晨興餧養

約壹一2~3 (這生命已經顯現出來,我們也看見過,現在又作見證,將原與父同在,且顯現與我們那永遠的生命傳與你們;)我們將所看見並聽見的,也傳與你們,使你們也可以與我們有交通;而且我們的交通,又是與父並與祂兒子耶穌基督所有的。

 徒二42   他們都堅定持續在使徒的教訓和交通裏…。

正如電流就是電的本身,照樣,神聖生命的交通,神聖生命的流通,就是神聖生命的本身。…同樣的,我們基督徒的生活乃是神聖生命交通的生活。新約啟示,基督徒的聚會、基督徒的婚姻生活以及基督徒的工作,就是神聖的交通。神聖的交通是基督徒生活的一切。在行傳二章,得救的人被帶進並堅定持續在使徒的交通裏(42)(三一神作三部分人的生命,一八○頁)。

信息選讀

使徒們想與信徒們有交通,這是平面的交通。然後使徒們說明他們的交通乃是與三一神的交通,這是垂直的交通〔約壹一2~3〕。垂直的交通帶我們進入平面的交通裏。然後平面的交通帶我們進入範圍更廣大的垂直交通。這範圍更廣大的交通就是聚會。…在聚會中所有的功用都該彰顯神聖的交通。…整個聚會都該是一個交通。我們該與主有垂直的交通,同時彼此之間有平面的交通。

至終,在這神聖的交通中,神就與我們交織在一起。這交織就是神與人的調和。所有的聚會都該是垂直與平面兩面交織的交通。我們的婚姻生活也應該是交織的交通。夫妻不該單單彼此有交織,也該與主有交織。真實的基督徒婚姻應該是神聖的交通。我們一同配搭和工作,也該是神聖的交通。

我們必須領悟,當交通沒有了,神也消失了;神乃是作為交通而來。今天我們的聚會、我們的婚姻生活、同工之間的配搭,以及眾地方召會之間的交通是不正常的,因為我們缺少這交通。今天眾地方召會之間不彀有交通,眾召會沒有在交通中完全是一。

神聖的交通乃是基督徒生活的一切。使徒保羅活在這交通中。當我們活在神聖的交通中,我們的基督徒生活就變得非常活潑、活躍,並且滿了衝擊力。我們需要藉着二靈,完全進入神聖交通兩面的經歷。

然而,在我們的經歷中,我們與神之間總是有攔阻和障礙。神聖的交通在垂直與平面兩面都有許多障礙。需要甚麼來對付這些障礙呢?在全宇宙中,只有一個東西能除去我們與神之間的障礙,那就是十字架。

沒有十字架,我們的交通是膚淺的。十字架治死的工作加深我們的交通,那靈復活的吹氣拔高我們的交通。交通釋放我們,藉着十字架使我們脫離有罪的己。沒有十字架,我們就不會從己得釋放。…沒有那靈和十字架,我們就無法有真實的交通。

詩歌二百二十七首的第一句說,後是膏油先是血。血是十字架強有力的表號,而膏油是豫表包羅萬有、複合的靈。利未記十四章六至十節以及十四至十八節題到這兩種成分(三一神作三部分人的生命,一八一至一八二、一八五頁)。

WEEK 1 — DAY 5

Morning Nourishment

1 John 1:2-3 "(...We have seen and testify and report to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and was manifested to us); 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."

Acts 2:42 "And they continued steadfastly in the teaching and the fellowship of the apostles..."

    Just as the current of electricity is the electricity itself, the fellowship of the divine life, the flow of the divine life, is the divine life itself....Similarly, our Christian life is a life of the fellowship of the divine life. The New Testament reveals that the Christian meeting, the Christian married life, and the Christian work are just the divine fellowship. The divine fellowship is everything in the Christian life. Those who were saved in Acts 2 were brought into and continued steadfastly in the apostles’ fellowship (v. 42). (The Triune God to Be Life to the Tripartite Man, p. 154)

    Today's Reading
    The apostles wanted to have fellowship with the believers; this is horizontal fellowship. Then the apostles stated that their fellowship was with the Triune God; this is vertical fellowship [1 John 1:2-3]. The vertical fellowship brings us into the horizontal fellowship. The horizontal fellowship then brings us into the vertical fellowship on a larger scale. This larger scale of fellowship is the meetings....All the functioning in the meetings should be an expression of the divine fellowship. To prophesy is an expression of this fellowship....The entire meeting should be a fellowship. We should be vertically fellowshipping with the Lord and, at the same time, be horizontally fellowshipping with one another.

    Eventually, in this divine fellowship God is interwoven with us. This interweaving is the mingling of God with man. All of the meetings should be an interwoven fellowship with both the vertical and horizontal aspects.Our married life should also be an interwoven fellowship. The husband and the wife should not only be interwoven with each other but also with the Lord. The real Christian marriage should be the divine fellowship. Our coordination and work together should also be the divine fellowship.

    We must realize that when fellowship disappears, God also disappears.God comes as the fellowship. Today our meetings, our married life, the coordination among the co-workers, and the fellowship among the local churches are abnormal because we are short of this fellowship. Today there is not enough fellowship among the local churches, and the churches are not absolutely one in the fellowship.

    The divine fellowship is everything in the Christian life. The apostle Paul lived in this fellowship. When we live in the divine fellowship, our Christian life becomes very living, active, and full of impact. We need to fully enter into the experience of the divine fellowship in its two aspects by the two spirits.

    In our experience, however, there are always frustrations and obstacles between us and God. There are many obstacles to the divine fellowship in its vertical and horizontal aspects. What is needed to deal with these obstacles? In the whole universe, there is only one thing which takes away all the obstacles between us and God—the cross.

    Without the cross, our fellowship is superficial. The cross of death deepens our fellowship, and the Spirit’s breath as the resurrection uplifts our fellowship. Fellowship frees us from our sinful self through the cross. Without the cross, there is no release, freedom, or liberty from the self....Without the Spirit and the cross, we cannot have real fellowship.

    The first line of [Hymns], #279 says, “First the blood, and then the ointment.” The blood is a strong sign of the cross, and the ointment is a type of the all-inclusive, compound Spirit. These two elements are mentioned in Leviticus 14:6-10, 14-18. (The Triune God to Be Life to the Tripartite Man, pp.154-155, 158-159)
