16帐幕及其器物都引到神的安息日,……引到享受神所定意并作成的。这意思是,帐幕及其一切的器物都将我们引到安息。祭物是为着使我们安息的。我们若没有到燔祭坛这里来经历基督作祭物,就没有安息;反之,我们会有定罪和控告。照样,我们若没有到陈设饼桌子这里,我们就会饥饿,得不着饱足,这也指明我们没有安息。我们若没有来到灯台这里,就没有什么光;我们会在黑暗里,而黑暗不会给我们安息。……我们若没有来到幔内的约柜,没有来到香坛这里,也不会有安息。凡与神的居所有关的事,都将我们引到一件事—主的安息日及其安息与舒畅。因此,帐幕及其器物将我们引到享受神所定意并作成的。阿利路亚,在召会生活中,我们是在帐幕里,而帐幕将我们引到安息,引到享受神所定意并作成的!
16All the tabernacle and its furniture lead to the Sabbath of God,…to the enjoyment of what God has purposed and done. This means that the tabernacle and all its furniture lead us into rest. The offerings are for us to rest. If we do not come to the altar of burnt offering to experience Christ as the offerings, we will not have rest. Instead, we will have condemnation and accusation. Likewise, if we do not come to the table of the bread of the Presence, we will be hungry and not have satisfaction. This is another indication that we do not have rest. If we do not come to the lampstand, we will not have any light. We will be in darkness, and darkness will not give us rest…If we do not come to the Ark within the veil and to the incense altar, we will not have rest. Everything related to God’s dwelling place leads us to one matter—to the Sabbath with its rest and refreshment of the Lord. Therefore, the tabernacle with its furniture leads us to the enjoyment of what God has purposed and done. Hallelujah, in the church life we are in the tabernacle, and the tabernacle leads us to rest, to the enjoyment of God’s purpose and of what He has done!
