10可四26~29 耶稣又说,神的国是这样,如同人把种子撒在地上,黑夜睡觉,白日起来,这种子就发芽渐长,怎么会这样,他并不知道。地生五谷,是出于自然的:先发苗,后长穗,再后穗上结成饱满的子粒。谷既熟了,他立刻用镰刀去割,因为收割的时候到了。
10Mark 4:26-29 And He said, So is the kingdom of God: as if a man cast seed on the earth, and sleeps and rises night and day, and the seed sprouts and lengthens—how, he does not know. The earth bears fruit by itself: first a blade, then an ear, then full grain in the ear. But when the fruit is ripe, immediately he sends forth the sickle, because the harvest has come.
11耶稣基督是神国的种子,这种子已撒在相信祂的人里面。现今这种子正在信徒里面生长并发展。至终,这种生长和发展会有结果,这结果就是国度。
11Jesus Christ is the seed of the kingdom of God, and this seed has been sown into those who believe in Him. Now this seed is growing and developing within the believers. Eventually, this growth and development will have an issue, and the issue will be the kingdom.
12在马可四章二十六至二十九节种子的比喻里,我们看见国度种子的发展。在二十六节……里的“人”就是主耶稣作撒种的人,“种子”就是撒在基督之信徒里面那神圣生命的种子(约壹三9彼前一23),指明神的国是生命,是神生命的事。这生命发芽、长大、结果、成熟并产生收成。
12In the parable of the seed in Mark 4:26-29 we see the development of the kingdom seed. In verse 26…the “man”…is the Lord Jesus as the Sower, and the “seed” is the seed of the divine life (1 John 3:9; 1 Pet. 1:23) sown into the believers of Christ, indicating that the kingdom of God is a matter of life, the life of God, which sprouts, grows, bears fruit, matures, and produces a harvest.
13在马可四章二十八……节……“地”就是好土(8),象征神所创造的好心,为着神圣的生命在人里面长大。这样的好心与撒在其中神圣生命的种子合作,使这种子自然地长大并结实,叫神得着彰显。……种子就是基督,我们就是祂作种子撒在其中的土壤。种子长大,至终会产生收成,就是国度完满的实现(新约总论第八册,八至九页)。
13In verse 28…the “earth” is the good earth (v. 8), signifying the good heart created by God for His divine life to grow in man. Such a good heart works together with the seed of the divine life sown into it to grow and bear fruit spontaneously for the expression of God. The seed is Christ, and we are the soil into which He as the seed has been sown. The seed grows and eventually will produce the harvest, the full manifestation of the kingdom. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, p. 2552)

Today’s Reading
14召会在神眼中是极其重要的,她的地位和基督是相联的,她所负的责任,就是继续基督在地上的争战。基督这头已经升天了,祂的身体还在地上。召会作为基督的身体,乃是基督的繁殖,继续基督的地位和工作,就是反对神的仇敌。
14In the eyes of God the church occupies a very important place. Its position is that of being joined to Christ, and its responsibility is to continue the warfare that Christ fought on earth. Christ the Head has ascended, but His Body is still on earth. The church, as the Body of Christ, is His propagation, continuing His stand and work to fight against God’s enemy.
15以弗所一章二十至二十三节给我们看见,那运行在基督身上的大能,不只叫祂从死里复活,并且使祂升到天上。这复活的能力就是升天的能力。因为祂的复活,召会才有生命;因为祂的升天,召会才有权柄的地位,才有国度。这样,祂就能把天带到地上,神的旨意也就能通行在地上了。基督升到天上,得着了天上的权柄,就能把天带到地上。单是复活不够,还得升天;站在天上的地位,就能远超过一切。主升到天上,所有仇敌的权势都被祂超越了,并且万有都服在祂的脚下(只是如今这事还未彰显出来)。
15Ephesians 1:20-23 shows us that the power which operated in Christ not only raised Him from the dead, but caused Him to ascend to the heavens. This resurrection power is the power of ascension. Through His resurrection the church received its life, and through His ascension the church assumed its position of authority and inherited the kingdom. In this way, He brought heaven to earth, and His will can be done on earth, as in the heavens…When the Lord ascended to the heavens, He transcended all the powers of the enemy, and God subjected all things under His feet. (Of course, this is not fully manifested at the present time.)
16二十三节指明,召会与基督是分不开的;召会是充满基督的,召会就是基督的丰满,基督的洋溢。神的心意就是要得到一个团体的人—召会,由一个一个圣徒里面的基督合成的。召会是团体的基督……。召会作为基督的身体,乃是基督的继续;基督所有的一切,乃是召会的,基督所得着的地位,召会也得着;基督所完成的工作,召会继续维持。
16Verse 23 clearly shows that the church and Christ are inseparable. The church is filled with Christ; it is the fullness of Christ, the overflow of Christ. God’s desire is to gain a corporate man. The church, which is formed of individual saints who are put into Christ, is the corporate Christ…As the Body of Christ, the church is the continuation of Christ. Everything that belongs to Christ belongs to the church. The position that Christ attained is the position that the church has attained. The works that Christ accomplished are sustained and perpetuated through the church.
17基督的十字架产生了召会,而召会带进国度;所以,召会是介乎十字架和国度之间。在这期间,就是召会在地上实现主的得胜的时候。头得胜了,身体也要得胜。主在十字架上毁坏了魔鬼,并用复活的生命产生了召会。今天神要借着召会,在地上建立祂的国度。今天召会必须继续基督所作那抵挡撒但的得胜工作,并负责将天上的旨意带到地上,并将其实行在地上(倪柝声文集第二辑第二十四册,五三至五五页)。
17The cross of Christ produced the church, and the church brings in the kingdom. Hence, the church stands between the cross and the kingdom. The present age is the time for the church to practically realize the victory of Christ. The Head has overcome; now the Body must also overcome. The Lord destroyed the devil on the cross and produced the church with resurrection life. Today God is establishing His kingdom on earth through His church. The church must continue the victorious work that Christ has carried out against Satan. It is responsible for bringing heaven’s will down to earth and for carrying it out on earth. (CWWN, vol. 44, pp. 777-778)

今日要点
19主题:在召会中过国度生活,以带进国度的实现
19
20引经:可四26~29
20
211.在神圣生命里长大并发展,好带进国度:
21
22a.耶稣基督是神国的种子,这种子已经撒在相信祂的人里面,现今这种子正在信徒里面生长并发展,这种生长和发展会有结果,这结果就是国度,在可四26~ 29,『耶稣又说,神的国是这样,如同人把种子撒在地上,黑夜睡觉,白日起来,这种子就发芽渐长,怎么会这样,他并不知道。地生五谷,是出于自然的:先发苗,后长穗,再后穗上结成饱满的子粒。谷既熟了,他立刻用镰刀去割,因为收割的时候到了。 』
22
23b.这段经文给我们看见国度种子的发展,人就是主这撒种者,种子也是基督作生命种子,地就是好土,象征神所创造的好心,为着神圣生命的长大,这样的好心与种子合作,使种子长大并结实,叫这生命得着彰显,收成就是国度完满的实现。
23
242.召会的职责乃是借有分属灵的争战,以带进国度:
24
25a. 我们才在国度的实际里,所以我们需要成为敞开的器皿,成为在神圣三一分赐之下的人,需要在召会中过国度的生活,在神圣的生命里长大并发展,直到我们达到成熟,使我们把国度带进来,当我们在召会中过国度的生活,召会就要带进国度,也就是说,今世操练有国度的实际,就带进来世国度的实现。
25
26b.可以说,召会的产生乃是为着带进国度,今天召会在地上的工作,就是要把神的国带进来,将天上的旨意带到地上,因此,在诸天管治之下产生的召会,借着服在天的管治之下,对付神的仇敌,今天神要借着召会,在地上建立祂的国度,召会必须继续基督所作那抵挡撒但的得胜工作,负责将天上的旨意带到地上,并实行在地上。
26
27应用:我们需要找到能够一同争战祷告的属灵同伴,不是为自己生活顺利的祷告,而是一种守望祷告,好抵挡撒但、对付仇敌,而使召会与神合作,为着国度的实现。
