12彼前三7 ……作丈夫的……要按她〔妻子〕应得的分敬重她,因为她是与你一同承受生命之恩的。
121 Pet. 3:7 Husbands…assigning honor to them as also to fellow heirs of the grace of life…
13彼前四10 各人要照所得的恩赐,将这恩赐彼此供应,作神诸般恩典的好管家。
134:10 Each one, as he has received a gift, ministering it among yourselves as good stewards of the varied grace of God.
14彼前五5 ……神敌挡狂傲的人,赐恩给谦卑的人。
145:5 …God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.
15彼得也说到生命之恩,是所有信徒,不论刚强或软弱,所承受的(彼前三7)。彼得教导信主的弟兄要爱他们的妻子,并要同情她们,因为妻子是软弱的器皿,是一同承受生命之恩的。……这生命乃是三一神自己作我们的生命,活在我们里面,作我们的产业。
15Peter also speaks of the grace of life that is the inheritance of all the believers, whether strong or weak (1 Pet. 3:7). Peter teaches the believing brothers to love and to sympathize with their wives because the wives as the weaker vessels are fellow heirs of the grace of life…This life is the Triune God Himself as our life, living in us to be our inheritance.
16神诸般的恩典〔四10〕,指明神种种恩典的丰富,由圣徒们彼此供应。你供应我一种的恩典,我供应你另一种的恩典(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第一册,五○八至五○九页)。
16The varied grace of God [1 Pet. 4:10]…indicates the riches of the grace of God in its varieties ministered by the saints to one another. You minister to me one variety of grace, and I minister to you another variety. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 1, “Crystallization-study of the Epistle to the Romans,” p. 404)

17恩典乃是照着我们的情况和环境而有所不同。例如,恩典会照着你有怎样的妻子,是天然顺从的,或是难办的,而有所不同。你的妻子若很好,你的恩典就不会像有难办的妻子那样多。同样,你若没有儿女,就不会享受与儿女有关这一面的恩典。哦,我们都需要认识这诸般的恩典!
17Grace varies according to our situation and environment. For example, it will vary according to the kind of wife you have, whether she is naturally submissive or difficult. If your wife is good, you will not have as much grace as if she were difficult. Likewise, if you do not have any children, you will not enjoy the aspect of grace related to children. Oh, we all need to know this varied grace!
18在彼前五章五节彼得说,我们众人彼此相待,该以谦卑束腰。……神敌挡高举自己在别人之上,并且看自己比别人强的人。我们不该狂傲,并且表现自己在别人之上,却该以谦卑的围裙束腰(彼得前书生命读经,七、三五六至三五七页)。
18In 1 Peter 5:5 Peter says that all of us should gird ourselves with humility toward one another…God resists the one who lifts himself above others and regards himself as better than others. Instead of being proud and showing ourselves above others, we should gird ourselves with the apron of humility. (Life-study of 1 Peter, pp. 5-6, 295-296)
19骄傲乃是我们天生堕落性情的属性。神有祂的属性,我们也有我们的属性。我们这些堕落的人,第一个属性就是骄傲。有谁不骄傲?不骄傲就没有出息。有时老年人责备年轻人,说他们没有雄心傲气,所以没有什么出息。但是在主的工作上,我们要竭力提防骄傲。
19Pride is an attribute of our fallen nature by birth. God has His attributes, and we have ours. We are fallen human beings, and as such, the first attribute we have is pride. Who is not proud? Whoever is not proud is good for nothing. In the Lord’s work, however, we must try our best to guard against pride.
20主甚至对保罗也提防他过于高抬自己,所以让从撒但来的一根刺,加在他的肉体上(林后十二7)。保罗为这根刺曾三次求过主,叫这刺离开他。然而主对他说,“我的恩典够你用的。”(9)主似乎对他说,“保罗,我不挪开这刺,因为我的恩典够你用,我要给你够用的恩典。”
20Even with Paul, the Lord was wary of an exceeding exaltation of himself, so He let him have a thorn in his flesh from Satan (2 Cor. 12:7). Concerning the thorn, Paul entreated the Lord three times that it might depart from him. Nevertheless, the Lord said to him, “My grace is sufficient for you” (v. 9). The Lord seemed to be saying, “Paul, I will not remove the thorn, because My grace is sufficient for you. I will give you sufficient grace.”
21骄傲是毁坏。你一骄傲,就把你的家庭毁坏了;你一骄傲,就把你的婚姻生活毁坏了;你一骄傲,也把你的职业毁坏了。一直要记住,谦卑要救你免去各种的毁坏,而为你邀来神的恩典(雅四6)。神敌挡骄傲的人,赐恩给谦卑的人。你若谦卑,恩典就来了。你若骄傲,恩典就走了;你就阻挡了恩典(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第五册,三四二、三四四页)。
21Pride means destruction…Always remember that humility saves you from all kinds of destruction and invites God’s grace for you. God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble (James 4:6). If you are humble, grace comes. If you are proud, grace goes away; you have hindered grace. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 5, “How to Be a Co-worker and an Elder and How to Fulfill Their Obligations,” pp. 271-273)
22彼得说到全般的恩典;那曾召信徒进入祂永远荣耀的神,要借着他们的苦难,用这恩典成全他们,坚固他们,加强他们,给他们立定根基(彼前五10)。全般的恩典乃是成全的恩典、坚固的恩典、加强的恩典、立定根基的恩典。神借着苦难的管道,用恩典成全、坚固、加强我们,并给我们立定根基。因着我的软弱,几乎每一天对我都是受苦的日子;但神借着苦难成全、坚固、加强我,并给我立定根基。
22Peter speaks of the all grace by which God, who has called the believers into His eternal glory, perfects, establishes, strengthens, and grounds them through their sufferings (1 Pet. 5:10). The all grace is the perfecting grace, establishing grace, strengthening grace, and grounding grace. God perfects, establishes, strengthens, and grounds us by grace through the channel of sufferings. Because of my weakness, nearly every day is a suffering day for me. But God has perfected, established, strengthened, and grounded me through sufferings.
23有些所谓的恩典不是真实的,而是假的。彼前五章十二节有神真实的恩典,就是十节的全般的恩典,是信徒应当进入并在其中站住的(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第一册,五○九至五一○页)。
23Some kinds of so-called grace are untrue; they are false. In 1 Peter 5:12 there is the true grace of God that is the all grace of God in verse 10, into which the believers should enter and in which they should stand. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 1, “Crystallization-study of the Epistle to the Romans,” p. 405)

今日要点
25主题:在生活与事奉中,经历基督作恩典
25
261.彼得在彼前三7说到,『...作丈夫的...要按她〔妻子〕应得的分敬重她,因为她是与你一同承受生命之恩的』,彼得教导信主的弟兄,无论刚强或软弱,都要爱他们的妻子,并要同情他们,因为妻子是软弱的器皿,是一同承受生命之恩的。这生命乃是三一神自己作我们的生命,活在我们里面,作我们的产业,使我们经历父是生命的源头,子是生命的流道,灵是生命的流出,同着子与父在我们里面涌流,作我们的恩典。
26
272.到了彼前四10,彼得说,『各人要照所得的恩赐,将这恩赐彼此供应,作神诸般恩典的好管家』,这里启示神诸般的恩典,就是神种种恩典的丰富,由信徒彼此供应,将三一神在多方多面供应到我们里面,你供应我一种恩典,我供应你一种恩典,这也就会成为神诸般恩典的好管家,讲论作为神谕言之恩典的话,并本于神所供应之恩典的力量和能力服事。
27
283.在彼前五5说到,『...神抵挡狂傲的人,赐恩给谦卑的人,』在召会生活中,我们众人彼此相待,应当以谦卑束腰,使我们享受神作为赐恩者,我们不该狂傲,并且表现在别人之上,却该以谦卑的围裙束腰,如同主束腰为彼得一等门徒洗脚,这样,谦卑就要救我们免去各种的毁坏,而邀来神的恩典,骄傲却使我们成为一个绝顶愚昧的人。
28
294.彼前五10和12也说到,『那全般恩典的神』,曾召信徒进入祂永远的荣耀,借着苦难成全他们,坚固他们,加强他们,给他们立定根基,全般的恩典,成了成全的恩典、坚固的恩典、加强的恩典、立定根基的恩典,我们受苦的日子给神机会成全、坚固、加强、立定根基,此外,10节的『全般恩典』就是12节『神真实的恩典』,信徒要进入这恩典,并在其中站住,站在恩典中。
29
30应用:我们是承受恩典的人,也是盛装生命的器皿,要学习服在神管教之大能的手下,在环境中仍向主敞开,而被作成谦卑的,低微的,并将我们的生活及其罣虑卸给神,让祂对我们有爱和信实的顾念。
