在最纯洁、最神圣的意义上,圣经是一对宇宙配偶的罗曼史─神在基督里是新郎,神所救赎的人是新妇─约三29,太二五6,启十九7,二一2,二二17:

主需要得胜者来完成神的经纶,好得着基督的身体,以完成新耶路撒冷─提前一4,弗一10,三9,一22~23,启二7下,三12,21,二一2:
The Lord needs the overcomers to carry out the economy of God to have the Body, which consummates the New Jerusalem—1 Tim. 1:4; Eph. 1:10; 3:9; 1:22-23; Rev. 2:7b; 3:12, 21; 21:2:
一 
得胜者的原则乃是,得胜者站在全召会所当站的地位上,替召会作事情;得胜者所作的乃是为着全召会,而全召会得着这工作的祝福─太十六18。
The principle of the overcomers is that the overcomers take the position which the whole church should take and do the work of the church; the work of the overcomers is for the whole church, and the whole church receives the blessing of this work—Matt. 16:18.
二 
得胜者看见身体、认识身体、顾到身体、并在身体里,借着身体且为着身体而活─罗十二4~5,林前十二12,18,24下~27,弗二16,四4,16,西二19。
The overcomers see the Body, know the Body, care for the Body, and live in the Body, through the Body, and for the Body—Rom. 12:4-5; 1 Cor. 12:12, 18, 24b-27; Eph. 2:16; 4:4, 16; Col. 2:19.

在召会生活这筵宴所中,基督的爱旗展开在祂的佳偶以上─歌二4:

1 
神在基督里的爱,是在我们以上展开的旌旗,陈列、展示我们蒙神所爱的人始终是得胜有余的。
God's love in Christ is a banner spreading over us, displaying, exhibiting, that we who are loved by God are always more than conquerors.

肆 
在雅歌里,基督的佳偶在各阶段中得胜:
In Song of Songs the lover of Christ overcomes in stages:
一 
在本书第一阶段,(一2~二7,)她因着被基督所夺取,胜过世界的吸引─一2~4上:
In the first stage of this book (1:2—2:7), she overcomes the attraction of the world by being captivated by Christ—1:2-4a:
1 
得胜者该被基督吸引,甚至被祂夺取,舍弃世界以跟随祂─太四18~22,十六24~26。
An overcomer should be attracted by Christ and even captivated by Him to give up the world to follow Him—Matt. 4:18-22; 16:24-26.

The lover rests in and experiences Christ and is satisfied in the church life—1:12—2:7.
二 
在第二阶段,(二8~三5,)基督的佳偶因着与基督的十字架成为一,胜过使她与基督的同在隔离的己:
In the second stage (2:8—3:5) the lover of Christ overcomes the self, which secluded her from the presence of Christ, by becoming one with the cross of Christ:
1 
在二章十四节,基督呼召祂的佳偶与十字架合一;只有基督的十字架能拯救她脱离往自己里面看所造成的光景。
In 2:14 Christ calls for His lover to be in oneness with the cross; only the cross of Christ can deliver her from the situation caused by introspection.
2 
基督要祂的寻求者不断地驻留于十字架,驻留于钉十字架的光景中─路九23,加二20上,林前十五31,林后四10~11。
Christ wants His seeker to remain in the cross, in a crucified condition, continually—Luke 9:23; Gal. 2:20a; 1 Cor. 15:31; 2 Cor. 4:10-11.
3 
乃是借着基督复活的大能,基督的佳偶定意否认己而背起十字架,并能与祂的十字架成为一而模成基督的死─歌二8~9上,11~13,腓三10。
It is by the power of Christ's resurrection that the lover of Christ deter-mines to take the cross by denying the self and is enabled to be conformed to the death of Christ by being one with the cross—S. S. 2:8-9a, 11-13; Phil. 3:10.
4 
我们若不愿意钉十字架,却留在我们的怪僻里,这“小狐狸”就会毁坏我们对基督复活的经历─歌二15。
If we are unwilling to be crucified and we remain in our peculiarity, this "little fox" will destroy our experience of Christ's resurrection—S. S. 2:15.
三 
在第三阶段,(三6~五1,)基督佳偶的己受了十字架的对付以后,就借着在复活里活在基督的升天里,胜过旧造(物质的事物):
In the third stage (3:6—5:1) the lover of Christ overcomes the old creation (the physical things) by living in the ascension of Christ in resurrection after her self has been dealt with by the cross:
1 
她借着与基督完全的联合而成为新造,因此她是神选民得胜的代表─三6。
She becomes a new creation by her complete union with Christ, and thus she is an overcoming representative of God's elect—3:6.
2 
她在得胜之基督的得胜里,满了得胜者的能力;这些得胜者都善于争战─7节。
She is the victory of the overcoming Christ, full of the power of the over-comers; these overcomers are experts in war—v. 7.
3 
泉和井从得胜者流出来,从他们的所是和他们的所在流出来─四15。
The fountain and the spring stream out from the overcomers, flowing out from what they are and from where they are—4:15.
四 
在第四阶段,(五2~六13,)基督的佳偶借着在幔子内生活,胜过肉体、天然的人、旧人;这需要对十字架更深的经历:
In the fourth stage (5:2—6:13) the lover of Christ overcomes the flesh, the natural man, the old man, by living within the veil; this requires a deeper experience of the cross:
1 
当基督得胜的佳偶与神成为一,作神的居所时,在神眼中她美丽如得撒,秀美如耶路撒冷;然而,对仇敌而言,她威武如展开旌旗的军队─六4。
When the overcoming lover of Christ becomes one with God to be God's dwelling place, in the eyes of God she is as beautiful as Tirzah and as lovely as Jerusalem; however, to the enemy she is as terrible as an army with banners—6:4.
2 
那些被算为配作得胜者的人,将是较软弱、倚靠主的人─13节,参启三8,罗九16,加二20。
Those who are counted worthy to be overcomers will be the weaker ones who depend on the Lord—v. 13; cf. Rev. 3:8; Rom. 9:16; Gal. 2:20.
