10林后三18 但我们众人既然以没有帕子遮蔽的脸,好像镜子观看并返照主的荣光,就渐渐变化成为与祂同样的形像,从荣耀到荣耀,乃是从主灵变化成的。
102 Cor. 3:18 But we all with unveiled face, beholding and reflecting like a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord Spirit.
11罗八29~30 ……神所预知的人,祂也预定他们模成神儿子的形像,……又称他们为义;所称为义的人,又叫他们得荣耀。
11Rom. 8:29-30 …Those whom He foreknew, He also predestinated to be conformed to the image of His Son…those whom He justified, these He also glorified.
12我们作为神人也有神圣的权利有分于神的形像。……〔林后三章十八节“同样的形像”〕就是复活并得荣之基督的形像。在神的创造里,人是在外面按着神的形像被造;但我们所要变化成为的形像,乃是内在的。变化成为与祂同样的形像,就是模成神长子这复活得荣之基督的形像,成为与祂一式一样(罗八29)。
12As God-men, we also have the divine right to participate in God’s image… [“The same image” in 2 Corinthians 3:18] is the image of the resurrected and glorified Christ. In God’s creation man was made in God’s image in an outward way, but the image into which we are being transformed is something inward. To be transformed into the same image is to be conformed to the resurrected and glorified Christ, as the firstborn Son of God, to be made the same as He is (Rom. 8:29).
13变化乃是一种新陈代谢。变化所包含的新陈代谢,可比作我们肉身在吃、消化并吸收食物之后所发生的事。……我们基督徒乃是神人,我们里面都有主灵,而主灵正在我们里面进行一种新陈代谢改变的过程,将我们变化成为基督的形像。新陈代谢地变化为复活得荣之基督的形像,就是有分于神的形像(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第四册,二七三页)。
13The metabolism involved in transformation is comparable to that which takes place in our physical body after we eat, digest, and assimilate food… We Christians, who are God-men, all have the Lord Spirit within us, and the Lord Spirit is in the process of carrying out a metabolic change in our being, transforming us into the image of Christ. To be metabolically transformed into the image of the resurrected and glorified Christ is to participate in God’s image. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 4, “Incarnation, Inclusion, and Intensification,” p. 216)

14至终,我们要被带进神的荣耀,有分于神的荣耀。希伯来二章十节说,神要领许多的儿子进荣耀里去。保罗在罗马八章三十节说到这事:“祂所预定的人,又召他们来;所召来的人,又称他们为义;所称为义的人,又叫他们得荣耀。”得荣耀乃是神完整救恩的一步,在此神用祂生命和性情的荣耀完全浸透我们的身体。这样,祂就将我们的身体改变形状,使之同形于祂儿子复活、荣耀的身体(腓三21)。这是神生机救恩终极的一步,在此神就得着完满的彰显,至终要显明于新耶路撒冷(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第四册,二七三至二七四页)。
14Eventually, we will be brought into God’s glory to participate in His glory. Hebrews 2:10 says that God is leading many sons into glory. Paul refers to this in Romans 8:30: “Those whom He predestinated, these He also called; and those whom He called, these He also justified; and those whom He justified, these He also glorified.” Glorification is the step in God’s complete salvation in which God will completely saturate our body with the glory of His life and nature. In this way He will transfigure our body, conforming it to the resurrected, glorious body of His Son (Phil. 3:21). This is the ultimate step in God’s organic salvation, wherein God obtains a full expression, which will be manifested ultimately in the New Jerusalem. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 4, “Incarnation, Inclusion, and Intensification,” pp. 216-217)
15神的……一个奇妙属性是荣耀。行传七章二节说,“我们的祖宗亚伯拉罕……,荣耀的神向他显现。”五十五节说,“司提反……定睛望天,看见神的荣耀。”荣耀是神的彰显,是神在辉煌中彰显出来。神的荣耀对亚伯拉罕是极大的吸引,将他从世界分别出来归给神。神的荣耀也是极大的鼓励和力量,使亚伯拉罕能以跟从神(创十二14)。
15[A] marvelous attribute of God is glory. Acts 7:2 says, “The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham.” Acts 7:55 says, “He [Stephen] looked intently into heaven and saw the glory of God.” Glory is the expression of God, God expressed in splendor. God’s glory was a great attraction to Abraham, separating him from the world unto God. God’s glory was also a great encouragement and strength, enabling Abraham to follow God (Gen. 12:1, 4).
16彼后一章三节说,神用祂自己的荣耀和美德呼召我们,或呼召我们到祂自己的荣耀和美德。此外,彼前五章十节说,神召我们进入祂永远的荣耀。按提后二章十节,神的救恩乃是连同着永远的荣耀。这指明永远的荣耀是神救恩的终极目标(罗八21)。神的救恩领我们进入祂的荣耀(来二10)。
16Second Peter 1:3 says that God has called us to, or by, His own glory. Furthermore, 1 Peter 5:10 says that God has called us into His eternal glory. According to 2 Timothy 2:10, God’s salvation is with eternal glory. This indicates that eternal glory is the ultimate goal of God’s salvation (Rom. 8:21). God’s salvation leads us into His glory (Heb. 2:10).
17我们已被命定要得神的荣耀,并且蒙召来得这荣耀(林前二7帖前二12)。现今我们信徒正被变化到这荣耀里(林后三18),并且要被带进这荣耀里(来二10)。至终我们要与基督同得这荣耀(罗八1730),在新耶路撒冷里带着神的荣耀作神的彰显。……神创造我们作祂的器皿,以盛装祂并彰显祂〔九23〕。神在我们这些预备得荣耀的器皿上,彰显祂荣耀的丰富。我们被祂的主宰预定来作祂的容器,祂贵重的器皿,以彰显祂在荣耀里的所是。这要在新耶路撒冷里完全得显明。……新耶路撒冷一个显著的特色是有神的荣耀(启二一11),有神的彰显。新耶路撒冷全城要带着神的荣耀,这荣耀就是神自己经过那城照耀出来(新约总论第一册,一三一至一三二页)。
17We have been ordained for God’s glory and called to it (1 Cor. 2:7; 1 Thes. 2:12). As believers, we are being transformed into this glory (2 Cor. 3:18) and shall be brought into it (Heb. 2:10). Eventually, we shall be glorified with Christ (Rom. 8:17, 30) to bear the glory of God for God’s expression in the New Jerusalem. God created us as His vessels to contain Him and express Him [Rom. 9:23]. God makes known the riches of His glory upon us, His vessels, which He has prepared unto glory. We were predestinated by His sovereignty to be His containers, vessels of honor, to express what He is in glory. This will be fully revealed in the New Jerusalem. An outstanding feature of the New Jerusalem is that it has the glory of God (Rev. 21:11), His expression. The entire city of New Jerusalem will bear the glory of God, which is God Himself shining out through the city. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, pp. 111-112)

今日要点
19主题:神人有权利有分于神的形像和荣耀
19
20
211.有分于神的形像:
21
22a.我们这些神人有神圣的权利有分于神的形像,昨天提到林后三18下,从主灵,也就是有分于神的所是,今天要提到本节的中间,变化成为与祂同样的形像,这里同样的形像,就是复活并得荣之基督的形像,基督乃是神的像,彰显神所是的,因此,不仅我们有神的所是,更在外面彰显神所是的,也就是神的形像。
22
23B.创一26指出,人是在外面按着神的形像被造,但那时人却没有接受生命树所表征神的生命,今天,我们所说,要变化成为的形像,乃是内在的,不仅接受了神的生命,更要借着新陈代谢的变化过程,成为与祂同样的形像,模成神长子这复活得荣之基督的形像,成为与祂一式一样。
23
242.有分于神的荣耀:
24
25A.罗八29~30指出,我们不仅模成神儿子的形像,且要得荣耀,所以,我们这些神人不仅经历模成,更经历得荣,有神圣的权利有分于神的荣耀,被带进神的荣耀,得荣耀乃是神完整救恩的一步,在此神用祂生命和性情的荣耀完全浸透我们的身体,使我们身体改变形状,使之同形于祂儿子复活、荣耀的身体。
25
26B.得荣耀不是像赛跑得奖,考试得第一,也不是为神作什么,或帮助人一些事,而有基督教所谓的荣神益人,得荣乃是神生机救恩终极的一步,在此神就得着完满的彰显,最终要显明于新耶路撒冷,这是我们的命定,这也是我们蒙召的目的,从重生开始,我们正被变化到这荣耀里,并且要被带进这荣耀里,最终,我们要与基督同得这荣耀,在新耶路撒冷里带着神的荣耀作神的彰显。
26
27应用:划定每天固定的时间,以祷告的灵来读主的话,而使我们进入新陈代谢的变化过程,使我们吃、消化、吸收属灵的食物,而使我们里面有改变,而有分于神的形像。
