2第一篇 享受包罗万有的基督是召会一切难处的唯一解答
2
3二 为着建造召会作基督生机的身体,在我们的所是和所作上,爱乃是极超越的路——林前十二31下十三813,参十四134下
3
41 “知识是叫人自高自大,唯有爱建造人〞;我们可能听了职事的信息,只得了一些知识,就自高自大——八1下,参林后三6
4
52 当生命之灵的律,就是爱的律(罗八2加六2~3),在我们里面得以发动,我们在主里的劳苦就是爱心的劳苦(林前十五58帖前一3);在其中我们扶助并扶持软弱的人(徒二十35帖前五14);“软弱的人”指那些在灵、魂、体方面软弱,或是在信心上软弱的人。
5
63 我们所爱的基督乃是爱召会的基督(弗五25);当我们爱祂,我们就会像祂那样爱召会;召会生活乃是弟兄相爱的生活(约壹四7~8约贰5~6约十五1217启三7弗五2,参犹12上),并且身体在爱里把自己建造起来(弗四16)。
6
74 神赐给我们的灵,就是蒙了重生的灵,乃是爱的灵;我们需要有一个火热的爱的灵,以征服今日召会的堕落——提后一7罗十二10~11
7
85 我们为着基督身体的一、建造和实际,越进入一同相调的经历与享受,彼此相爱对我们就越真实——林前十二14~27罗十六1~16西四16约十二24利二4~5

9林前十三4 “爱是恒久忍耐,又有恩慈;爱是不嫉妒;爱是不自夸,不张狂。”
91 Cor. 13:4 Love suffers long. Love is kind; it is not jealous. Love does not brag and is not puffed up.
10提后一7 “因为神赐给我们的,不是胆怯的灵,乃是能力、爱、并清明自守的灵。”
102 Tim. 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of cowardice, but of power and of love and of sobermindedness.
11林前十二章的末了启示,爱是极超越的路。(31下。)一个人如何作长老?…一个人如何作同工?…我们如何牧养人?爱是极超越的路。…爱是我们申言并教导人极超越的路。为着我们的所是和所作,爱乃是极超越的路。(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第五册,一七一至一七二页。)
11The end of 1 Corinthians 12 reveals that love is the most excellent way (v. 31b). How can one be an elder?…How can one be a co-worker?…How do we shepherd people? Love is the most excellent way. Love is the most excellent way for us to prophesy and to teach others. Love is the most excellent way for us to be anything or do anything. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 5, “The Vital Groups,” p. 126)

12神赐给我们的灵,乃是我们那由圣灵重生并内住之人的灵。这灵乃是爱的灵,因此也是能力并清明自守的灵。(提后一7。)我们可能自以为很有能力,也清明自守,但我们的灵却不是爱的灵。我们与人谈话的方式可能满了能力,并且也清明自守,但是我们的谈话却使人受威吓。
12The spirit that God has given us is our human spirit regenerated and indwelt by the Holy Spirit. This spirit is a spirit of love; hence, it is of power and of sobermindedness (2 Tim. 1:7). We may think that we are very powerful and sober, but our spirit is not of love. We talk to people in a way that is full of power and sobermindedness, but our talk threatens them.
13保罗说,我们必须使我们的恩赐如火挑旺起来。(6。)神所赐给我们主要的恩赐,乃是我们重生的灵,连同祂的灵、祂的生命和祂的性情。我们必须把这恩赐如火挑旺起来。这意思是说,我们必须激动我们的灵,使我们的灵火热起来。罗马十二章十一节说,我们应当灵里火热。…我们必须有一个火热的爱的灵,而不是一个焚烧的权柄的灵,那会造成损害。
13Paul says that we need to fan our gift into flame (v. 6). The main gift that God has given us is our regenerated human spirit with His Spirit, His life, and His nature. We must fan this gift into flame. This means that we have to stir up our spirit so that our spirit will be burning. Romans 12:11 says that we should be burning in spirit…We must have a burning spirit of love, not a burning spirit of authority, which damages.
14根据我…的观察,大多数同工的灵都是“能力”的灵,而不是爱的灵。我们需要爱的灵,好征服今日召会的堕落。我们不该说什么或作什么去威吓人;反之,我们说话或行事,都该一直凭着已经如火挑旺起来的爱的灵。这是主的恢复所需要的。
14According to my observation…, most of the co-workers have a human spirit of “power” but not of love. We need a spirit of love to conquer the degradation of today’s church. We should not say or do anything to threaten people. Instead, we should always say and do things with a spirit of love, which has been fanned into flame. This is what the recovery needs.
15爱是有效能的。我们应当爱每一个人,甚至爱我们的仇敌。如果同工和长老不爱那些不好的人,最终长老和同工就会无事可作。我们必须借着一无分别的爱恶人也爱好人而得以完全,像我们的父是完全的一样。(太五48。)我们必须像我们的父一样完全,因为我们是祂的众子,是祂的种类。这是非常重要的。我们如何作长老和同工?乃是在每一方面都凭着爱。我们必须爱任何一种人。主耶稣说,祂来是作医生,不是为着强健的人,乃是为着有病的人。主说,“强健的人用不着医生,有病的人才用得着。”(九12。)
15Love prevails. We should love everybody, even our enemies. If the coworkers and elders do not love the bad ones, eventually, they will have nothing to do. We must be perfect as our Father is perfect (Matt. 5:48) by loving the evil ones and the good ones without any discrimination. We must be perfect as our Father because we are His sons, His species. This is most crucial. How can we be a co-worker and an elder? It is by love in every way. We must love any kind of person. The Lord Jesus said that He came to be a Physician, not for the healthy ones but for the sick ones. The Lord said, “Those who are strong have no need of a physician, but those who are ill” (9:12).
16召会既不是逮捕人的警察局,也不是审判人的法庭,乃是养育信徒的家。作父母的都知道,他们的孩子越坏,就越需要父母的养育。…召会是爱的家,为着养育儿女。召会也是医院,为着医治并恢复有病的人。最后,召会也是学校,为着教导并造就尚未学习的人,就是那些没有多少认识的人。召会既是家、医院和学校,同工和长老就应当与主是一,在爱里养育、医治、恢复并教导人。
16The church is not a police station to arrest people or a law court to judge people but a home to raise up the believers. Parents know that the worse their children are, the more they need their raising up…The church is a loving home to raise up the children. The church is also a hospital to heal and to recover the sick ones. Finally, the church is a school to teach and edify the unlearned ones who do not have much understanding. Because the church is a home, a hospital, and a school, the co-workers and elders should be one with the Lord to raise up, to heal, to recover, and to teach others in love.
17然而,有些召会是逮捕罪人的警察局,也是审判这些人的法院。保罗的态度不是这样。他说,“有谁软弱,我不软弱?”(林后十一29上。)当经学家和法利赛人带着一个行淫的妇人到主那里时,祂对他们说,“你们中间谁是没有罪的,谁就先拿石头打她。”(约八7。)当众人都离开后,主问那犯罪的妇人,说,“妇人,那些人在哪里?没有人定你的罪么?”她说,“主啊,没有。”然后耶稣说,“我也不定你的罪。”(10~11。)谁是没有罪的?谁是完全的?…我们不该以为别人是软弱的,我们不是软弱的。这不是爱。爱遮盖人并建造人,所以为着建造基督的身体,在我们的所是和所作上,爱乃是极超越的路。(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第五册,一六九至一七○、一七二至一七三页。)
17Some of the churches, however, are police stations to arrest the sinful ones and law courts to judge them. Paul’s attitude was different. He said, “Who is weak, and I am not weak?” (2 Cor. 11:29a). When the scribes and Pharisees brought an adulterous woman to the Lord, He said to them, “He who is without sin among you, let him be the first to throw a stone at her” (John 8:7). After all of them left, the Lord asked the sinful woman, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” She said, “No one, Lord.” Then Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you” (vv. 10-11). Who is without sin? Who is perfect?…We should not consider that others are weak but we are not. That is not love. Love covers and builds up, so love is the most excellent way for us to be anything and to do anything for the building up of the Body of Christ. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 5, “The Vital Groups,” pp. 124-127)

今日要点
19主题:被爱召会的基督充满,使身体在爱里得建造
19
20
211.爱是建造极超越的路:
21
22A.因着哥林多召会的难处,召会失去了建造的光景,所以保罗在林前八1指出,知识叫人自高自大,惟有爱建造人,所以我们不仅需要爱祂,也需要彼此相爱,使基督生机的身体得着建造。
22
23B.林前十二章是论及身体的一章,末节启示,爱是极超越的路,林前十三4也开始说到所谓「爱的真谛」,爱是恒久忍耐,又有恩慈…等等,为着建造召会作基督身体,在我们所是和所作上,爱乃是极超越的路。
23
242.被爱召会的基督充满,使身体在爱里得建造:
24
25A.我们所爱的基督乃是爱召会的基督,当我们爱祂,我们就会像祂那样爱召会,我们让生命之灵的律,就是爱的律在我们里面发动,我们就会有爱心的劳苦,愿意扶持软弱的人,实行弟兄相爱。
25
26B. 在提后一7,神赐给我们的灵,乃是有圣灵重生并内住之人的灵,这灵乃是爱的灵,因此也是能力并清明自守的灵,当我们的灵火热,就能征服今日召会的堕落,为着基督身体的一、建造和实际,过彼此相爱的生活,以进入相调的经历与享受中。
26
27应用:召会不是逮捕人的警察局,也不是审判人的法庭,乃是爱的家,为此我们该被基督的爱充满,有父爱和赦免的心,以及子基督牧养和寻找的灵,牧养、顾惜身旁的弟兄姊妹,使人得着医治和恢复。
