纲目

1三我们在受限制、受压迫的处境中，可以经历基督作一粒麦子—24节：

21 无论何时当主的主宰权柄把我们摆在一种处境中，使我们受限制，使我们受压迫，我们就能经历主作小麦—罗八28。

32 当我们在那些限制并约束我们的环境中接触主时，我们就领悟到祂是那无限的神，却成了有限的人，并且领悟到在祂里面有能力承受任何限制—腓四13。

43 基督作我们的生命，在我们里面乃是一粒麦子，过那成为肉体者、受限制者的生活—西一27，三4。

54 我们若接触主，就会经历祂是一粒麦子；在祂里面，我们对我们的景况就能知足—腓四11～12。

65 基督作小麦，乃是我们的生命，使我们愿意受限制，愿意受死，愿意被埋葬，愿意成无有；这就是经历基督作小麦—约十二24～25。

7约十二23~24 耶稣回答说，人子得荣耀的时候到了。我实实在在地告诉你们，一粒麦子不落在地里死了，仍旧是一粒；若是死了，就结出许多子粒来。

7John 12:23-24 And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless the grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it abides alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.

8人子耶稣的得荣耀就是祂的复活，也就是祂神圣的元素，神圣的生命，从祂人性的体壳释放出来，在复活里产生许多信徒（彼前一3），如约翰十二章二十四节所说，一粒麦子落在地里，把生命的元素释放出来，又从地里长出，结出许多果实，就是许多子粒（圣经恢复本，约十二23注1）。

8For Jesus as the Son of Man to be glorified was for Him to be resurrected, that is, to have His divine element, His divine life, released from within the shell of His humanity to produce many believers in resurrection (1 Pet. 1:3), just as a grain of wheat (John 12:24) has its life element released when it falls into the ground and grows up out of the ground to bear much fruit, that is, to bring forth many grains. (John 12:23, footnote 1)

9限制总是引到钉十字架。丈夫和妻子不但彼此限制，他们也彼此把对方钉在十字架上。每一个丈夫都钉死他的妻子，没有例外。你若诚实，你会承认你已经把你的妻子钉在十字架上许多次。然而被钉死是何等的好！我们越被钉死，小麦便越在我们里面生长。吃基督作小麦的路就是受限制和被钉死。你若不愿意受限制并且被钉死，你就没有小麦。你无须谈论如何吃小麦，因为你没有小麦可吃。你必须先生长小麦，然后才能吃。为了要生长小麦，你必须受限制，并且被钉死。为着这个受限制和被钉死，阿利路亚！

9Limitation always leads to crucifixion. Husbands and wives not only limit each other; they also crucify each other. Without exception, every husband crucifies his wife. If you are honest, you will admit that you have crucified your wife many times. But how good it is to be crucified! The more we are crucified, the more the wheat grows within us. The way to eat Christ as wheat is to be limited and crucified. If you are not willing to be limited and crucified, you will not have any wheat. There will be no need for you to talk about how to eat the wheat because there will not be any wheat to eat. You must grow the wheat before you can eat it, and in order to grow wheat you must be limited and crucified. Hallelujah for this limitation and crucifixion!

10保罗说，“因为我们这活着的人，是常为耶稣被交于死。”（林后四11）一天过一天，妻子和丈夫彼此把对方交于死。虽然你们的蜜月或许很甜美，我确信它没有持续很久。……似乎蜜月时常变成了“醋月”。……在蜜月的头几天你可以说，“亲爱的，我爱你。”但是过了那几天以后，你似乎要说，“我要把你钉在十字架上，置你于死。”这种钉死不是一次而永远的，乃是继续不断的。我的妻子已经钉死我许多次。什么时候我想这次钉死要一次而永远地过去了，但几天以后我又再一次被钉。这就是经历成为肉体和钉十字架的耶稣。当我们经历耶稣作受限制的一位，以及被钉死的一位时，祂就像小麦一样在我们里面长大（李常受文集一九七七年第一册，二九三至二九四页）。

10Paul said, “We who are alive are always being delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake” (2 Cor. 4:11). Day after day the wives and the husbands deliver one another to death. Although your honeymoon may have been very sweet, I am sure that it did not last very long…It seems that the honeymoon often becomes a “vinegar-moon.”…During the first few days of your honeymoon you may say, “Dear, I love you.” But after those days you will feel like saying, “I will nail you to the cross and put you to death.” This kind of crucifixion does not take place once for all; it is continual. My wife has crucified me many times. Whenever I think that this crucifixion will be over once and for all, I am crucified again a few days later. This is the experience of the incarnated and crucified Jesus. When we experience Jesus as the limited One and as the crucified One, He grows in us as wheat. (CWWL, 1977, vol. 1, “The Kernel of the Bible,” pp. 220-221)

11新约用生命的麦子象征信徒。马太三章十二节告诉我们，主耶稣要将糠秕与麦子分开，并要把麦子收在祂的仓里：“祂……要扬净祂的禾场，把祂的麦子收在仓里，把糠秕用不灭的火烧尽了。”那些由麦子所表征的人，里面有生命；他们是神活的儿女。主耶稣要把他们浸在圣灵里（11），并要把他们提去，收在空中的仓里。我们要成为神的儿女，必须借着水浸到那灵里。我们需要从水和灵生（约三5）。首先，我们借着水受浸，然后我们在那灵里受浸。这样我们就重生成为神的儿女，成为由生命的麦子所象征的信徒；这些麦子要被收在主的仓里。那些由糠秕所表征的人，如马太十三章二十四至三十节的稗子，里面没有生命，主要把他们浸在火里，把他们扔到火湖里。三章十二节的糠秕，是指不肯悔改的犹太人；十三章的稗子，是指挂名的基督徒。这两班人永远的定命是一样的，就是在火湖里沉沦（40~42）。

11The New Testament uses the wheat of life to symbolize the believers. Matthew 3:12 tells us that the Lord Jesus will separate the wheat from the chaff and gather the wheat into His barn: “He will thoroughly cleanse His threshing floor and will gather His wheat into the barn, but the chaff He will burn up with unquenchable fire.” Those symbolized by wheat have life within; they are the living children of God. The Lord Jesus will baptize them in the Holy Spirit (v. 11) and gather them into His barn in heaven by rapture. In order to become children of God, we must be baptized through water into the Spirit. We need to be born of water and of the Spirit (John 3:5). First, we are baptized through water; then we are baptized in the Spirit. In this way we are regenerated to become children of God, the believers symbolized by the wheat of life, which will be gathered into the Lord’s barn. Those symbolized by chaff, like the tares in Matthew 13:24-30, are without life. The Lord will baptize them in fire, putting them into the lake of fire. Chaff in 3:12 refers to unrepentant Jews, whereas the tares in Matthew 13 refer to nominal Christians. The eternal destiny of both will be the same—perdition in the lake of fire (vv. 40-42).

12我们是真麦子，这是什么意思？我们若领悟我们是有罪、堕落、失丧的，我们若真相信主耶稣基督—祂是神的儿子成为肉体来作人；祂为着我们的罪死在十字架上；祂在肉身和灵里复活了；并且祂如今是赐生命的灵住在我们里面，作我们的生命和一切—我们就必然是生命的麦子（新约总论第五册，一○五至一○六、一○八页）。

12What does it mean to be real wheat? If we realize that we are sinful, fallen, and lost and if we truly believe in the Lord Jesus Christ—that He is the Son of God incarnated to be a man, that He died on the cross for our sins, that He was resurrected physically and spiritually, and that He is now the life-giving Spirit dwelling in us as our life and everything, we are certainly the wheat of life. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, pp. 1151-1153)

今日要点

14主题：经历基督作小麦，得着能力过受限制的生活

15引经：约十二23~24

161.主乃是借着死得着荣耀：

17a.当主骑着驴驹当成白马，用衣服铺在驴驹背上当成马鞍，地上铺着树枝当成红毯，众人喊着和散那，和散那，在主名里来的是当受颂赞的，当世人都以为，主要准备进城得国了，主也在约十二23说，人子得荣耀的时候到了，但24节接着说，一粒麦子死了？！

18b. 人子耶稣的得荣耀，不是祂要凯旋进城，而是借死复活，也就是祂神圣的元素，神圣的生命，从祂人性的体壳释放出来，在复活里产生许多信徒，如约十二24所说，一粒麦子落在地里，把生命的元素释放出来，又从地里长出，结出许多果实，就是许多子粒。

192.运用灵，经历基督作小麦：

20a. 今天，基督作为有小麦的地，已经在我们灵里，我们在受限制、受压迫的处境中，可以经历基督作一粒麦子，无论何时当主的主宰权柄把我们摆在一种处境中，使我们受限制和压迫时，我们不该抱怨，乃该接触主。

21b.在环境中，受限制时，我们要学习接触主，我们就领悟到祂是那无限的神，却成了有限的人，并领悟到在祂里面有能力承受任何限制，这样，祂就能作我们的生命，在我们里面过受限制的生活，使我们在景况中知足，经历基督作小麦。

22应用：在婚姻生活中建立接触主的习惯，经历基督作为受限制的一位，使祂像小麦一样在我们里面长大，而使我们不抗拒环境，甚至有力量能够经过这些环境，胜过这些环境。
