1E Elisha’s resurrecting the dead from death, giving life to the dead, is the same as what the Lord Jesus did, both physically and spiritually—2 Kings 4:18-37; Luke 7:11-17; John 11:41-44; 5:25.
2F Elisha’s nullifying the poison of the wild gourds with flour is the same in principle as the Lord Jesus’ healing His disciples of the leaven of the Pharisees with Himself as the fine flour—2 Kings 4:41; Matt. 16:12.
3G Elisha’s causing an axe head that had fallen into the water to float by means of a wooden stick signifies Christ’s recovering through His cross in resurrection the lost power of sinners that had fallen into the death water—2 Kings 6:6; Eph. 2:1-6.
7在今天的基督教里有许多教训是“有毒的瓜”。有些基督教的著作很好,但很多是不纯净的。我们曾推荐慕安得烈(Andrew Murray)……和其他人的一些著作。我们曾特别推荐慕安得烈的杰作《基督的灵》,以及麦敦诺师母(Mary E. McDonough)所著《神救赎的计划》,和安汝慈(Ruth Paxson)所著《最高层面的生命》(Life on the Highest Plane)。我们中间也有倪弟兄的职事。倪弟兄年轻时,他的职事为西教士所拒绝,但今天全世界有心寻求的基督徒,都知道他的职事。因着主的怜悯和恩典,在已过七十年,圣经中几乎所有重大、要紧的启示,都已包括在倪柝声弟兄和我的职事里。我劝你们要留意这些纯正、健康的事物,不要浪费时间去收集“有毒的瓜”。
