8从以弗所四章四至六节我们可以看见,我们合一的实行是根据召会一的属性:一灵、一主、一神和一个身体,还有一信、一浸并一个盼望。可见,一是召会的属性;根据召会这一的属性,我们就能同心合意,将合一实行出来。并且,这合一的实行是照着使徒的教训(林前四17下,七17下,十一16,十四34上)。使徒在各处,在各召会中,教导圣徒同样的事。同时,这合一的实行也是照着那灵对众召会所说同样的话(启二7上、11上、17上、29,三6、13、22)。启示录二、三章写给七个召会的七封书信,都是对众召会说的,凡有耳的,就应当听。没有一卷书,不是写给众召会的。众召会所有的是同一本圣经,大家都是照着同样的话实行合一。结果,这合一的实行就指明七个召会的七个金灯台是完全相同(启一20)。众召会是神的金灯台,虽是分开,各自独立,但在本质、形状、功用和彰显上是完全一样的。 8From Ephesians 4:4-6 we can see that our practice of oneness is based upon the attribute of the oneness of the church: one Spirit, one Lord, one God, one Body, one faith, one baptism, and one hope. By this we can see that oneness is the attribute of the church. Based upon this attribute of the oneness of the church, we can be in one accord and can practice the oneness. Moreover, the practice of this oneness is according to the apostles’ teaching (1 Cor. 4:17b; 7:17b; 11:16; 14:34a). The apostles taught the same thing to all the saints in all the places and in all the churches. At the same time, the practice of this oneness is also according to the same speaking of the Spirit to the churches (Rev. 2:7a, 11a, 17a, 29; 3:6, 13, 22). The seven epistles to the seven churches in Revelation 2 and 3 are words spoken to all the churches. He who has an ear, let him hear. Each epistle was written to all the churches. All the churches have the same Bible, and everyone is practicing oneness according to the same speaking. Finally, the practice of oneness indicates that the seven churches as the seven lampstands are completely identical (1:20). The churches are God’s golden lampstands. Although they are distinct and self-contained, they are completely identical in nature, shape, function, and expression.
