纲目
1贰 我们要为着召会这一个新人，接受基督作我们的人位—弗三17上，四24，西三4、10~11：

51 我们在基督里的信徒都与基督是一，成为这个新人；因此，我们众人乃是这一个团体新人的各部分，是新人的组成分子—弗四24。

14西三4 基督是我们的生命，祂显现的时候，你们也要与祂一同显现在荣耀里。
14Col. 3:4 When Christ our life is manifested, then you also will be manifested with Him in glory.
1510~11 并且穿上了新人；这新人照着创造他者的形像渐渐更新，以致有充足的知识；在此并没有希利尼人和犹太人、受割礼的和未受割礼的、化外人、西古提人、为奴的、自主的，唯有基督是一切，又在一切之内。
1510-11 And have put on the new man, which is being renewed unto full knowledge according to the image of Him who created him, where there cannot be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free man, but Christ is all and in all.
16基督要安家在我们心里，我们就需要接受祂，不但作生命，也作人位。一个人的主要构成成分是心思、情感和意志。所以，我们要接受基督作人位，就需要否认己，就是否认心思、情感和意志，并且我们不该顾到己，乃该顾到基督。……当我们正要买一样物品时，应该祷告：“主啊，你是我的人位。你要买这个么？你若要，我就买，但你若不要，我就不买。”我们若在购物上以基督为人位，就能宣告：“现在购物的，不再是我，乃是基督。”这就是经历加拉太二章二十节的实际（李常受文集一九七一年第一册，五二三页）。
16In order for Christ to make His home in our heart, we need to take Him not only as our life but also as our person. The main constituents of a person are his mind, emotion, and will. Therefore, in order to take Christ as our person, we need to deny our self, that is, our mind, emotion, and will, and instead of caring for our self, we should care for Christ…When we are about to purchase a certain item, we should pray, “Lord, You are my person. Do You want to buy this? If You do, I will buy it, but if You do not, I will not buy it.” If we take Christ as our person in our shopping, we will be able to declare, “It is not I who shop but Christ.” This is to experience the reality of Galatians 2:20. (CWWL, 1971, vol. 1, p. 382)

17接受基督作人位乃是最好的路，使我们拒绝一切规条，并享受祂这位包罗万有者，祂是我们的一切。我们在日常行事为人的一切大小事上，都该与基督核对，告诉祂：“我接受你作人位。你若要作这件事，我就作，你若不要，我就不作。”……配偶激怒我们时，我们不该求基督帮助我们不发脾气，只该借着否认己并让祂活在我们里面，凭祂作人位而活。我们接受基督作人位时，祂就成为我们的一切。我们不要想靠自身努力而有圣别、忍耐、属灵或爱，因我们若凭基督作人位而活，祂自然而然就会成为我们的圣别、忍耐、属灵和爱。……我们若在日常生活中以基督作人位，聚会就会丰富、高昂，并且使人得着复苏和满足；因我们来在一起时，每人都会带来自己的那一分基督，并且彼此分享我们对祂的享受。这就是正确的基督徒生活和召会生活。
17Taking Christ as our person is the best way to reject all our ordinances and enjoy Him as the all-inclusive One, the One who is everything to us. In all the things in our daily walk, whether great or small, we should check with Christ, telling Him, “I take You as my person. If You want to do this, I will do it, but if You do not, I will not do it.”…When our spouse irritates us, instead of asking Christ to help us not lose our temper, we should simply live by Him as our person by denying the self and allowing Him to live in us. When we take Christ as our person, He becomes everything to us. We should not try to be holy, patient, spiritual, or loving by our own effort, for if we live by Christ as our person, He will spontaneously be our holiness, patience, spirituality, and love. If we take Christ as our person in our daily life, our meetings will be rich, uplifting, refreshing, and satisfying, for when we come together, each of us will bring our portion of Christ and share our enjoyment of Him with one another. This is the proper Christian life and church life.
18我们需要为着建造召会，以基督作人位。神永远的心意不是要得着许多个别的信徒，乃是要得着召会，就是祂团体的彰显。以弗所一章启示，基督作为神的能力产生召会。二章启示，基督作为成就和平者，在祂的肉体里废掉了一切规条，好创造新人（14~15）。召会不但是基督的身体，并且是新人。……身体是生命的事，而人不但与生命有关，并且与人位有关。树有生命，也是活的，但没有人位。相反的，人不但有生命，并且有人位。同样，基督的身体需要基督作生命，而新人不但需要基督作生命，也需要基督作人位。召会是团体人，新人，“在此……基督是一切，又在一切之内。”（西三10~11）在新人里没有天然的人，不必考虑种族、宗教或文化，因在新人里只有一个人位—基督。
18We need to take Christ as our person for the building up of the church. God’s eternal intention is not to have many individual believers but the church, His corporate expression. Ephesians 1 reveals that Christ as the power of God brings forth the church. Ephesians 2 reveals that Christ as the Peacemaker abolished in His flesh all the ordinances in order to create the new man (vv. 14-15). The church is not only the Body of Christ but also the new man…A body is a matter of life, whereas a man involves not only a life but also a person. A tree has a life and is living, but it does not have a person. In contrast, a man has not only a life but also a person. Similarly, the Body of Christ needs Christ as its life, whereas the new man needs Christ not only as its life but also as its person. The church is a corporate man, the new man, where “…Christ is all and in all” (Col. 3:10-11). In the new man there can be no natural persons, regardless of race, religion, or culture, for in the new man there is only one person—Christ.
19今天我们很接近这世代的末了，主在这世代要恢复正确的召会生活，并借着建造祂的身体，就是新人，使祂得以快快回来。……我们若都凭着己而活，来在一起时就会有许多天然的人。结果，我们就会分裂。然而，我们若都凭着基督作人位而活，不论众人的种族、文化或国籍为何，我们会在祂里面是一，因我们会进入新人的实行，在新人里基督是独一的人位。新人独一的人位基督会建造祂的身体，就是祂团体的彰显，以达成神永远的心意（李常受文集一九七一年第一册，五二三、五二五至五二六页）。
19Today we are close to the end of the present age in which the Lord intends to recover the proper church life and hasten His return by building up His Body, which is the new man…If we all live by the self, when we come together, there will be many natural persons. As a result, we will be divided. However, if we all live by Christ as our person, we will be one in Him, regardless of our race, culture, or nationality, for we will enter into the practicality of the new man, where Christ is the unique person. Christ as the unique person of the new man will build up His Body, His corporate expression, for the fulfillment of God’s eternal intention. (CWWL, 1971, vol. 1, pp. 382, 384-385)
