为着一个新人,包罗万有、延展无限的基督顶替文化
« 第五周 »
照着那在耶稣身上是实际者学基督,借此过一个新人的生活,而不是过我们文化的生活
Living the Life of the One New Man instead of Our Culture by Learning Christ as the Reality Is in Jesus
« 周 纲目 »
贰 一个新人的生活,该与耶稣所过的生活完全一样;为着一个新人作为团体的神人,我们需要过神人的生活—腓一19~21上,三10,弗四20~21,参约壹四17和注5:
Ⅱ The living of the one new man should be exactly the same as the living of Jesus; for the one new man as the corporate God-man, we need to live the life of a God-man—Phil. 1:19-21a; 3:10; Eph. 4:20-21; cf. 1 John 4:17 and footnote 5:
一 基督的人性生活,就是人将神活出,在人性的美德里彰显神的属性;祂的人性美德被神圣的属性充满、调和并浸透—路一26~35,七11~17,十25~37,十九1~10:
A Christ’s human living was man living God to express the attributes of God in the human virtues; His human virtues were filled, mingled, and saturated with the divine attributes—Luke 1:26-35; 7:11-17; 10:25-37; 19:1-10:
1 主耶稣在地上时,虽是人,却因神活着—约六57,五19、30,六38,八28,七16~17。
1 When the Lord Jesus was on earth, though He was a man, He lived by God—John 6:57; 5:19, 30; 6:38; 8:28; 7:16-17.
2 主耶稣在一切事上活神并彰显神;祂无论作什么,都是神从祂里面并借着祂作出来的—十四10。
2 The Lord Jesus lived God and expressed God in everything; whatever He did was God’s doing from within Him and through Him—14:10.
3 马可福音启示,主耶稣所过的生活乃是完全照着并为着神新约的经纶。
3 The Gospel of Mark reveals that the life the Lord Jesus lived was absolutely according to and for God’s New Testament economy.

  约六57 活的父怎样差我来,我又因父活着……。

   五30 我从自己不能作什么;我怎么听见,就怎么审判;我的审判也是公平的,因为我不寻求自己的意思,只寻求那差我来者的意思。

   八28 ……我不从自己作什么;我说这些话,乃是照着父所教训我的。

  主耶稣是神人,有神性连同神圣属性,作祂的内容与实际,为着彰显神。这位神人有神的素质、神的性情和神的属性。祂是真正的人,有真实的人性和完美的人性美德,以彰显神。然而,为着彰显神,祂必须有神作祂的内容与实际。我们可以……用手套作例子。手套彰显手。但手套若要彰显手,必须有手作内容与实际。这位神人是“手套”也是“手”,因祂有人性作容器,也有神性作内容(路加福音生命读经,六○三页)。
  John 6:57 As the living Father has sent Me and I live because of the Father…

  5:30 I can do nothing from Myself; as I hear, I judge, and My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will but the will of Him who sent Me.

  8:28 …I do nothing from Myself, but as My Father has taught Me, I speak these things.

  As the God-man, the Lord Jesus has the divine nature with its divine attributes to be His content and reality for the expression of God. The God-man has the essence of God, the nature of God, and the attributes of God. He is a genuine man with the real human nature and the perfect human virtues to express God. However, in order to express God, He must have God as His content and reality…. We may use the illustration of a glove. A glove expresses the hand. But if a glove is to express the hand, it must have the hand as its content and reality. The God-man is both the “glove” and the “hand, ” for He has both humanity as the container and divinity as the content. (Life-study of Luke, p. 522)

  现在我们接着来看人救主的神人生活。这是一个真人的生活,却不是凭着人的生命—人的心思、意志、情感—在人的美德里彰显人。

  主耶稣在约翰五章三十节说,“我从自己不能作什么;……我不寻求自己的意思,只寻求那差我来者的意思。”在六章三十八节祂接着说,“因为我从天上降下来,不是要行我自己的意思,乃是要行那差我来者的意思。”……真正说来,我们的意志代表我们的全人。……心思仅仅是在思想上代表我们这人,意志却是在行为上代表我们这人,或我们的魂。你也许思想了许多事,但你作了多少?我们也许想过一百件事,只作成两件。……主耶稣不寻求自己的意思,也不行自己的意思,指明祂过为人生活时,不是凭着自己的心思、意志、情感生活。这就是说,祂不是凭着自己的生命生活。这里的“生命”等于我们这人,而我们这人是由我们的心思、意志、情感组成的。人救主,这位神人,过着为人的生活,但祂不凭着自己的心思、意志、情感生活。

  主耶稣凭着神的心思、意志、情感过着真正之人的生活—在神的属性里彰显神。……祂来不是要行自己的意思,乃是要行神的意思。这就是说,祂来过人的生活,不是凭着人的生命,乃是凭着神的生命。祂凭着神的心思、意志、情感生活,在神的属性里彰显神。这些属性乃是包含在祂的人性美德里,调和在祂的人性美德里。

  主的神人生活构成祂作人救主的资格。同时,这生活构成祂之于信徒的模型。……这模型是为着信徒里面神人的“大量生产”—复制(路加福音生命读经,六○四至六○六、六○八页)。

  我们在马可福音看见一位神人,祂的生活是完全照着神新约的经纶,并为着神新约经纶的。……主耶稣钉死、复活、升天,并将跟从祂的人带进那死、复活与升天,借此就产生了新人作神国的实际。首先,这新人产生召会;然后,这新人在来世时要发展为千年国。至终,新人要在新天新地里终极完成于新耶路撒冷。……马可福音陈明一位神人,祂一步一步照着神的经纶生活、行动、举止并工作(马可福音生命读经,五○五、五一二至五一四页)。

  Let us now go on to consider the Man-Savior’s God-man living. This is the living of a genuine man, but not by man’s life—man’s mind, will, and emotion—to express man in man’s virtues.

  In John 5:30 the Lord Jesus said, “I can do nothing from Myself; … I do not seek My own will but the will of Him who sent Me.” In John 6:38 He went on to say, “I have come down from heaven not to do My own will but the will of Him who sent Me.” In a very real sense, our will represents our whole being…. The mind… represents our being only in thought; the will represents our being, or our soul, in its doings. You may have thought about many things, but how many of those things have you done? Perhaps out of a hundred matters we have thought, only two have been accomplished. The fact that the Lord Jesus did not seek or do His own will indicates that while He was living as a man, He was not living by His own mind, will, and emotion. This means that He was not living by His own life. Here “life” equals our being, and our being is composed of our mind, will, and emotion. The Man-Savior, the God-man, lived as a man, but He did not live by His own mind, will, and emotion.

  The Lord Jesus had a genuine man’s living by God’s mind, will, and emotion—to express God in God’s attributes…. He came not to do His own will but to do God’s will. This means that He came to live as a man not by man’s life, but by God’s life. He lived by God’s mind, will, and emotion to express God in God’s attributes. These attributes are contained in and mingled with His human virtues.

  The Lord’s God-man living constituted His qualification to be the Man-Savior and…constituted a prototype to His believers …for the “mass production, ” the reproduction, of the God-man in the believers. (Life-study of Luke, pp. 523-524, 526)

  In the Gospel of Mark we see a person, the God-man, who lived a life that was fully according to and for God’s New Testament economy. Through His death, resurrection, and ascension, and by bringing His followers into that death, resurrection, and ascension, the Lord Jesus has brought forth the new man as the reality of the kingdom of God. First, this new man issues in the church. Then, in the coming age, the new man will develop into the millennium. Ultimately, in the new heaven and the new earth, the new man will consummate in the New Jerusalem. The Gospel of Mark presents the person of the God-man, the One who lived, acted, moved, and worked step by step according to God’s economy. (Life-study of Mark, pp. 445, 452-453)
