Scripture Reading: Gen. 8:4—9:17; 1 Pet. 3:20-21; Rom. 6:3-5
壹 
挪亚的方舟经过死水,停在亚拉腊山上;这预表在复活里经过死并从死里复活的基督─创八4,彼前三20~21:
The ark of Noah passed through the water of death and came to rest on the mountains of Ararat; this is a type of Christ in resurrection passing through death and resurrecting out of death—Gen. 8:4; 1 Pet. 3:20-21:
一 
方舟既是基督的预表,方舟经过水并从水里出来就表征在复活里的基督。
Since the ark is a type of Christ, the fact that the ark passed through the water and came out of the water signifies Christ in resurrection.
二 
基督,并且惟有基督,能进入死,又在复活里从死里出来,因为祂是复活,并且属于复活─约十一25,徒二24,启一18。
Christ, and Christ alone, could enter into death and come forth out of death in resurrection because He is resurrection and is of resurrection—John 11:25; Acts 2:24; Rev. 1:18.
三 
当方舟经过洪水,并且当方舟停在亚拉腊山顶上,有八个人在方舟里─创七7:
Eight persons were in the ark when it passed through the flood and when it came to rest on the mountain—Gen. 7:7:
1 
他们因着在方舟里,就经历了方舟所经历的一切。
Whatever the ark experienced, they also experienced by being in the ark.
2 
这描绘信徒如何借着在基督里,而与基督一同钉十字架并复活─林前一30,弗一4,罗六6,林后五14,加二20上,弗二6,西二12,三1。
This illustrates how the believers, by being in Christ, were crucified and resurrected with Christ—1 Cor. 1:30; Eph. 1:4; Rom. 6:6; 2 Cor. 5:14; Gal. 2:20a; Eph. 2:6; Col. 2:12; 3:1.
3 
因着我们在基督里,祂的经历就成了我们的经历─林前一30。
Because we are in Christ, His experience has become ours—1 Cor. 1:30.

基督在祂的复活里成了赐生命的灵,进到我们里面,将祂复活的生命分赐给我们─十五45下,约二十22,罗八11。
In His resurrection Christ became the life-giving Spirit to come into us and to impart His resurrection life to us—15:45b; John 20:22; Rom. 8:11.
贰 
挪亚和他的家人在洪水之后的生活,表征召会在基督的复活里的生活;这是召会生活的种子─创八4~九17:
The living of Noah and his family after the flood signifies the living of the church in Christ's resurrection; this is a seed of the church life—Gen. 8:4—9:17:
一 
八个人从方舟出来─八18:
Eight people emerged from the ark—8:18:
1 
基督在七日的第一日,或安息日的次日─旧的七日的第一日─复活;因此八这数字表征复活─约二十1,参创十七12。
Christ was resurrected on the first day of the week, or the day after the Sabbath—the eighth day of the old week; thus, the number eight signifies resurrection—John 20:1; cf. Gen. 17:12.
2 
因着在基督里的所有信徒,召会的组成分子,包括在基督的复活里,所以他们是复活的人─弗二6,彼前一3。
Since all the believers in Christ, the components of the church, were included in Christ's resurrection, they are the resurrected people—Eph. 2:6; 1 Pet. 1:3.
二 
祭坛是基督十字架的预表,供物是基督各方面的预表─创八20~21:
The altar is a type of the cross of Christ, and the offerings are types of the different aspects of Christ—Gen. 8:20-21:
1 
筑坛和其上的供物表征借着十字架将基督献给神。
The building of an altar and the offerings on it signify the offering of Christ to God through the cross.
2 
我们在召会生活里需要作的第一件事,是在十字架上被了结,然后经历基督并把我们所经历的基督献给神,使神得着满足─弗五2,来十三15,彼前二5。
The first thing we need to do in the church life is to be terminated on the cross and then experience Christ and offer to God the Christ whom we have experienced for God's satisfaction—Eph. 5:2; Heb. 13:15; 1 Pet. 2:5.
三 
在召会生活里,我们被带回到神原初的定旨,就是彰显神并代表神─创九1~7,一26。
In the church life we are brought back to God's original purpose for the expression and representation of God—Gen. 9:1-7; 1:26.
四 
我们的基督徒生活以及召会生活是约的生活;因为召会生活是在神的约之下的生活,实际上我们可以称为“约的召会”─九12~17,来十三20~21。
Our Christian life and church life are a covenant life; because the church life is a life under God's covenant, we can actually be called "the church of the covenant"—9:12-17; Heb. 13:20-21.
叁 
浸入基督的信徒应当在生命的新样中生活行动,好在基督复活的生命中过召会生活,使基督的身体得着建造─罗六3~5,十二4~5:
As those who have been baptized into Christ, the believers should walk in newness of life in order to live the church life in the resurrection life of Christ for the building up of the Body of Christ—Rom. 6:3-5; 12:4-5:
一 
在约翰福音里,我们看见在复活里之召会生活的图画─二1~22,十二1~11:
In the Gospel of John we have a picture of the church life in resurrection— 2:1-22; 12:1-11:

基督是复活,是生命,(十一25,)祂变死亡为生命,使神的家得着建造─二1~22:
Christ, who is the resurrection and the life (11:25), changes death into life for the building of the house of God—2:1-22:
a 
自从祂复活那一天,主耶稣一直在复活的生命里扩大祂的身体─19~22节。
Since the day of His resurrection, the Lord Jesus has been enlarging His Body in resurrection life—vv. 19-22.
b 
今天我们仍在“三日”内,(19,)因为主仍在复活的过程中,为着建造祂的身体作工。
Today we are still within the "three days" (v. 19), because the Lord is still working for the building up of His Body under the process of resurrection.
c 
我们基督徒的生活乃是变死亡为生命的事,使基督奥秘的身体得着建造。
Our living as Christians is a matter of changing death into life for the building up of the mystical Body of Christ.
2 
约翰十二章一至十一节是在基督复活里之召会生活的小影─由复活生命所产生的团体生活,就是有主同在的筵宴生活,以及有服事、作见证、并爱主之功用的生活。
In John 12:1-11 is a miniature of the church life in Christ's resurrection—a corporate life produced by the resurrection life, a life of feasting in the presence of the Lord, and a life with the functions of serving, testifying, and loving.
二 
在使徒行传里,我们看见在复活里召会生活的繁殖─一22,二24,31~32,三15,四2,10,33,五30,十40~41,十三29~30,33~34,37,十七18:

使徒是复活基督的见证人,他们不仅以言语,更以生活行动见证祂,特别是见证祂的复活─一22,二32,四33。
The apostles were witnesses of the resurrected Christ, not only in word but also by their life and action, especially bearing witness of His resurrec-tion—1:22; 2:32; 4:33.
2 
见证基督的复活,乃是完成神新约经纶的重点─中心点。
Bearing witness of Christ's resurrection is the crucial point, the focus, in carrying out God's New Testament economy.
三 
在罗马书里,保罗说到在生命的新样中生活行动,使基督的身体显为在地方上的召会─六3~5,十二4~5,十六1,4:
In Romans Paul speaks of walking in newness of life for the Body of Christ expressed as local churches—6:3-5; 12:4-5; 16:1, 4:
1 
受浸乃是我们与基督联合的表明;借着受浸,我们浸入基督并成为新人,以祂为我们的范围,使我们在祂的死与复活里,与祂联合为一─六3。
Baptism signifies our identification with Christ; through baptism we are immersed into Christ and become a new person, taking Him as our realm, that we may be united with Him in His death and resurrection—6:3.
2 
在生命的新样中生活行动,乃是在复活的范围里生活,并在生命中作王─五17。
To walk in newness of life means to live in the realm of resurrection and to reign in life—5:17.
3 
在基督复活的样式里,就是在生命的新样中生活行动,这样的生活行动乃是为着身体,这身体绝对是在基督复活的生命里─六5,十二4~5。
To be in the likeness of Christ's resurrection is to walk in newness of life, and such a walk is for the Body, which is absolutely in the resurrection life of Christ—6:5; 12:4-5.
