神在信仰里的经纶那管制并支配的异象

第一篇　神在信仰里的经纶那管制并支配的异象
第一周　周三
纲目
1七 按着神的心愿，神永远的经纶乃是要使人在生命和性情上，但不在神格上，与祂一模一样，使祂自己与人成为一，也使人与祂成为一，因而使祂在彰显上得以扩大并扩展，使祂一切神圣的属性得以彰显在人性美德里—约一12~14，约壹三1上、2，彼后一4。
1G According to the desire of His heart, God's eternal economy is to make man the same as He is in life and nature but not in the Godhead and to make Himself one with man and man one with Him, thus to be enlarged and expanded in His expression, that all His divine attributes may be expressed in human virtues—John 1:12-14; 1 John 3:1a, 2; 2 Pet. 1:4.
2八 神圣的经纶是要从混乱的旧造里产生出新造—加六15，林后五17：
2H The divine economy is to produce the new creation out of the chaotic old creation—Gal. 6:15; 2 Cor. 5:17:
3１ 宇宙的历史乃是神的经纶与撒但的混乱的历史—创一1~2、26，启二十10~二一4。
3１ The history of the universe is a history of God's economy and Satan's chaos—Gen. 1:1-2, 26; Rev. 20:10—21:4.
4２ 在圣经里，并在我们的经历中，撒但的混乱总是与神圣的经纶并行的—弗三8~10，四14~16，六24。
4２ Both in the Bible and in our experience, the satanic chaos always goes along with the divine economy—Eph. 3:8-10; 4:14-16; 6:24.
5３ 主需要得胜者与祂成为一，好征服撒但毁坏的混乱，并在祂建造的神圣经纶里得胜—启二7下、11下、17下、26~28，三5、12、21。
5３ The Lord needs the overcomers, who will be one with Him to conquer the destructive satanic chaos and to triumph in the constructive divine economy—Rev. 2:7b, 11b, 17b, 26-28; 3:5, 12, 21.
6九 主的恢复乃是为着完成神的经纶—弗三2。
6I The Lord's recovery is for the carrying out of God's economy—Eph. 3:2.

7启二17 那灵向众召会所说的话，凡有耳的，就应当听。得胜的，我必将那隐藏的吗哪赐给他…。
7Rev. 2:17 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, to him I will give of the hidden manna…
8三21 得胜的，我要赐他在我宝座上与我同坐，就如我得了胜，在我父的宝座上与祂同坐一样。
83:21 He who overcomes, to him I will give to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat with My Father on His throne.
9神圣的经纶是要从混乱的旧造里产生出新造。这新造的产生要一直地进行，直到千年国的末了（启二十）。那就是新天新地和新耶路撒冷一同显现出来的时候。圣城新耶路撒冷要成为神圣经纶的终极完成。…新耶路撒冷乃是今天召会生活的扩大和终极完成。…在召会生活里，我们借着撒但混乱的帮助，经历神圣的经纶。撒但的混乱帮助我们基督徒的生活，也帮助我们召会的生活。
9The divine economy is to produce the new creation out of the chaotic old creation. This producing of the new creation will continue until the end of the millennium (Rev. 20). That will be the time for the new heaven and the new earth to appear with the New Jerusalem. The New Jerusalem, the holy city, will be the consummation of the divine economy. The New Jerusalem will be the enlargement and consummation of today’s church life… In the church life we experience the divine economy with the help of the satanic chaos. The satanic chaos helps our Christian life and also our church life.
10基督第一次的来，或者说基督来临的头一部分，引进了新约的经纶。祂第二次的来，或者说祂来临的第二部分，要终极完成新约的经纶。在引进和终极完成之间，有很长一段召会生活的时期。召会生活也是基督来临的一部分。基督已经来了，但祂的来临仍然在召会生活中进行着。召会生活的过程就是基督来临的过程。
10Christ’s first coming, or the first part of Christ’s coming, initiated the New Testament economy. His second coming, or the second part of His coming, will consummate the New Testament economy. Between the initiation and the consummation, there is the long period of the church life. The church life is also a part of Christ’s coming. Christ has come, yet His coming is still taking place in the church life. The process of the church life is the process of Christ’s coming.
11今天我们都在经历召会的生活。召会生活乃是基督来临的过程。每一次一个罪人受浸，那就是基督来临的更进一步。照样，我们在生命中的长大，也是祂来临的更进一步（李文集一九九一至一九九二年第三册，二九八至二九九页）。
11Today we are experiencing the church life, which is the process of Christ’s coming. Every time a sinner is baptized, that is a further step of Christ’s coming. Likewise, our growth in life is the advancement, the furthering, of His coming.

12我们必须享受基督作隐藏的吗哪，就是特别一分的滋养供应，以胜过堕落召会的属世，以及巴兰拜偶像的教训，和尼哥拉党宗教阶级制度的教训（启二12~17上）。主将吗哪公开地赐给以色列人。每早晨在他们营地的周围，有吗哪公开地给他们吃（出十六14~18）。但这吗哪有一小部分被保存在帐幕约柜里的金罐中（33，来九4）。那是隐藏的吗哪。公开的吗哪是基督作普通的一分，给所有神的子民公开享受。隐藏的吗哪，表征隐藏的基督，是特别的一分，保留给祂得胜的寻求者，就是那些胜过了属世召会之堕落的人。
12We have to enjoy Christ as the hidden manna, a special portion of the nourishing supply, to overcome the worldliness of the degraded church with the idolatrous teaching of Balaam and the hierarchical teaching of the Nicolaitans (Rev. 2:12-17a). The Lord gave manna to the children of Israel openly. Every morning around their camp the manna was there in an open way for them to eat (Exo. 16:14-18). But a small portion of this manna was preserved in a golden pot within the Ark in the tabernacle (v. 33; Heb. 9:4). That is the hidden manna. The open manna is Christ as the common portion to all of God’s people for them to enjoy in a public way. The hidden manna, signifying the hidden Christ, is a special portion reserved for His overcoming seekers, who overcome the degradation of the worldly church.
13我们必须对基督有一些更深的经历。我们对基督的经历不该只是公开地在聚会中，更是隐藏地在至圣所里，就是在那作约柜（神的见证）的基督自己里的。
13We must have some deeper experience of Christ. Our experience of Christ should not merely be openly in the meetings but hiddenly in the Holy of Holies, even in Christ Himself as the Ark, the testimony of God.
14在主的恢复里，我们必须胜过圣品人与平信徒的制度。我们众人都有地位作基督身体的肢体，为主说话。若有人问我们，我们的牧师是谁，我们该说在我们中间每一个人都是“牧师”。我们都能为主说话，并教导真理。我们在聚会中为主说话，乃是废掉了阶级的制度。
14In the Lord’s recovery we have to overcome the clergy-laity system. All of us have the position as members of the Body of Christ to speak for the Lord. If someone asks us who our pastor is, we should say that everyone among us is a “pastor.” All of us can speak for the Lord and teach the truth. Our speaking for the Lord in the meetings is the annulling of the hierarchy.
15我们必须是热的，甚至是焚烧的，而不是不冷不热的，买火炼的金子、白衣、眼药，使我们不至被主从口中吐出去，乃要被邀请与主一同坐席，并在主宝座上与主同坐（启三15~21）。我们必须在今世就是与主一同坐席的人，使我们能在国度时代里，在主宝座上与主同坐。在主宝座上与主同坐，乃是给得胜者的奖赏，使他有分于主的权柄，并与祂一同作王，在要来的千年国里管理全地（李文集一九九一至一九九二年第三册，三二一至三二三、三二五页）。
15We need to be hot, even burning, instead of being lukewarm, to buy gold refined by fire, white garments, and eyesalve, that we may not be spewed out of the Lord’s mouth but may be invited to dine with the Lord and to sit with Him on His throne (Rev. 3:15-21). We need to be those who dine, who feast, with the Lord in this age so that we can sit on the throne with the Lord in the kingdom age. To sit with the Lord on His throne will be a prize to the overcomer so that he may participate in the Lord’s authority and be a co-king with Him to rule over the whole earth in the coming millennial kingdom. (CWWL, 1991-1992, vol. 3, “The Satanic Chaos in the Old Creation and the Divine Economy for the New Creation,” pp. 258-259, 261)
