15旧约的帐幕给我们看见,三一神乃是给我们享受的。帐幕有三部分—外院、圣所和至圣所。在外院有神的公义,在圣所有神的圣别,在至圣所有神的荣耀。……在至圣所里乃是神的自己。见证的柜就是神的具体化身,柜内有隐藏的吗哪,表征基督是我们的享受。在神圣启示的结语里,新耶路撒冷称为神的帐幕(启二一2~3)。这帐幕是神在这宇宙中一切工作的总结、终极和中心的结果。包含在这帐幕里的,有外院里的称义,圣所里的圣别,和至圣所里的得荣。罗马书……包含称义、圣别、得荣的步骤,以履行神公义、圣别、荣耀的要求。第一步的称义……从一章一节至五章十一节……告诉我们,我们是有罪的,并且在神的定罪之下,但借着耶稣的血,我们已经得称为义。五章十二节至八章十三节说到圣别,八章十四至三十九节说到得荣。圣别的意思是与神调和。……神不仅称义我们,也将我们放在基督里面。神使我们与基督联合,将我们接枝在基督里面,也使我们与基督成为一。我们现今是在基督里面。……基督是灵,而这灵乃是生命之灵〔2〕。祂在你里面,你也在祂里面;你必须学习不凭你自己,乃凭祂并在祂里面活着。凭生命之灵,并在生命之灵里面活着,就是在圣别的过程之中。圣别的意思就是与神圣的性情调和。只有基督在祂神圣的性情里是圣的。八章十四至三十九节告诉我们,在我们称义并圣别之后,还要得荣耀。 15The tabernacle of the Old Testament shows us that the Triune God is for our enjoyment. There are three parts to the tabernacle—the outer court, the Holy Place, and the Holy of Holies. In the outer court is the righteousness of God, in the Holy Place is the holiness of God, and in the Holy of Holies is the glory of God…In the Holy of Holies is God Himself. The Ark of the Testimony is the very embodiment of God, and inside the Ark is the hidden manna, which signifies that God is our enjoyment. At the conclusion of the divine revelation, the New Jerusalem is called the tabernacle of God (Rev. 21:2-3). This tabernacle is the total, ultimate, and central outcome of all the work of God in this universe. The book of Romans…includes the steps of justification, sanctification, and glorification to meet the requirements of God’s righteousness, holiness, and glory. The first step of justification…from Romans 1:1 to 5:11…tells us that we are sinful and under God’s condemnation, but through the blood of Jesus, we have been justified. From 5:12 through 8:13 is sanctification, and 8:14-39 talks about glorification…To be sanctified means to be mingled with God…God has not only justified us but has also put us into Christ. God has identified us with Christ, has grafted us into Christ, and has made Christ one with us. We are now in Christ…Christ is the Spirit, and this Spirit is the Spirit of life [v. 2]. He is in you, you are in Him, and you have to learn to live not by yourself but by Him and in Him. To live by and in the Spirit of life is to be in the process of sanctification. Sanctification means to be mingled with the divine nature. Only Christ in His divine nature is holy. Romans 8:14-39 tells us that after we are justified and sanctified, we will be glorified.
