16我们住在〔三一神〕里面,就给祂一条路三一的住在我们里面。三一神现今住在我们里面,因此我们已经生根在祂里面。我们生根在祂里面,父神就作工,借着灵神来加强我们,使子神基督深深安家在我们心里;我们的心是由心思(来四12)、意志(徒十一23)、情感(约十六6、22)和良心(来十22)组成的。在祂开始安家在我们心里以前,我们的心思、情感、意志和良心里没有祂。然而,等我们开始求父神使我们得以加强到里面的人里,基督就逐渐开始占有我们的心思,接管我们的情感和意志,并占有我们的整个良心。 16Our abiding in [the Triune God] affords Him a way to abide in us triunely. The Triune God is now abiding in us, so we have been rooted into Him. While we are rooted into Him, the Father works to strengthen us through God the Spirit so that God the Son, Christ, may make His home deep down in our heart, which is composed of our mind (Heb. 4:12), will (Acts 11:23), emotion (John 16:6, 22), and conscience (Heb. 10:22). Before He began to make His home in our heart, our mind, emotion, will, and conscience were devoid of Him. However, since we began to pray that God the Father would strengthen us into the inner man, Christ gradually began to occupy our mind, take over our emotion and will, and possess our entire conscience.
