贰
我们借着经历并享受三一神，就得以认识祂—约壹一5，二27，四16，五11~12：
We come to know the Triune God by experiencing Him and enjoying Him—1 John 1:5; 2:27; 4:16; 5:11-12:
We come to know the Triune God by experiencing Him and enjoying Him—1 John 1:5; 2:27; 4:16; 5:11-12:
一
三一神不仅是我们信仰的对象；祂乃是住在我们里面，作我们的生命和生命的供应，给我们经历并享受—四13~15。
The Triune God is not merely the object of our faith; He is dwelling in us as our life and life supply for our experience and enjoyment—4:13-15.
The Triune God is not merely the object of our faith; He is dwelling in us as our life and life supply for our experience and enjoyment—4:13-15.
二
我们需要借着内在的享受主观的神，而在经历上认识三一神—二27，四4。
We need to know the Triune God experientially through the inner enjoyment of the subjective God—2:27; 4:4.
We need to know the Triune God experientially through the inner enjoyment of the subjective God—2:27; 4:4.
三
我们若要认识三一神，就必须在生命这条线上，并在生命长大的过程里；我们越在生命里长大，就越关切神圣的三一—二13~18。
If we would know the Triune God, we must be in the line of life and in the process of the growth in life; the more we grow in life, the more we will be concerned with the Divine Trinity—2:13-18.
If we would know the Triune God, we must be in the line of life and in the process of the growth in life; the more we grow in life, the more we will be concerned with the Divine Trinity—2:13-18.
叁
当三一神成为我们的经历和享受时，祂不仅是那在宝座上宇宙般广大的一位，祂也是那在我们心里的一位—启四2~3，五6，约壹三19~21：
When the Triune God becomes our experience and enjoyment, He is not only the One on the throne who is universally vast, but He is also the One in our heart—Rev. 4:2-3; 5:6; 1 John 3:19-21:
When the Triune God becomes our experience and enjoyment, He is not only the One on the throne who is universally vast, but He is also the One in our heart—Rev. 4:2-3; 5:6; 1 John 3:19-21:
一
我们不是在宇宙的宽广里认识三一神，乃是在我们个人心的范围里认识祂—来八10~11。
We know the Triune God not in the vastness of the universe but in the personal realm of our heart—Heb. 8:10-11.
We know the Triune God not in the vastness of the universe but in the personal realm of our heart—Heb. 8:10-11.
二
新约所关切的，是要我们认识那已经进到我们这人里面居住的三一神，认识那住在我们灵里，并渴望扩展到我们心的内里各部分的一位—弗三14~17上，约壹三19~21。
The concern of the New Testament is that we know the Triune God who has come to dwell in our being—the One who dwells in our spirit and desires to spread into all the inward parts of our heart—Eph. 3:14-17a; 1 John 3:19-21.

三
说到对三一神的认识，新约的路乃是个人的、细节的、经历的—二20、27，来十16。
The New Testament way for us to know the Triune God is personal, detailed, and experiential—2:20, 27; Heb. 10:16.
The New Testament way for us to know the Triune God is personal, detailed, and experiential—2:20, 27; Heb. 10:16.
四
这种认识三一神经历的路，是何其宝贵！
How precious is this experiential way of knowing the Triune God!
How precious is this experiential way of knowing the Triune God!
肆
新约和整本圣经一样，完全是以神圣三一为结构所组成的—太二八19，启一4~5，二二1~2：
The New Testament, like the Bible as a whole, is fully composed of and structured with the Divine Trinity—Matt. 28:19; Rev. 1:4-5; 22:1-2:
The New Testament, like the Bible as a whole, is fully composed of and structured with the Divine Trinity—Matt. 28:19; Rev. 1:4-5; 22:1-2:
一
整本新约都与三一神有关；三一神是新约的结构元素—弗三16，四4~6。
The entire New Testament is related to the Triune God; the Triune God is the element for the construction of the New Testament—Eph. 3:16; 4:4-6.
The entire New Testament is related to the Triune God; the Triune God is the element for the construction of the New Testament—Eph. 3:16; 4:4-6.
二
圣经陈明一幅图画，给我们看见神圣三一为着完成祂的经纶而有的行动—路十五3~32，弗二18。
The Bible presents us a picture of the move of the Divine Trinity for the accomplishment of His economy—Luke 15:3-32; Eph. 2:18.
The Bible presents us a picture of the move of the Divine Trinity for the accomplishment of His economy—Luke 15:3-32; Eph. 2:18.
三
圣经是照着一个管制原则写的，就是三一神作到祂所拣选并救赎的人里面，作他们的享受、饮料、生命的泉源和光—诗三六8~9。
The Bible was written according to the governing principle of the Triune God wrought into His chosen and redeemed people as their enjoyment, their drink, and their fountain of life and light—Psa. 36:8-9.
The Bible was written according to the governing principle of the Triune God wrought into His chosen and redeemed people as their enjoyment, their drink, and their fountain of life and light—Psa. 36:8-9.
四
在神话语中关于三一神的启示，乃是为着将神在祂的神圣三一里，分赐到祂所拣选并救赎的人里，作他们的经历和享受，使他们成为祂团体的彰显，直到永远—弗一3~23，四16，启二一2、10~11。
The revelation concerning the Triune God in the Word of God is for the dispensing of God in His Divine Trinity into His chosen and redeemed people for their experience and enjoyment so that they might become His corporate expression for eternity—Eph. 1:3-23; 4:16; Rev. 21:2, 10-11.

伍
帖撒罗尼迦前书是写给“在父神和主耶稣基督里，帖撒罗尼迦人的召会”—一1：
The Epistle of 1 Thessalonians is addressed to “the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ”—1:1:
The Epistle of 1 Thessalonians is addressed to “the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ”—1:1:
一
在帖撒罗尼迦的召会，一面是属于帖撒罗尼迦人的，另一面是在父神和主耶稣基督里的：
On the one hand, the church in Thessalonica was of the Thessalonians; on the other hand, this church was in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:
On the one hand, the church in Thessalonica was of the Thessalonians; on the other hand, this church was in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:
１
这样的召会是由父神所生，有祂的生命和性情，并在主耶稣基督一切的所是和所作里，与祂有生机的联结—约一12~13，林前一30，六17。
Such a church is born of God the Father with His life and nature and is organically united with the Lord Jesus Christ in all that He is and has done—John 1:12-13; 1 Cor. 1:30; 6:17.
Such a church is born of God the Father with His life and nature and is organically united with the Lord Jesus Christ in all that He is and has done—John 1:12-13; 1 Cor. 1:30; 6:17.
２
我们需要看见，召会是由那些在父神和主耶稣基督里的人所组成，他们有神的生命，并且与基督有生机的联结—约三15，十五1、5。
We need to see that the church is composed of human beings who are in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ, those who have the life of God and who are in the organic union with Christ—John 3:15; 15:1, 5.
We need to see that the church is composed of human beings who are in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ, those who have the life of God and who are in the organic union with Christ—John 3:15; 15:1, 5.
二
当保罗说到在父神和主耶稣基督里的召会，事实上他的意思是说，召会是在三一神里—帖前一1，林前一2，十二4~6：
When Paul speaks of the church in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, he actually means that the church is in the Triune God—1 Thes. 1:1; 1 Cor. 1:2; 12:4-6:
When Paul speaks of the church in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, he actually means that the church is in the Triune God—1 Thes. 1:1; 1 Cor. 1:2; 12:4-6:
１
“父神”和“主耶稣基督”这样的说法，都含示那灵；因此，帖前一章一节含示那灵是不言而喻的，我们可以说，召会是在三一神里的。
The expressions God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ both imply the Spirit; therefore, in 1 Thessalonians 1:1 the Spirit is implied and understood, and we may speak of the church being in the Triune God.
The expressions God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ both imply the Spirit; therefore, in 1 Thessalonians 1:1 the Spirit is implied and understood, and we may speak of the church being in the Triune God.
２
因为神圣三一的三者是不能分开的，所以每当我们有第一者父，我们也就有第二者子，也有第三者那灵—太十二28，罗八11，加四4~6。
Because the three of the Divine Trinity are inseparable, whenever we have the first, the Father, we also have the second, the Son, and the third, the Spirit—Matt. 12:28; Rom. 8:11; Gal. 4:4-6.
Because the three of the Divine Trinity are inseparable, whenever we have the first, the Father, we also have the second, the Son, and the third, the Spirit—Matt. 12:28; Rom. 8:11; Gal. 4:4-6.
３
父、子、灵是一位神，不是三位神；祂们虽有分别，却不分开—林后十三14：
The Father, the Son, and the Spirit are one God, not three; They are distinct but not separate—2 Cor. 13:14:
The Father, the Son, and the Spirit are one God, not three; They are distinct but not separate—2 Cor. 13:14:
ａ
我们无法将子从父分开，也无法将父和子从灵分开，因为三者都是同时存在、互相内在的—约十四10~11。
We cannot separate the Son from the Father, or the Father and the Son from the Spirit, because all three coexist and coinhere—John 14:10-11.
We cannot separate the Son from the Father, or the Father and the Son from the Spirit, because all three coexist and coinhere—John 14:10-11.
ｂ
就着祂们的永远同时并存而言，神格的三者彼此有别，但祂们的永远互相内在，却使祂们成为一。
In Their eternal coexistence the three of the Godhead are distinct, but Their eternal coinherence makes Them one.
In Their eternal coexistence the three of the Godhead are distinct, but Their eternal coinherence makes Them one.
４
在神圣的经纶里，神圣三一的三者在三个连续的时期里，分别作工且表显出来—弗一3~14：
In the divine economy the three of the Divine Trinity work and are manifested respectively in three consecutive stages—Eph. 1:3-14:
In the divine economy the three of the Divine Trinity work and are manifested respectively in three consecutive stages—Eph. 1:3-14:

The Son accomplishes everything that the Father has planned, originated, and initiated—vv. 7-12.
The Son accomplishes everything that the Father has planned, originated, and initiated—vv. 7-12.
ｃ
那灵执行、应用父所计划并子所成就的—13~14节。
The Spirit executes and applies what the Father has planned and what the Son has accomplished—vv. 13-14.
The Spirit executes and applies what the Father has planned and what the Son has accomplished—vv. 13-14.
ｄ
拣选是出于父，拯救是出于子，分赐或繁殖是出于那灵—帖前一3~6、10。
Selection is of the Father, deliverance is of the Son, and imparting, or propagating, is of the Spirit—1 Thes. 1:3-6, 10.
Selection is of the Father, deliverance is of the Son, and imparting, or propagating, is of the Spirit—1 Thes. 1:3-6, 10.
５
子来时，祂是同着父凭着灵而来；子实化为那灵，那灵作为子同着父而来—约十四26，十五26。
When the Son comes, He comes with the Father and by the Spirit; the Son is realized as the Spirit, and the Spirit comes as the Son with the Father—John 14:26; 15:26.
When the Son comes, He comes with the Father and by the Spirit; the Son is realized as the Spirit, and the Spirit comes as the Son with the Father—John 14:26; 15:26.
三
召会在父神和主耶稣基督里，意思是说，召会乃是在经过过程的三一神里—太二八19，弗四4~6：
For the church to be in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ means that the church is in the processed Triune God—Matt. 28:19; Eph. 4:4-6:
For the church to be in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ means that the church is in the processed Triune God—Matt. 28:19; Eph. 4:4-6:
１
按照圣经，我们找不到召会只在神里这回事；反之，召会乃是在经过过程的三一神里—林后十三14。
According to the Bible, there is no such thing as the church being merely in God; rather, the church is in the processed Triune God—2 Cor. 13:14.
According to the Bible, there is no such thing as the church being merely in God; rather, the church is in the processed Triune God—2 Cor. 13:14.
２
在创世记一章，神是没有经过过程的神，但在新约里，祂成了经过过程的三一神—约七37~39，腓一19。
In Genesis 1 God was the unprocessed God, but in the New Testament He has become the processed Triune God—John 7:37-39; Phil. 1:19.
In Genesis 1 God was the unprocessed God, but in the New Testament He has become the processed Triune God—John 7:37-39; Phil. 1:19.
３
“经过过程”是指三一神在神圣经纶里所经过的重要步骤—成为肉体、人性生活、钉十字架和复活：
Processed refers to the crucial steps through which the Triune God has passed in the divine economy: incarnation, human living, crucifixion, and resurrection:
Processed refers to the crucial steps through which the Triune God has passed in the divine economy: incarnation, human living, crucifixion, and resurrection:
ａ
在钉十字架时，主完成了救赎，了结了旧造，废除了撒但和死—弗一7，罗六6，来二14。
In crucifixion the Lord accomplished redemption, the termination of the old creation, and the destruction of Satan and death—Eph. 1:7; Rom. 6:6; Heb. 2:14.
In crucifixion the Lord accomplished redemption, the termination of the old creation, and the destruction of Satan and death—Eph. 1:7; Rom. 6:6; Heb. 2:14.
ｂ
在复活里，祂使新造有了新生的起头—林后五17。
In resurrection He germinated the new creation—2 Cor. 5:17.
In resurrection He germinated the new creation—2 Cor. 5:17.
ｃ
如今祂乃是赐生命的灵，作经过过程之三一神的终极完成—林前十五45下，林后三17上。
Now He is the life-giving Spirit as the ultimate consummation of the processed Triune God—1 Cor. 15:45b; 2 Cor. 3:17a.
Now He is the life-giving Spirit as the ultimate consummation of the processed Triune God—1 Cor. 15:45b; 2 Cor. 3:17a.
４
在经过过程之三一神里的召会，乃是在那成了赐生命之灵，同着父和子的一位里的召会—约十四20：
The church in the processed Triune God is the church in the One who has become the life-giving Spirit with the Father and the Son—John 14:20:
The church in the processed Triune God is the church in the One who has become the life-giving Spirit with the Father and the Son—John 14:20:
ａ
经过过程的三一神作为赐生命的灵，临到我们，接触我们，并在我们的经历中应用到我们身上—林前十五45下。
The processed Triune God reaches us, contacts us, and is applied to us in our experience as the life-giving Spirit—1 Cor. 15:45b.
The processed Triune God reaches us, contacts us, and is applied to us in our experience as the life-giving Spirit—1 Cor. 15:45b.

父在子里，子如今乃是赐生命的灵，住在我们里面—约十四10~11、16~17、20。
The Father is in the Son, and the Son is now the life-giving Spirit dwelling in us—John 14:10-11, 16-17, 20.
The Father is in the Son, and the Son is now the life-giving Spirit dwelling in us—John 14:10-11, 16-17, 20.
ｃ
当我们在父神和主耶稣基督里，我们就是在那灵里；因此，我们是在经过过程之三一神里的召会。
When we are in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, we are in the Spirit; thus, we are the church in the processed Triune God.
When we are in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, we are in the Spirit; thus, we are the church in the processed Triune God.
四
我们若看见召会在三一神里的异象，这异象会支配我们的思想、活动以及我们整个的生活—箴二九18上，徒二六19。
If we see the vision of the church in the Triune God, this vision will control our thinking, our activities, and our entire life—Prov. 29:18a; Acts 26:19.
If we see the vision of the church in the Triune God, this vision will control our thinking, our activities, and our entire life—Prov. 29:18a; Acts 26:19.
