结,思念同一件事。”什么是思念相同的事?什么又是思念同一件事?我们把整卷腓立比书都读过,尤其是第三章,就知道那是指对基督主观的认识和经历说的。

  合一的实行牵涉到我们的心思,我们的爱,也牵涉到我们所说的话。……若是要思想,考虑一下,这是不是基督,然后再说,就没有难处了。若是爱圣徒,问问自己,这样的爱有没有等次、高低或厚薄,以受主调整。说话也是这样,是基督才说,不是基督就不要说。我里面有很重的负担,我们都愿意这里的召会蒙恩、得福,但不要忘了诗篇一百三十三篇,神所命定那永远生命的福,乃是在弟兄和睦同居上。……我们要蒙神祝福,就一定要实行合一,而实行合一的路就是同心合意(主所渴望的合一与同心并祂所喜悦的身体生活与事奉,一二至一六页)。

  By the time of Acts 1, there were one hundred twenty people praying steadfastly in one accord (vv. 14-15a). All of them had one mind, which was to receive power from on high and to testify of the crucified, resurrected, and ascended Lord, whom they loved and followed.

  First Corinthians 1:10 says that we have to speak the same thing and to be attuned in the same mind and in the same opinion. How can we speak the same thing and have the same mind and the same opinion? The whole book of 1 Corinthians shows us that this same speaking is Christ, and the same mind and same opinion are also Christ. In our daily life, if we take Christ as our center and everything, what we speak, think, and understand will all be Christ. This is the one accord, which is the practice of oneness.

  Furthermore, Philippians 2:2 says,”Think the same thing, having the same love, joined in soul, thinking the one thing.” What is it to think the same thing? And what is it to think the one thing? After reading through the whole book of Philippians, and especially after reading through chapter 3, we can see that this refers to the subjective knowledge and experience of Christ.

  The practice of oneness touches our mind, our love, and our speaking…. If we would first consider and think a little before we speak and would ask if it is Christ or not, there would be no problem. If we love the saints, we should ask ourselves if our love has different classes, degrees, or depths, and we should be adjusted by the Lord accordingly. The same is true with our speaking. We should speak only if our speaking is Christ; otherwise, we should not speak. I have a heavy burden within me. We all want the church here to receive grace and blessing. But do not forget Psalm 133. The commanded blessing of the Lord, which is life forever, is upon the brethren dwelling together in oneness….In order for us to receive God's blessing, we must practice the oneness, and the way to practice the oneness is by the one accord. (CWWL, 1990, vol. 2,”The Oneness and the One Accord according to the Lord's Aspiration and the Body Life and Service according to His Pleasure,” pp. 73-76)
