2A The entire Bible, both the Old Testament and the New Testament, is first a picture of God’s economy and then a full definition and fulfillment of God’s economy—Eph. 1:10; 1 Tim. 1:4.
3B The Bible is a record of the divine revelation concerning God’s eternal economy, of which Christ is the center and the reality—John 14:6; Col. 1:15; 3:11:
6C God’s economy, the key to the Bible, is the Triune God with His plan and arrangement to dispense Himself in His Divine Trinity into His chosen, redeemed, and regenerated people as their life, their life supply, and their everything to make them His corporate expression, initially as the Body of Christ and ultimately as the New Jerusalem—Eph. 3:9:
71 我们若看见神的经纶乃是圣经的钥匙,我们就会使用这把钥匙来读圣经的每一卷书。
71 If we see that God’s economy is the key to the Bible, we will use this key in our study of every book of the Bible.
