8徒二六18 ……叫他们的眼睛得开,从黑暗转入光中,从撒但权下转向神,又因信入我,得蒙赦罪,并在一切圣别的人中得着基业。
8Acts 26:18 To open their eyes, to turn them from darkness to light and from the authority of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance…
9林后四4 在他们里面,这世代的神弄瞎了他们这不信者的心思,叫基督荣耀之福音的光照,不照亮他们;基督本是神的像。
92 Cor. 4:4 In whom the god of this age has blinded the thoughts of the unbelievers that the illumination of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, might not shine on them.
10以弗所二章指明,诸天界里有好几层。基督是在最高的一层,就是三层天上,作我们的一切,就是我们的美地。但诸天界里还有较低的一层,就是空中,在那里撒但是空中掌权者的首领,阻挠地上的人接触神并接受基督(2)。这就是那些阻挠以色列人进入美地的迦南人所预表的(约书亚记生命读经,二○页)。
10Ephesians 2 indicates that in the heavenlies there are different layers. Christ is in the highest layer, the third heaven, to be our everything as our good land. But there is a lower layer of the heavenlies—the air, where Satan as the ruler of the authority of the air is frustrating the people on earth from contacting God and from receiving Christ (v. 2). This is typified by the Canaanites, who were frustrating Israel from entering into the good land. (Life-study of Joshua, p. 14)

11我们……应该记得,在诸天界里有邪恶的势力,我们必须与仇敌争战。虽然我们是在享受包罗万有之基督的一分,但是仇敌和他在诸天界里的邪恶势力仍然霸占那地。……当我们这样享受基督的时候,我们在灵中就能体会到诸天界里实在有邪恶的势力。这些邪恶的势力仍然将基督的包罗万有向神的儿女们蒙蔽起来。……直到今天,那些邪恶的势力还是一直蒙蔽着基督的包罗万有;……在这里有一场非常真实的属灵争战,是我们需要参与的。借着对包罗万有的基督有所享受,我们就有负担去打这场仗,我们就有负担为着这个争战。就是为这缘故,我们被编组成军。争战就在我们前面(李常受文集一九六一至一九六二年第四册,四五一页)。
11We must…remember that there are evil powers in the heavenlies. We must fight the battle with the enemy. We are enjoying a portion of the all-inclusive Christ, yet the enemy and his evil forces in the heavenlies are still usurping and occupying the land…As soon as we enjoy Christ in such a way, we realize in our spirit the reality of the evil forces in the heavenlies. These evil forces are veiling the all-inclusiveness of Christ from the Lord’s children…To this very day the evil forces are still veiling the all-inclusiveness of Christ…There is an exceedingly real spiritual warfare in which we must engage. By enjoying something of the all-inclusive Christ, we will be burdened for this fighting; we will be burdened for this battle. That is why we have been formed as an army. The conflict is before us. (CWWL, 1961-1962, vol. 4, “The All-inclusive Christ,” p. 336)
12以色列人进入美地之后,必须击败迦南人,就是霸占那地的仇敌。这些仇敌预表空中执政的和掌权的,企图拦阻我们享受包罗万有的基督。在我们里面有己和肉体的搅扰,在我们上面,在空中,有黑暗的邪恶权势。当我们埋葬了己并割去肉体时,空中的黑暗权势就要被暴露。己和肉体帮助邪恶的权势。……一旦我们对付己和肉体,黑暗的权势就要出来与我们交战。然后,我们必须学习如何打属灵的仗。属灵的争战乃是在美地上,有基督丰富的出产作支援。
12After the children of Israel entered into the good land, they had to defeat the Canaanites, the enemies that were occupying the land. These enemies typify the principalities and powers in the air that seek to keep us from enjoying the all-inclusive Christ. Within us we are troubled by the self and the flesh, and above us, in the air, there are the evil powers of darkness. When we bury the self and circumcise the flesh, the powers of darkness in the air will be exposed. The self and the flesh help the evil powers…As soon as we deal with the self and the flesh, the powers of darkness will come forth to war against us. Then we must learn how to fight the spiritual warfare. The spiritual warfare is fought in the good land with the support of the rich produce of Christ.
13今天我们的美地乃是三一神,经过过程成了包罗万有的灵。……借着成为肉体、人性生活、钉十字架与复活,基督这位三一神的具体化身,经过了过程,成为赐生命的灵,住在祂所拣选的人里面。因此,今天三一神乃是作为赐生命的灵临及我们。
13The good land for us today is the Triune God processed to become the all-inclusive Spirit…Through incarnation, human living, crucifixion, and resurrection, Christ, the embodiment of the Triune God, has been processed to become the life-giving Spirit to indwell His chosen people. Thus, the Triune God reaches us today as the life-giving Spirit.
14这位奇妙的灵现今在我们的灵里(罗八16)。……“与主联合的,便是与主成为一灵。”〔林前六17〕所以,新约吩咐我们要在灵里行事为人(加五1625罗八4)。……你若不在基督里行事为人,即使你很有道德,也是背叛。
14This wonderful Spirit is now in our spirit (Rom. 8:16)…He who is joined to the Lord is one spirit [1 Cor. 6:17]. Therefore, in the New Testament we are commanded to walk in spirit (Gal. 5:16, 25; Rom. 8:4)…If you do not walk in Christ, you are rebellious, even though you may be very virtuous.
15我们都曾向主承认我们的罪、失败和缺点。但你曾求主赦免你没有凭基督而活么?很少基督徒这样祷告:“主,赦免我今天没有接受你作我的生命。我的行为很好,但我没有凭你而活,没有接受你作我的人位。主,赦免我在背叛你的光景里。你要从我活出来,但我反而照着你以外的事物而活。我凭着我的意见而活,却不凭你的启示而活。根据这启示,我该在你里面行事为人。但是在这一整天内,主,我完全没有在你里面行事为人。”我能作见证,尤其在最近,我几乎天天向主这样认罪(出埃及记生命读经,一六九至一七○页)。
15We all have confessed our sins, failures, and shortcomings to the Lord. But have you ever asked the Lord to forgive you for not living by Christ? Not many Christians have prayed in this way: “Lord, forgive me for not taking You as my life today. My behavior was very good, but I did not live by You or take You as my person. Lord, forgive me for being in rebellion against You. You wanted to be lived out of me, but instead I lived according to something other than Yourself. I lived by my opinion, not by Your revelation. According to this revelation, I should walk in You. But during the whole day, Lord, I didn’t walk in You at all.” I can testify that, especially recently, I have made this kind of confession to the Lord almost every day. (Life-study of Exodus, pp. 142-143)

今日要点
17主题:认识迦南消极一面的豫表
17
18引经:徒二六18林后四4
18
191.迦南表征撒但黑暗国度空中、天上的部分:
19
20a.我们要领会以色列人进迦南和在迦南争战的意义,就需要认识,按豫表迦南有积极与消极两面的意义,在消极一面,迦南表征撒但黑暗国度空中、天上的部分,就是满了撒但势力的诸天界,因为当以色列人要进入美地,据有美地时,他们必须击败霸占那地的仇敌,就是迦南人。
20
21B.这些仇敌豫表空中执政的和掌权的,企图拦阻我们享受包罗万有的基督,这些使者是撒但的从属,撒但有他的国,就是黑暗的权势,就如当时迦南人如何拦阻以色列人据有美地,今天也是,难怪林后四4保罗就说,这世代的神弄瞎了人的心思,直到今天,邪恶的权势仍然将基督的包罗万有向神的子民遮蔽起来。
21
222.除去遮蔽、心眼得开,除去一切黑暗的权势:
22
23A.今天,我们需要看见这图画,跟随保罗所看见的异象,借着享受基督的包罗万有,我们在灵中就会体会在诸天界里有这样邪恶的势力,而起来有分美地的争战,经历徒二六18,使人的眼睛得开,从黑暗转入光中,从撒但的权下转向神,使人信入主,得蒙赦罪,并在一切圣别的人中得着基业。
23
24B.今天美地乃是三一神经过过程成了包罗万有的灵,借着成为肉体,人性生活,钉死十架,复活,基督这位三一神的具体化身,成了赐生命的灵,住在相信祂的人里面,因此,这奇妙的灵—美地—就在我们灵里,我们需要有分争战,就需要与主联合,与主成为一灵,在灵里行事为人。
24
25应用:我们要向主祷告,承认我们的罪、失败和缺点,说,主,赦免我没有接受你作生命,我的行为很好,但我没有凭你而活,没有接受你作我的人位,求你指教我如何在你里面行事为人。
