接受、经历并享受基督作我们的王、我们的主、我们的头和我们的丈夫,为着建造基督的身体,以终极完成新耶路撒冷
Taking, Experiencing, and Enjoying Christ as Our King, Our Lord, Our Head, and Our Husband for the Building Up of the Body of Christ to Consummate the New Jerusalem

三 现今传输到我们里面,神那超越浩大的能力,乃是超越的基督自己作三一神的四重大能;(林前一24;)正常、真正、正确并真实的召会来自于这四重的大能—复活的大能、升天的大能、归服的大能和归一的大能—以建造召会作祂的身体(弗一19~23):
C God's surpassingly great power that is presently being transmitted into us is the transcending Christ Himself as the fourfold power of the Triune God (1 Cor. 1:24); the normal, genuine, proper, and real church comes out of this great fourfold power—resurrecting power, ascending power, subjecting power, and heading-up power—for the building up of the church as His Body (Eph. 1:19-23):
1 “向着召会”(22)指明神的能力,包括三一神所经过的一切,已经一次永远地放在我们里面,并且还要继续不断地传输到我们里面,使我们丰富的享受基督,并过正当的召会生活,有基督身体的实际。
1 To the church (v. 22) indicates that the divine power, which includes all that the Triune God has passed through, has been installed into us once for all and is being transmitted into us continually, causing us to enjoy Christ richly and to have the proper church life with the reality of the Body of Christ.
2 超越之基督的输供将三一神在基督里所成就、所达到并所得着的,都传输到那作基督身体的召会里;这不仅是为着产生召会,更是为着生长、建立并建造召会。
2 The transmitting of the transcending Christ is to transfuse into the church, the Body of Christ, what the Triune God has accomplished, attained, and obtained in Christ; this is not only for producing the church but also for growing, establishing, and building up the church.
四 我们必须求父用那使基督从死人中复活,叫祂在诸天界里坐在神的右边,又将万有服在祂的脚下,并使祂向着召会作万有之头的大能,使我们得以加强到里面的人里,使基督借着信,安家在我们心里—三16~17,一19~23。
D We must ask the Father to strengthen us into the inner man so that Christ may make His home in our hearts through faith with the power that raised Christ from the dead, that seated Christ at the right hand of God in the heavenlies, that subjected all things under His feet, and that gave Him to be Head over all things to the church—3:16-17; 1:19-23.
五 神能照着运行在我们里面的四重大能,极其充盈地成就关于召会作基督身体的一切,超过我们所求所想的,使神在召会中得着荣耀—三20~21。
E God is able to do superabundantly above all that we ask or think concerning the church as the Body of Christ, according to this fourfold power that operates in us, so that God is glorified in the church—3:20-21.

  弗一10  为着时期满足时的经纶,要将万有,无论是在诸天之上的,或是在地上的,都在基督里归一于一个元首之下。

  22~23  将万有服在祂的脚下,并使祂向着召会作万有的头;召会是祂的身体,是那在万有中充满万有者的丰满。

  借着神在所有世代中一切的安排,万有要在新天新地中,在基督里归一于一个元首之下。这就是神永远的行政和经纶。…神使基督向着召会作万有的头。(以弗所一章二十二节)这小小的辞“向着”,含示传输的意思。这指明基督元首的身份传输给召会。(以弗所书生命读经,八七至八八页。)
  Eph. 1:10 Unto the economy of the fullness of the times, to head up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth, in Him.

  22-23 And He subjected all things under His feet and gave Him to be Head over all things to the church, which is His Body, the fullness of the One who fills all in all.

  Through all the dispensations of God in all the ages, all things will be headed up in Christ in the new heaven and new earth. This will be God’s eternal administration and economy. God gave Christ to be the Head over all things to the church. The little word to [in Ephesians 1:22] implies transmission. It indicates that Christ’s headship is being transmitted to the church. (Life-study of Ephesians, pp. 73-74)
信息选读  
  召会能有分于基督元首的身份,因为召会是基督的身体。这位王不单是头,更是头带着身体。基督不仅是头,也是身体。(林前十二12。)因为召会是身体,又因为基督是头也是身体,我们可以说,在某种意义上,我们—身体—也就是基督。虽然我们不是头,我们却能有分于基督元首的身份。我们是头的身体,这头是万有的头。我们不仅是掌管昆虫、猫和狗的头,我们也是总统、君王、将军、和工商巨子的头;我们在这一切之上。(以弗所书生命读经,八八至八九页。)

  三一神三重的分赐,包括在超越之基督的输供里,也终极完成于超越之基督那包罗一切的输供里。…这样包罗一切的输供,不仅使我们与成为肉体并钉十字架的基督联结,也使我们与复活并超越的基督联结。在与这位超越之基督的联结里,我们超过了一切消极的事物,并且远超过它们。成为肉体并钉十字架的基督,将神带给了人,并为我们成就了永远的救赎。但阴间的权势、并空中执政的、掌权的、有能的、主治的,仍然在拦阻神的选民有分于基督在祂的新约里为他们所作成的。借着基督的复活和升天,基督已经征服了阴间的权势,并超过、超越在空中一切黑暗的权势。在与这样一位基督的联结里,我们一直有分于祂在祂的复活并升天里所成功的一切。(李文集一九九三年第二册,六九五至六九六页。)

  我们需要神借着祂的灵,用大能使我们得以加强到里面的人里。(弗三16。)“到…里”这辞指明传输。你正在接受这四重能力神圣的传输:复活的能力、超越的能力、归服的能力、以及(元首)支配的能力。在以弗所一章,这能力向着我们;但在三章,这大能使我们得加强到我们的灵里,就是到我们里面的人里。这使我们得加强的大能,不仅是在我们里面,也是在诸天之上,正传输到我们里面。

  这加强的结果是“使基督…安家在你们心里”。(17。)基督不仅在我们的灵里,并且作为一个人位,祂也必须居住在我们内里整个的所是里,就是在我们的心里。…基督就要接管我们整个里面的所是。当我们得以加强到我们里面的人里,就是到我们的灵里,基督这内住的灵就很容易浸透我们内里所是的各部分。基督这内住的灵很容易接管我们的心思、情感和意志。然后基督就能在我们内里的所是里安顿,在我们的心里安家。(李文集一九七○年第二册,五五四至五五六页。)

  The church can share the headship of Christ because the church is the Body of Christ. The King is not just the Head, but the Head with the Body. Christ is not only the Head but also the Body (1 Cor. 12:12). Because the church is the Body and because Christ is both the Head and the Body, we may say that, in a sense, we, the Body, are also Christ. Although we are not the Head, we can share Christ’s headship. We are the Body of the Head, and the Head is the head over all things. We are not only head over insects, cats, and dogs but also over presidents, kings, generals, and industrial leaders. We are over them all. (Life-study of Ephesians, p. 74)

  The Triune God’s threefold dispensing is included in the transmission of the transcending Christ and is completed and consummated in the all-inclusive transmission of the transcending Christ. Such an all-inclusive transmission brings us into union not only with the incarnated and crucified Christ but also with the resurrected and transcending Christ. In union with this transcending Christ, we have surpassed all the negative things and transcended them all. The incarnated and crucified Christ has brought God to man and has accomplished an eternal redemption for us. But the power of Hades and the rule, authority, power, and lordship in the air are still the frustration to the God-chosen people in their participation in what Christ has done for them in His new covenant. Through His resurrection and ascension, Christ has conquered the power of Hades and surpassed and transcended all the power of darkness in the air. In union with such a Christ, we are participating all the time in all His success in His resurrection and ascension. (CWWL, 1993, vol. 2, “The Issue of the Dispensing of the Processed Trinity and the Transmitting of the Transcending Christ,” p. 526)

  We need to be strengthened with power through His Spirit into the inner man [Eph. 3:16]. This word into indicates transmission. You are receiving the divine transmission of this fourfold power, the resurrection power, transcending power, subduing power, and overruling [heading-up] power. In Ephesians 1 this power was toward us, but in chapter 3 the strengthening is with this power into our spirit, into our inner man. This power for the strengthening is not only within us but also in the heavens being transmitted into us.

  The issue of this strengthening is “that Christ may make His home in your hearts” (v. 17). Not only is Christ in our spirit, but also, as a person, He must inhabit our whole inward being, our heart….Christ will take over our entire inward being. When we are strengthened into our inner man, into our spirit, it will be easy for Christ as the indwelling Spirit to saturate every inward part of our being. It will be easy for Christ as the indwelling Spirit to take over our mind, our emotion, and our will. Then Christ can settle down in our being, making His home in our hearts. (CWWL, 1970, vol. 2, “The Two Greatest Prayers of the Apostle Paul,” p. 414)
