二 
逾越节的羊羔完完全全是为着救赎的,对全体百姓都管用,但遮罪银只应用到那些有资格编组成为神军队的人身上:
The Passover lamb was purely and absolutely for redemption, and it was available for all the people, but the propitiation silver is applied only to those who are qualified to be formed into God's army:
1 
因着我们天然的人不够资格被征召进入神的军队,所以我们必须出代价经历基督作我们的救赎,这是遮罪银所表征的─林前一30。
Because our natural man is not qualified to be drafted into God's army, we must pay the price to experience Christ as our redemption, signified by the propitiation silver—1 Cor. 1:30.
2 
救赎的意思乃是我们被带回归向神,我们天然的人被神所了结,以及我们重新被基督所构成。
Redemption means that we are brought back to God, that our natural man is terminated by God, and that we are reconstituted with Christ.
三

In order to be in the army to fight for God's move, we need to be strong in spirit and grow until we come to the spiritual age of twenty—Eph. 4:15.
2 
变化乃是在我们天然的生命上改变,而成熟乃是被变化我们的神圣生命所充满─来六1:
To be transformed is to be changed in our natural life, whereas to be matured is to be filled with the divine life that changes us—Heb. 6:1:
