壹 “在主恢复里领头的同工和长老们必须领悟，主的恢复是担在他们的肩膀上。主的恢复将来如何，完全在于他们如何”（神圣奥秘的范围，二一页）： |
Ⅰ “The co-workers and the elders, who take the lead in the Lord's recovery, must realize that the Lord's recovery is resting upon their shoulders. What the recovery will be depends upon what they will be” (The Collected Works of Witness Lee, 1994-1997, vol. 4, “The Divine and Mystical Realm,” p. 99): |
一 “我相当关心所有的同工和长老。他们许多人可能对于主的恢复是什么，没有完全的领会。”（一三至一四页） |
Ａ “I am quite concerned for all the co-workers and elders. It may be that a good number of them do not have a complete understanding of what the Lord's recovery is” (p. 92). |
二 “关于主当前的恢复，我盼望你们没有一人因着你们老旧的神学，或是你们对于恢复的老旧领会而受阻。”（一四页） |
Ｂ “Regarding the Lord's present recovery, I hope that none of you would be held back by your old theology or by your old understanding of the recovery” (p. 93). |
三 在这世代末了的日子，在主回来之前，我们必须看见一个身体和一个新人的异象—林前十二12，弗四4，二15~16，四24。 |
Ｃ In the last days of this age, before the Lord will be able to return, we must see the vision of the one Body and the one new man—1 Cor. 12:12; Eph. 4:4; 2:15-16; 4:24. |
四 召会—基督的身体—乃是一个新人，为着完成神永远的定旨— 一9、11，三9，罗八29，提后一9，弗二15~16，四22~24： |
Ｄ The church, the Body of Christ, is the one new man to accomplish God's eternal purpose—1:9, 11; 3:9; Rom. 8:29; 2 Tim. 1:9; Eph. 2:15-16; 4:22-24: |
１ 召会是基督的身体，重在生命；而召会是一个新人，重在人位。 |
１ The emphasis on the church being the Body of Christ is on life, whereas the emphasis on the church being the one new man is on the person. |
２ 召会作为基督的身体，需要基督作生命；召会作为一个新人，需要基督作人位。 |
２ As the Body of Christ, the church needs Christ as its life; as the one new man, the church needs Christ as its person. |
五 圣经启示一个新人乃是一个团体、宇宙的人—弗二15，四24，西三10~11： |
Ｅ The Bible reveals that the one new man is a corporate, universal man—Eph. 2:15; 4:24; Col. 3:10-11: |
１ 我们在基督里的信徒都与基督是一，成为这个新人；因此，我们众人乃是这一个团体新人的各部分，是新人的组成分子。 |
１ We, the believers in Christ, are all one with Christ to be the new man; thus, we all are parts, components, of the corporate one new man. |
２ 一个新人是团体的神人，是所有神人的集大成；我们把所有神人摆在一起，就是一个新人。 |
２ The one new man is a corporate God-man, the aggregate of all the God-men; when we put all the God-men together, we have the one new man. |

弗二15~16 ……好把两下在祂自己里面，创造成一个新人，成就了和平；既用十字架除灭了仇恨，便借这十字架，使两下在一个身体里与神和好了。 四24 并且穿上了新人，这新人是照着神，在那实际的义和圣中所创造的。 圣经从来没有说到许多新人。圣经告诉我们只有一个新人（弗二15）。这一个新人不是个人的，而是团体的；这团体的新人乃是所有神人的集大成。我们把所有神人摆在一起，就是一个团体人。这一个团体人称为“新人”（四24，西三10），这是指新人类。亚当是旧人类，他所有的后裔与他是一，都是旧人。今天我们信基督的人，都与基督是一，成为新人（神人，一三页）。 |
Eph. 2:15-16 …He might create the two in Himself into one new man, so making peace, and might reconcile both in one Body to God through the cross, having slain the enmity by it. 4:24 And put on the new man, which was created according to God in righteousness and holiness of the reality. The Bible never says that there are many new men. The Bible tells us that there is only one new man (Eph. 2:15). This one new man is not an individual; he is a corporate man, and this corporate new man is the aggregate of all the God-men. When we put all the God-men together, we have one man. This one man is called “the new man” (4:24; Col. 3:10), referring to the new mankind. Adam was the old mankind. All his descendants are one with him to be the old man. Today we, the believers in Christ, are all one with Christ to be the new man. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 2, “The God-men,” p. 441) |

有一天，主开我的眼睛，借着以弗所书给我看见，新人不是多个的，新人是独一的。在宇宙间只有一个新人。……你和我不是单独的一个新人，你是新人的一部分，我也是新人的一部分，所有得救蒙恩的人都是新人的一部分。新人乃是独一的，而这个新人有千千万万的部分。身体只有一个，新人也只有一个；一个身体，一个新人。以弗所二章十五节所说，“好把两下在祂自己里面，创造成一个新人，”足以证明这个新人是团体的，不是个人的。 然后到了十六节就说，“既用十字架除灭了仇恨，便借这十字架，使两下在一个身体里与神和好了。”十五节是创造成一个新人，十六节是在一个身体里。这就给我们看见，前文的一个新人就是后文的一个身体；也给我们看见，身体和新人有绝对的关系。 圣经有些地方是非常的深奥，我们天然观念一点摸不着。为什么一个新人又是一个身体？为什么以弗所二章十五节说基督将两下在祂自己里面创造成一个新人，十六节却说叫两下在一个身体里与神和好了？这一定有其原因和讲究。那么身体和新人的分别在哪里呢？……首先我们要看见，身体是生命的问题，新人是人位的问题。我们大家的身体里头都有生命，没有生命就不是身体，乃是尸体。一说身体，我们了解它里头有生命。所以身体是一个生命的问题。但是一说新人呢？就是人位问题。一个人有人位。今天我的身体不需要人位，我的身体只需要生命。换一句话说，我的身体需要健康。健康是什么？就是生命。有丰富的生命、正确的生命在我里头，我这个身体就是健康的。若是我的生命出了毛病，我这个身体就要生病了。所以身体是生命的问题。可是新人乃是人位的问题。今天我这个身体要到哪里去，不是我的身体来作主张，乃是我这个人位来作主张。……有一个人位在我这个人里头，就定规说，“今天早晨这个身体要到某处来，晚上这个身体要到某处去。”在这里你就看见人位和身体里头生命的不同。人位有一个定规要到哪里去，马上身体就活动起来了。这里你就看见什么是人位，什么是生命。基督的身体是一个生命的问题，而这个新人是一个人位问题。 但是大家要知道，生命也罢，人位也罢，都是基督。这一个身体里头的生命是基督，这一个新人里头的人位也是基督。召会是基督的身体，这一个身体需要基督在里面作生命；召会也是一个新人，这一个新人也需要基督在他里面作他的人位（CWWL一九七七年第三册，三九七至四○○页）。 参读：一个身体，一位灵，一个新人，第五至八篇。 |
One day the Lord opened my eyes and showed me through the book of Ephesians that the new man is not plural. Rather, the new man is uniquely one. There is only one new man in the universe. We are not individually new men; instead, you are a part of the new man, I am a part of the new man, and all the saved ones are also parts of the new man. The new man is uniquely one, yet this new man has millions of parts. There is only one Body, and there is only one new man—one Body and one new man. Ephesians 2:15…is sufficient proof that the new man is corporate, not individual. Verse 16 says, “And might reconcile both in one Body to God through the cross, having slain the enmity by it.” The creation of the one new man is in verse 15, and the one Body is in verse 16. This shows us that the one new man in the former verse is the one Body in the latter verse, and it also shows us that the Body and the new man are absolutely related. The Bible has a few passages that are so profound that our natural mind cannot understand them at all. Why is the one new man also the one Body? Why does verse 15 say that Christ has created the two in Himself into one new man, while verse 16 says that He has reconciled both in one Body to God? There must be a reason and an explanation for this. What then is the difference between the Body and the new man? First, we must see that the Body is a matter of life, and the new man is a matter of person. Our body has life in it; without life it is not a body but a corpse. When we speak of the Body, we understand that it has life in it. Thus, the Body is a matter of life. When we speak of one new man, though, it is a matter of person. A man has a person. Today my body does not need a person; my body only needs life. In other words, my body needs to be healthy, and health is life. When I have a rich and proper life within me, my body is healthy. If my life has a problem, my body becomes sick. Therefore, the body is a matter of life. The new man, however, is a matter of person. My body cannot plan where it will go, but my person can make a plan. There is a person within me who decides, saying, “This morning this body will go to this place, and this evening this body will go to that place.” By this you can see the difference between the person and the life that is in the body. The person makes a decision about where to go, and the body immediately takes action. The Body of Christ is a matter of life, whereas the new man is a matter of person. Still, you all must know that both the life and the person are Christ. The life in this Body is Christ, and the person in this one new man is also Christ. The church is the Body, and this Body needs Christ to be in it as life. The church is also the one new man, and this one new man needs Christ to be in him as his person.
