8第五,福音是照明,光照。福音乃是基督荣耀的福音,照明、照射、照耀在人心里。当这福音临及我们时,它乃是借着光照耀我们,这照耀将基督带到我们里面;基督本是经过过程之三一神的像。结果,基督这活的人位就照进我们里面。许多信徒能见证,当他们听见基督这福音时,一种基督的印象就进入他们里面。尽管他们试图拒绝这种基督的印象,或试图将这印象从他们里面涂抹掉,但他们无法作到。基督的印象一旦照到我们里面,就永远留在我们里面。这照明是福音,这福音是荣耀,这荣耀是基督,基督是神的像,而基督本是神。因此,所照进我们里面的,乃是活的人位,就是具体化在基督里的三一神;基督是神的像,神的彰显。
8Fifth, the gospel is the illumination, the enlightenment. The gospel is the gospel of the glory of Christ, which illuminates, radiates, and shines in the heart of man. When the gospel came to us, it came to us by shining, and this shining brought into us Christ, who is the image of the processed Triune God. As a result, Christ, the living person, was illuminated into our being. Many believers can testify that when they heard Christ as the gospel, a certain impression of Christ entered into them. Although they may try to reject this impression of Christ or erase it from their being, they cannot do it. Once the impression of Christ is illuminated into us, it remains within us forever. This illumination is the gospel, this gospel is the glory, this glory is Christ, Christ is the image of God, and as such, Christ is God. Therefore, what has been illuminated into our being is a living person, the Triune God embodied in Christ, who is the image, the expression, of God.
