基督是从神给我们的智慧，将祂自己传输到我们里面作为公义（使我们在灵里得重生）、圣别（使我们在魂里被变化）和救赎（使我们的身体改变形状）─林前一30，罗八10，十二2，八23，弗五25~27。

三
虹是神信实守约的记号，表明不再有死的审判；我们必须活在新约之下，不信任何的失败、软弱、黑暗、或消极的事物；我们是有约的人，我们有一节应许的经文可以应付每一种处境─哀三22~23，罗八1，林后十二9，提后一10，二1，犹24，约壹一9，林前一9。

神与亚伯拉罕所立的约，乃是基督作为亚伯拉罕的后裔，为要使地上的万族得福；作为末后的亚当，亚伯拉罕独一的后裔成了赐生命的灵─创十二2~3、7，十七7~8，加三14、16、29，林前十五45下，约十二24：

１
神向亚伯拉罕所应许的福，物质的一面就是美地（创十二7，十三15，十七8）；这美地预表包罗万有的基督作为包罗万有赐生命的灵（林前十五45下，林后三17）。
The physical aspect of the blessing that God promised to Abraham was the good land (Gen. 12:7; 13:15; 17:8), which is a type of the all-inclusive Christ as the all-inclusive life- giving Spirit (1 Cor. 15:45b; 2 Cor. 3:17).

２
基督作为赐生命的灵，乃是亚伯拉罕的福（加三14），就是向亚伯拉罕所应许之亚伯拉罕的后裔和美地的实际；今天我们的福乃是神自己，祂具体化身在基督里并实化为那灵，好分赐到我们里面，作我们的享受。
Christ as the life-giving Spirit is the blessing of Abraham (Gal. 3:14), the reality of both the seed of Abraham and the good land promised to Abraham; our blessing today is God Himself, who is embodied in Christ and realized as the Spirit to be dispensed into us for our enjoyment.

二
我们能借着听信仰，不断地接受基督这包罗万有赐生命的灵，使祂这亚伯拉罕的后裔在我们里面长大，并使我们享受祂这向亚伯拉罕所应许的地─2、5节，林后四13：
By the hearing of faith, we can continually receive Christ as the all-inclusive life-giving Spirit for His growth in us as the seed of Abraham and for our enjoyment of Him as the land promised to Abraham—vv. 2, 5; 2 Cor. 4:13:
By the hearing of faith, we can continually receive Christ as the all-inclusive life-giving Spirit for His growth in us as the seed of Abraham and for our enjoyment of Him as the land promised to Abraham—vv. 2, 5; 2 Cor. 4:13:
１
我们要接受那灵，就需要有耳可听那灵向众召会所说的话（启二7，参来五11~14）；那灵能分赐到我们里面诸部分的度量，在于我们听的度量（可四23~25，太十三14~16，五3、8，路十38~42）。
To receive the Spirit we need to have an ear to hear what the Spirit says to the churches (Rev. 2:7; cf. Heb. 5:11-14); the measure of the Spirit that can be dispensed into our in- ward parts depends on the measure of our hearing (Mark 4:23-25; Matt. 13:14-16; 5:3, 8; Luke 10:38-42).

２
我们需要借着爱主到极点，并以祂作我们绝对的奉献，而与作奴仆救主的基督是一，给祂有路开通我们的耳朵，听祂神圣的指示，祂新鲜的信息，这信息将神圣的那灵分赐到我们里面，使我们在神儿子的福音上，在我们的灵里事奉神─出二一1~6，赛五十4~5，腓三3，约六63，林后三6，罗一9。
We need to be one with Christ as the Slave-Savior by loving Him to the uttermost and taking Him as our absolute consecration, giving Him the way to open our ear to hear His divine instructions, His fresh messages, which dispense the divine Spirit into us for our service to God in our spirit in the gospel of His Son—Exo. 21:1-6; Isa. 50:4-5; Phil. 3:3; John 6:63; 2 Cor. 3:6; Rom. 1:9.

肆
神与大卫所立的约，乃是复活的基督作为大卫的后裔，完成神新约的经纶，为着将经过过程的三一神分赐到祂身体的肢体里─撒下七12~14上，罗一3~4，诗八九3、28：
The covenant God made with David is that the resurrected Christ as the seed of David carries out God's New Testament economy for the dispensing of the processed Triune God into the members of His Body—2 Sam. 7:12-14a; Rom. 1:3-4; Psa. 89:3, 28:

一
大卫的主在祂的神性里就是大卫的根，成为肉体，成了在人性里大卫的儿子，大卫的子孙，来作末后的亚当；末后的亚当，大卫的儿子，复活成了神的长子和赐生命的灵，就是改变形状的大卫后裔，分赐到我们里面，使我们成为神的许多儿子，并与基督一同作王─太二二41~46，启二二16，约一14，林前十五45下，约十一24，罗八28~29，徒十三33，罗五17。
The Lord of David in His divinity, the Root of David, was incarnated to become the son of David, the Offspring of David, in His humanity, to be the last Adam; and the last Adam, the son of David, was resurrected to become the firstborn Son of God and the life-giving Spirit, a transfigured descendant of David, dispensed into us to make us the many sons of God and co-kings of Christ—Matt. 22:41-46; Rev. 22:16; John 1:14; 1 Cor. 15:45b; John 12:24; Rom. 8:28-29; Acts 13:33; Rom. 5:17.

二
大卫的主成了大卫的儿子，以完成神法理的救赎；大卫的儿子（大卫的后裔）成了神的长子，作为赐生命的灵，以完成神生机的拯救。
The Lord of David became the son of David to accomplish God's judicial redemption; the son of David (the seed of David) became the firstborn Son of God as the life-giving Spirit to carry out God's organic salvation.

The resurrected Christ as the life-giving Spirit is the transfigured descendant of David, the seed of David, the seed of the kingdom, dispensed into us to make us the sons of the kingdom, reigning in life to live in the reality of the kingdom so that we may be translated by Him and return with Him in the manifestation of the kingdom as the corporate smiting stone to annihilate the kingdoms of this world and become a great mountain, the kingdom of God, that f ills the whole earth—Mark 4:26; Matt. 13:18-23, 38; Heb. 11:5-6; Gen. 5:21-24; Dan. 2:34-35.

伍
虽然律法已经在神的山上颁布，律法及其条例还需要制定成约─出二四1~8：
The law had been decreed on the mountain of God, but there was still the need for the law with its ordinances to be enacted as a covenant—Exo. 24:1-8:
The law had been decreed on the mountain of God, but there was still the need for the law with its ordinances to be enacted as a covenant—Exo. 24:1-8:
一
神永远的定旨是要得着一班人，作祂的配偶、祂的彰显和祂的居所；为要成就这定旨，神必须将祂自己分赐到祂的选民里面，并将祂自己作到他们里面：
God's eternal purpose is to have a people to be His counterpart, His expression, and His dwelling place; in order to fulfill this purpose, God must impart Himself into His chosen people and work Himself into them:
God's eternal purpose is to have a people to be His counterpart, His expression, and His dwelling place; in order to fulfill this purpose, God must impart Himself into His chosen people and work Himself into them:
１
从起初，神的心意就不是要人遵守诫命，或叫人为祂作事；照样，以色列人被带到神的山，神的心意也不是要赐给他们一长串神的诫命，要求他们履行。
From the very beginning it was not God's intention to give man commandments to keep or to have man do things for Him; likewise, in bringing the children of Israel to the mountain of God, it was not God's intention to give them a list of divine commandments as requirements for them to fulfill.

２
祂的心意乃是要把祂的百姓带到祂的同在里，使祂可以向他们启示祂自己，并借着对他们说话，将祂自己分赐到他们里面─参三四28~29。
Rather, His intention was to bring His people into His presence so that He could reveal Himself to them and impart Himself into them through His speaking to them—cf. 34:28-29.
Rather, His intention was to bring His people into His presence so that He could reveal Himself to them and impart Himself into them through His speaking to them—cf. 34:28-29.
３
然而，神的百姓不明白祂的心意；他们天然、堕落和宗教的观念，以为神要他们为祂作一些事，并自认为有能力作这些事─十九8，二四3、7。
God's people, however, did not understand His intention; their natural, fallen, and religious concept was that God wanted them to do certain things for Him, and they thought they were able to do these things—19:8; 24:3, 7.

In the new covenant the righteous requirement of the law is fulfilled in us spontaneously and unconsciously by our walking according to our mingled spirit with the inward working of the law of the Spirit of life—vv. 4, 2.
