13终极完成的神与重生信徒这宇宙合并的三方面,启示在约翰十四至十六章:家、树和孩子。十六章给我们看见那灵所生的孩子(21)。这孩子就是基督。至终,这孩子成了新人。歌罗西三章告诉我们,基督就是这新人;祂是新人的每一个肢体,又在每一个肢体之内(10~11)。在神眼中,约翰十四至十六章里的家、树和人都是基督。基督是家,殿,就是神的居所;基督是葡萄树;基督又是新人(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第五册,四四四页)。
13The three aspects of the universal incorporation of the consummated God with the regenerated believers are revealed in John 14 through 16: a house, a tree, and a child. John 16 shows us the child born of the Spirit (v. 21). This child is Christ. Eventually, this child becomes the new man. In Colossians 3 we are told that Christ is this new man. He is every member and is in every member of the new man (vv. 10-11). In God’s eyes the house, the tree, and the man in John 14 through 16 are all Christ. Christ is the house, the temple, the dwelling place of God; Christ is the vine tree; and Christ is the new man.
