5帖前一1 保罗、西拉和提摩太,写信给在父神和主耶稣基督里,帖撒罗尼迦人的召会:愿恩典与平安归与你们。
51 Thes. 1:1 Paul and Silvanus and Timothy to the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace.
6林前一2 写信给在哥林多神的召会,就是给在基督耶稣里被圣别,蒙召的圣徒,同着所有在各处呼求我们主耶稣基督之名的人;祂是他们的,也是我们的。
61 Cor. 1:2 To the church of God which is in Corinth, to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, the called saints, with all those who call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, who is theirs and ours.
7有人读到在三一神里,帖撒罗尼迦人的召会,可能会说,“你们宣称一章一节指明召会是在三一神里。这节经文的确提到父和子—主耶稣基督,但是并没有说那灵。这节经文如果说到三一神,那灵在哪里?”这里这个例子给我们看见,圣经上许多没有说的话,即使不比说出来的话更重要,至少也是同样重要。我们接触圣徒的时候,时常会有一些话不说,这些话也许比我们对他们说出来的话更重要。保罗为什么不说“在父神、主耶稣基督和圣灵里,帖撒罗尼迦人的召会”?
7When some read concerning the church of the Thessalonians in the Triune God, they may say, “You claim that 1 Thessalonians 1:1 indicates that the church is in the Triune God. Yes, this verse mentions the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son, but nothing is said concerning the Spirit. If this verse speaks of the Triune God, where is the Spirit?” Here we have one of the many instances where what the Bible does not say is just as important as what it does say, if not more so. Often in our contact with the saints, we may refrain from saying something to them. This may be more important than what we do say to them. Why did Paul not say “the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father, the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit”?
8我们可以确定,帖前一章一节所说的神乃是三一神。我们如何知道?因为保罗首先提到父—三一神的第一者。只要有第一,就会有第二者子,也会有第三者那灵。保罗说到父的这个事实,有力地指明他所想的是三一神。不仅如此,“主耶稣基督”这话也含示那灵。“父神”与“主耶稣基督”都含示那灵。因此,一章一节含示那灵,是不言而喻的(帖撒罗尼迦前书生命读经,六八页)。
8Be assured that the very God spoken of in 1:1 is the Triune God. We know this by the fact that Paul first mentions the Father, the first of the Trinity. Whenever we have the first, we also have the second, the Son, and also the third, the Spirit. The very fact that Paul speaks of the Father is a strong indication that he is thinking of the Triune God. Moreover, the expression the Lord Jesus Christ implies the Spirit. The expressions God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ both imply the Spirit. Therefore, in 1:1 the Spirit is implied and understood. (Life-study of 1 Thessalonians, p. 56)

9我们在父神和主耶稣基督里,含示我们也在那灵里。因此,帖前一章一节含示三一神。这节经文指明,召会是在三一神里的。
9To be in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ implies that we are also in the Spirit. Hence, in 1 Thessalonians 1:1 we have the Triune God implied. This verse indicates that the church is in the Triune God.
10说召会是神的,或是基督的,相当简单。但宣告召会是在父神和主耶稣基督里,就深奥多了。譬如,说我们是属于某一个人的,这是一回事;但说我们是在那个人里面,就完全是另一回事。对我们人来说,我们可能属于一个人,但我们不可能真在那个人里面。召会能在三一神里只有一条路,就是生机的并出于生命的路。我们对生命的路了解得不够,但是神却非常了解。不仅如此,只有神能以生命的方式来作事。神以生机、生命的方式,使召会能在三一神里面。
10It is a rather simple matter to say that the church is of God or of Christ. But it is deeper and more profound to declare that the church is in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ. For example, it is one thing to say that we are of a particular person. However, it is altogether another matter to claim to be in that person. Humanly speaking, it is possible to be of someone, but it is not possible to be literally in that one. Only in a way that is organic and of life can the church be in the Triune God. We do not adequately understand the way of life, but God does understand it in full. Furthermore, only God can do something in the way of life. In a way that is organic and of life, God has made it possible for the church to be in the Triune God.
11如果召会仅仅是属于神的,神只要是我们的创造者就够了。但是召会要在神里面,神就必须成为我们的父,我们需要与神有生命的关系。照样,召会要在主耶稣基督里,基督之于我们就必须是主,是耶稣。
11For the church to be merely of God, it is sufficient that God be merely our Creator. But for the church to be in God, God must become our Father, and we need to have a life relationship with Him. Likewise, for the church to be in the Lord Jesus Christ, Christ must be the Lord and Jesus to us.
12新约并没有说召会是在神里,这一点是很重要的。帖前一章一节告诉我们,召会是在父神和主耶稣基督里的。这启示召会是在三一神里,这与召会只在神里的说法不同。按照圣经,我们找不到召会只在神里这一回事,但是却有在三一神里的召会。
12It is important to realize that the New Testament does not say that the church is in God. First Thessalonians 1:1 tells us that the church is in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. This is different from speaking of the church as merely in God, for it reveals that the church is in the Triune God. According to the Bible, there is no such thing as the church merely in God, but there is the church in the Triune God.
13现在我们需要仔细来看神与三一神的区别。我们如果只说神,就是把神看作好像没有经过过程一样。但三一神是指经过过程的神。创世记一章一节说,“起初神创造诸天与地。”我们在这一节里看不见经过过程的神,也就是说,我们看不见父、子、灵。但是新约却有三一神完满的启示(帖撒罗尼迦前书生命读经,六八至七○页)。
13Now we need to consider carefully the difference between God and the Triune God. To speak only of God is to regard Him as if He had not been processed. However, the Triune God denotes God in His process. Genesis 1:1 says, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” In this verse we cannot see the processed God; that is, we cannot see the Father, the Son, and the Spirit. But in the New Testament we have a full revelation of the Triune God. (Life-study of 1 Thessalonians, pp. 56-58)

今日要点
15主题:召会不仅是地方召会,更是在三一神里的召会
15
16引经:帖前一1林前一2
16
171.召会是在三一神里的召会:
17
18A.在帖前一1说,『保罗、西拉和提摩太,写信给在父神和主耶稣基督里,帖撒罗尼迦人的召会:愿恩典与平安归与你们」,有人会说,你们宣称这一节指明召会是在三一神里,这节经文的确提到了父和子,哪里说到那灵?我们需要看见,这里提到神圣三一的第一者-父,只要有第一者,就会有第二者-子,也必定会有第三者-灵,三者有分别却不分开。
18
19B.保罗说到父的这个事实,有力的指明他所想的是三一神,不仅如此,主耶稣基督这话也含示那灵,父神与主耶稣基督都含示那灵,因此,这一节是说到三一神,这是不言而喻的,所以,召会是在父神和主耶稣基督里,就是在三一神里,这含示我们也在那灵里,因此,召会不仅是帖撒罗尼迦人的召会,也是在三一神里的召会。
19
202.召会是以生机、生命的方式,在三一神里面:
20
21a.保罗在林前一2这样说,『写信给在哥林多神的召会,就是给在基督耶稣里被圣别,蒙召的圣徒,同着所有在各处呼求我们主耶稣基督之名的人;祂是他们的,也是我们的』,他这样说,乃因哥林多召会有许多情形和难处,但仍是属神的,但保罗却对初信的帖撒罗尼迦人说,召会是在三一神里的,这指出,神必须是我们的父,我们必须与神有生命的关系,召会在主里,基督之于我们就必须是主。
21
22B.说召会是属神的,或是基督的,相对简单,但召会是在父神和主耶稣基督里,就深奥多了,我们属于一个人,跟我们在那人里面,这有极大的差别,召会在三一神里,说出这是生命、生机的,召会乃是以生机、生命的方式,在三一神里面。
22
23应用:虽然我们说,三一神不是为着我们的研究,而是为着我们的享受和经历的,但我们仍需要学习正确的陈明三一神,好避免落入两种异端的教训中,好保守我们对三一神的经历是正确的。
