22耶稣的灵不只是神的灵,在祂里面有神性,使我们能活神圣的生命;也是那人耶稣的灵,在祂里面有人性,使我们能过正确的人性生活,也能忍受其中的痛苦。我们也必须经历耶稣之灵里受苦的元素。当主耶稣在这地上时,祂一直受苦。今天这受苦的生命就在那灵里;受苦的元素、受苦的力量,现今乃是在耶稣的灵里。当我们有这灵在我们里面运行,我们就常常感觉受苦的能力和受苦的度量。有东西在我们里面加力给我们,使我们承担一切的难处。绝不要以为当我们属灵,就没有麻烦。我们越属灵,就越被麻烦;但我们要被耶稣的灵充满,祂要使我们能够受苦。在这灵里有受苦的元素(李常受文集一九六五年第一册,七五三至七五四、七六二页)。
22The Spirit of Jesus is not only the Spirit of God with divinity in Him that we may live the divine life but also the Spirit of the man Jesus with humanity in Him that we may live the proper human life and endure its sufferings. We will also experience the suffering element in the Spirit of Jesus. While the Lord Jesus was on this earth, He suffered all the time. Today this suffering life is in the Spirit. The suffering element, the suffering strength, is now in the Spirit of Jesus. When we have this Spirit moving within us, we will frequently sense a suffering energy and a suffering capacity. Something within us energizes us to bear all hardships. Never think that when we are spiritual, we will have no trouble. The more spiritual we are, the more we will be troubled, but we will be filled with the Spirit of Jesus, who will enable us to suffer. Within this Spirit is the suffering element.
