纲目
1五 我们应当完全认识最高的真理,并对此绝对——罗八3一3~4十二4~5:
1
21 最高的真理就是神在基督里成为人,为要使人在生命、性情、构成和彰显上成为神,只是无分于神格,好使救赎的神与蒙救赎的人联结、调和、合并在一起,成为一个实体——约一12~14十四20启二一210~11
2
32 神圣启示的高峰—圣经这“盒子”里的“钻石”—乃是一个启示,就是神在基督里成为人,为要使人在生命和性情上(但不在神格上)成为神——撒下七12~14上罗八3一3~4弗三17上
3
43 神成为人,是借着成为肉体;人成为神,是借着重生、圣别、更新、变化、模成和得荣——约三5~6一12~13罗六1922十二2八29~30
4
54 唯有借着神成为人,使人成为神,才能产生并建造基督的身体;这就是神所给我们神圣启示的高峰——3节,一3~4八14~16十二4~5

7提后二2 你在许多见证人面前从我所听见的,要托付那忠信、能教导别人的人。
72 Tim. 2:2 And the things which you have heard from me through many witnesses, these commit to faithful men, who will be competent to teach others also.
815 你当竭力将自己呈献神前,得蒙称许,作无愧的工人,正直地分解真理的话。
815 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, an unashamed workman, cutting straight the word of the truth.
9我们出外接触人,应当带着对真理完全的认识而去(提前二4)。要被圣经中神圣的真理浸透,我们需要读职事书刊,将这些书刊放在我们家中每个地方—在卧室里、客厅里、餐桌上并厨房里。我们该勤读职事书籍,使我们被真理构成(参徒二42)。我们若被真理充满,那么每当我们开口,这些宝贵的真理自然而然会从我们涌流出来(提后二215)。我们出外不该带着肤浅的福音,乃该带着高品的福音,以应付人的需要,就是需要三一神。……今天许多人有学问又有思想,并且一直花时间思考他们人生的意义。专讲得救是从地狱上天堂这种肤浅的福音,不会吸引他们,因为这种福音他们耳熟能详。圣徒们发现《人生的奥秘》小册子在传福音上很有效。因为这本小册子的主题,应付了今天许多有思想之人的需要(李常受文集一九八七年第一册,九页)。
9When we go out to contact people, we should go with the full knowledge of the truth (1 Tim. 2:4). In order to be saturated with the divine truths in the Bible, we need to read the ministry publications, placing these publications everywhere in our home—in the bedrooms, in the living room, on the dining table, and in the kitchen. We should diligently read the ministry books so that we may be constituted with the truth (cf. Acts 2:42). If we are filled with the truth, then whenever we open our mouth, these precious truths will spontaneously flow out of us (2 Tim. 2:2, 15). We should go out not with a superficial gospel but with a high gospel in order to meet people’s need, which is the Triune God...A good number of people today are knowledgeable and thoughtful and have spent some time considering the meaning of their human life. A superficial gospel that focuses on salvation from hell and into heaven will not attract them, because they have already heard such a gospel. The saints have found the booklet The Mystery of Human Life to be effective in preaching the gospel. This is because the subject of this booklet addresses the need of many thoughtful people today. (CWWL, 1987, vol. 1, pp. 7-8)

Today’s Reading
10有思想的人,包括青少年,会思考他们人生的意义,想要找出答案。事业有成的人渴望知道人生的意义和目标。我们若带着高品福音去接触这样的人,他们当中许多人会有兴趣。虽然今天人们也许熟悉宗教、伦理或哲学,但他们多半从未听过圣经中更深的真理。我们需要向人陈明更深的真理,就如关于生命、三一神、享受基督、称义、圣别和神的分赐这种真理。譬如,我们可以告诉人,他们是受造的器皿,为要接受神作他们的内容,使神可以活在他们里面(创一26罗九2123林后四7弗三17)。我们许多人能见证,我们向人陈明的高品真理,使他们当中许多人惊奇并被抓住。我们若使用圣经恢复本的注解,向人述说更深的真理,就能吸引他们(李常受文集一九八七年第一册,九至一○页)。
10Thoughtful people, including teenagers, consider and want to discover the significance of their human life. Those who have had a successful career desire to know the meaning and goal of their human life. If we go to such ones with the high gospel, a good number among them will be interested. Although people today may be familiar with religion, ethics, or philosophy, most of them have never heard the deeper truths in the Bible. We need to present the deeper truths to others, such as the truth concerning life, the Triune God, the enjoyment of Christ, justification, sanctification, and the dispensing of God. For instance, we may tell people that they were created as vessels in order to receive God as their content so that He may live in them (Gen. 1:26; Rom. 9:21, 23; 2 Cor. 4:7; Eph. 3:17). Many of us can testify that the high truths we presented to others astonished and captured a good number among them. If we speak the deeper truths to people, using the footnotes of the Recovery Version, we will be able to attract them. (CWWL, 1987, vol. 1, p. 8)
11我们应当操练一个一个地接触人,而不该想要向一群人传讲。我们可能在一个时候对五十人传讲,但最终我们可能在这五十人中一个也得不着。最有效的路乃是一个一个地接触人。
11We should always practice to contact people one by one. We should not try to preach to a group. We may speak to fifty persons at one time, but eventually we may gain none of these fifty. The most effective way is to contact people one by one.
12我们必须传高品的福音。我们不该受老观念的影响,以为如果我们所讲的较深或较高,人就不会明白。有思想的人都愿意听关于人生真正意义的较深真理。
12We need to preach the high gospel. We should not be influenced by the old concept that people will not understand us if we share things that are deep and high. The thoughtful people want to hear the deeper truths concerning the real meaning of human life.
13我们可以从圣经的任何一部分,向人讲说高品的福音。我们甚至可以从马太一章的开头向人传福音。一节说,“耶稣基督,大卫的子孙,亚伯拉罕子孙的家谱。”从这里我们可以说一点关于基督的事。接着我们可以告诉他们,有关大卫和亚伯拉罕的故事。最后我们可以来到主耶稣是救赎主和救主的这一点上。
13We can speak the high gospel to people from any part of the Bible. It is even possible to preach the gospel from the beginning of Matthew 1. Verse 1 says, “The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.” From this point we can say something about Christ. Then we can proceed by telling the stories about David and Abraham. We can eventually arrive at the point of the Lord Jesus being the Redeemer and the Savior.
14我们都需要研读职事文字中神圣的真理,使我们得装备以传讲高品的福音(李常受文集一九九一至一九九二年第一册,三九○至三九二页)。
14All of us need to study the divine truths in the printed ministry to equip us for the preaching of the high gospel. (CWWL, 1991-1992, vol. 1, “The World Situation and the Direction of the Lord’s Move,” pp. 307-308)
