太二八19　所以你们要去，使万民作我的门徒，将他们浸入父、子、圣灵的名里。

　　加三27　　你们凡浸入基督的，都已经穿上了基督。

　　马太二十八章十九节……是主耶稣进入复活以后的嘱咐；复活乃是三一神之过程的完成。三一神经过了一段过程，开始于成为肉体，包括人性生活和钉十字架，完成于复活。在复活里，作三一神具体化身的基督成了赐生命的灵。如今这灵乃是三一神的终极完成，使信徒得以浸入神圣的三一里。

　　神圣三一最清楚的启示是在马太二十八章十九节。一面，本节说到父、子、圣灵；另一面，本节只有一个名，就是父、子、圣灵的名。这是三一神之过程的完成，这过程结束于复活。在这过程完成以后，复活的基督就来到门徒那里，嘱咐他们带着祂的权柄前去，使万民作门徒，并且将他们浸入三一神的名—人位—里，使他们能与神圣的三一有生机的联结，并且为着召会生活被带进对三一的享受中（新约总论第四册，二○九页）。

　　Matt. 28:19 Go therefore and disciple all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

　　Gal. 3:27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

　　This charge [in Matthew 28:19] was given by the Lord Jesus after He had entered into resurrection, which was the consummation of the process of the Triune God. The Triune God has passed through a process that began with incarnation, included human living and crucifixion, and consummated with resurrection. In resurrection Christ, the embodiment of the Triune God, became the life-giving Spirit. Now this Spirit is the consummation of the Triune God for the believers to be baptized into the Divine Trinity.

　　The clearest revelation of the Divine Trinity is in Matthew 28:19. On the one hand, this verse speaks of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; on the other hand, in this verse there is only one name, the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. This is the completion of the process of the Triune God, a process that ends in resurrection. After the completion of this process, the resurrected Christ came to the disciples and charged them to go forth with His authority to disciple the nations and baptize them into the name, the person, of the Triune God that they may have an organic union with the Divine Trinity and be brought into the enjoyment of the Trinity for the church life.

　　浸有两面：看得见的一面是借着水，看不见的一面是借着圣灵（徒二38、41，十44~48）。前者是后者的彰显和见证，后者是前者的实际。没有看不见的灵浸，那看得见的水浸就是徒然的；没有看得见的水浸，那看不见的灵浸就是抽象和无实行的。因此，两面都不可缺。

　　 马太二十八章十九节的“入”字指明联合……。将信徒浸入三一神的名里，就是将他们带进与三一神属灵、奥秘的联结里。

　　照着马太二十八章十九节，神圣三一有一个名，这名乃是那神圣者的总称，等于祂的人位。将信徒浸入三一神的名里，就是将他浸入三一神一切的所是里。浸入三一神的人位里，就是浸入包罗万有、完成的灵里；这灵是经过过程之三一神的终极完成。这就是浸入父的丰富，浸入子的丰富，并浸入灵的丰富。……所以，凡父所有的、子所有的、灵所领受的，都成了我们的。

　　在马太二十八章十九节，受浸是浸入三一神里面。但在使徒行传，受浸是浸入主耶稣里面（八16，十九5）。这清楚地指明，主耶稣是三一神的具体化身，是父、子、灵的总和。此外，在书信里保罗说，受浸是在那灵里受浸（林前十二13）。所以，新约启示我们是浸入三一神里面，浸入主耶稣里面，并且是在那灵里受浸。这指明主耶稣是三一神的总和，那灵是主耶稣的实化。我们已经在那灵里受浸，这就是浸入主耶稣里面，就是浸入父、子、灵—三一神—里面。结果，我们就与三一神成为一，凡祂所是并所有的，在与祂生机的联结里都是我们的。这种借着那灵作三一神的完成，对神圣三一的享受，乃是为着召会生活（新约总论第四册，二一○至二一一页）。

　　Baptism has two aspects: the visible aspect by water and the invisible aspect by the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:38, 41; 10:44-48). The visible aspect is the expression, the testimony, of the invisible aspect, whereas the invisible aspect is the reality of the visible aspect. Without the invisible aspect by the Spirit, the visible aspect by water is vain; and without the visible aspect by water, the invisible aspect by the Spirit is abstract and impractical. Both are needed.

　　The word into in Matthew 28:19 indicates union…To baptize the believers into the name of the Triune God is to bring them into a spiritual and mystical union with Him.

　　According to Matthew 28:19, there is one name for the Trinity. The name is the sum total of the Divine Being, equivalent to His person. To baptize a believer into the name of the Trinity is to immerse him into all that the Triune God is. To be baptized into the person of the Triune God is to be baptized in the all-inclusive, consummated Spirit who is the ultimate consummation of the processed Triune God. This is to be baptized into the riches of the Father, into the riches of the Son, and into the riches of the Spirit…Therefore, whatever the Father has, whatever the Son has, and whatever the Spirit receives become ours.

　　In Matthew 28:19 to be baptized is to be baptized into the Triune God. But in Acts to be baptized is to be baptized into the Lord Jesus (8:16; 19:5). This indicates clearly that the Lord Jesus is the embodiment of the Triune God, the aggregate of the Father, the Son, and the Spirit. Furthermore, in the Epistles Paul says that to be baptized is to be baptized in the Spirit (1 Cor. 12:13). Therefore, the New Testament reveals that we are baptized into the Triune God, into the Lord Jesus, and in the Spirit. This indicates that the Lord Jesus is the totality of the Triune God and that the Spirit is the realization of the Lord Jesus. We have been baptized in the Spirit, and this is to be baptized into the Lord Jesus, which is to be baptized into the Father, the Son, and the Spirit— the Triune God. As a result, we are one with the Triune God, and whatever He is and has is ours in the organic union with Him. This enjoyment of the Divine Trinity through the Spirit as the consummation of the Triune God is for the church life. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, pp. 1031-1032)
