16彼前五2 务要牧养你们中间神的群羊,按着神监督他们,不是出于勉强,乃是出于甘心;不是为着卑鄙的利益,乃是出于热切。
161 Pet. 5:2 Shepherd the flock of God among you, overseeing not under compulsion but willingly, according to God; not by seeking gain through base means but eagerly.
17彼后一4 借这荣耀和美德,祂已将又宝贵又极大的应许赐给我们,叫你们……借着这些应许,得有分于神的性情。
172 Pet. 1:4 Through which He has granted to us precious and exceedingly great promises that through these you might become partakers of the divine nature…
18在彼得的头一封书信中,在二章二十五节他说到基督是我们魂的牧人和监督,而我们的魂乃是我们内里的所是,也就是我们的真人位。在五章一至二节他告诉长老们,务要按着神牧养神的群羊。按着神,意思就是我们必须活神;我们必须随时随处有神。我们在我们的悟性上、道理上与教训上有神,但我们在牧养人时可能没有活神。当我们与神是一,我们就成了神。在我们牧养别人时,我们就有神并且就是神。按着神牧养,意思就是按着神属性的所是牧养。神是爱、光、圣、义。……我们必须按着这四种属性牧养年幼的、软弱的和退后的。这样,我们就是好牧人。
18Peter speaks of Christ being the Shepherd and Overseer of our soul, our inner being and real person (1 Pet. 2:25). Then in 5:1-2 he tells the elders that their obligation is to shepherd God’s flock according to God. According to God means that we must live God. We must have God on hand. We have God in our understanding, in our theology, and in our teaching, but we may not live God when we are shepherding people. When we are one with God, we become God. Then we have God and are God in our shepherding of others. To shepherd according to God is to shepherd according to what God is in His attributes. God is love, light, holiness, and righteousness…We must shepherd the young ones, the weak ones, and the backsliding ones according to these four attributes. Then we will be good shepherds.
19我们若要享受生命,并将生命供应别人,就必须牧养他们。真正生命的供应乃是借着访问人、接触人而牧养人(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第五册,一五四至一五五页)。
19If we want to enjoy life and minister life to others, we must shepherd them. The real ministering of life is shepherding by visiting and contacting people. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 5, “The Vital Groups,” pp. 114-115)

Today's Reading
20你可能说看见了身体,却一点实际都没有。你若真看见了身体,你就会关心那些较软弱的人。
20You may say that you have seen the Body, but you may not have anything practical. If you have truly seen the Body, you will be concerned for the weaker ones.
21在召会生活中我们需要照顾幼嫩的、软弱的以及不俊美的。我们千万不能有等级;刚强的人不应该形成一种特殊的阶级。……长老们应当认为自己是小弟兄。这就是我们从来不用“长老”作头衔,或者称呼某某长老的原因。同样的,我们不应当有所谓领头姊妹的观念。不错,我们在实际上与实行上都有领头的人,但我们不应该有头衔或地位的感觉。……牧养的需要太大了。不要盼望召会生活中的每一个人都是属灵大汉。反之,正常的召会生活是一个大家庭,其中有祖父母、幼嫩的、软弱的甚至生病的。当所有的圣徒都得着了照顾,我们就有了美丽的召会生活。
21In the church life we need to take care of the little ones, the weaker ones, and the uncomely ones. We must not have any rank; the strong ones should not form themselves into a special class of their own…The elders should regard themselves as little brothers. This is the reason we never use the term elder as a title or speak of Elder So-and-so. In like manner, we should not have the concept of so-called leading sisters. Yes, we have leading ones both in reality and in practicality, but we should not have titles or the consciousness of position…There is a great need for shepherding. Do not expect that everyone in the church life will be a spiritual giant. On the contrary, the proper church life is a big family that includes grandparents, young ones, weak ones, and even sick ones. When all the saints are cared for, we shall have a beautiful church life.
22长老们的主要责任是牧养。在彼前五章一节,彼得称他自己是同作长老的。彼得是一个地方的长老,他书信的对象有些是其他地方的长老。“同作长老的”这辞非常有意义。这含示不同地方的长老们,应该彼此同工,同作长老。我们是牧养一群羊,而不是许多群羊,因为主耶稣只有一群羊。……众召会的长老乃是同作长老的,主耶稣是大牧人。牧养是长老的主要功用。
22The main responsibility of elders…is shepherding. In 1 Peter 5:1 Peter refers to himself as a fellow elder. Peter was an elder in one locality, whereas some of those addressed in his Epistle were elders in other localities. The term fellow elder is very meaningful. It implies that although the elders are in different localities, they should work together with one another as fellow elders. We are shepherding one flock, not many flocks, because the Lord Jesus has just one flock…The elders in all the churches are the fellow elders, and the Lord Jesus is the head Shepherd. Shepherding is the main function of the elders.
23根据以弗所四章,牧人和教师是同一类。这表示凡要作牧人的,必须也是教师。同样的,一个好教师也是一个牧人。……正如母亲借着喂养孩子、照顾孩子来牧养他们,所以我们也需要牧养神的儿女。例如,有些人需要帮助,认识召会立场。要使他们清楚召会的立场,就需要有人借教导来牧养他们。这个工作由谁来作呢?我们众人都该起来作。不管我们有多少位长老,他们仍不够填满这个空缺。为着牧养的需要,所有的弟兄姊妹都要尽功用(李常受文集一九七七年第二册,三八至四一页)。
23According to Ephesians 4, the shepherds and the teachers are one category. This indicates that anyone who would be a shepherd must also be a teacher. Likewise, a good teacher is also a shepherd…Just as a mother shepherds her children by feeding them and caring for them, so we also need to shepherd God’s children. For example, some need help in knowing the church ground. In order for them to be clear about the ground of the church, someone needs to shepherd them by teaching them. Who will do this work? We all must rise up to do it. No matter how many elders we may have, they are not sufficient to fill the gap. For the shepherding, there is the need for all the brothers and sisters to function. (CWWL, 1977, vol. 2, “All Ages for the Lord’s Testimony,” pp. 28-31)

今日要点
25主题:借着按着神牧养,带进基督身体的建造
25
26引经:彼前五2彼后一4
26
271.按着神牧养的意义和条件:
27
28A.我们要接续昨天周五所说,按着神牧养的条件,还包括了我们必须被神构成,使我们能够在生命和性情上,但不在神格上与神一样,而使我们能够活神,神的经纶是要将祂自己作到我们里面,使我们可以接受祂作我们的生命和生命的供应,好活祂自己,我们现今正有分于神圣的生命和神圣的性情,使我们能在人性里活神。
28
29B.我们还要代表神,尽代理之神的功用,使神在地上得着一个代表祂并执行祂旨意的人,就像摩西、撒母耳和以利沙一样,最后,按着神牧养,就是将神供应人,三一神已经具体化身在基督里,并实化为那灵,这是我们所供应的神,为此,我们要讲说恩典、真理、灵、生命的话,供应那作我们里面之经过过程的神。
29
302.人人都牧养,身体得建造:
30
31A.在彼前五2说,『务要牧养你们中间神的群羊,按着神监督他们,不是出于勉强,乃是出于甘心;不是为着卑鄙的利益,乃是出于热切』,我们可能在道理上有神,却不一定活神,当我们与神是一,就成为神,就能活神,彼得称他自己是同作长老的,他按着神牧养,也嘱咐其他长老们要这样牧养。
31
32B.长老们的主要责任乃是牧养,根据以弗所四章,牧人和教师是同一类的恩赐者,这表示作牧人的,也必须是教师,牧养就是教导,教导也就是最好的牧养,一个好教师必定是一个好的牧人,长老该领头起来作牧养的工作,众人也都该起来有分牧养,为着牧养的需要,所有弟兄姊妹都要起来尽牧养的功用,使基督的身体得着建造。
32
33应用:我们若要享受生命,并将生命供应人,就必须牧养他们,借着我们走出去拜访人、接触人,而能牧养人,使人能够认识召会生活,甚至看见召会的立场,这不是光长老才能做,我们人人都能对人有牧养。
