启二一9~10 ……你来，我要将新妇，就是羔羊的妻，指给你看。我在灵里，天使带我到一座高大的山，将那由神那里从天而降的圣城耶路撒冷指给我看。

　　11　 城中有神的荣耀；城的光辉如同极贵的宝石，好像碧玉，明如水晶。”

　　神的经纶是神要成为人，为要使人在生命和性情上，但不在神格上，成为神，以产生新耶路撒冷，作三一神的扩增和彰显，直到永远。新耶路撒冷的建造乃是神将祂自己构成到人里面，使人在生命、性情和构成上与神一样，使神与人成为一个团体的实体（历代志生命读经，四五页）。

　　Rev. 21:9-11 …Come here; I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb. And he carried me away in spirit onto a great and high mountain and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, as clear as crystal.

　　God’s economy is that God would become a man to make man God in life and in nature but not in the Godhead for the producing of the New Jerusalem as the increase and expression of the Triune God for eternity. The New Jerusalem is built by God’s constituting Himself into man to make man the same as God in life, in nature, and in constitution so that God and man may become a corporate entity. (Life-study of 1 & 2 Chronicles, p. 36)

　　我们若看看今天外面的光景，就会看见缺少基督身体的建造，这身体乃是要终极完成新耶路撒冷。这就是为什么主嘱咐我释放祂神圣启示的高峰。首先，我们需要释放神成为人，为要使人在生命和性情上成为神，但无分于神格这个真理。然后我们需要释放关于新耶路撒冷的真理。

　　主既已将祂真理的这些高峰释放出来，我们就必须学习新的语言来讲说这些真理。……今天在主的恢复里，所有的同工必须与人有所不同；他们必须学习讲说这些关于神经纶的高峰真理—神成为人，使人能成为神，以新耶路撒冷为终极完成。这是何大神迹，何深奥秘（新耶路撒冷的解释应用于寻求的信徒，五三至五四页）。

　　以赛亚书里有两个简短的预言，清楚显示旧约与新约之间的连接。七章十四节说，必有童女生子，祂的名要称为以马内利。九章六节说，有一子赐给我们，祂的名要称为全能的神，永远的父。这些预言启示，神要成为人，作一个小婴孩。全能的神，永远的父，成了一个人，为要使人在生命和性情上（但不在神格上）成为神。然而，人要这样成为神，首先需要蒙救赎。以赛亚五十三章是关于基督之救赎很强的一章。那成为人的神，在祂的人性里乃是人的救赎主，为人的罪被杀。神救赎人，目的是要使蒙救赎的人在生命和性情上成为神，好使神能将祂的经纶完成于基督的身体，作基督的扩大。基督这身体要终极完成于新耶路撒冷，作神完满的彰显和扩大，直到永远。列王的历史在预表上就连于神成为人，将人救赎归回祂自己，使祂将祂所救赎的人，在生命和性情上作成神，使祂为自己得着一个宇宙团体的彰显，直到永远。简单地说，这就是神的经纶。

　　神经纶的目标是要在祂所救赎的人身上作工，使他们在生命和性情上（但不在神格上）成为神。这唯有借着、凭着、同着并在赐生命的灵里，才能完成。在主的恢复里，我们要看见基督今天乃是在复活里，并且祂在复活里乃是那是灵的基督，赐生命的灵，作经过过程之三一神的终极完成，这是很要紧的。我们有祂这包罗万有、复合的灵在我们的灵里。如今我们必须每天在我们的灵里作每件事，好叫这赐生命的灵变化我们，模成我们，至终荣化我们，使我们在生命和性情上成为神（列王纪生命读经，一五三至一五五页）。

　　If we look at today’s outward situation, we can see the lack of the building up of the Body of Christ, which consummates the New Jerusalem. This is why the Lord has charged me to release the high peaks of His divine revelation. First, we need to release the truth that God became a man so that man may become God in life and in nature but not in the Godhead. Then we need to release the truth concerning the New Jerusalem. Since the Lord has released these high peaks of His truths, we have to learn the new language to speak them. Paul and [his] co-workers…were different because of what they ministered. Today in the recovery all the co-workers must be different. They must learn to speak these high truths concerning God’s economy—that God became a man that man may become God, with the New Jerusalem as the ultimate consummation. This is a great miracle and a deep mystery. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 3, “The Application of the Interpretation of the New Jerusalem to the Seeking Believers,” pp. 247-248)

　　In the book of Isaiah two short prophecies clearly show the link between the Old Testament and the New Testament. Isaiah 7:14 says that a virgin would bring forth a son whose name would be called Immanuel. Isaiah 9:6 says that a son would be given to us and that his name would be called the mighty God and the eternal Father. These prophecies reveal that God would become a man as a little child. The mighty God, the eternal Father, became a man in order to make man God in life and in nature (but not in the Godhead). However, in order to be made God in this way, man first needed to be redeemed. Isaiah 53 is a strong chapter on the redemption of Christ. In His humanity the God who had become man was man’s Redeemer, slain for man’s sin. God redeemed man for the purpose of making the redeemed man God in life and in nature so that God can have a consummation of His economy in the Body of Christ as the enlargement of Christ. This Body of Christ will consummate in the New Jerusalem as God’s full expression and enlargement for eternity. In typology the history of the kings is linked to God’s becoming a man to redeem man back to Himself that He might make His redeemed people God in life and in nature so that He might have for eternity a universal, corporate expression of Himself. This, in brief, is God’s economy.

　　The goal of God’s economy is to work on His redeemed people in order to make them God in life and in nature but not in the Godhead. This can be accomplished only through, by, with, and in the life-giving Spirit. It is crucial for us in the Lord’s recovery to see that our Christ today is in resurrection and that in resurrection He is the pneumatic Christ, the life-giving Spirit as the consummation of the processed Triune God. We have Him as the all-inclusive, compound Spirit in our spirit. Now every day we must do everything in our spirit in order that this life-giving Spirit may transform us, conform us, and eventually glorify us that we might be made God in life and in nature. (Life-study of 1 & 2 Kings, pp. 122-123)
