保罗的完成职事(一):看见异象

2013年国殇节特会信息

1 『我…作了…执事，要完成神的话』─西一25：
2 神的话就是神的启示，在新约以前并未完成。
3 在新约时，使徒们，特别是使徒保罗，在神的奥秘（基督），以及基督的奥秘
（教会）这两点上，完成神的话─25 节，二2，弗三3 ～ 4。

4 歌罗西一章二十六节的『奥秘』与二十五节『神的话』是同位语：
5 这奥秘是关乎基督与教会，就是头与身体─弗五32。
6 借着使徒保罗将这奥秘揭开，神的话，就是神圣的启示，就得以完成了─西一25。

7 在关于基督作神的奥秘，以及教会作基督的奥秘这启示上，保罗完成了神的话，
将神的经纶完满的启示给我们─弗一10，三9，提前一4。
8 今天在我们的经历上，完成神的话就是在我们的日常生活中主观的经历基督，使
正当的教会生活得以出现，使三一神在基督里得着彰显─加二20，弗三17 上，一22 
～ 23。

9 我们若要成为完成神话语的人，就必须供应基督作赐生命的灵，并且与教会站在
一起，在正确的地方立场上，作基督活的彰显；这就是我们的负担、我们的职事和
我们的争战─林前十五45 下，一2，十二12 ～ 13、27。
10 『主阿，你是谁？』─徒二二8：

11 『…神，欣然乐意将他儿子启示在我里面』─加一15 下～ 16 上：
12 神的心愿，是要将他的儿子启示在我们里面，使我们认识他，接受他作我们的生
命（约十七3，三16），成为神的儿子（一12，加四5 ～ 6）。
13 没有甚么比神的儿子活的人位揭开、启示在我们里面，更使神喜悦─一15 下～
 16 上，林后三14 ～18，四3 ～ 6。

14圣经的中心点乃是神的儿子这活的人位；他是三一神的具体化身，实化为包罗万
有的灵，在我们的灵里，使我们享受他，有分於他的丰富，并且活他─林前十五45 
下，林后三17，腓一19，加六18。

15 『你为甚么逼迫我？…我就是你所逼迫的耶稣』─徒九4 下、5 下：
16 这里的『我』是团体的，包括主耶稣和他所有的信徒。

17 这乃是全宇宙中独特的启示，借此扫罗开始看见，主耶稣和他的信徒是一个伟大
的人─那奇妙的 『我』。
18 这团体的『我』的启示必定使扫罗印象深刻，影响他将来关于基督与教会是神极
大奥秘的职事，并为他将来的职事立下了稳固的根基─弗五32。

19 『我向你显现，正是要选定你作执事和见证人，将你所看见我的事，和我将要显
现给你的事，见证出 来』─徒二六16：
20 执事是为着职事，见证人是为着见证：
21 职事主要的与工作有关，与执事的所作有关─十三2，十四26。
22 见证与人有关，与见证人的所是有关─一8，二三11。

23 凡基督向保罗启示的事，莫不是以他自己作那些事的内容；因此，在保罗所看见
的一切异象中，他看见了基督；主指明他要向保罗启示更多的事，在那些事中，主
自己也要向他显现─二二14 ～ 15，弗一17。

24 『我们祖宗的神豫先选定了你，叫你认识他的旨意』（徒二二14）；神的旨意是
要为基督得着一个身 体，作他的丰满，他的彰显─罗十二2、5，弗一5、9、11、22 
～ 23。

25 『主阿，我当作甚么？』─徒二二10：
26 『起来，进城去，你所当作的事，必有人告诉你』（九6）；这与扫罗对基督身
体的认识有关─西一24。

27 『叫他们的眼睛得开，从黑暗转入光中，从撒但权下转向神，又因信入我，得蒙
赦罪，并在一切圣别的人中得着基业』─徒二六18：
28 从黑暗转入光中，就是从黑暗转移到光里面；从撒但权下转向神，就是从撒但的
权势下，转移到神里面─18 节上，西一13：

29 撒但的权势就是撒但的国，这国属黑暗─太十二26，约十二31。
30 转向神就是转向神的权柄，就是神属光的国─三5，约壹一5。
31 赦罪是新约禧年一切福分的基础─徒二六18 下。

32 我们的眼睛得开，从撒但权下转向神，结果就得着基业；这基业是三一神自己并
他所有的、所作成的以及为他赎民所要作的一切─18 节下，西一12，弗一13 ～ 14，
彼前一4。

33 神圣的基业乃是在一切因信入基督而得圣别的人当中；这圣别是地位上的，也是
性质上的─徒二六18下，太二三17、19，罗六19、22。

34 『我…没有违背从天上来的异象』（徒二六19）；在这异象中，使徒看见关于三
一神的神圣事物如何分赐到他所拣选、救赎、变化的人里面，为着按照神永远的经
纶建造基督的身体─罗八11，弗四16，一10，三9。


2013 Memorial Day Conference:THE COMPLETING MINISTRY OF PAUL
Scripture Reading: Col. 1:25-26; Acts 9:4-6; 22:14; 26:16, 18-19

1. "I became a minister…to complete the word of God"─Col. 1:25:
2. The word of God is the divine revelation, which had not been completed 
before the New Testament   was written.
3. In the New Testament the apostles, especially the apostle Paul,completed 
the word of God in regard to the mystery of God, which is Christ, and the 
mystery of Christ, which is the church─v. 25;  2:2;Eph. 3:3-4.
  
4. In Colossians 1:26 the mystery is in apposition to the word of God in 
verse 25:
5. This mystery concerns Christ and the church, the Head and the Body─Eph. 
5:32.
6. The unveiling of this mystery through the apostle Paul is the completing 
of the word of God as the divine revelation─Col. 1:25.
   
7. Concerning the revelation of Christ as the mystery of God and the church 
as the mystery of Christ, Paul completed the word of God and revealed to 
us God’s economy in a full way─Eph. 1:10; 3:9; 1   Tim. 1:4.

8. In our experience today, to complete the word of God is to experience 
Christ subjectively in our daily living so that the proper church life may 
come forth for the expression of the Triune God in Christ─Gal.2:20; Eph. 
3:17a; 1:22-23.
9. If we would be those who complete the word of God, we must minister Christ 
as the life-giving Spirit and stand with the church as the living expression 
of Christ on the proper ground of locality; this  is our burden, our ministry,
 and our warfare─1 Cor. 15:45b; 1:2;12:12-13, 27.

10. "Who are You, Lord?"─Acts 22:8:
11. "When it pleased God…to reveal His Son in me"─Gal. 1:15a, 16a:
12. The desire of God’s heart is to reveal His Son in us so that we may 
know Him, receive Him as our life (John 17:3; 3:16), and become the sons 
of God (1:12; Gal. 4:5-6).
      
13. Nothing is more pleasing to God than the unveiling, the revelation, 
of the living person of the Son  of God in us─1:15a,16a; 2 Cor. 3:14-18; 
4:3-6.
14. The focal point of the Bible is the living person of the Son of God, 
who is the embodiment of the Triune God realized as the all-inclusive Spirit 
in our spirit for us to enjoy Him, partake of His  riches, and live Him─
1 Cor. 15:45b; 2 Cor. 3:17; Phil. 1:19;Gal. 6:18.

15. "Why are you persecuting Me?…I am Jesus, whom you persecute"─Acts 
9:4b, 5b:
16. This "Me"is corporate, comprising Jesus the Lord and all His believers.
17. This was a unique revelation in the universe, for by it Saul began to 
see that the Lord Jesus and His believers are one great person─the wonderful 
"Me."

18. The revelation of the corporate “Me” must have impressed and affected 
Saul for his future ministry  concerning Christ and the church as the great 
mystery of God and laid a solid foundation for his  future ministry─Eph. 
5:32.
19. "I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you as a minister 
and a witness both of the things in which you have seen Me and of the things 
in which I will appear to you”─Acts 26:16:
20. A minister is for the ministry, and a witness is for the testimony:

21. The ministry is related mainly to the work, to what a minister does─
13:2; 14:26.
22. A testimony is related to the person, to what a witness is─1:8;23:11.
23. Christ did not reveal things to Paul without Himself as the content 
of those things; thus, in all the visions Paul saw Christ;the Lord indicated 
that He would reveal more things to Paul,and in those  things the Lord Himself 
would appear to him─22:14-15; Eph. 1:17.
   
24. "The God of our fathers has previously appointed you to know His will" 
(Acts 22:14); the will of God  is to obtain a Body for Christ to be His 
fullness, His expression─Rom. 12:2, 5; Eph. 1:5, 9, 11, 22-23.
25. "What shall I do, Lord?"─Acts 22:10:
26. "Rise up and enter into the city, and it will be told to you what you 
must do" (9:6); this is related to Saul's knowledge concerning the Body 
of Christ─Col. 1:24.
   
27. "To open their eyes, to turn them from darkness to light and from the 
authority of Satan to God, that  they may receive forgiveness of sins and 
an inheritance among those who have been sanctified by faith in Me"─Acts 
26:18:
    
28. To turn from darkness to light is to have a transfer from darkness into 
light, and to turn from the  authority of Satan to God is to be transferred 
out of the authority of Satan into God─v. 18a; Col. 1:13:
29. The authority of Satan is Satan’s kingdom, which belongs to darkness─
Matt. 12:26; John 12:31.
30. To be transferred into God is to be transferred to the authority of 
God, which is God’s kingdom,  belonging to light─3:5; 1 John 1:5.

31. Forgiveness of sins is the base of all the blessings of the New Testament 
jubilee─Acts 26:18b.
32. As the result of having our eyes opened and of being transferred from 
the authority of Satan to God,  we receive an inheritance;this inheritance 
is the Triune God with all that He has, all that  He has done, and all that 
He will do for His redeemed people─v.18c; Col. 1:12; Eph. 1:13-14; 1 Pet. 
1:4.
     
33. The divine inheritance is among those who have been sanctified by faith 
in Christ; this sanctification is both positional and dispositional─Acts 
26:18d; Matt. 23:17, 19; Rom. 6:19, 22.

34. "I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision" (Acts 26:19); this was 
a vision in which the apostle saw the divine things concerning the dispensing 
of the Triune God into His chosen, redeemed, and  transformed people  for 
the building up of the Body of Christ according to God's eternal economy─
Rom. 8:11; Eph. 4:16; 1:10; 3:9.
