The Christian life is a life of faith; we live according to what we believe— 8:5-13; Gal. 3:2, 14; John 20:25-29; Heb. 11:6:

信心在于看见神经纶的内容─来十二2：
Faith is a matter of seeing a view of the contents of God's economy—Heb. 12:2:

Because we have seen a revelation regarding the contents of God's econ-omy, we spontaneously believe in what we see—Eph. 3:9.

２

当我们在话里向主敞开，思想祂这包罗万有的一位，光就进来，我们会有一个反应，一个“喀嚓”，将真理的神圣景象带到我们灵里；这反应就是信。
As we open to the Lord in the Word, considering Him as the all-inclusive One, and the light comes in, there will be a reaction, a "click," which brings the divine scenery of the truth into our spirit; this reaction is faith.

信需要对象；我们信的对象，乃是奇妙的主耶稣，祂有一切的权柄，并且祂自己乃是最高的权柄。
Faith needs an object; the object of our faith is the wonderful Lord Jesus who has all authority and who, in Himself, is the highest authority.

３　

每当我们在某一方面认识主耶稣，因着这认识，结果我们就有了信─十六16。
Whenever we realize the Lord Jesus in a certain way, we have faith as a result of that realization—16:16.

四　

我们是信徒，就是信主耶稣的人─徒五14，提前四12。

陆　

大卫“在灵里”，称祂为主─太二二43：
David "in spirit" called Him Lord—Matt. 22:43:

一　

我们只有在灵里，借着神的启示，才能认识基督─弗三5。
Christ can be known by us only in our spirit through God's revelation—Eph. 3:5.

二　

我们若已经看见大卫的子孙是包罗万有的基督这启示，就该转向我们的灵，在灵里呼求祂为“主”。
If we have seen the revelation concerning the Son of David as the all-inclusive Christ, we should turn to our spirit and in spirit call Him "Lord."
