11启十九7 “我们要喜乐欢腾，将荣耀归与祂；因为羔羊婚娶的时候到了，新妇也自己预备好了。”

11Rev. 19:7 Let us rejoice and exult, and let us give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.

12弗二21～22 “在祂里面，全房联结一起，长成在主里的圣殿；你们也在祂里面同被建造，成为神在灵里的居所。”

12Eph. 2:21-22 In whom all the building, being fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord; in whom you also are being built together into a dwelling place of God in spirit.

13〔启示录十九章七节的〕“新妇”，直译，祂的妻子，指召会，（弗五24～25，31～32，）就是基督的新妇。（约三29。）然而，按照启示录十九章八至九节，这里的妻子（基督的新妇）只包含千年国中得胜的信徒；而二十一章二节的新妇，乃是由所有得救的圣徒所组成，从千年国以后直到永远。十九章中羔羊的妻子是从亚伯直到主回来所有得胜圣徒的集大成。所有旧约和新约得胜者的集大成，就是七节的妻子，他们要为基督的婚娶预备好；新妇的预备是在于得胜者生命的成熟。再者，得胜者不是分开的个人，乃是团体的新妇。为着这一面，就需要建造。他们不仅在生命上成熟，更是同被建造，成为一个新妇。基督不是要娶一位个别的信徒；反之，祂是要娶由祂得胜信徒所组成的团体新妇。当我们被三一神完全浸透，三一神从我们身上流露出来，我们就被建造完成，联络得合式，成为荣耀的召会，就是主耶稣心爱的新妇。（新约总论第十四册，二四四至二四五页。）

13[In Revelation 19:7] His wife refers to the church (Eph. 5:24-25, 31-32), the bride of Christ (John 3:29). However, according to Revelation 19:8-9, the wife, the bride of Christ, consists only of the overcoming believers during the millennium, whereas the bride in 21:2 is composed of all the saved saints after the millennium for eternity. The wife of the Lamb in Revelation 19 is the aggregate of all the overcoming saints from Abel until the Lord’s return. The aggregate of all the Old Testament and New Testament overcomers is the wife in Revelation 19:7 who will be ready for Christ’s wedding. The readiness of the bride depends on the maturity in life of the overcomers. Furthermore, the overcomers are not separate individuals but a corporate bride. For this aspect, building is needed. The overcomers are not only mature in life but also built together as one bride. Christ will not marry each believer individually; instead, He will marry His corporate bride composed of His overcoming believers. When we have been fully saturated with the Triune God so that He flows out of us, we will be completely built and fitted together to become the glorious church, the beloved bride of the Lord Jesus. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, pp. 4320-4321)

14我们也需要看见唯有召会作为金灯台才能作基督的新妇。（启一20。）这指明我们应当活出基督的生命。虽然这与我们人的观念相抵触，但我们不该专注于那些出于我们的好或坏。反之，我们要顾到生命树，三一神，以及基督那包罗万有的灵。不论在家里对家人，或在召会里对弟兄姊妹，我们都需要活出基督。我们若凭基督活着，所活出来的才是那是灵的神，由发光照耀的纯金所预表；这样，我们才能作基督的新妇，满足祂的心意。…我们必须作基督的新妇。我们切慕作新妇的时候，基督就得着满足；不但基督得满足，我们自己也要欢喜快乐。启示录十九章七节说，“我们要喜乐欢腾。”原则上，新妇总是最高兴、最快乐的人。

14We also need to see that only the church as the golden lampstand can be the bride of Christ (Rev. 1:20). This indicates that we need to live out the life of Christ. Although this goes against our human concept, we should not focus on caring for the goodness or wickedness that comes out of us. Instead, we need to care for the tree of life, the Triune God, and Christ as the all-inclusive Spirit. Whether we are at home with our family or in the church meetings with the brothers and sisters, we all need to live out Christ. If we live by Christ, what we live out is God, who is Spirit, signified by the pure gold that shines forth the light; then we will become the bride of Christ who satisfies His desire. We must be the bride for Christ. When we are eager to be the bride, Christ will receive His satisfaction. Not only will Christ be satisfied, but we also will be satisfied. Revelation 19:7 says, “Let us rejoice and exult.” In principle, a bride is the most pleasant and happy person.

15婚礼要带进主的掌权，就是国度，因为所有被请赴婚礼的宾客既是团体的新妇，又是与新郎一同作王的人。新郎要得着全地作祂的国度，当然就需要许多附属的王与祂一同作王。所有与祂一同作王的人就是祂团体的新妇。

15The wedding will bring in the reign of the Lord, the kingdom, because all the guests invited to the wedding will be both the corporate bride and the cokings of the Bridegroom. The Bridegroom, who will take the whole earth as His kingdom, certainly needs many sub-kings to be His co-kings. All His co-kings will be His corporate bride.

16在空中所举行的婚礼，会持续很短的时间。在婚礼之后，就是婚筵。婚筵通常总是比婚礼时间更长。马太二十二章指明，婚筵就是千年国。对得胜者来说，千年国的一千年将是婚筵。对主来说，千年如一日。（彼后三8。）每一位被请赴婚筵的人，也要有分于一千年的作王掌权；我们的王是新郎，我们这些与祂一同作王的人乃是祂的新妇；那一千年将是我们与我们的新郎基督的婚筵与蜜月。…许多基督徒将得不着奖赏，不得在要来的国度里与基督一同掌权。虽然我们会得救，但若要得着国度为奖赏，我们就必须是得胜者。对得胜者来说，在基督的国度里与祂一同掌权，就是婚筵。（新约总论第十四册，二四五至二四七页。）

16The wedding, which will take place in the air, will last a short time. After the wedding, there will be the wedding feast. A wedding feast is always much longer than the wedding. Matthew 22 indicates that the wedding feast will be the millennial kingdom. To the overcomers, the thousand years of the millennial kingdom will be a wedding feast. To the Lord, a thousand years are like one day (2 Pet. 3:8). Everyone invited to the wedding feast will also participate in the thousand-year reign as kings. Our King will be the Bridegroom; we, His cokings, will be His bride; and the thousand years will be our wedding feast and honeymoon with our Bridegroom, Christ. Many Christians will not receive the reward of reigning with Christ in the coming kingdom. Although we may be saved, we must become an overcomer in order to receive the kingdom as our reward. For the overcomers, reigning with Christ in His kingdom will be the wedding feast. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, pp. 4321-4322)

今日要点

18主题：那摆在我们前面的喜乐，乃是一个人位

19引经：启十九7，弗二21~22

201.何谓那摆在我们前面的：

21A.根据上下文，摆在我们前面的赛程，后面接着望断以及于耶稣，也就是说，那摆在我们前面的赛程，就是摆在我们前面的喜乐，就是新郎主耶稣，祂要来迎娶那将自己预备好了的新妇，第二周我们曾说过，圣经记载关于喜乐欢腾，总是联于我们被提迎接主来，启十九就是如此，7节说到，『我们要喜乐欢腾，将荣耀归与祂，因为羔羊婚娶的时候到了，新妇也自己预备好了。』

22B.首先，7节的『新妇』，直译，妻子，根据上下文，这里说到婚娶，因此是新妇，新娘子，而这里的羔羊是指基督，因此新妇指召会，但是，这里只包含了千年国当中得胜的信徒，就是从亚伯直到主回来所有得胜圣徒的集大成，乃是直到启示录二十一章的新妇，才是由所有信徒所组成，从千年国以后直到永远。

232.新妇预备，为着那摆在我们前面的喜乐：

24A.接着，7节说到新妇的『预备』，这指明新妇得以预备好，在于得胜者生命的成熟，当每一个个别的信徒，被三一神完全浸透，就在基督的生命里长大成熟，并且同被建造，联络得合式，建造成为荣耀的召会，建造成为一个新妇，使神得着三一神团体的彰显。

25B.最后，7节说到『婚娶』，婚礼是最喜乐的，新妇必定是喜乐欢腾，此外，婚礼也要带进主的掌权，就是国度因为所有被请赴婚礼的宾客，既是团体的新妇，又是与新郎一同作王的人，新郎要得着全地作祂的国度，这个在空中举行的婚礼，会持续很短的时间，在婚礼之后，就是婚筵，婚筵就是千年国，对主来说，千年如一日，每一个被请赴婚筵的人，都要有分与主一同作王掌权一千年。

26应用：主不能迎娶一个生命不够成熟的小女孩，为此，我们不该专注于出于我们的好与外，反之，我们要顾到生命过于一切，而使我们能够生命长大并成熟，预备新妇，为着这个喜乐和欢腾，我们要操练在每一次读主话时，到带到主面前，到主那里得生命，并接受光照、对付和暴露，使我们得着生命的医治。
