纲目

1伍在彼前二章十九至二十节，“在神乃是甜美的〔直译，恩典〕，”指神圣生命在我们里面的推动，以及在我们生活中的彰显，使我们的行事为人，在人与神眼中，都是甜美、可蒙悦纳的：

2一恩典乃是经过过程的三一神给我们享受，在我们与神亲密的交通并我们对神的感觉中，成为在我们里面的推动，以及在我们外面的彰显；我们都必须学习如何接受恩典，就是取用恩典、据有恩典、使用恩典并应用恩典——来十二28。

3二经过过程的三一神作为我们所得着并享受的恩典，彰显于我们圣别的生活与召会的聚会中，成为别人看得见的——徒十一23。

4三我们已经蒙召在受苦中享受基督作恩典并彰显祂，使我们照着那作我们模型之基督的神人生活，成为祂的复制品，影印本——彼前二20～21。

5彼前二19~21 人若因着对神的感觉而忍受忧愁，受冤屈之苦，就是甜美的。……你们若因行善受苦而忍耐，这在神乃是甜美的。你们蒙召原是为此，因基督也为你们受过苦，给你们留下榜样，叫你们跟随祂的脚踪行。

51 Pet. 2:19-21 For this is grace, if anyone, because of a consciousness of God, bears sorrows by suffering unjustly…If, while doing good and suffering, you endure, this is grace with God. For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered on your behalf, leaving you a model so that you may follow in His steps.

6若因着对神的感觉，我们愿意忍受忧愁，受冤屈之苦，就是受冤屈对待之苦，这乃是甜美的。彼前二章十九节的“甜美”，直译，恩典；在此指神圣生命在我们里面的推动，以及在我们生活中的彰显，使我们的行事为人，在人与神眼中，都是甜美、可蒙悦纳的（20）（彼得前书生命读经，二○七页）。

6If, due to our consciousness of God, we are willing to bear sorrows and suffer unjustly, that is, suffer unjust treatment, this is grace. The Greek word rendered “grace” in 1 Peter 2:19 is charis, referring here to the motivation of the divine life within us and its expression in our living, which becomes in our behavior gracious and acceptable in the eyes of both man and God (v. 20). (Lifestudy of 1 Peter, pp. 172-173)

7因着对神的感觉〔彼前二19〕，这话也可译作：为着对神的良心。对神的感觉，即与神关系的感觉；这指明一个信徒是活在与神亲密的交通中，向神存着并持守无亏、清洁的良心。

7A consciousness of God [1 Pet. 2:19] can also be rendered “for conscience toward God” and is the consciousness of our relation to God. It indicates that a believer is living in an intimate fellowship with God, that he has and keeps a conscience toward God that is both good and pure.

8照下文看，彼前二章十九节所说到的冤屈之苦，必是指不信的主人所加的苦待，他们因着信主之仆人身上基督徒的见证而反对、逼迫他们（三14~18，四12~16）。

8According to the context, the unjust suffering spoken of in 1 Peter 2:19 must be the mistreatment inflicted by the unbelieving masters. These masters opposed and persecuted their believing servants because of their Christian testimony (3:14-18; 4:12-16).

9这些经文说到我们基督徒日常生活中的行事为人。基督徒的生活是行事为人的问题。假定我们里面没有神圣的生命，这的确会使家庭生活非常艰难，尤其在与我们的姻亲，特别是与岳母、婆婆的关系上。……对夫妻而言，岳母和婆婆都会造成为难的情况。为这缘故，按人说，夫妻婚后不与岳母、婆婆同住较好。

9These verses speak about our behavior in our daily life as Christians. The Christian life is a matter of behavior. Suppose we did not have the divine life within us. This would certainly make family life very difficult, especially in relation to our in-laws, and particularly, to the mother-in-law…For both a husband and a wife, a mother-in-law can create a difficult situation. For this reason, humanly speaking, it is better that a married couple not have a motherin-law live with them.

10这里的点乃是，我们若是没有神圣生命的人，无论我们多么彼此相爱，在婚姻生活中仍会面临难处。……无论夫妻多么相像，他们之间的脾气、个性、习惯、背景和领会仍会有所不同。丈夫会有他看事情的方式，妻子也会有她的。同样，妻子会有她的习惯和个性，丈夫也会有他的。所以，因着脾气、个性、习惯、背景和领会的方式这五个搅扰的因素，他们会有难处。即使夫妻彼此非常相爱，又都是文雅、受过教育的人，情况也是如此。至少有时候他们会发觉情况无法忍受，并会彼此争吵。倘若岳母或婆婆这时候来访，她会发觉情况全然不愉快、不可蒙悦纳。她甚至不愿看见这样不甜美的情况。

10The point here is that if we are those without the divine life, we will face problems in our married life, no matter how much we may love one another… No matter how much alike a husband and a wife may be, there will be differences between them regarding temper, disposition, habit, background, and understanding. The husband will have his way of viewing things, and the wife will have hers. Likewise, the wife will have her habits and disposition, and the husband will have his. Therefore, they will have difficulties with the five troubling factors of temper, disposition, habit, background, and way of understanding. This will be the situation even if the husband and wife love each other very much and are refined, educated people. Sometimes at least they will find the situation intolerable and will quarrel with one another. If a mother-in-law is visiting at such a time, she will find the situation altogether unpleasant and unacceptable. She would not even want to observe such an ungracious situation.

11但假定夫妻都有神圣的生命，并照着这生命而活。尽管在脾气、个性、习惯、背景和领会上有不同，却有恩典在里面推动夫妻二人。不但如此，这恩典彰显在他们的生活中。倘若岳母或婆婆亲眼看见他们的生活方式，她会发觉那是甜美、愉快、并可蒙悦纳的。这就是恩典。

11But suppose a husband and wife both have the divine life and live according to this life. In spite of the differences in temper, disposition, habit, background, and understanding, grace inwardly motivates both the husband and the wife. Furthermore, this grace is expressed in their living. If the mother-in-law of either the husband or wife observes their way of living, she will find it gracious, pleasant, and acceptable. This is grace.

12彼得……说，“这……乃是恩典。”（直译）然后他告诉我们，基督给我们留下榜样。恩典与榜样息息相关。任何人亲眼看见三一神作为恩典从信徒里面彰显出来，并承认这是恩典，就指明这人成了基督这榜样的影印本。在冤屈之苦中彰显三一神作恩典，就是成为基督的复制品。因此，我们可以不说，“这是恩典”，而说，“这是基督的复制”。彰显经过过程之三一神作恩典的生活，不单是恩典—这乃是基督的复制（彼得前书生命读经，二○七至二○九、二一八页）。

12Peter…says, “This is grace.” Then he tells us that Christ has left us a model. The grace and the model are closely related. When anyone observes the expression of the Triune God as grace from within a believer and recognizes that this is grace, there is an indication that this one has become a xerox copy of Christ, the model. To express the Triune God as grace in the midst of unjust suffering is to become a reproduction of Christ. Therefore, instead of saying, “This is grace,” it is possible to say, “This is a reproduction of Christ.” The manner of life that expresses the processed Triune God as grace is not only grace—it is a reproduction of Christ. (Life-study of 1 Peter, pp. 173-174, 182)

今日要点

14主题：过里面经历恩典，外面显出甜美之基督徒生活

151.里面经历恩典，外面显出甜美：

16A.在彼前二19~21说，『人若因着对神的感觉而忍受忧愁，受冤屈之苦，就是甜美的。 ...你们若因行善受苦而忍耐，这在神乃是甜美的。你们蒙召原是为此，因基督也为你们受过苦，给你们留下榜样，叫你们跟随祂的脚踪行』，这段同样说到信徒在神行政下受神的审判，在环境中忍受忧愁、冤屈、苦难，照上下文，冤屈之苦必定是不信之主人加在信主之奴仆的苦待，因为他们身上的见证而反对、逼迫他们。

17B.经文两次说到「甜美的」，直译，恩典；翻译甜美的，更能说出，神圣生命在信徒里面的推动，就是恩典，使他们在生活中有外在的彰显，就是「甜美的」，这样信徒的行事为人，在神与人眼中，都是甜美、可蒙悦纳的，经过过程的三一神作为我们所得着的恩典，彰显于我们圣别的生活与召会的聚会中，使恩典成为可见的。

182.经历恩典，成为基督榜样的复制：

19A.经文说到关乎基督徒日常生活的行事为人，需要凭着里面神圣的生命，我们若是没有神圣生命的人，无论多么彼此相爱，在婚姻生活中仍会面临难处，可能因着年龄增长，知道彼此的红线，而不触碰，却失去了「甜美的」，假若夫妻都有神圣的生命，并照着生命而活，尽管许多不同，却有恩典在里面推动，并彰显在生活中，而给人看见「甜美的」。

20B.彼得先说到这是甜美的，就是恩典，然后说到基督给我们留下榜样，前有恩典，后有榜样，这二者息息相关，任何人亲眼看见三一神作为恩典从信徒里面彰显出来，并承认这是恩典，就指明这人成了基督这榜样的复印本，成了基督的复制，在冤屈之苦中彰显出三一神出来。

21应用：我们已经蒙召在受苦中享受基督作恩典并彰显祂，就要借着清晨有个人与主的时间祷告，生活中不断地联于主，与祂有交通，学习如何接受、取用、据有、使用、应用恩典，好过那作我们模型之基督的神人生活，成为祂的复制品，影印本。
