13罗十二1~2 所以弟兄们,我借着神的怜恤劝你们,将身体献上,当作圣别并讨神喜悦的活祭,这是你们合理的事奉。不要模仿这世代,反要借着心思的更新而变化,叫你们验证何为神那美好、可喜悦、并纯全的旨意。
13Rom. 12:1-2 I exhort you therefore, brothers, through the compassions of God to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, well pleasing to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be fashioned according to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of the mind that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and well pleasing and perfect.
14在罗马十二至十三章中所提的每一项,都是为着过身体的生活。每一项都要求我们受神圣生命的管治。所有这些项目都是小的事情,但唯有当我们受神圣生命的管治时,我们才能作到这些事。
14All the items mentioned in Romans 12 through 13 are for the living of the Body life. Each item requires us to be ruled by the divine life. All these items are small things, yet they can be done by us only when we are ruled by the divine life.
15将我们的身体献上,当作活祭(十二1),乃是在生命中作王的事。若不是在生命中作王,没有人能将自己的身体献上,当作活祭。当我们在生命中作王时,我们就不模仿这世代,反要借着心思的更新而变化,验证何为神的旨意(2)。……当我们受神圣生命的控制,我们必然会照着神所分给各人信心的度量,看得清明适度(3下)。我们对自己的看法,像一匹野马一样;但借着在生命中作王,我们的看法就受到约束(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第五册,五六一至五六二页)。
15To present our bodies a living sacrifice (12:1) is a matter of reigning in life. Without reigning in life, no one can present his body a living sacrifice. When we reign in life, we are not being fashioned according to this age but are being transformed by the renewing of the mind, proving what the will of God is (v. 2). When we are controlled by the divine life, we surely will think so as to be sober-minded, as God has apportioned to each a measure of faith (v. 3b). Our thinking about ourselves is like a wild horse. But by reigning in life, our thinking is bridled. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 5, “Crystallization-study of the Complete Salvation of God in Romans,” p. 444)

16当〔执事和女执事〕受神圣生命的管治时,他们就会在各自特别的服事上,忠于服事(罗十二7上)。……当我们在神圣生命的管治下,我们就能教导、劝勉、单纯地分授、殷勤地带领并甘心乐意地施怜悯(7下~8)。照样,当我们是一个在神圣生命管治下的人,我们就会在恭敬人的事上,互相争先(10下)。
16When [the deacons or deaconesses] are ruled by the divine life, they will serve faithfully in their particular service (Rom. 12:7a). As we are under the ruling of the divine life, we are able to teach, exhort, give in simplicity, lead in diligence, and show mercy in cheerfulness (vv. 7b-8). Likewise, when we are under the ruling of the divine life, we will take the lead in showing honor one to another (v. 10b).
17罗马十二章九至二十一节这一段,是说到为着基督身体的生活,活出最高美德的生活。……凭我们自己,我们永远无法实行这些美德。我们唯有借着在生命中作王,才能为着基督身体的生活,过这种最高美德的生活。……我们天然的生命是作不到的,但借着在神圣生命的管治之下过生活,我们就能有这些美德,而过身体的生活。我们要看见身体生活得建造,成为实行上的实际,就必须在生命中作王;而在实行上,在生命中作王就是在神圣生命的管治之下。
17Romans 12:9-21 is a section on living a life of the highest virtues for the Body life…We can have such a living for the Body life [not in ourselves but] only by reigning in life…Our natural life cannot make it; but by living a life under the ruling of the divine life, we are able to live the Body life with these virtues. To see the Body life built up as a practical reality, we must reign in life, and to reign in life in practice is to be under the ruling of the divine life.
18神的意愿是要得着身体的生活。十三章给我们看见,一个在身体生活中的人所活出之生命的另外一些方面。……唯有活在神圣生命的管治下,我们才能成为这种人。我们必须服从一切的权柄,看见他们乃是在神主宰的安排下所设立的。不仅如此,我们必须凡事都不亏欠人,唯有彼此相爱,要常以为亏欠;且要爱邻舍如同自己。最后,我们必须“在白昼”过儆醒的生活(13)。我们在生命中作王的一个果效,乃是睡醒过来,儆醒留意,不被这世代所迷惑而沉睡。我们必须是那些不为肉体打算,不放纵私欲的人,乃要睡醒过来,好像在白昼,穿上主耶稣基督作我们的第二件衣服(诗四五13~14),活出祂作我们主观的义,并且显大祂。……神完整的救恩是要我们凭神洋溢之恩(神自己作我们生机救恩的全足供应),并洋溢之义的恩赐(神法理的救赎实际地应用在我们身上),在生命中作王。当我们都在生命中作王,在神圣生命的管治下生活,结果就有真实、实际的身体生活(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第五册,五六二至五六三页)。
18God’s will is to have the Body life. Romans 13 presents some additional aspects of the life of one who is living in the Body life…Only by living under the ruling of the divine life can we be this kind of people. We must be subject to all authorities, realizing that they have been established under the sovereign arrangement of God. Furthermore, we must owe nothing to anyone except to love one another, loving our neighbor as ourselves. Finally, we must live a watchful life “in the day” (v. 13). One effect of our reigning in life is that we are awakened, made alert, made watchful, and not lulled to sleep by this age. We must be those who make no provision for the flesh to fulfill its lusts but rather are awake as in the day, putting on the Lord Jesus Christ as our second garment (Psa. 45:13-14) to live Him as our subjective righteousness and to magnify Him. God’s complete salvation is for us to reign in life by the abundance of grace (God Himself as our all-sufficient supply for our organic salvation) and of the gift of righteousness (God’s judicial redemption applied to us in a practical way). When we are all reigning in life, living under the ruling of the divine life, the issue is the real and practical Body life. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 5, “Crystallization-study of the Complete Salvation of God in Romans,” pp. 444-445)
19保罗开始说到召会生活,就恳求信徒将身体献上,因为就着人说,没有什么比我们的身体更真实、更实际。你的身体若不在召会生活里,请不要说你自己多么为着召会生活。……我们是在我们的身体里。我们的身体在哪里,我们就在哪里(罗马书生命读经,三五二至三五三页)。
19When Paul began to speak about the church life, he implored the believers to present their bodies because as human beings nothing is more real and practical than our body. If your body is not in the church life, please do not say how much you yourself are for the church life…We are in our bodies. Where our bodies are, we are. (Life-study of Romans, p. 298)

今日要点
23主题:在生命中作王,结果乃是身体生活。
23
24引经:罗十二1~2
24
251.身体生活的每一项,都需要我们接受神圣生命的管治:我们在生命中作王,在神圣生命的管治之下,其结果乃是真实并实际的身体生活,显在召会生活中,这也就是罗马书十二至十六章所说的,在这里所说到过身体生活的每一项,都需要我们接受神圣生命的管治而向主活,并借着在生命中作王,为着身体生活,活出最高美德的生活。在罗十二1~2,说到我们要将身体献上,当作活祭,这乃是在生命中作王的事,否则没有人能够将身体献上,也没有人能够不模仿这世代,也没有人能够借着心思的更新而变化,验证何为神的旨意,并且照着神所分给各人信心的度量,看得清明适度。
25
262.在生命中作王,使我们活出身体的生活:我们需要在生命中作王,使我们在各自的服事上,忠于服事,并且能教导、劝勉、单纯的分授、殷勤的带领,甘心乐意的施怜悯,在恭敬人的事上互相争先,并且实行这些美德,活出最高美德的生活。惟有活在神圣生命的管治之下,我们才能服从一切的权柄,看见神主宰安排下所设立的,并且不亏欠人,彼此相爱,常常以为亏欠,爱邻舍如同自己,在白昼过儆醒的生活,穿上主耶稣基督作我们第二件衣服,活出主观的义,有真实、实际的身体生活。应用:为着身体生活,我们需要操练我们的全人,不仅将身体献上,心思得更新,灵里火热服事主,而过实际的身体生活。
