约十八37 ……耶稣回答说，……我为此而生，也为此来到世间，为要给真理作见证；凡属真理的人，就听我的声音。

　　提后二15 你当竭力将自己呈献神前，得蒙称许，作无愧的工人，正直地分解真理的话。

　　主的恢复乃是恢复真理的光。在已过六十年里，主将这一本圣经天天向我们开启，一章又一章，一节又一节。

　　在这个地上，目前最急切需要的，就是今时代的真理。主乃是把这传扬真理的责任，放在我们身上。虽然我们事奉的人不算太多，但若是我们能把负担拿起来，学会真理，到各地去传讲，每人都带十个人认识真理，并且成全他们作我们所作的；这样过了三、五年，我们中间就会有大量的繁殖与扩增（CWWL一九八四年第五册，五○一至五○三页）。

　　John 18:37 …Jesus answered,…For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world, that I would testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.

　　2 Tim. 2:15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, an unashamed workman, cutting straight the word of the truth.

　　The Lord’s recovery is the recovery of the light of the truth. In the past sixty years the Lord has been opening up the Bible to us day by day, chapter by chapter, and verse by verse.

　　The most urgent need on this earth today is the truth of this age. The Lord has placed the responsibility of spreading the truth upon our shoulders. Although we do not have a large number of serving ones, we should each pick up this burden to learn the truth, to preach it everywhere, and to bring ten others into the knowledge of the truth and perfect them to do what we are doing. If we do this, then in three to five years there will be a tremendous multiplication and increase among us. (CWWL, 1984, vol. 5, “Truth, Life, the Church, and the Gospel—the Four Great Pillars in the Lord’s Recovery,” pp. 383-384)

　　今天全世界都需要主的真理，而主的真理就在祂的话语里。然而很可惜，圣经这神圣的话，并没有向世人完全打开。……基督徒最多只能夸口说，神的圣言已经印成多种文字，散布在世界各地；但他们无法说，人读圣经，不管是用哪一种语言，都能真正领略其深处的奥秘。……圣经中真理的奥秘，乃是非常深奥的，需要神的灵给我们属灵的亮光，也需要我们在其上花工夫，才能挖掘其中的奥秘（参林前二10~14）。

　　主的恢复就是恢复圣经中所失去的真理。……主的恢复就在于恢复对真理的认识。

　　新约圣经一再说到，我们应当明白真理，完全认识真理。每逢提及此，保罗总是说，要完全认识真理（提前二4）。这意思是，不仅明白一点或单一方面的真理，乃是要明白全部、各面的真理。保罗又说，召会就是真理的柱石和根基（三15）。这指明在圣经中，真理如同一栋大型建筑物；不是只有一面的，乃是面面俱有的，有根基也有顶盖。今天我们若要开展主的恢复，就必须认识真理，并且会讲解真理。故此，我们必须明白真理的各方面，并且不偏不倚。

　　真理不仅有许多方面，也有许多的重点。比方圣经讲神，也讲基督，同时又讲圣灵、信徒、召会、国度、新耶路撒冷。圣经从神讲起，讲到神的创造，又讲到人的堕落，再讲神的救赎，然后讲神进入人里面，作人的生命，把人重生、圣别、更新、变化，并且模成祂自己的形像，至终叫人完全进入荣耀；其中又给我们看见信徒，和团体的召会。这团体的召会带进国度，达于终极的显出，就是新耶路撒冷在新天新地里。这些都是包罗在圣经中的真理。

　　诸如此类，都需要我们好好学习、认识，并能清楚地对人传讲（CWWL一九八四年第五册，五一四至五一六页）。

　　Today the whole earth needs the truth of the Lord that is in His Word. Regrettably, however, the Bible, the divine Word, has not been fully opened to the world…. At the most, Christians are able to boast that the holy Word of God has been published into many languages and propagated over the whole earth. Yet they are not able to say that after reading the Bible, regardless of which language, they have been able to truly understand the deep mysteries within it….The mysteries of the truths in the Bible are very deep and profound. We need the enlightening of the Spirit of God to understand them, and we also need to spend time to dig them out (cf. 1 Cor. 2:10-14).

　　The Lord’s recovery is the recovery of all the truths in the Bible that were lost….The Lord’s recovery depends upon the recovery of the knowledge of the truth.

　　The New Testament says repeatedly that we should know the truth. Moreover, when referring to this matter, Paul repeatedly says that we should come to the full knowledge of the truth (1 Tim. 2:4; 2 Tim. 2:25; 3:7; Titus 1:1). This means that we must know not just a small part or one aspect of the truth but rather the truth in its entirety and in all its aspects. Paul also said that the church is the pillar and base of the truth (1 Tim. 3:15). This implies that the truth in the Bible is like a large building that is not one-sided but complete on all sides with a foundation and a roof. If we are going to spread the Lord’s recovery today, we must know the truth and be able to expound the truth. For this reason we must know every side of the truth without any biases or particular leanings.

　　The truth not only has many sides but also includes many crucial items. For example, the Bible speaks about God, Christ, the Holy Spirit, the believers, the church, the kingdom, and the New Jerusalem. The Bible begins with God, then continues with God’s creation, man’s fall, God’s redemption, and God’s entering into man to be man’s life for man to be regenerated, sanctified, renewed, transformed, conformed to His own image, and ultimately brought fully into glory. In the midst of all these matters, the Bible also shows us the believers and the corporate church. This corporate church brings in the kingdom, consummating in the ultimate expression, which is the New Jerusalem in the new heaven and new earth. All these aspects are included in the truths of the Bible.

　　We must diligently learn all these things, obtain the knowledge of them, and be able to speak them clearly to others. (CWWL, 1984, vol. 5, “Truth, Life, the Church, and the Gospel—the Four Great Pillars in the Lord’s Recovery,” pp. 393-394)
