12基督自己这义已足够叫我们被称义而得救;这乃是单数的义。然而,启示录十九章八节使用复数的“义”,证明这节经文所提到的,不是指基督作我们的义,使我们得称义;乃是指义的行为,亦即日常的行事为人或基督徒的生活,也就是作我们生命的基督,通过我们所作出的。这内里生命所作出的,乃是我们所穿白色的细麻衣。我们要参加盛宴,尤其是婚筵,就必须穿着合宜。同样的,我们需要合宜的服装,好参加羔羊的婚筵。(新约总论第十四册,二五一页。)
12The righteousness that is Christ Himself is sufficient for us to be justified and saved; this righteousness is singular in number. The use of righteousnesses in Revelation 19:8 is in the plural, however, and proves that what is mentioned in this verse is not Christ as our righteousness for us to be justified. Rather, it is righteous deeds, the daily walk, the Christian living, which Christ as our life works out through us. This outworking of the inner life is the white linen with which we are clothed. In order to attend a feast, especially a wedding feast, we must dress in a proper way. In the same way, we need the proper clothing in order to attend the wedding feast of the Lamb. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, pp. 4325-4326)
