纲目
1三 子是神圣三一的中心,在祂成肉体的时期中,在祂建立属天国度的君尊职事里,完全不靠自己,不为自己,也不向着自己;祂所作的一切都是靠着神的灵,并为着父神的国——太十二28
1
21 神圣三一这凭神圣配搭而有的行动,给我们看见神圣三一的和谐、美丽与优越,并且是元首为我们这些祂身体肢体的配搭所立之优越、美丽的榜样;今天在召会生活里,由于缺少正确的配搭,基督的身体还没有充分地建造起来。
2
32 我们所作的不该靠自己,乃该靠一些其他的人;不仅如此,我们所作的也不该为我们自己,乃该为神在地上的权益、权利。

4太十二28 我若靠着神的灵赶鬼,这就是神的国临到你们了。
4Matt. 12:28 But if I, by the Spirit of God, cast out the demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
5来九14 何况基督借着永远的灵,将自己无瑕无疵地献给神,祂的血岂不更洁净我们的良心,使其脱离死行,叫我们事奉活神么?
5Heb. 9:14 How much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
6在神圣三一里有许多神圣的优越、神圣的美德和神圣的属性,诸如合一、谦卑、美丽以及和谐。……在马太十二章二十八节,主说,“我〔子〕若靠着神〔三一神,包括父〕的灵赶鬼,这就是神〔三一神〕的国临到你们了。”……难道主耶稣不能靠着自己赶鬼么?……祂那时是在骄傲、自私、单独的法利赛人中间。他们不肯与任何人一同工作。在他们中间没有谦卑,并且他们满了自利、自私。现在有一位他们所定罪的,站在他们面前,告诉他们说,祂以不同的方式作了一件事。……祂不是单独的。……祂乃是靠着神的灵作事,为着神的国作事。祂从未靠自己或为自己作什么。这岂不是很美么?这给我们看见神圣三一里的优越(李常受文集一九八八年第一册,四二三至四二四页)。
6Within the Divine Trinity there are many divine excellencies, divine virtues, and divine attributes, such as oneness, humility, beauty, and harmony. In Matthew 12:28 the Lord said, “If I [the Son], by the Spirit of God [the Triune God including the Father], cast out the demons, then the kingdom of God [the Triune God] has come upon you.”…Couldn’t the Lord Jesus have cast out these demons by Himself?…At that time He was among the Pharisees, who were proud, selfish, and individualistic. They would not work with anyone else. There was no humility among them, and they were full of self-seeking, selfishness. Now there was One, condemned by them and standing in front of them, telling them that He did something in a different way…He was not individualistic…He was doing something by the Spirit of God and for the kingdom of God. He never did anything by Himself or for Himself. Is this not beautiful? This shows us the excellency in the Divine Trinity. (CWWL, 1988, vol. 1, “Living in and with the Divine Trinity,” pp. 307-308)

7这的确是我们配搭的好榜样。主已经产生了一个身体,是由许多肢体所构成的,所以众肢体都当学祂。祂靠神的灵,为父神作工。祂从未靠自己,或为自己作任何事。……我们的行为应当就像我们的元首。祂所行所为都不靠自己,也不为自己。今天在召会生活里,由于缺少正确的配搭,基督的身体还没有充分地建造起来。我们若要与身体里的众肢体有配搭,就必须学我们的元首基督,以祂为我们的榜样。……我可能照着神的旨意作一件事,但我所作的不该靠自己,乃该靠一些其他的人。不仅如此,我所作的也不该为我自己,乃该为神在地上的权益、权利。这是美丽的,而这样的美丽,乃是真实的优越,真实的神圣属性,也是绝佳的美德,是我们所需要效法的。
7This is surely a good pattern for our coordination. The Lord has produced a Body constituted with many members, so all the members should learn of Him. He was working by the Spirit of God for God the Father. He never did anything by Himself or for Himself…We should behave ourselves just like our Head. He behaved Himself in a way of neither doing anything by Himself nor doing anything for Himself. Today in the church life the Body of Christ has not been built up adequately because of the shortage of the proper coordination. If we want to be coordinated with all the members in the Body, we have to learn of Christ our Head, taking Him as our pattern…I may do something according to the will of God, but what I do should not be by myself but by some others. Furthermore, what I do should not be for myself but for the interest, the right, of God on the earth. This is a beauty, and this beauty is a real excellency, a real divine attribute, and an excellent virtue that we need to copy.
8主……不说祂是靠自己,并为祂自己的国赶鬼。祂反而说,祂是靠另一位,并为另一位赶鬼。祂的灵是多么的谦卑,多么的无己。祂不靠自己或为自己作什么。在祂身上没有己,没有自私的元素。这是一种的美丽。
8The Lord did not say that He cast out demons by Himself for His own kingdom. Instead, He said that He cast out demons by another One and for another One. His spirit was so humble, so selfless. He did nothing by Himself or for Himself. With Him there was no self, no element of selfishness. This is a beauty.
9在马太十二章,主靠着神的灵赶鬼。希伯来九章十四节说,祂借着永远的灵将自己献上。我们再次要问,为什么主不借着祂自己将祂自己献给神?……祂是够格的;祂若肯,祂就能作;但祂不肯。祂借着一个管道,一个凭借,也就是借着永远的灵,将祂自己献上。
9In Matthew 12 the Lord cast out demons by the Spirit of God. Hebrews 9:14 says He offered Himself through the eternal Spirit. Again, we need to ask why the Lord did not offer Himself to God by Himself…He was qualified, and He could if He would, but He would not. He offered Himself through a channel, through a means, that is, through the eternal Spirit.
10在此我们……看见,子的谦卑和无己,……也看见在神圣三一里的和谐。子……不信靠自己,乃信靠另一位。凡祂所作的,都不是为祂自己,乃是为着父;凡从祂所产生的结果,都是归给父。祂完全不靠祂自己,不为祂自己,也不向着祂自己。
10We can see the humility and the selflessness of the Son…[and] the harmony in the Divine Trinity. The Son…did not trust in Himself but in another One. Whatever He did was not for Himself but for the Father, and whatever issued out of Him went to the Father. He was altogether not by Himself, for Himself, or to Himself.
11这是我们的元首为祂的身体所立下的好榜样,我们都是这身体的肢体。……我们作事的时候,应当学习不靠自己去作。我们虽然是作事的人,但我们不该是管道。我们需要另一位作我们的管道,使我们能借着这管道作事。不仅如此,我们不该从我们所作的得益。应当有另一位是我们的受益人,从我们的所作和所是得益处(李常受文集一九八八年第一册,四二四至四二八页)。
11This is a good pattern that our Head has set up for His Body, of which we all are members …When we do things, we should learn to do them not by ourselves. We are the doers, but we should not be the channel. We need someone else to be our channel through which we do things. Furthermore, we should not be the beneficiary of what we do. Someone else should be our beneficiary to receive the very benefit of our doing and of our being. (CWWL, 1988, vol. 1, “Living in and with the Divine Trinity,” pp. 308-310)

今日要点
13主题:跟随主不信靠自己的榜样,而使国度得着建立
13
14引经:太十二28来九14
14
151.主不信靠自己,靠着神的灵,为着神的国:
15
16A.子也是神圣三一的中心,在祂成肉体的时期中,在祂建立属天国度的君尊职事里,主完全不靠自己,不为自己,不向自己,一切都靠着神的灵,为着父的国,在太十二28说,『我若靠着神的灵赶鬼,这就是神的国临到你们了』,这里有三一神,这位子所倚靠的,乃是包括父的三一神的灵,即便主穿上无罪的肉体,祂也不靠自己,不单独行事,而是靠神的灵,为父的国。
16
17B.在马太十二章,主靠着神的灵赶鬼,而来九14说,『何况基督借着永远的灵,将自己无瑕无疵的献给神,祂的血岂不更洁净我们的良心,使其脱离死行,叫我们事奉活神么? 』祂自己是够资格的,可以自己将自己献给神,但祂宁可借着永远的灵,将祂献上,这就说出子的谦卑和无己,也看见三一神的和谐。
17
182.跟随主的榜样,经历身体的配搭,使国度得着建立:
18
19A.主耶稣在出生时,就由圣灵成孕,并由马利亚所生,兼有神性和人性,在祂的人性里没有罪,在祂的神性里有神圣的能力,这样的一位,主耶稣竟然不靠自己赶鬼,这是因着主有五个不:不从自己作什么、不作自己的工、说自己的话、不凭着自己的意思,也不寻求自己的荣耀,这给我们看见神圣三一里的优越。
19
20B.神圣三一这凭神圣配搭而有的行动,给我们看见神圣三一的和谐、美丽和优越,并且是元首为我们这些祂身体肢体的配搭所立之优越、美丽的榜样,今天在召会生活里,我们需要学习元首基督,以基督为榜样,有更多正确的配搭,不为自己的权益和利益,而是为着神在地上的权益,好使基督的身体充分的建造起来。
20
21应用:我们需要蒙光照,看见自己总是骄傲、自私自利、单独的光景,而向主悔改,使我们学习倚靠的功课,倚靠身体上的每一个肢体,不看自己比别人强,也不看自己低于别人,而使我们过彼此扶持的身体生活,而有国度的实际。
