纲目
1五 这些旧约的预言至终达到圣经中关于基督之继续的最大预言；在马太十六章十八节主耶稣说，“我要把我的召会建造……”；甚至到今天，这仍是个未应验的预言：
1
21 关于召会建造的预言，是由主在马太十六章开始，并由使徒保罗在以弗所四章十三至十六节继续；这预言论到召会以专特的方式建造起来，今天仍未应验。
2
32 这预言也可视为基督新妇的预备，至今尚未应验（启十九7～9，弗五25～27）；主关于建造召会以及预备新妇之预言的应验，要把祂带回来；现在就是主成全祂预言的时候。

4太十六18 我还告诉你，你是彼得，我要把我的召会建造在这磐石上，阴间的门不能胜过她。
4Matt. 16:18 And I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.
5弗四13 直到我们众人都达到了信仰上并对神儿子之完全认识上的一，达到了长成的人，达到了基督丰满之身材的度量。
5Eph. 4:13 Until we all arrive at the oneness of the faith and of the full knowledge of the Son of God, at a full-grown man, at the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.
6门徒中可能没有一人，包括彼得在内，曾领悟宇宙中有这样一件事。主耶稣忽然告诉彼得：“我要把我的召会建造……。”……这是一个关于召会的大预言，而现今这仍然是个大预言。这是因为主说这话以后，将近二十个世纪过去了，但我们仍然看不见召会完全建造起来。马太十六章十八节的这预言还未完全应验，所以甚至到今天，这仍是个未应验的预言（李常受文集一九七二年第三册，五六四页）。
6Probably none of the disciples, including Peter, had ever realized that there was such a thing in the universe. Suddenly the Lord Jesus told Peter, “I will build My church.”…This was a great prophecy concerning the church, and it still is a great prophecy. This is because nearly twenty centuries have passed since the Lord spoke this word, yet we still cannot see that the church is fully built up. The fulfillment of this prophecy in Matthew 16:18 has not been fully realized, so even today this prophecy still remains unfulfilled. (CWWL, 1972, vol. 3, “The Greatest Prophecy in the Bible and Its Fulfillment,” p. 425)

Today’s Reading
7许多基督徒说，五旬节那天，主耶稣至少局部应验了祂的预言，因为那天祂的确建造了一样东西。
7Many Christians say that on the day of Pentecost, the Lord Jesus at least partly fulfilled His prophecy because He did build up something on that day.
8我们读〔以弗所四章十三至十六节〕，就能领悟其中有预言。保罗说，“直到我们众人都达到”某个地步。这就是说，那时，甚至现在，所有的圣徒，包括保罗在内，都在往前并竭力追求，直到他们众人都达到。我们必须思想，有没有任何基督徒达到了这三件事：信仰上的一、长成的人以及基督丰满之身材的度量。我们已看见或能看见身体渐渐长大，以致在爱里把自己建造起来么？……我们必须说，看不见。
8By reading [Ephesians 4:13-16], we can realize that there is a prophecy in [it]. Paul says, “Until we all arrive” at something. This means that at that time and even now, all the saints, including Paul, were going on and pressing on until they would all arrive. We have to consider whether or not any Christians have arrived at these three things: the oneness of the faith, a fullgrown man, and the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ. Have we seen or can we see the growth of the Body unto the building up of itself in love?…We have to say no.
9在……五章，也有一种预言，那里说基督要圣化召会（26）。这圣化不是借着血，因为那已经发生了（来十三12）。召会的圣化乃是借着话中之水的洗涤；这不是字句的话，乃是活的话。在活的话里，有圣化并洁净召会的活水。这活水不但洗去召会的污秽，也洗去斑点和皱纹（弗五27）。
9[In chapter 5] there is also a kind of prophecy. Here it says that Christ will sanctify the church (v. 26). This sanctification is not by the blood, because that has already happened (Heb. 13:12). The sanctifying of the church is by the washing of the water in the word, not the word of letters but the living word. In the living word, there is the living water that sanctifies and purifies the church. This living water washes away not only the dirt of the church but also the spots and wrinkles (Eph. 5:27).
10启示录十九章七至八节说，“我们要喜乐欢腾，将荣耀归与祂；因为羔羊婚娶的时候到了，新妇也自己预备好了。又赐她得穿明亮洁净的细麻衣，这细麻衣就是圣徒所行的义。”这些经文说到那要来的羔羊的婚娶，那时祂的妻子，新妇自己预备好了。严格地说，按道理说，那将是预言的应验；但这应验如今还不在这里。……这预言是基督的新妇要预备好。我们需要牢记，在圣经中有一个关于召会建造和基督新妇之预备的大预言。
10[Revelation 19:7-8 says], “Let us rejoice and exult, and let us give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready. And it was given to her that she should be clothed in fine linen, bright and clean; for the fine linen is the righteousnesses of the saints.” These verses speak of the coming marriage of the Lamb, when His wife, the bride, has made herself ready. Strictly speaking, doctrinally speaking, that will be the fulfillment of prophecy, but this fulfillment is still not here…This prophecy is that the bride of Christ will be made ready. We need to be impressed that there is a great prophecy in the Bible regarding the building up of the church and the preparation of Christ’s bride.
11当然，无论主预言什么，必然会得着应验。祂绝不会失败。主既预言祂要建造祂的召会，这预言就必得应验。这预言若不得着应验，主就无法回来。召会若不被建造，这对祂会是个羞耻。撒但就可以说，“你预言召会要得着建造，但你却不能应验这预言。”然而，我有充分的确信，凡主所预言的，祂都要成全，使祂能够回来。在祂回来以前，祂可以向撒但夸口说，“撒但，凡我所预言的，我都已经成全了，所以我要回来了！”主关于召会建造之预言的应验，要把祂带回来。现在就是主成全祂预言的时候（李常受文集一九七二年第三册，五六四至五六七、五七二页）。
11Of course, whatever the Lord has prophesied will surely be fulfilled. He can never be defeated. Since the Lord has prophesied that He will build His church, this prophecy will be fulfilled. Without the fulfillment of this prophecy, there is no way for the Lord to come back. If the church were not built, this would be a shame to Him. Satan would be able to say, “You have prophesied concerning the building up of the church, yet You have not been able to fulfill it.” I have the full assurance, however, that the Lord is going to fulfill whatever He has prophesied so that He may come back. Before His coming back, He may boast to Satan by saying, “Satan, whatever I have prophesied, I have fulfilled, so I am coming!” The fulfillment of the Lord’s prophecy concerning the building up of the church will bring Him back. Now is the time for the Lord to fulfill His prophecy. (CWWL, 1972, vol. 3, “The Greatest Prophecy in the Bible and Its Fulfillment,” pp. 425-428, 431)
12参读：圣经中最大的预言及其应验，第一章；主今日恢复的进展，第一至二章。

今日要点
13主题：建造身体，乃是关于基督的继续最大的预言
13
14引经：太十六18，弗四13
14
151.建造身体，乃是关于基督的继续最大的预言：
15
16A.这些关于基督在使徒行传中的预言，至终达到圣经中关于基督之继续最大的预言，太十六18主亲自对彼得说，『我还告诉你，你是彼得，我要把我的召会建造在这磐石上，阴间的门不能胜过她』，包括彼得在内，没有一位门徒曾领悟这一个圣经中最难应验的预言，在五旬节那天，主耶稣至少局部的应验了这个预言。
16
17B.然而，主说这话以后，二十个世纪过去了，但我们仍然看不见召会完全建造起来，这预言还未完全应验，关于这预言，是由主在太十六18开始，并由使徒保罗在弗四13~16继续，弗四13说，『直到我们众人都达到了信仰上并对神儿子之完全认识上的一，达到了长成的人，达到了基督丰满之身材的度量』。
17
182.经历三个达到，以成全主的预言：
18
19A.这也就是说，那时，甚至现在，所有的圣徒，包括保罗在内，都在往前并竭力追求，直到他们众人都达到，照着现在召会的光景，我们没有看见达到这三方面，达到信仰上的一，达到了长成的人，达到了基督丰满之身材的度量，身体渐渐长大，以致在爱里把自己建造起来，或许经过这些年，身体有一点建造，但完全达到，却尚未看见。
19
20B.主无论预言什么，必然会得着应验，祂绝不失败，祂的预言没有应验，主就无法回来，身体若没有被建造，新妇没有被预备，这对主会是个羞耻，撒但就可以说，你可以预言，但你不会应验，但我们该确信，主预言的必定应验，现在正是主成全祂预言的时候，使得身体得建造，新妇得预备，能在我们这一代实现。
20
21应用：为着身体建造、新妇预备，我们需要每天经历基督来圣化我们，借着享受主的话，经历主话那活水圣化并洁净的能力，而除去我们的污秽、斑点和皱纹，使主能够成全祂的预言。
