14这位在已过的永远里没有人性的神，如何能在将来的永远里有人性作祂的居所？……在永远的这两段之间有时间的桥梁。在已过的永远里，神计划并且定意，但祂并没有作什么。在将来的永远里，神也不会作什么。……祂只要享受祂所完成的工作。在已过的永远里，祂计划；在将来的永远里，祂要享受。每一件神所需要完成的事，祂要在时间的桥梁上完成。神驾着祂经纶之车，从永远的第一段，经过了时间的桥梁，进入永远的后一段。借着驾驶祂的车越过时间的桥梁，所有必需的工作就完成了。一旦神从已过的永远，行过时间的桥梁，进入将来的永远，祂就要宣告说，“成了！”（约翰福音生命读经，六一至六二、六五页）
14How can God, who had no humanity in eternity past, have humanity in eternity future as His dwelling place?…Between these two sections of eternity is the bridge of time. In eternity past God planned and purposed, but He did not do anything. In eternity future God will not do anything…He will simply enjoy His finished work. In eternity past He planned, and in eternity future He will enjoy. Everything that God needs to accomplish He accomplishes on the bridge of time. God is “driving the car” of His economy from the first section of eternity, through the bridge of time, into the last section of eternity. By driving His car across the bridge of time, all the necessary work is completed. Once God has traveled from eternity past, through the bridge of time, and into eternity future, He will declare, “Finished!” (Life-study of John, 2nd ed., pp. 55-56, 58)
