纲目

1肆我们众人都该跟随使徒保罗的榜样，为着那独一的身体，作同一宇宙的工作 ——林前三12，十五58，十六10，弗四11～16：

2一主恢复的工作乃是为着建造众地方召会，以建造基督宇宙的身体 ——二21～22，林前十六10。

3二今天的工人分四种：

41 头一种是应付神今日时代职事需要的同工；这班人是同心合意，经神对付过的少数人。

52 第二种是后进的同工，他们愿意顺服年长同工的引导、支配，并愿意谦卑跟随学习。

63 第三种是不肯服从前面先进的同工，又不属于公会，却又喜欢与我们交通的人。

74 第四种是在公会中的传道人、自由布道家等。

8三我们今天需要的，乃是头一种与第二种的同工；关于第三和第四种工人，我们只能让他们拣选他们自己的道路；有些人，神没有预备安排他们与我们走一样的路，我们对他们不敢有怎样的表示。

9四无论如何，我们在此乃是作神所托付我们的一分工作；至于别人的工作如何，我们不能干涉，我们在此并不破坏别人的工作。

10林前三12～13 然而，若有人用金、银、宝石，木、草、禾秸，在这根基上建造，各人的工程必然显露，因为那日子要将它指明出来；它要在火中被揭露，这火要试验各人的工程是哪一种的。

101 Cor. 3:12-13 But if anyone builds upon the foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, grass, stubble, the work of each will become manifest; for the day will declare it, because it is revealed by fire, and the fire itself will prove each one’s work, of what sort it is.

11创世记二章……有生命的水流，到三章就有火流—发火焰的剑。火焰是代表神的圣别，剑是代表神的公义。以神的圣别、公义来说，我们是该死、该杀的。凡不让生命水流流过的人，至终都要被火流流过。人所有的事物不让生命水流流过，至终都要受火流的焚烧。一个基督徒的生活、工作、家庭、生意，都需要让生命水的河流经过。……只有被生命的水流流过的，才能产生金、珍珠和宝石；不然的话，所有的事物都是木、草、禾秸、粪土。不要说是我们所作的工，就连神自己所创造的天地，有一天都要被焚烧，何况我们所作，不是属于神的事物呢？只有神的生命才能够永远长留，凡不是属于神生命的都要被焚烧。虽然那些事可能都是神所造的，但是，因为没有神的生命，至终也要被焚烧（李常受文集一九三二至一九四九年第二册，二八九页）。

11In Genesis 2 we see a river of life, and in chapter 3 we see a river of fire. The flame signifies God’s holiness, and the sword signifies God’s righteousness. As far as God’s holiness and righteousness are concerned, we should die. All those who do not allow the river of life to flow through them will have the river of fire flowing through them. Everything that will not give way to the flow of the river of life will eventually pass through the burning of the river of fire. A Christian’s life, work, family, and business must all be put under the river of life…Only by allowing the river of life to flow through us will there be gold, pearl, and precious stones. Everything else is wood, grass, stubble, and dung. Not only will our work pass away; even God’s own heaven and earth will be burned one day, and our own work, that is, the things that do not belong to God, will be burned away as well. Only God’s life will remain forever. Everything that is not of life will be burned. Although these things may have been created by God, they do not have the life of God. As such, they will burn away. (Messages Given during the Resumption of Watchman Nee’s Ministry, vol. 1, pp. 148-149)

Today’s Reading

12今天在水流与火流之中，还有一道血流；本来要被火流烧的东西，假如我们肯放在血底下，血流就可以把这一些东西变成水流。所有属于自己的东西，有血流补救。一面，我们需要自审，另一面，自审以后，需要靠着主的宝血，这样才能够脱离火流而进入水流。

12Today between the river of water and the river of fire, there is a river of blood. What should have been consumed by the river of fire is merged into the river of water by passing through the river of blood. We have the river of blood to take care of everything that is of ourselves. On the one hand, we need to examine ourselves. On the other hand, after we have examined ourselves, we need to trust in the blood of the Lord. In this way we will be saved from the river of fire into the river of water.

13在启示录末了，一面是一座水城，另一面是一个火湖。水城乃是说明神的生命、神的圣别，彰显神的荣耀。火湖乃是说明神的公义。神的荣耀说出神的自己，神的圣别说出所有不是神的、与神性情不合的，都要落到火湖里。……火……乃是除掉不圣别、不属于神的东西，……烧掉一切不是属于神性情的。

13At the end of Revelation there is a city of water and there is a lake of fire. The city of water signifies God’s life and holiness. It manifests God’s glory. The lake of fire signifies God’s righteousness, and God’s glory speaks of God Himself. According to God’s holiness, everything not of God and not according to His nature will be thrown into the lake of fire…The purpose of the fire is to remove that which is not holy and that which does not belong to God…[and] is not according to God’s nature.

14我们去看望一个人，我们不应该光问这是不是神的旨意，该不该去，乃是要问神是否与我们同去。……〔我们作事〕如果还是自己的成分，这个还不能叫神喜悦。真正的作事是需要神带着我们去作。祂需要经过我们的思想出来，再由我们意志，定夺一件事作或不作。

14I should not ask if it is God’s will for me to [visit a person]. Rather, I should ask if God is going with me…As long as there is an element of the self in the things that we do, we will not please God. Genuine work involves God’s working with us. Before deciding on whether or not we should do something, we must first allow God to pass through our mind and will.

15今天的工人分四种：头一种是应付神今日时代职事需要的同工；这班人是同心合意，经神对付过的少数人。第二种是后进的同工，他们愿意顺服年长同工的引导、支配，并愿意谦卑跟随学习。第三种是不肯服从前面先进的同工，又不属于公会，却又喜欢与我们交通的人。第四种是在公会中的传道人、自由布道家等。我们今天需要的，乃是头一种与第二种的同工。

15Today there are four kinds of workers. First, there are coworkers who match the need of the ministry of God in the present age. This is a small group of people who have been dealt with by the Lord and who are in one accord. Second, there are younger co-workers who are willing to receive direction and come under the coordination of the older co-workers. They are willing to follow and to learn in humility. Third, there are those who are unwilling to submit to the senior coworkers and who do not belong to the denominations, but who are happy to remain in fellowship with us. Fourth, there are preachers and free evangelists among the denominations. Today we need the first and second kind of co-workers.

16关于第三和第四种工人，我们只能让他们拣选他们自己的道路。有些人，神没有预备安排他们与我们走一样的路，我们对他们不敢有怎样的表示。无论如何，我们在此乃是作神所托付我们的一分工作。至于别人的工作如何，我们不能干涉，我们在此并不破坏别人的工作（李常受文集一九三二至一九四九年第二册，二九○至二九一、二九五至二九六页）。

16Concerning the third and the fourth kind of co-workers, we can only let them choose their own pathway. God has not assigned some people to take the same way that we have, and we dare not say anything to them. Whatever their situation may be, we are here to do the work that God has committed to us. We cannot interfere with others’ work, and we are not here to tear down others’ work. (Messages Given during the Resumption of Watchman Nee’s Ministry, vol. 1, pp. 150, 149-150, 153-154)

今日要点

18主题：跟随使徒保罗的榜样，为着身体作同一宇宙的工作

19引经：林前三12~13

201.跟随使徒保罗的榜样，为着身体作同一宇宙的工作：

21A.我们要成为使徒行传的继续，我们就需要蒙保守在主工作的一道流中，为着召会的扩展，并且受主怜悯蒙拯救脱离撒但的诡计，使我们众人都跟随使徒保罗的榜样，为着那独一的身体，作同一宇宙的工作，今天，主恢复的工作并非强调因信称义，这是五百年前的恢复，今天主恢复的工作，乃是为着建造众地方召会，以建造基督宇宙的身体。

22B.要有分这建造，我们需看见，林前三12~13说，然而，若有人用金、银、宝石、木、草、禾秸，在这根基上建造，各人的工程必然显露，因为那日子要将它指明出来；它要在火中被揭露，这火要试验各人的工程是哪一种的』，我们都该让生命水流流过我们，好能产生金、银、宝石，有永存的价值。

232.成为第二种同工，有分神所托付的工作：

24A.今天的工人分四种：头一种是应付神今日时代职事需要的同工；这班人是同心合意，经神对付过的少数人。第二种是后进的同工，他们愿意顺服年长同工的引导、支配，并愿意谦卑跟随学习。第三种是不肯服从前面先进的同工，又不属于公会，却又喜欢与我们交通的人。第四种是在公会中的传道人、自由布道家等。我们今天需要的，乃是头一种与第二种的同工。

25b.关于第三和第四种同工，我们只能让他们拣选他们自己的道路。有些人，神没有豫备安排他们与我们走一样的路，我们对他们不敢有怎样的表示。无论如何，我们在此乃是作神所托付我们的一分工作。至于别人的工作如何，我们不能干涉，我们在此并不破坏别人的工作。

26应用：凡不让生命水流流过的人，最终都要被火湖的火流经过，受火流的焚烧，为此我们不该凭着天然生命为主作工，而该一直取用主的血，使我们脱离火流，而进入水流，我们该祷告，求主那日要烧去的，今天就来烧，而使我们蒙保守在主工作的一道流中，为着身体的建造，终极完成新耶路撒冷。
