The Measure of God’s Rule and Ministry on Spiritual Warfare
« 周六 晨兴 »
纲目
七 属灵争战的目的,就是把神的国带进来—启十二10:
G The purpose of spiritual warfare is to bring in the kingdom of God—Rev. 12:10:
1 属灵争战乃是神的国与撒但的国之间的争战—太十二26、28~29。
1 Spiritual warfare is the warfare between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of Satan—Matt. 12:26, 28-29.
2 神的国就是神圣意志的运用,以神的能力去推翻撒但的能力—六10,十二28。
2 The kingdom of God is the exercise of the divine will and the overthrowing of the power of Satan by the power of God—6:10; 12:28.
3 召会的工作就是把神的国带进来;召会必须借着祷告,在地上释放神国的能力—十六18~19,六9~10、13,十八19,启十一15。
3 The work of the church is to bring in the kingdom of God, and through prayer the church must release the power of the kingdom of God upon the earth—16:18-19; 6:9-10, 13; 18:19; Rev. 11:15.
叁 在婚娶之日,基督要迎娶那些多年与神的仇敌争战的人;也就是说,基督要迎娶那些已经胜过那恶者的得胜者—十九7~9、11~16:
Ⅲ On the day of His wedding, Christ will marry those who have been fighting the battle against God’s enemy for years; that is, Christ will marry the overcomers, who have already overcome the evil one—19:7-9, 11-16:
一 当基督来与敌基督和他的军兵争战时,祂乃是作为人子而来,祂这位人子需要一个配偶,好与祂相配,使祂得以完全;这个配偶就是祂的新妇—十四14,十九7~9。
A When Christ comes to fight against Antichrist and his army, He will come as the Son of Man, and as the Son of Man, He will need a counterpart to match Him and complete Him; this counterpart will be His bride—14:14; 19:7-9.
二 构成基督新妇的得胜者,要与神的一切仇敌争战,并击败他们—二7、11、17、26,三5、12、21:
B The overcomers who constitute the bride of Christ fight the battle against all the enemies of God and defeat them—2:7, 11, 17, 26; 3:5, 12, 21:
1 得胜者所打的仗是生命抵挡死亡的仗,并在生命中作王,胜过死亡—太十六18,约五24,提前六19,提后一10,约壹三14,罗五17、21。
1 The overcomers engage in the warfare of life against death and reign in life over death—Matt. 16:18; John 5:24; 1 Tim. 6:19; 2 Tim. 1:10; 1 John 3:14; Rom. 5:17, 21.
2 得胜者征服撒但毁坏的混乱,而在建造的神圣经纶里得胜;他们不是从当前的混乱里被拯救出来,乃是借着经过过程并终极完成之三一神作全足的恩典,得以征服混乱—提后一9、15,二1、17~18,四22。
2 The overcomers conquer the destructive chaos and triumph in the constructive divine economy; instead of being delivered out of the present chaos, they conquer the chaos by the processed and consummated Triune God as the all-sufficient grace—2 Tim. 1:9, 15; 2:1, 17-18; 4:22.
 


晨兴喂养  
  启十二10 ……我们神的救恩、能力、国度并祂基督的权柄,现在都来到了,因为那在我们神面前昼夜控告我们弟兄们的控告者,已经被摔下去了。

  罗五17  ……那些受洋溢之恩,并洋溢之义恩赐的,就更要借着耶稣基督一人,在生命中作王了。

  今天神的国虽然还没有完全降到地上,神虽然还没有得着一个完全掌权的范围,祂的荣耀虽然还不能完全得着彰显,但是感谢神,在一个小的地方,在一个小的范围里面,还能有一部分神掌权的光景,还能让神彰显祂一部分的荣耀,这就是召会。召会在今天就是神掌权的一个模型。……祂要借着召会捆绑撒但,消除他的权势,好使祂的名为全地所尊崇,祂的国度在全地得建立,祂的旨意在全地能通行。这就是召会的使命,这也就是召会属灵争战的目的(李文集一九五三年第三册,七○三页)。
  Rev. 12:10 …Now has come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ, for the accuser of our brothers has been cast down, who accuses them before our God day and night.

  Rom. 5:17 …Those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.

  Although the kingdom of God has not yet completely come upon this earth, although God has not yet gained a sphere wherein He can exercise His authority in a full way, and although His glory has not yet been made fully manifest, nevertheless there is a small place, a small sphere, thank the Lord, where there still exists the condition of God’s partial reign, which thereby manifests a portion of God’s glory. This is the church. Today the church is a model of God’s reign…It is through the church that God will bind Satan and destroy his power. Thus, His name will be honored in the whole earth, His kingdom set up, and His will done. This is the commission of the church. This also is the purpose of the church’s spiritual warfare. (CWWL, 1953, vol. 3, “The Experience of Life,” p. 519)
信息选读  
  我们必须借着经过过程并终极完成之三一神作全足的恩典,征服撒但的混乱。……在林前十五章十节保罗说,神的恩与他同在;在加拉太六章十八节他说,主耶稣基督的恩与我们的灵同在;在提后四章二十二节他说,主与我们的灵同在。主这全足的恩典与我们的灵同在。我们借着祂作我们全足的恩典,就能征服一切撒但的混乱,并完成独一的神圣经纶。

  我们按照真理就能征服一切撒但的混乱,并完成神圣的经纶;召会,就是神在肉体的显现,乃是这真理的柱石和根基(提前三15~16)。背叛的人不能摇动在主恢复里的召会,因为召会是真理的柱石和根基。柱石支持建筑物,而根基托住柱石。召会是支持真理的柱石,也是托住真理的根基。因为召会是真理的柱石和根基,我们就必须是教导真理的人。我们教导真理,就会点亮在黑暗中的人,给人注射抵抗毒素,吞灭死亡,并将走岔的人带回到正路上。

  启示录二、三章启示,我们必须在某些情形里,来征服一切撒但的混乱,并完成独一的神圣经纶。

  我们必须是以起初的爱爱主的人(二4)。起初的爱可以比作新婚的爱。一对夫妇结婚一段时间之后,起初的爱很容易就消逝了。……我们必须恢复我们向我们的丈夫基督那新婚的爱。

  我们也必须在召会这今日的乐园里,享受基督作生命树,使我们能成为发光的灯台(7、5)。主……告诉得胜者,祂要给他们吃整个的生命树,就是基督自己。我们该吃一棵树,宇宙的树,独一的树,就是生命树,也就是基督作神圣生命的具体化身。

  我们必须以新婚的爱爱主,我们也必须享受祂作整个的生命树。这树是长在神的乐园里。神的乐园(7)是在千年国里的新耶路撒冷。在千年国里的新耶路撒冷,乃是神的乐园。这乐园要比伊甸园更令人喜悦。今天召会生活乃是这要来之乐园的先驱,也就是在要来之国度里新耶路撒冷的小影(李文集一九九一至一九九二年第三册,三一八至三二○页)。

  参读:祷告,第十八章。
  We have to conquer the satanic chaos by the processed and consummated Triune God as the all-sufficient grace…In 1 Corinthians 15:10 Paul says that the grace of the Lord was with him; in Galatians 6:18 he says that the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ is with our spirit; and in 2 Timothy 4:22 he says that the Lord is with our spirit. The Lord as the all-sufficient grace is with our spirit, and we can conquer all the satanic chaos and carry out the unique divine economy by Him as our all-sufficient grace.

  We can conquer all the satanic chaos and carry out the divine economy according to the truth, of which the church, the manifestation of God in the flesh, is the pillar and base (1 Tim. 3:15-16). The rebellious ones cannot shake the church in the Lord’s recovery, because the church is the pillar and base of the truth. The pillar supports the building, and the base holds the pillar. The church is the pillar supporting the truth, and it is the base holding the truth. Because the church is the pillar and base of the truth, we need to be those who teach the truth. Our teaching of the truth will enlighten the darkened people, inoculate against the poison, swallow up the death, and bring the distracted back to the proper track.

  Revelation 2 and 3 reveal that we need to conquer all the satanic chaos and carry out the unique divine economy in certain conditions.

  We need to be those who love the Lord with the first love (2:4). The first love may be compared to the love of newlyweds. After a couple has been married for a period of time, it is easy for the first love to fade away…We must recover the wedding, bridal love toward our Husband, Christ.

  We also need to enjoy eating Christ as the tree of life in the church as today’s Paradise so that we can be a shining lampstand (vv. 7, 5). The Lord… tells the overcomers that He will give them to eat of the entire tree of life, which is Christ Himself. We should eat one tree, the universal tree, the unique tree, that is, the tree of life, which is Christ as the embodiment of the divine life.

  We have to love the Lord with a bridal love, and we have to enjoy Him as the entire tree of life. This tree is growing in the Paradise of God. The Paradise of God (v. 7) is the New Jerusalem in the millennial kingdom. The New Jerusalem in the millennial kingdom will be a paradise to God. This paradise will be much more pleasant than the garden of Eden. Today the church life is the precursor of this coming paradise, the miniature of the New Jerusalem in the coming kingdom. (CWWL, 1991-1992, vol. 3, “The Satanic Chaos in the Old Creation and the Divine Economy for the New Creation,” pp. 257-258)
