1
2一 因着召会的堕落,基督这赐生命的灵已经七倍加强成为七灵——七倍加强赐生命的灵——启一4三1四5五6
2
3二 基督作为七倍加强赐生命的灵,加强祂生机的救恩,使信徒蒙拯救脱离:

4
52 在士每拿召会中的失败,导致尝到第二次的死——8~11节。

15启一4~5 ……愿恩典与平安,从那今是昔是以后永是的,从祂宝座前的七灵,……归与你们……。
15Rev. 1:4 …Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is coming, and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne.
16二4~5 然而有一件事我要责备你,就是你离弃了起初的爱。……要悔改,行起初所行的。不然,我就要临到你那里;你若不悔改,我就把你的灯台从原处挪去。
162:4-5 But I have one thing against you, that you have left your first love… Repent and do the first works; but if not, I am coming to you and will remove your lampstand out of its place, unless you repent.
17基督为着祂在总括时期中的职事,成了赐生命的灵,也就是那是灵的基督,以完成祂生机的救恩,为着产生召会,并建造祂的身体,而终极完成新耶路撒冷。但就在祂总括时期之职事的中途,尚未达到目的时,召会堕落了,阻挠神永远经纶的完成。因此,基督这一位赐生命的灵,就七倍的加强,成了神的七灵(启一4四5五6三1)。
17For His ministry in the stage of His inclusion, Christ became the lifegiving Spirit, the pneumatic Christ, to carry out His organic salvation for the producing of the church and the building up of His Body to consummate the New Jerusalem. However, on the way of His ministry in the stage of His inclusion, before He had attained His purpose, the church became degraded; such degradation frustrates the accomplishment of God’s eternal economy. Hence, Christ as the one life-giving Spirit was intensified sevenfold to become the seven Spirits of God (Rev. 1:4; 4:5; 5:6; 3:1).
18启示录这一卷书提到神的七灵,这七灵不是七位个别的灵,乃是一位七倍加强的灵。这是对圣经正确的讲解。……基督所以成为七倍加强的灵,目的是要七倍的加强神生机的救恩,为着建造基督的身体,以终极完成神永远的目标,就是新耶路撒冷(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第五册,三二○至三二一页)。
18The book of Revelation refers to the seven Spirits of God. The seven Spirits are not seven individual Spirits, but the one Spirit who is intensified sevenfold. This is the proper interpretation of the Word…Christ became the sevenfold intensified Spirit in order to intensify the organic salvation of God sevenfold for the building up of the Body of Christ to consummate God’s eternal goal, which is the New Jerusalem. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 5, “How to Be a Coworker and an Elder and How to Fulfill Their Obligations,” pp. 253-254)

19基督作为七倍加强的灵,拯救信徒脱离与召会堕落有关的事物。……在以弗所的召会失去了四样事物:真正、正确的召会生活,对主起初的爱,灯台照耀的性能,以及对基督作生命的享受。……七倍加强的灵拯救信徒脱离在以弗所召会中形式的召会生活,以及失去了对主起初的爱、灯台照耀的性能以及对基督作生命的享受(启二1~7)。……这是很严肃的一件事。在主的恢复里,有些召会可能失去了这四样事物。这些召会里的圣徒没有真实、真正的召会生活,只有形式的召会生活。圣徒们仍然彼此相爱,但他们的爱很形式化。他们对弟兄没有真实、真正的爱。不仅如此,这些召会里的圣徒虽然仍旧来聚会,却仅仅是形式化的参加聚会。好些圣徒都有这种形式。我们需要真,要真就是要在灵里,并在灵里作一切事。
19As the sevenfold intensified Spirit, Christ saves the believers from the things related to the degradation of the church…The church in Ephesus had lost four things: the genuine and proper church life, the first love toward the Lord, the shining capacity of the lampstand, and the enjoyment of Christ as life. The sevenfold intensified Spirit saves the believers from the formal church life, the loss of the first love to the Lord, the loss of the shining capacity of the lampstand, and the loss of the enjoyment of Christ as life in the church in Ephesus (Rev. 2:1-7)…Such [losses are] very serious. Some of the churches in the Lord’s recovery may have lost these four things. Instead of a real and genuine church life, the saints in these churches have only a formal church life. The saints still love one another, but their love is quite formal. They do not have the real and genuine love toward the brothers. Furthermore, the saints in these churches still come to the meetings, but they attend the meetings merely in a formal way. A good number of saints have this kind of formality. We need to be genuine, and to be genuine is to be in the spirit and do everything in the spirit.
20我们若失去对主起初的爱,我们对主就不再那样热切。我们虽然继续事奉祂,但我们的事奉却是冷淡的。我们需要蒙拯救,脱离形式的召会生活,并用焚烧的灵来事奉主(罗十二11)。
20If we have lost our first love to the Lord, we will not be warm toward Him. Although we may continue to serve Him, we will be cold in our serving. We need to be saved from a formal church life and serve the Lord with a burning spirit (Rom. 12:11).
21信徒也需要蒙拯救,脱离在别迦摩召会中,与世界联婚而带进的世俗,以及巴兰和尼哥拉党的教训(启二12~17)。……信徒也需要蒙拯救脱离在非拉铁非的召会所表征弟兄会的情形,就是失去已经得着的冠冕(三7~13)。
21The believers need to be saved also from the worldliness in union with the world as a marriage and the teaching of Balaam and the Nicolaitans in the church in Pergamos (Rev. 2:12-17). The believers need to be saved from the losing of the crown, which has been gained already in Brethrenism, signified by the church in Philadelphia (3:7-13).
22最后,基督作七倍加强的灵,拯救信徒脱离在老底嘉的召会所表征堕落的弟兄会中,不冷不热和没有基督的光景(14~22)。我们知道在老底嘉的召会没有基督,因为基督站在召会的门外叩门(20)。这指明我们可能名义上有基督,实际上却没有。我们需要小心,免得这成了我们今天的光景。我们都该为自己,不是为别人思想这些事(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第四册,三七五至三七八页)。
22Finally, Christ as the sevenfold intensified Spirit saves the believers from the lukewarmness and the Christlessness in degraded Brethrenism, signified by the church in Laodicea (vv. 14-22). We know that the church in Laodicea was Christ-less by the fact that He was outside the church, standing at the door and knocking (v. 20). This indicates that we may have Christ in name but not in reality. We need to be careful lest this becomes our situation today. We all should consider these matters not for others but for ourselves. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 4, “The Secret of God’s Organic Salvation—’the Spirit Himself with Our Spirit,’” pp. 290-291)

今日要点
24主题:认识并经历基督在第三个时期所完成的,经历祂生机的救恩
24
25引经:启一4~5启二4~5
25
261.为何需要基督在第三个时期的职事:
26
27A.基督为着祂在总括时期中的职事,成了赐生命的灵,以完成祂生机的救恩,为着产生召会,建造身体,终极完成新耶路撒冷,但就在祂总括时期之职事中途,尚未达到目的时,召会堕落了,阻挠了神永远经纶的完成,因此,基督这一位赐生命的灵,就七倍的加强,成了神的七灵。
27
28B.在启一4~5,虽然字面来说,这里的七灵,原文是复数,英文也译作seven Spirits,但我们要领会,这段经文在说到三一神,因此,这七灵不是七位个别的灵,乃是一位七倍加强的灵,一个灵加强七倍,这才是对圣经正确的讲解,因此,基督在第三个时期,加强的时期,从召会堕落到新耶路撒冷的终极完成,成就三件事。
28
292.加强祂生机的救恩,产生得胜者:
29
30A.第一件事,就是加强祂生机的救恩,我们可从启二4~5及写给七个召会的书信得见,使信徒蒙拯救脱离在以弗所召会中的形式、失去对主起初的爱、灯台照耀的性能、对基督作生命的享受,以及脱离士每拿召会中,失败导致第二次的死,并脱离别迦摩召会中,因着与世联婚而带进来的世俗、巴兰并尼哥拉党的教训。
30
31B.基督作为七倍加强赐生命的灵,加强祂生机的救恩,也使我们蒙拯救脱离在推雅推喇召会表征天主教里那淫乱、拜偶像、鬼魔教训和撒但深奥之事,并撒狄召会表征更正教里,属灵的死,以及非拉铁非召会所表征弟兄会,失去冠冕的可能,最后,拯救脱离在老底嘉召会表征堕落弟兄会中,不冷不热和没有基督的光景。
31
32应用:我们必须悔改,行起初所行的,恢复、维持、并发展我们对主起初的爱,用起初的爱爱主耶稣,在一切事上让祂居首位,不爱任何人事物过于爱主。
