6罗十二1 所以弟兄们,我借着神的怜恤劝你们,将身体献上,当作圣别并讨神喜悦的活祭,这是你们合理的事奉。
6Rom. 12:1 I exhort you therefore, brothers, through the compassions of God to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, well pleasing to God, which is your reasonable service.
7弗五2 也要在爱里行事为人,正如基督爱我们,为我们舍了自己,作供物和祭物献与神,成为馨香之气。
7Eph. 5:2 And walk in love, even as Christ also loved us and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling savor.
8最快乐的人乃是最不自私的人。最自私的人都是最痛苦的人。……我们没有力量牺牲,因为我们的生命是天然的生命、自私的生命。只有基督的生命才是牺牲的生命。你若是接触这位基督,经历祂牺牲的生命,祂就要加给你力量,刚强你,使你为神为人而牺牲。你就要成为最快乐的人;你要被喜乐灌醉了。这就是经历基督作葡萄树。因着这经历,对别人你就变成了一棵葡萄树,所有和你接触的人都要因你觉得快乐,你也要将喜乐带给神。
8The most happy person is the most unselfish one. The most selfish people are always the most miserable…We have no energy to sacrifice, for our life is a natural life, a selfish life. Only the life of Christ is a life of sacrifice. If you contact this Christ and experience His sacrificing life, He will energize you; He will strengthen you to sacrifice for God and for others. Then you will be the most happy person; you will be drunk with happiness. This is the experience of Christ as the vine tree. By this experience you will become a vine to others. All of those who contact you will be happy with you, and you will bring cheer to God.
9〔葡萄要变成酒,〕必须经过压。为要使神和人快乐,你必须经过压。你喜乐地学习基督是大麦,是在你里面复活的基督,祂能应付每个处境。……不要太快说阿利路亚,因为紧接着大麦而来的就是葡萄树。葡萄必须经过压,才能将喜乐带给神和人。……你必须〔经过压而〕被破碎,才能在神的家中产出东西来,使人快乐。……〔小麦、大麦和葡萄树〕都是路,叫你能在各方面并在日常生活中应用基督(李常受文集一九六一至一九六二年第四册,三一六至三一七页)。
9[To make grapes into wine], they must be pressed. To make God and others happy, you must be pressed. You rejoice to learn that Christ is the barley, the resurrected Christ within you, and that He is enough to meet every situation…Do not say Hallelujah too easily, for immediately following the barley is the vine. The grapes must be pressed to bring cheer to God and man…You must be [pressed] broken in order to produce something in the house of the Lord to make others happy…[The wheat, barley, and vine are] the ways…you may realize Christ in different aspects and apply Christ in your daily living. (CWWL, 1961-1962, vol. 4, “The Allinclusive Christ,” p. 240)

Today’s Reading
10基督的信徒作为葡萄树上的许多枝子,乃是神的基督的肢体,在神圣的分赐里形成三一神的生机体。主耶稣在约翰十五章五节宣告说,“我是葡萄树,你们是枝子。”这样的陈述含示基督同祂的信徒是一棵树。基督和信徒,就是葡萄树同枝子,在神圣的分赐里形成三一神的生机体。所以,十五章的葡萄树,是宇宙的葡萄树,包含基督和祂作枝子的信徒。在这葡萄树,这生机体里,三一神活祂自己,彰显祂自己,并分赐祂自己到极点。
10As the many branches of the vine, the believers of Christ are members of the Christ of God to form the organism of the Triune God in the divine dispensing. In John 15:5 the Lord Jesus declared, “I am the vine; you are the branches.” Such a statement implies that Christ and His believers are one tree. Christ and the believers, the vine with the branches, form the organism of the Triune God in the divine dispensing. The vine in John 15, therefore, is a universal vine comprising Christ and His believers as the branches. In this vine, this organism, the Triune God lives, expresses Himself, and dispenses Himself to the uttermost.
11当我们相信主耶稣的时候,祂就分枝到我们里面。……基督的分枝使我们成为基督这葡萄树的枝子。现今我们这些枝子,被基督这生命所充满;因为作葡萄树上的枝子,意思就是基督成了我们的生命。不要说,我们不觉得被基督充满。主说,“我是葡萄树,你们是枝子。”我们就必须大声说,阿们。只要不住地说,“阿利路亚,我是枝子”,我们这葡萄树的枝子就会被基督充满。
11When we believed in the Lord Jesus, He branched out into us…Christ’s branching out has made us branches of Christ as the vine. Now as branches we are filled with Christ as life, for to be a branch in the vine means that Christ has become our life. We should not say that we do not feel that we are filled with Christ. When the Lord says, “I am the vine; you are the branches,” we have to say a strong Amen. Just keep saying, “Hallelujah, I am a branch!” We as branches of the vine will be filled with Christ.
12除了葡萄树,没有植物能充分说明信徒与基督之间活的关系。葡萄树与一般的树不同,它实际上没有干。你若砍去葡萄树的枝子,实际上就一无所剩,只留下根。所以,主耶稣说,“我是葡萄树,你们是枝子”,是非常有意义的。葡萄树对枝子乃是一切。在葡萄树里的一切,也在枝子里。这指明基督这葡萄树,对我们这些枝子是很大的享受。我们从葡萄树,并借葡萄树,接受过枝子生活所需要的一切。
12No plant other than the vine can illustrate adequately the living relationship between the believers and Christ. A vine differs from a tree in that it has virtually no trunk. If you cut off the branches of a vine, there is practically nothing left, only the root. It is very significant, therefore, that the Lord Jesus says, “I am the vine; you are the branches.” The vine is everything to the branches. Whatever is in the vine is also in the branches. This indicates that as the vine Christ is a great enjoyment for us, the branches. From the vine and through the vine, we receive everything we need to live as branches.
13我们信徒是葡萄树的枝子,不适合作别的,只适合彰显葡萄树。凡葡萄树的所是和所有,都借着枝子得着彰显。就个别说,枝子是蒙重生的人;就团体说,枝子是召会,基督的身体。枝子,就是在子基督里的信徒,要借着结果子,使子同着父得着彰显(新约总论第九册,二○六至二○八页)。
13As believers, we are branches of the vine and are good for nothing except to express the vine. All that the vine is and has is expressed through the branches. Individually, the branches are the regenerated ones. Corporately, they are the church, the Body of Christ. The branches, the believers in Christ the Son, are for the expression of the Son with the Father through fruitbearing. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, pp. 2930-2931)

今日要点
15主题:接触基督作葡萄树,经历牺牲的生命,过牺牲的生活,产生新酒使神与人喜乐
15
16引经:罗十二1弗五2
16
171.住在基督这葡萄树里面,好经历牺牲的生命:
17
18A.最快乐的人乃是最不自私,能牺牲奉献的人,最自私的人都是最痛苦的人,然而我们的生命是天然、自私的生命,只有基督的生命才是牺牲的生命,葡萄要变成酒,必须经过压,为要使神和人快乐,基督经过压榨,我们喜乐的学习基督是大麦,是在里面复活的基督,然而紧接而来的却是葡萄树,为着牺牲。
18
19B.基督的信徒作为葡萄树上的许多枝子,乃是基督的肢体,在神圣的分赐里形成三一神的生机体,主说,我是葡萄树,你们是枝子,这陈述含示基督同祂的信徒是一棵树,当我们相信主耶稣,祂就分枝到我们里面,今天我们这些枝子,要被基督这生命所充满,作为葡萄树上的枝子,意思就是基督成了我们的生命。
19
202.过牺牲的生活,产生新酒使神与人喜乐:
20
21A.在罗十二1,当信徒经历基督作葡萄树这牺牲的生命,就能为着基督身体的缘故,将身体献上,当作活祭,这不会冤望,而是合理的事奉,也就像弗五2,信徒能在爱里行事为人,正如基督爱召会,为我们舍了自己的性命,作供物和祭物献与神,这样的献没有悲情,只有馨香之气。
21
22b.若我们在处境中接触主,我们就能经历,祂作为出产葡萄酒的葡萄树,能经历基督作为使神和人喜乐的新酒,使你自己有多量的酒可喝,甚至喝醉,而能因基督而癫狂,而在那个处境中过牺牲的生活,使神和人喜乐,借着这样的经历,子基督这真葡萄树,同众信徒为其枝子,就在神圣的分赐之下,因神的丰富而长大,彰显神圣的生命。
22
23应用:每天起床第一件事不是看手机讯息,而是呼求主名,并在生活中借着呼求不住祷告,养成每天接触基督的习惯,在环境中,就能因接触祂而住在祂这葡萄树里面,经历牺牲的生命。
