壹 
基督在祂的升天里,就职、被高举并登宝座,以执行神宇宙的行政并完成神新约的经纶─徒二33、36,五31,腓二9,启五6:
In His ascension Christ was inaugurated, exalted, and enthroned to execute God's universal administration and to carry out God's New Testament economy—Acts 2:33, 36; 5:31; Phil. 2:9; Rev. 5:6:
一 
基督的升天乃是祂就职进入祂属天的职任,为着祂天上的职事;这些职任包括祂是万人的主(徒十36)、基督(二36)、元首和救主(五31)、地上君王的元首(启一5)、召会的元首(弗一22~23)、执事(来八2)和大祭司(四14~15,七25~27):
Christ's ascension was His inauguration into His heavenly offices for His heavenly ministry; these offices include His being the Lord of all (Acts 10:36), the Christ (2:36), the Leader and Savior (5:31), the Ruler of the kings of the earth (Rev. 1:5), the Head of the church (Eph. 1:22-23), the Minister (Heb. 8:2), and the High Priest (4:14-15; 7:25-27):
1 
从拿撒勒来的那人在升天里就职,作万人的主─太二23,徒三6,十36,二二8,二六9。
The man from Nazareth was inaugurated in His ascension to be the Lord of all—Matt. 2:23; Acts 3:6; 10:36; 22:8; 26:9.
2 
祂的就职需要一段漫长的过程,开始于创造,继之以成为肉体、人性生活、钉十字架与复活。
His inauguration required a lengthy process that began with creation and continued with incarnation, human living, crucifixion, and resurrection.
3 
基督作为神与人、创造主与受造者、以及救赎主、救主和赐生命的灵,在升天里就职,以执行神宇宙的行政,并完成神新约的经纶。
In His ascension Christ was inaugurated as God and man, as the Creator and a creature, and as the Redeemer, the Savior, and the life-giving Spirit to execute God's universal administration and to carry out God's New Testament economy.
二 
基督的升天乃是神对祂的高举─二33:
Christ's ascension was God's exaltation of Him—2:33:
1 
主耶稣降卑自己到了极点,神却将祂升为至高─腓二7~9。
The Lord Jesus humbled Himself to the uttermost, but God exalted Him to the highest peak—Phil. 2:7-9.
2 
在升天里,基督是神所高举者,得着超乎万名之上的名─9~11节:
In ascension Christ is the God-exalted One, the One who has received a name that is above every name—vv. 9-11:
a 
宇宙中至高的名,至大的名,就是耶稣的名─成为肉体、钉死、复活、升天并得高举者的名。
The highest name in the universe, the greatest name, is the name of Jesus—the name of the incarnated, crucified, resurrected, ascended, and exalted One.
b 
主耶稣是人,在祂的升天里被神立为主;因此,万口都要承认祂是主─徒二36,腓二10~11。
God made the Lord Jesus, as a man, the Lord in His ascension; thus, every tongue will confess that He is Lord—Acts 2:36; Phil. 2:10-11.
3 
在祂的升天里,基督得着荣耀尊贵为冠冕─来二9。
In His ascension Christ was crowned with glory and honor—Heb. 2:9.
4 
在祂的升天里,基督就职为宇宙的头;全宇宙的头乃是耶稣─西一18,弗一22~23。
In His ascension Christ was inaugurated into the headship of the universe; the Head of the whole universe is Jesus—Col. 1:18; Eph. 1:22-23.
三 
在祂的升天里,基督登宝座以执行神宇宙的行政,并完成神新约的经纶─启五6,弗一10:
In His ascension Christ was enthroned to execute God's universal administration and to carry out God's New Testament economy—Rev. 5:6; Eph. 1:10:
1 
基督坐在神宝座的右边,指明祂已经登宝座─来十二2,徒二33。
For Christ to be seated at the right hand of the throne of God indicates that He has been enthroned—Heb. 12:2; Acts 2:33.
2 
基督现今在宝座上,执政管理整个宇宙;祂是独一的执政管理者,是万王之王,万主之主─启十九16。
Christ is now on the throne to administrate the entire universe; He is the unique Administrator, the King of kings and Lord of lords—Rev. 19:16.
3 
基督的执政管理与宇宙有关,但祂完成神新约的经纶,乃是繁殖祂自己,作祂的复制,以建造召会,就是祂的身体─太十六19,二八19,徒一8。
Christ's administration is related to the universe, but His carrying out of God's New Testament economy is to propagate Himself for His reproduction to build up the church, His Body—Matt. 16:19; 28:19; Acts 1:8.
贰 
基督繁殖的工作是在祂的升天里─太二八19,徒一8:
Christ's work of propagation is in His ascension—Matt. 28:19; Acts 1:8:
一 
使徒行传的主题是:复活的基督在升天里,凭着那灵,借着门徒,为着产生众召会─神的国─的繁殖─3节:
The subject of the book of Acts is the propagation of the resurrected Christ in His ascension, by the Spirit, through the disciples, for the producing of the churches—the kingdom of God—v. 3:
1 
复活的基督在祂升天里的繁殖,产生众召会─八1,十三1,十四23。
The propagation of the resurrected Christ in His ascension produces the churches—8:1; 13:1; 14:23.
2 
复活的基督在祂的升天里所产生的众召会,乃是神的国─十九8。
The churches produced by the resurrected Christ in His ascension are the kingdom of God—19:8.
二 
繁殖是主从诸天之上的宝座执行出来的;这就是说,祂繁殖的工作是在升天里─二33、36,来十二2,启五6:
Propagation is carried out by the Lord on the throne in the heavens; this means that His work of propagation is in ascension—2:33, 36; Heb. 12:2; Rev. 5:6:
1 
升天是主地上工作的性质和范围。
The ascension is the nature and the sphere of the Lord's work on earth.
2 
今天主恢复里的工作该是在升天里的工作─有属天的性质并在属天范围里的工作。
The work of the Lord in His recovery today should be a work in ascension—a work that has a heavenly nature and is in a heavenly sphere.
叁 
升天的基督执行神宇宙的行政并完成神新约的经纶,乃是借着祂的身体─弗一22~23:
The ascended Christ executes God's universal administration and carries out God's New Testament economy through His Body—Eph. 1:22-23:
一 
我们需要看见,因着召会是基督的身体,召会的地位与升天基督的地位完全一样─西一18,二19,林前十二27:
We need to see that because the church is the Body of Christ, the position of the church is exactly the same as that of the ascended Christ—Col. 1:18; 2:19; 1 Cor. 12:27:
1 
这身体乃是基督的身体;基督是那已登宝座并得着天上、地上、甚至地底下的主权与权柄的一位。
The Body is the Body of Christ, the One who has been enthroned and given the lordship and authority in heaven and on earth and even under the earth.
2 
祂得了一切的权柄,而我们作为基督的身体,乃是与祂联合的;所以我们是在诸天界里,我们有权柄,并且我们能运用权柄─弗一19~23,二6:
He has received all authority, and as the Body we are identified with Him; therefore, we are in the heavenlies, we have the authority, and we can exercise the authority—Eph. 1:19-23; 2:6:
a 
身体的权柄乃是身体所运用之头的权柄;因此,身体的权柄就是头的权柄。
The authority of the Body is the authority of the Head exercised by the Body; thus, the authority of the Body is the authority of the Head.
b 
我们作为召会,基督的身体,需要运用复活、升天之基督的权柄─太二八18~19上,路十19。
As the church, the Body of Christ, we need to exercise the authority of the resurrected and ascended Christ—Matt. 28:18-19a; Luke 10:19.
二 
基督执行神的行政并完成神的经纶,乃是借着召会的祷告─太六9~13,徒十二5下:
Christ executes God's administration and carries out God's economy through the prayer of the church—Matt. 6:9-13; Acts 12:5b:
1 
召会作基督身体的祷告,乃是运用升天之主与身体之元首基督的权柄,为着成就神经纶的祷告─弗一10,太六9~13。
The prayer of the church as the Body of Christ is the prayer that exercises the authority of Christ as the ascended Lord and Head of the Body for the fulfilling of God's economy—Eph. 1:10; Matt. 6:9-13.
2 
召会祷告的中心目标乃是神永远经纶的目标─就是基督得着一个荣耀的召会作祂的配偶,使祂得满足的目标─弗五27。
The central goal of the church's prayer is the goal of the eternal economy of God—the goal of Christ having a glorious church as His counterpart for His satisfaction—Eph. 5:27.
3 
使徒行传启示,使徒们所作的工作是完全倚靠神而作的,正如他们的祷告所指明的;他们将自己祷告到神里面,也将神祷告到他们里面─一14,二1~4,四24~31,六4,十9~16,十二4~14,十三1~4,十六23~26,二二17~21。
The book of Acts reveals that the apostles' work was done in full dependence on God as indicated by their prayer; they prayed themselves into God, and they prayed God into them—1:14; 2:1-4; 4:24-31; 6:4; 10:9-16; 12:4-14; 13:1-4; 16:23-26; 22:17-21.
三 
基督执行神的行政并完成神的经纶,乃是借着我们作生命的工作,与升天基督的行动配合─在生命里为着广传福音的行动─八26~29,九10~11,十1~3、9~22。
Christ executes God's administration and carries out God's economy through our correspondence to the move of the ascended Christ by doing a work of life—a move in life for the spread of the gospel—8:26-29; 9:10-11; 10:1-3, 9-22.
