創世記結晶讀經(二二): 神在基督里複製我們成神人

約十二 24『我實實在在的告訴你們，一粒麥子不落在地里死了，仍舊是一粒；若是
死了，就結出許多子粒來。』
羅八 29『因為神所豫知的人，他也豫定他們模成神兒子的形像，使他兒子在許多弟
兄中作長子。』

    根據聖經，神的形像與他的複製有關。創世記一章的『形像』，是為著神得以
複製、得以『翻版』在人身上。這就是說，人這樣被造，是使人能成為神的複製，
神的翻版。…神造人的目的既是要人成為他的複製，而且這目的乃是用『形像』一
辭來指明，我們就可以接著說，『形像』一辭含示盛裝神的度量。人若沒有盛裝神
的度量，怎能成為神的複製，神的翻版？人要成為神的翻版，就必須有盛裝神之所
是的度量或能力（路加福音生命讀經，五五九至五六○頁）。

    神真正的嗜好是要在全地許多國家得著他的複製。這樣的複製使神喜樂，因為
他的複製看起來像他，說話像他，生活像他。神在這複製里，他的複製有他的生命、
他的性情和他的構成。這是何等大的事！（歷代志生命讀經，一三頁）

    聖經里對於神和人的關係，有一個奧秘的思想。神的心意是要成為與人一樣，
並使人與他一樣。這意思是說，神的目的是要將他自己與人調在一起，因而使他自
己像人，也使人像他。主耶穌乃是神人；他是完整的神和完全的人。我們也可以說，
他是人而神者。我們今天所敬拜的，乃是人而神者。不僅如此，成為像摩西一樣屬
神的人（申三三 1，書十四 6，詩九十標題），就是成為神人，成為與神調和的人。
神喜悅所有蒙他揀選並救贖的人，都成為神人（以西結書生命讀經，一五五至一五
六頁）。

    我們需要神在基督里將他自己作到我們裡面，作我們的生命、性情和構成。結
果，我們不僅成為合乎神心的人─我們在生命和性情上（但不是在神格上）就是神。
…為要成就這事，神就在基督里成為人，並且經過一些過程，使這人能被標出為神
聖的。在復活里，他被標出為神的長子。在復活里，並藉著復活，神的長子基督成
了賜生命的靈，現今進入我們裡面，將他自己當作生命分賜到我們裡面，作我們內
里的構成，使我們成為神人，就像他自己一樣。他是神成為人，我們是人成為神─
在生命和性情上，但不是在神格上（撒母耳記生命讀經，二○四頁）。

    我(李)的負擔就是要你們清楚看見，神的經綸、計畫就是要把他自己作成人，
又把我們這些他所造的人作成神，叫他自己『人化』，叫我們眾人『神化』。結果，
他和我們，我們和他，都成了神人。所以作好人、作屬靈人、作聖人是不彀的，今
天神所要的不是這些，他所要的乃是神人。不要盼望修改自己，因為神不要你作好
人，他要你作神人。他是你的生命和一切，目的就是要你能彰顯他，活出他來。

    我們猶如他的一張照片，有他的形像，但沒有他的生命。等到我們重生以後，
我們這張照片就成了『真人』，有他的生命、性情，和他一樣。他是神化人，我們
是人化神，結果二人成為一人，都是神人。這是聖經神聖的啟示（關於神聖分賜更
深的研讀，四五頁）。

John 12:24 "Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless the grain of wheat falls
into the ground and dies,   it abides alone; but if it dies, it bears much
fruit."

Rom. 8:29 "Because those whom He foreknew, He also predestinated to be conformed
to the  image of His Son, that He might be the Firstborn among many brothers.
"

    According to the Bible the image of God is related to His duplication.
In Genesis 1 “image” is for God to be duplicated, to be “copied” in man.
This means that man was created in such a way that he could become God's
duplication, His copy....Since God created man for the purpose of man's
becoming His duplication, and since this purpose is indicated by the use
of the word image, we may go on to say that the word image implies the capacity
to contain God. If man did not have the capacity to contain God, how could
he become God's duplication, His copy? In order for man to be a copy of
God, man must have the capacity or ability to contain what God is.
(Life-study of Luke, p. 486)

    God's real hobby is to have His reproduction in many nations around
the globe. Such a reproduction makes God happy because His reproduction
looks like Him, speaks like Him, and lives like Him. God is in this reproduction,
 and His reproduction has His life, His nature, and His constitution. What
a great matter this is! (Life-study of 1 & 2 Chronicles, p. 11)

    In the Bible there is a mysterious thought concerning the relationship
between God and man. God's desire is to become the same as man is and to
make man the same as He is. This means that God's intention is to mingle
Himself with man and thereby make Himself like man and make man like Him.
The Lord Jesus is the God-man; He is the complete God and the perfect man.
We may also say that He is the Man-God. The One whom we worship today is
the Man-God. Furthermore, to be a man of God, as Moses was (Deut. 33:1;
Josh. 14:6; Psa. 90, title), is to be a God-man, a man who is mingled with
God. It is a delight to God that all His chosen and redeemed people would
be God-men. (Life-study of Ezekiel, p. 124)

    We need God to work Himself in Christ into us as our life, our nature,
and our constitution. As a result, we are not simply a man according to
God's heart─we are God in life and in nature but not in the Godhead....In
order to accomplish this, God in Christ became a man and went through some
processes that this man could be designated something divine. In resurrection
He was designated the firstborn Son of God. In and through resurrection
Christ, the firstborn Son of God, became the life-giving Spirit, who now
enters into us to impart, to dispense, Himself as life into our being to
be our inner constitution, to make us a God-man just like Him. He was God
becoming man, and we are man becoming God in life and in nature but not
in the Godhead. (Life-study of 1 & 2 Samuel, p. 168)

    My burden is to show you clearly that God's economy and plan is to make
Himself man and to make us, His created beings, “God,” so that He is “man-ized”
and we are “God-ized.” In the end, He and we, we and He, all become God-men.
Hence, it is not enough for us to be good men, spiritual men, or holy men.
These are not what God is after. What God wants today is God-men. God does
not expect us to improve ourselves, because God is not after our being good
men. He wants us to be God-men. He is our life and everything to us for
the purpose that we would express Him and live Him out.

    We are like a picture, which has His image, but is without His life.
After we are regenerated, this picture becomes the “real” person, having
His life and nature, and being the same as He is. He is God “man-ized,”
and we are man “God-ized.” In the end, the two become one, both being God-men.
 This is the divine revelation of the Bible. (A Deeper Study of the Divine
Dispensing, p. 54)
