生命的交通 约壹 4章1节 | 4:1 | 亲爱的,1一切的灵,你们不可都信,总要2试证1那些灵是出于神的不是;因为有许多3假申言者已经出来,进到世界里了。 | 4章1节 注1 | 1~6节乃是插进的话,警告信徒要辨别诸灵,(因为前面三24提到那灵;我们所以知道神住在我们里面,是由于那灵,)使他们能认出假申言者来。二18~23曾发出类似的警告。一切的灵和那些灵这二辞,乃指由真理的灵所推动之申言者的灵,(林前十四32,)或由谬妄的灵所发动之假申言者的灵;因此需要借着试证,辨别那些灵是出于神的不是。 | | 请我们先祷告 | 主,将你自己向我们敞开。我们向你敞开自己,也彼此敞开,赐给我们敞开的交通,自由、舒畅、在灵里的交通,胜过各种拦阻的交通! | 一 | 你名似膏香,你爱比酒美, | 你若来吸引,有谁不跟随? | | 我们若跟随羊群的脚踪, | 我们必进入你爱的交通。 | 八 | 你是我生命,我是你活像, | 爱情的联结,如死之坚强, | | 无何能消灭,无何能替换 | 直到你显现,在那香草山。 | 今日经节及注解: 约壹三19~四6 | 重点经节 | | 我们将所看见并听见的,也传与你们,使你们也可以与我们有交通;而且我们的交通,又是与父并与祂儿子耶稣基督所有的。 但我们若在光中行,如同神在光中,就彼此有交通,祂儿子耶稣的血也洗净我们一切的罪。 | 生命供应 | 电的流通是神圣生命的交通很好的说明。电从发电厂流到建筑物里面,电流就将发电厂联于建筑物。不仅如此,在建筑物某个房间点了灯的天花板上,个别的灯藉着电流的流通就彼此相联。没有电流的流通,天花板上的灯是分开的;但藉着电的流通,这些灯就被带进彼此的“交通”里,因为它们都在同一个电流里面。这个例子,说明使徒和信徒在神圣生命里一同享受交通的事实。 当我们在神圣的交通里,我们就在光中;当我们在光中,我们就被光所暴露。神圣的光比X光强多了。这光把我们这人里面凡是不对的地方都暴露出来。我们在光中行,并在光中实行实际时,这光就照在我们里面,照在我们身上,并照透我们。我们被这照耀所暴露,就看见我们在许多事上都不对。我们可能看见我们在思想、情感、动机和意图上是不对的。我们也可能看见,我们与某些弟兄姊妹是不对的。因着我们这样被暴露,我们的良心就被定罪。为要对付我们良心里这样的定罪,我们需要主血的洗净。乃是当我们在交通里并在光中,我们才看见自己的失败、错误、过犯、不纯洁的动机、以及邪恶的意图。但就在这个时候,主耶稣的血洗净我们每一个罪。 在[约壹]一章一至七节里有四件事─永远的生命、永远生命的交通、神圣的光、耶稣的血─形成一个循环,是我们在属灵生活里所该经历的。首先我们有永远的生命,在这生全里我们有交通。交通带进光,在光的照耀下我们经历到血的洗净。然后血带给我们更多的生命;随着更多的生命,我们就有更多的交通。然后随着更多的交通,我们就有更多的光,更多血的洗净。这个生命、交通、光、血的循环一再的重复,我们就在生命里长大,直到成熟。(约翰壹书生命读经,第五三,八三,八五至八六页。) | 问答: | 1、 什么是神圣生命的交通?(参读 约壹一3注3第一段。) 2、 请说明属灵生活的循环。(参读 约壹一7注4第二段。) 3、 为什么不要爱世界?(参读 约壹二15注2。) | Let's Pray: | Lord, we open ourselves to You and to one another. Grant us an open fellowship, a fellowship that is so free, so refreshing, in the spirit, a fellowship that overcomes all kinds of frustrations. | | 1. Thy name is sweet as ointment pourèd forth; Better Thy love than wine, O draw Thou me! If we the footsteps follow of the flock, Entered Thy fellowship of love we'll be. 8. Thou art my life, and I Thine image real; Love in such union is as death most strong, Ne'er can it be destroyed or e'er replaced Till Thou on spices mountains come ere long. | Today's Verses and Footnotes: 1 John 3:19-4:6 | Key Verses: | | That which we have seen and heard we report also to you that you also may have fellowship with us, and indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. | | But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from every sin. | Life Supply: | The flowing of electricity is a good illustration of the fellowship of the divine life. Electricity flows from the power plant into a building. The electrical current connects the power plant to the building. Furthermore, in a lighted ceiling of a particular room in the building, the individual lights are connected to each other by the flow of the electrical current. Apart from the flow of the current, the lights in the ceiling are separate. But through the flow of electricity, the lights are brought into a “fellowship” with one another, for they are all in the one flow of electricity. This is an illustration of the fact that the apostles and the believers enjoy fellowship together in the divine life. When we are in the divine fellowship, we are in the light, and when we are in the light, we are exposed by the light. The divine light is much stronger than an x-ray. This light exposes whatever is wrong in our being. As we walk in the light and practice the reality in the light, the light shines within us, upon us, and through us. Exposed by this shining, we realize that we are wrong in many matters. We may see that we are wrong in our thoughts, emotions, motives, and intentions. We may also see that we are wrong with certain brothers and sisters. Because we are exposed in this way, our conscience is condemned. In order to deal with this condemnation in our conscience, we need the cleansing of the Lord’s blood. It is when we are in the fellowship and under the light that we see our failures, mistakes, wrongdoings, impure motives, and evil intentions. But at this very juncture, the blood of the Lord Jesus cleanses us from every sin. In 1:1-7 we see a cycle in our spiritual life formed of four crucial things—the eternal life, the fellowship of the eternal life, the divine light, and the blood of Jesus the Son of God. Eternal life issues in the fellowship of the divine life, the fellowship of eternal life brings in the divine light, and the divine light increases the need of the blood of Jesus the Son of God so that we may have more eternal life. The more we have of eternal life, the more of its fellowship it brings to us. The more fellowship of the divine life we enjoy, the more divine light we receive. The more divine light we receive, the more we participate in the cleansing of the blood of Jesus. Such a cycle brings us onward in the growth of the divine life until we reach its maturity.
