晨興餧養

創三五14 雅各便在神與他說話的地方立了一根石柱,在柱上澆了奠祭,並且澆上油。

腓二17  然而,即使我成為奠祭,澆奠在你們信心的祭物和供奉上,也是喜樂,並且與你們眾人一同喜樂。

〔在腓立比二章十七節,〕保羅以信徒對基督的經歷所構成的信心為基本的祭,好叫他能將自己作為奠祭澆奠在其上。天上的神必定會因這種光景非常喜樂。…在信徒這面有信心,在使徒這面有奠祭,這是何等美妙的景象!難怪保羅能說,他與他們眾人一同喜樂!保羅樂於流血成為奠祭,澆奠在信徒信心的祭物上。他不僅喜樂,還與眾聖徒一同喜樂。與別人一同喜樂,意指同他們分享喜樂。使徒在為腓立比人的信心殉道的事上,與他們分享他的喜樂。因此,這含示向他們慶賀之意。我相信三一神看見這種歡樂、喜樂的情景,也與保羅一同喜樂(腓立比書生命讀經,一四○頁)。

信息選讀

    惟有從我們對主的經歷中,纔能產生奠祭。我們要成為奠祭,就必須被主充滿,被主浸透。惟有如此,我們纔能有屬靈的構成,使我們成為奠祭。像我們這樣的罪人,竟能構成為屬天的酒,讓神心滿意足,這是何等不得了的事!

    信徒經歷基督並享受基督,結果他們裏面就產生一個構成,保羅稱之為信心。在神眼中,這信心太超絕、美好、美妙了,神將其視為獻給自己的祭物。保羅因着多年對主的經歷,尤其是因着在監獄裏那段期間的經歷,他構成了屬天的酒,能彀使神喜悅快樂。信徒信心的祭物使神滿足,而奠祭使神喜悅。因此,奠祭乃是在滿足神的祭物之外,所獻上使神喜悅的祭。祭物是非常使神滿足的。在舊約裏,獻奠祭的人所獻的,就豫表說,不是出於牛群羊群,乃是出於他自己和自己的經歷。在新約裏,我們看見,保羅藉着個人對基督的享受與經歷,成了令神喜悅的酒,澆奠在主面前。他對基督的經歷將他構成酒,使神喜樂(腓立比書生命讀經,一四○至一四一頁)。

    奠祭…主要是加在燔祭、平安祭和同獻的素祭上(出二九40~41,利二三9~1315~18,民十五1~10,二八1~14,二九17~38),…〔並且〕豫表基督將自己傾倒出來,叫神喜悅,使神滿足(真理課程三級卷二,一三頁)。

    奠祭乃是在利未記一至六章所啟示的基本祭物之外附加的。…基本的祭物豫表基督的各方面,奠祭豫表獻祭的人所享受的基督。基督這屬天的酒充滿獻祭的人,甚至使他們成為獻給神的酒。使徒保羅因着這樣享受基督,就成了這樣的奠祭(提後四6),使他能藉着流血,澆奠在信徒的信心這獻給神的祭物上(聖經恢復本,腓二171)。

    創世記三十五章十四節是聖經中頭一次題到奠祭。…這裏提到奠祭,聯於伯特利的柱子,指明奠祭是為着神的建造。雅各在柱上澆油之前,先在其上澆奠祭,這表徵奠祭的澆奠帶進那靈的澆灌(徒二33),為着聖別神的家(出四十9)(聖經恢復本,創三五142)。

WEEK 8 — DAY 2

Morning Nourishment

Gen. 35:14 "And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where He had spoken with him, a pillar of stone; and he poured out a drink offering on it and poured oil on it."

Phil. 2:17 "But even if I am being poured out as a drink offering upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice, and I rejoice together with you all."

[In Philippians 2:17] Paul regarded the faith constituted of the believers’ experience of Christ as the basic offering upon which he could pour out himself as a drink offering. God in heaven must have been very happy with this situation....On the side of the believers, there was faith; on the side of the apostle, there was the drink offering. What a marvelous scene! No wonder Paul could say that he rejoiced with them all! Paul rejoiced to have his blood shed as a drink offering upon the sacrifice of the believers’ faith. He not only rejoiced, but he rejoiced together with all the saints. To rejoice together with others is to share joy with them. The apostle shared his joy with the Philippians in his martyrdom over their faith. This implies a congratulation to them. I believe that the Triune God was also rejoicing with Paul at such a happy, joyful scene. (Life-study of Philippians, p. 118)

Today's Reading

A drink offering can only be produced out of our experience with the Lord. In order to become a drink offering, we need to be filled with the Lord and saturated with Him. Only in this way can we have the spiritual constitution which makes us a drink offering. What a tremendous matter that sinners such as we can be constituted into heavenly wine for God’s satisfaction!

As a result of their experience of Christ and enjoyment of Christ, the believers have a constitution which Paul terms faith. In the eyes of God, this faith is so excellent, beautiful, and marvelous that He considers it a sacrifice offered to Him. Paul, after experiencing the Lord for so many years, especially during his imprisonment, became a constitution of heavenly wine that could cheer God and make Him happy. The sacrifice of the believers’ faith was satisfying to God, and the drink offering was cheering to Him. Thus, the drink offering is a cheering offering presented in addition to a satisfying sacrifice. The sacrifices were very satisfying to God. In the Old Testament, the one who offered the drink offering presented something which, in type, came not from the flock or the herd, but out of himself and his experience. In the New Testament we see that through his personal enjoyment of Christ and experience of Him, Paul became cheering wine poured out before the Lord. His experience of Christ constituted him into wine to make God happy. (Life-study of Philippians, pp. 118-119)

The drink offering was...offered mainly with the burnt offering, the peace offering, and the meal offering (Exo. 29:40-41; Lev. 23:9-13, 15-18; Num. 15:1-10; 28:1-14; 29:12-38). The drink offering is a type of Christ pouring Himself out for God’s pleasure and satisfaction. (Truth Lessons—Level Three, vol. 2, p. 14)

The drink offering was in addition to the basic offerings revealed in Leviticus 1—6....The basic offerings are types of various aspects of Christ. The drink offering is a type of Christ as enjoyed by the offerer. Christ as the heavenly wine fills the offerer and even causes him to become wine to God. The apostle Paul became such a drink offering (2 Tim. 4:6) by enjoying Christ in this way, so that he could be poured out as a sacrifice to God upon the believers’ faith through the shedding of his blood. (Phil. 2:17, footnote 1)

Genesis 35:14 is the first mentioning of the drink offering in the Bible....Its being mentioned here in connection with the pillar at Bethel indicates that the drink offering is for God’s building. The fact that Jacob poured a drink offering upon the pillar before pouring oil upon it signifies that the pouring out of the drink offering brings in the outpouring of the Spirit (Acts 2:33) for the sanctifying of God’s house (Exo. 40:9). (Gen. 35:14, footnote 2)
