那灵在新约执事身上和他们里面的工作
Message Three The Work of the Spirit on and in the New Covenant Ministers
 

  
读经:林后一21~22,四16,五5,弗一13~14,四30,约壹二20,27,出三十23~25,腓一19,罗八28~29。
Scripture Reading: 2 Cor. 1:21-22; 4:16; 5:5; Eph. 1:13-14; 4:30; 1 John 2:20, 27; Exo. 30:23-25; Phil. 1:19; Rom. 8:28-29
壹 
那灵在新约执事身上的工作,乃是借着他们所遭遇的环境,拆毁他们旧人中天然的每一面:
The work of the Spirit on the new covenant ministers is to tear down every natural aspect of their old being through their environment:
一 
职事是由启示加上苦难所产生的─林后一8,十二7。
The ministry is produced by revelation plus suffering—2 Cor. 1:8; 12:7.
二 
一切与我们有关的人和境遇,都是由神的灵所安排的,好配合祂在我们里面的工作,使我们模成神长子的形象─罗八28~29,林后四10~11,16。
All persons and situations related to us are arranged by the Spirit of God to match His work within us that we may be conformed to the image of the firstborn Son of God—Rom. 8:28-29; 2 Cor. 4:10-11, 16.
贰 
那灵在新约执事里面的工作,乃是借着膏油涂抹、盖印并作质,用基督的丰富将他们构成,使他们成为新人:
The work of the Spirit within the new covenant ministers is to constitute them with the riches of Christ to make them a new being by the anointing, sealing, and pledging:
一 
膏油涂抹就是内住复合之灵的运行并工作,将神的元素分赐到我们里面─出三十23~25,腓一19:
The anointing is the moving and working of the indwelling compound Spirit to impart God's elements into us—Exo. 30:23-25; Phil. 1:19:
1 
受膏者基督成了施膏者,进到我们里面,成为我们里面的膏油涂抹─林前十五45下,林后一21,约壹二20,27。
The anointed One, Christos, became the anointing One who entered into us to become the anointing, chrisma, in us—1 Cor. 15:45b; 2 Cor. 1:21; 1 John 2:20, 27.
2 
膏油涂抹临到我们,是要完成神救恩的中心目的,将复合的神涂抹到我们里面,使我们与祂联结、调和并合并:
The reaching of the anointing accomplishes the central purpose of God's salvation to anoint the compounded God into us that we may be united, mingled, and incorporated with Him:
a 
我们越应用受膏者基督的血,并让这血不断地洗净我们,我们就越经历膏油涂抹,感觉到神在我们里面活的同在和运行─利十四14~18,25~29,约壹一7,二20。
The more we apply the blood of Christ, the anointed One, and allow it to wash us continually, the more we will experience the anointing and sense the inward living presence and moving of God—Lev. 14:14-18, 25-29; 1 John 1:7; 2:20.
b 
当我们呼求主的名,祂就涂抹到我们里面,因为基督的名作祂的人位,乃是涂抹的膏油─歌一3,林前十二3,罗十12~13。
When we call on the Lord's name, He is anointed into our being because Christ's name as His person is the anointing ointment—S. S. 1:3; 1 Cor. 12:3; Rom. 10:12-13.
c 
当我们借着各样的祷告接受主的话,我们就接受那灵作涂抹的膏油,因为复合的那灵乃是具体化于神的话─约六63,弗六17~18。
When we receive the Lord's word by means of all prayer, we receive the Spirit as the anointing ointment because the compound Spirit is embodied in the word of God—John 6:63; Eph. 6:17-18.
d 
我们要享受全备复合之灵的涂抹,就必须在基督的身体里,并在对神的事奉里,正如复合的膏被用来涂抹帐幕和事奉的祭司团所预表的─出三十26~30,诗一三三。
To enjoy the anointing of the bountiful compound Spirit, we need to be in the Body and in God's service, as typified by the compound ointment being used to anoint the tabernacle and the serving priesthood—Exo. 30:26-30; Psa. 133.
3 
膏油涂抹的教导,乃是那灵在我们里面运行所产生的感觉,使我们能知道神的心思,并活在祂里面,又教导我们关于三一神和祂行动的事─徒十六6~7:
The teaching of the anointing is the feeling generated by the moving of the Spirit within us, enabling us to know God's mind and to live in Him, teaching us the things concerning the Triune God and His activities—Acts 16:6-7:
a 
我们若顺从膏油涂抹的教导,并活在其中,结果就会更爱主,并与祂有更深的交通。
If we obey the teaching of the anointing and live in it, the result will be more love for the Lord and a deeper fellowship with Him.
b 
跟从主作那灵,照着灵而行,就是顺从膏油涂抹的教导─林后二12~13。
To follow the Lord as the Spirit, to walk according to the spirit, is to obey the teaching of the anointing—2 Cor. 2:12-13.
二 
盖印乃是将神圣的元素形成为一种印象,以彰显神的形象─林后一22,弗一13:
The sealing forms the divine elements into an impression to express God's image—2 Cor. 1:22; Eph. 1:13:
1 
印涂的灵不断的浸透信徒,直到他们的身体得赎─弗四30。
The sealing Spirit saturates the believers continuously unto the redemption of their body—Eph. 4:30.
2 
这印涂将信徒变化为神的珍宝,作神的基业─弗一11。
This sealing transforms the believers into a treasure to God as His inheritance—Eph. 1:11.
3 
我们越被印涂,就越有神的形象,而被构成为神的杰作─林后三18下,弗二10。
The more we are sealed, the more we bear the image of God to be constituted into the masterpiece of God—2 Cor. 3:18b; Eph. 2:10.
三 
作质乃是给我们一种预尝,作为对神之全享的样品和担保─林后一22,五5:
The pledging gives us a foretaste as a sample and guarantee of the full taste of God—2 Cor. 1:22; 5:5:
1 
那灵的作质,保证神是我们的产业─弗一14。
The Spirit's pledging guarantees that God is our inheritance—Eph. 1:14.
2 
基督这作质的灵是在我们里面给我们品尝,使我们借着操练我们的灵,得以享受祂作我们神圣的产业,就是我们所得的分─诗三四8,彼前二3,西一12。
Christ as the pledging Spirit is in us for our taste, for our enjoyment of Him as our divine inheritance, our allotted portion, through the exercise of our spirit—Psa. 34:8; 1 Pet. 2:3; Col. 1:12.
