纲目
1壹 我们作为在基督里的信徒和神的儿女，需要从一切打岔中得释放，被带回归向基督自己—弗三8、14~18，西三10~11：

2一 神要基督在万有中作中心，并在万有中居首位—基督是一切，又在一切之内—一15~18。
2
3二 基督是奇妙的；祂是全宇宙中的奇妙，基督之所是的每一项都是奇妙的—赛九6，士十三18，弗三8。
3
4三 神的旨意，就是神在宇宙中永远的定旨和愿望，乃是要叫基督作我们的一切，并叫基督作到我们的里面，成为我们的生命和一切—17节上。

5四 保罗写他的书信，是因为他清楚，许多美好的事物，包括道理、伦理、道德、教训、文化，都使人受打岔离开基督—腓三4~8：
5
61 使徒保罗给我们看见，这些事物不是基督自己，并指明它们若使我们受打岔离开基督，就是与基督相对—林前七35。

72 当我们转离所有打岔人的事物并转向基督，我们就被带回归向基督自己，使我们可以认识基督，经历基督，享受基督，彰显基督，并被基督构成—加二20，四19，腓三9~10。

8腓三7~8 只是从前我以为对我是赢得的，这些，我因基督都已经看作亏损。……我也将万事看作亏损，因我以认识我主基督耶稣为至宝；我因祂已经亏损万事，看作粪土，为要赢得基督。
8Phil. 3:7-8 But what things were gains to me, these I have counted as loss on account of Christ...I also count all things to be loss on account of the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, on account of whom I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as refuse that I may gain Christ.
9神的心意就是祂永远的定旨，这定旨是出于祂心头的愿望（弗一9~11，三9~11）。……在包罗万有的基督里，我们有神、人、创造主、受造之物、救赎主、救赎、神圣的生命、人的生命和许多其他正面的事物。……少有信徒领悟神救恩的目的，不光是洁净我们的罪、拯救我们不下地狱并救拔我们脱离悲伤。作为基督里的信徒，我们领会神爱我们、我们是有罪的、我们离开基督的结局就是下火湖。我们也承认我们需要神的一些事物，就如平安和喜乐。然而，我们也许从来没有领会，神的心意和祂救恩的目的，是要将包罗万有的基督作到我们里面，作我们的力量、亮光、引导、健康、知识、智慧和一切。神……按着祂的形像，创造我们作为器皿，以盛装祂作我们的内容（李常受文集一九六四年第二册，一○一至一○二页）。
9God’s intention is His eternal purpose, which comes out of His heart’s desire (Eph. 1:9-11; 3:9-11)...In the all-inclusive Christ we have God, man, the Creator, the creature, the Redeemer, redemption, the divine life, the human life, and many other positive matters. Not many believers realize that the purpose of God’s salvation involves more than cleansing us from our sins, saving us from hell, and rescuing us from sorrow. As believers in Christ, we realize that God loves us, that we are sinful, and that our destiny apart from Christ is to go to the lake of fire. We also recognize the fact that we need certain things of God, such as peace and joy. However, we may never have realized that God’s intention and the purpose of His salvation is to work the all-inclusive Christ into us as our strength, light, guidance, health, knowledge, wisdom, and everything...God created us as vessels in His image to contain Him as our content. (CWWL, 1964, vol. 2, p. 81)

10一般说来，我们基督徒的方向偏离了基督。我们应该只有一个方向，就是基督自己。今天许多信徒热中于基督以外的许多美好事物。……然而，他们虽然在名义上有基督，他们每天的经历却远离基督。
10In general, our direction as Christians is away from Christ. We should have only one direction—Christ Himself. Many believers today are for many good things other than Christ...Although they may have Christ in name, Christ is very distant from their daily experience.
11我将这件事带到你们面前，催促你们到主面前，向祂敞开自己。你可以告诉祂：“主，我听了关于你的事，也看见了关于你永远定旨的事。你要作我的一切。主，在你的光中并在你的同在里暴露我。给我看见我在哪里，以及我是什么。”
11I simply bring this matter to you and urge you to go to the Lord and open yourself to Him. You may tell Him, “Lord, I have heard something about You and have seen something concerning Your eternal purpose. You want to be everything to me. Lord, expose me in Your light and in Your presence. Show me where and what I am.”
12我们都需要祷告，好看见基督在我们日常生活中是我们的生命和一切这个异象。我们需要领略关于基督当前的亮光、启示、异象和看见。……我们必须从主接受新的怜悯和恩典，使我们能放下一切美好的事物，甚至是最好的事物，而努力面前的，好得着基督自己（腓三7~8、13）。
12We all need to pray to see the vision of Christ being life and everything to us in our daily life. We need to apprehend the present light, the present revelation, the present vision, and the present seeing of Christ...We must receive new mercy and grace from the Lord so that we may be able to drop all the good things—even the best things—and stretch forward to lay hold of Christ Himself (Phil. 3:7-8, 13).
13老底嘉的召会以他们所达到的为满足（启三17）。老底嘉的圣徒所得着的，成了遮蔽他们眼睛的帕子。为这缘故，主劝他们要买眼药，使他们得以看见（18）。真正的眼药是放下我们所有的一切。若有一条手帕盖住我的眼睛，最好的“眼药”乃是拿下手帕。
13The church in Laodicea was satisfied with what it had attained (Rev. 3:17). What the saints in Laodicea possessed became a veil that covered their eyes. For this reason the Lord counseled them to buy eyesalve that they might see (v. 18). The real eyesalve is the dropping of everything that we have. If there is a handkerchief covering my eyes, the best “eyesalve” is simply to drop the handkerchief.
14我们拥有的许多事物起头都是神赐给我们的。然而，因着这些事物对我们已成为老旧的，它们在我们的经历中就成了死的，并成为我们的帕子。……放下邪恶和错误的事物还不够；我们甚至必须放下美好和正确却变得老旧的事物。……一件事物即使是好的，但若变得老旧并失味，对我们也无益处。
14Many of the things that we have were originally given to us by God. However, because these things have become old to us, they have become dead in our experience and have become veils to us...It is not enough to drop the evil and wrong things; we must drop even the good and right things that have become old...Even if something is good, it does not benefit us if it has become old and tasteless...
15我们今天所需要的，乃是现今的、活的、当前的基督。基督自己没有改变（来十三8）；然而，……我们对基督的领会、看见和经历，必须是活的、新颖的、新鲜的、当前的、现今的。我的负担不是要给主的儿女更多道理和教训；我的负担是愿主开启我们的眼睛，将我们带进对祂自己新的经历里。我们不该以我们既有的为满足。我们需要放下一切老旧的经历，放下我们已过所达到的，并且不将任何事物留在我们手中。我们该双手空空地向主敞开自己，仰望祂使我们对祂这活的一位有新的经历（李常受文集一九六四年第二册，一○八至一一○页）。
15What we need today is the present, living, up-to-date Christ. There is no change with Christ...However,...we must have an understanding, realization, and experience of Christ that is living, new, fresh, up-to-date, and present. My burden is not to give the Lord’s children more doctrines and teachings; my burden is that the Lord would open our eyes and bring us into the new experience of Himself. We should not be content with what we have. We need to drop all our old experiences, drop what we have attained in the past, and retain nothing in our hands. We should simply open ourselves to the Lord with empty hands, looking unto Him for a new experience of Him as the living One. (CWWL, 1964, vol. 2, pp. 85-87)
