« 周四 晨兴 »
纲目
㈡ 原型是神的长子,复制品是神的众子,就是原型的肢体,成为祂的身体,终极完成于新耶路撒冷—彼前一3。
⑵ The prototype is the firstborn Son of God, and the reproduction is the many sons of God, the members of the prototype to be His Body, which consummates in the New Jerusalem—1 Pet. 1:3.
肆 “大卫的后裔成了神的儿子”说出我们借着复活,被标出为神众子的过程—来二10~11:
Ⅳ The seed of David becoming the Son of God speaks of the process of our being designated the many sons of God by resurrection—Heb. 2:10-11:
一 基督已经被标出为神的儿子,但我们仍在被标出的过程中,就是在得以子化,被作成神的过程中—罗八28~29。
A Christ has already been designated the Son of God, but we are still in the process of designation, the process of being sonized, deified—Rom. 8:28-29.
二 神儿子的生命已经栽种到我们的灵里—10节:1 我们现今就像种在土里的种子,必须经过死而复活的过程—约十二24~25。
B The life of the Son of God has been implanted into our spirit—v. 10:
2 这使外面的人被销毁,却使内里的生命得以长大、发展,至终开花;这就是复活—林前十五31、36,林后四10~12、16。
1 Now we, like the seed that is sown into the earth, must pass through the process of death and resurrection—John 12:24-25.
3 我们越在生命里长大,使我们在生命里被变化,就越被标出为神的儿子:
2 This causes the outer man to be consumed, but it enables the inner life to grow, to develop, and ultimately, to blossom; this is resurrection—1 Cor. 15:31, 36; 2 Cor. 4:10-12, 16.
a 我们要长大,就需要有转向主的心,并有纯一向着祂的心—三16、18,太五8,提后二22。
3 The more we grow in life for our transformation in life, the more we are designated the sons of God:
b 我们要长大,就需要得着话中纯净之奶和干粮的喂养—彼前二2,来五12~14。
a In order to grow, we need a heart turned to the Lord and a heart that is pure toward Him—3:16, 18; Matt. 5:8; 2 Tim. 2:22.
c 我们要长大,就需要有恩赐之肢体的浇灌—林前三6下,约七37~39,箴十一25。
b In order to grow, we need to feed on the guileless milk and the solid food of the word—1 Pet. 2:2; Heb. 5:12-14.
d 借着我们环境中一切的事故,并我们的失败,我们丑陋的己就被拆毁,使主有更多的机会在我们里面作工—罗八28~29。
c In order to grow, we need the watering of the gifted members—1 Cor. 3:6b; John 7:37-39; Prov. 11:25.

晨兴喂养  
  彼前一3 我们主耶稣基督的神与父是当受颂赞的,祂曾照自己的大怜悯,借耶稣基督从死人中复活,重生了我们,使我们有活的盼望。

  罗八29  因为神所预知的人,祂也预定他们模成神儿子的形像,使祂儿子在许多弟兄中作长子。

  在〔基督〕的复活里,祂所有的信徒都与祂一同出生,重生,作祂成千上万的“同胎弟兄”,使所有这些同胎弟兄都与祂一样(彼前一3)。……原型是神的长子,复制品是神的众子。……当耶稣这位人子借着死与复活生为神的长子时,成千上万神所拣选的人也在同一个出生里出生了。

  这许许多多的神人乃是大量的复制品,与耶稣基督这奇妙的一位是完全一样的。这原型的大量复制品,成了原型的肢体,作祂的身体,就是基督的身体,而这基督的身体终极完成于新耶路撒冷,就是那在基督里经过过程并终极完成且成为赐生命之灵的三一神团体的彰显(李文集一九九四至一九九七年第一册,二八七至二八八页)。
信息选读  
  身为神的独生子,祂在复活里成了赐生命的灵(林前十五45下)。……这赐生命的灵乃是给与新生起头的能力,使神新造的每一部分都有新生的起头。神的新造就是基督的身体,而基督的身体要终极完成于新耶路撒冷,就是神自己与人调和的独一彰显,直到永远。这给我们看见,基督的神性在祂奇妙身位里那包罗万有并延展无限的讲究。赐生命的灵乃是三一神的终极完成,也是使作为基督身体的三部分人得着终极完成的那一位;这身体要终极完成于新耶路撒冷(李文集一九九四至一九九七年第一册,二八八页)。

  神并不要我们失去我们的人性。相反的,我们要带着我们的人性直到永远;但我们在永世里的人性不是天然的,乃是复活、得荣、拔高的人性。……今天我们这物质的身体就像一粒种子;但是有一天,这粒“种子”要复活并得荣。

  基督借着成为肉体穿上了人性,因此祂有两种性情—神性和人性。基督借着复活并作为那灵进到我们里面,就将神性带到我们里面。因此,我们也有两种性情—人性与神性。我们因着从那灵而生,就有分于神的性情(彼后一4)。我们能说,“主,你如何有两种性情,我们也照样有两种性情。你有神性也有人性,我们有人性也有神性。阿利路亚,我们和你一样!……你是身体的头,我们是你身体上的肢体。主,你是神的儿子,我们也是神的儿子。”当我们这样向主说的时候,主会珍赏这话。当我们宣告,神不再只有一个儿子(独生子),乃是有许多的儿子,其中基督是长子,我们是神的众子这个事实的时候,主会享受这话。基督已经被标出为神的儿子,但我们还在被标出的过程中。有一天,这个过程要完成,我们就要和神的长子基督毕像毕肖,直到永远。罗马一章三至四节包含许多关键的辞句。三节有“按肉体”,四节有“按圣别的灵”。保罗在八章四节说到“照着灵”而不“照着肉体”生活行动。这是保罗在这卷书后面,再次使用一章三至四节中这些关键辞的一个例子(罗马书生命读经,六五○至六五一页)。

  参读:罗马书的结晶,第三篇。
  1 Pet. 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has regenerated us unto a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

  Rom. 8:29 Because those whom He foreknew, He also predestinated to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the Firstborn among many brothers.

  In [Christ’s] resurrection all His believers were born, regenerated, with Him as His millions of “twins” to make all these twins the same as He is (1 Pet. 1:3)…The prototype is the firstborn Son of God, and the reproduction is the many sons of God…When Jesus as the Son of Man through death and resurrection was born to be the firstborn Son of God, the millions of God’s chosen people were born in the same birth…

  These millions of God-men are the mass reproduction who are exactly the same as the wonderful person Jesus Christ. This mass reproduction of the prototype becomes the members of the prototype to be His Body, the Body of Christ, and this Body of Christ consummates in the New Jerusalem, which is the corporate expression of the Triune God, processed and consummated in Christ and becoming the life-giving Spirit. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 1, “Crystallization-study of the Epistle to the Romans,” pp. 236-237)
