第十篇 模成基督的死与达到杰出的复活
Being Conformed to Christ's Death and Attaining to the Out-resurrection
读经：腓三10～11
Scripture Reading: Phil. 3:10-11
壹 在腓立比三章十节保罗说到“模成祂的死”，这发表指明保罗渴望以基督的死作他生活的模子：
I. In Philippians 3:10 Paul speaks of "being conformed to His death"; this expression indicates that Paul desired to take Christ's death as the mold of his life:
一 认识基督为至宝、将万事看作亏损、赢得基督、给人看出是在祂里面、认识祂、认识祂复活的大能以及认识同祂受苦的交通，结果都产生一件事—模成基督的死—7～10节。
A. The excellency of the knowledge of Christ, counting all things as loss, gaining Christ, being found in Him, knowing Him, knowing the power of His resurrection, and knowing the fellowship of His sufferings all issue in one thing—being conformed to Christ's death—vv. 7-10.
二 模成基督的死，是经历基督的基础—一20～21上，三9～10。
B. Being conformed to Christ's death is the base of the experience of Christ—1:20-21a; 3:9-10.
三 基督之死的模子，是指基督经历不断地将祂天然属人的生命治死，使祂得以凭神的生命活着—约六57上：
C. The mold of Christ's death refers to the continual putting to death of His natural, human life that He might live by the life of God—John 6:57a:
1 当主耶稣在地上时，祂过钉十字架的生活；借着过钉十字架的生活，祂就向神活着，并且活神。
1. When the Lord Jesus was on earth, He lived a crucified life; by living a crucified life He was alive to God and lived Him.
2 祂一直治死祂属人的生命，使祂里面神圣的生命能流露出来—十10下～11、17。
2. He always put His human life to death so that the divine life within Him could flow out—10:10b-11, 17.
3 祂活着的时候，也是一直在死—向着旧造死，好使祂能过新造里的生活；这是腓立比三章十节里“祂的死”的意义。
3. As He was living, He was also dying—dying to the old creation in order to live a life in the new creation; this is the meaning of His death in Philippians 3:10.
四 基督的死是一个模子，把我们模成这模子的形状，就像把面团放在蛋糕模子里，模成其形状一样：
D. Christ's death is a mold to which we are conformed in much the same way that dough is put into a cake mold and conformed to it:
1 神已经把我们摆进基督之死的模子里，一天过一天神把我们模成这死—罗六3～4。
1. God has put us into the mold of Christ's death, and day by day God is molding us to conform us to this death—Rom. 6:3-4.
2 我们的生活应当模成祂这模子的形状，就是向我们人的生命死，好活神的生命—加二20，林后四10～11。
2. Our life should be conformed to such a mold—dying to our human life in order to live the divine life—Gal. 2:20; 2 Cor. 4:10-11.
3 我们若治死我们天然的生命，就会感觉我们里面有另一个生命，就是神圣的生命；这生命会得着释放，这样，我们在经历中就会模成基督的死—约十10下，约壹五11～12。
3. If we put to death our natural life, we will have the consciousness that we have another life, the divine life, within us; this life will be released, and then in our experience we will be conformed to Christ's death—John 10:10b; 1 John 5:11-12.
4 在基督之死的模子里，天然的人消杀了，旧人钉死了，己废掉了—林后四16，罗六6，太十六24。
4. In the mold of Christ's death the natural man is killed, the old man is crucified, and the self is nullified—2 Cor. 4:16; Rom. 6:6; Matt. 16:24.
5 我们若让环境将我们压到这模子里，我们日常的生活就会模成基督之死的形状—罗八28～29。
5. If we allow our circumstances to press us into this mold, our daily life will be molded into the form of Christ's death—Rom. 8:28-29.
6 我们乃是借着基督复活的大能，被模成基督的死这模子的形状—腓三10，约十一25，弗一19～20，歌二8～13。
6. We are conformed to the mold of Christ's death by the power of Christ's resurrection—Phil. 3:10; John 11:25; Eph. 1:19-20; S. S. 2:8-13.
五 当我们被模成基督的死，我们就经历祂成就一切的死：
E. As we are conformed to Christ's death, we experience His all-accomplishing death:
1 借着模成基督的死，我们就在祂的死里经历祂，使生命得以释放、分赐并繁增—约十二24～25，林后四12。
1. By being conformed to His death, we experience Christ in His death for the release, impartation, and multiplication of life—John 12:24-25; 2 Cor. 4:12.
2 荣耀神唯一的路，就是模成基督的死；我们越模成基督的死，就越荣耀父—约十二28，十三31。
2. The only way to glorify God is to be conformed to Christ's death; the more we are conformed to Christ's death, the more we glorify the Father—John 12:28; 13:31.
3 当我们经历基督的死，并且模成祂的死，我们就成为吸引人归向基督的磁石—十二32。
3. When we die the death of Christ and are conformed to His death, we will be a magnet drawing others to Christ—12:32.
4 我们越与基督同死，就越使我们的魂生命蒙拯救归入永远的生命—25节。
4. The more we die with Christ, the more we save our soul-life unto eternal life—v. 25.
5 我们若愿意模成基督的死，我们将会胜过世界并击败撒但—31节，来二14。
5. If we are willing to be conformed to Christ's death, we will over come the world and defeat Satan—v. 31; Heb. 2:14.
贰 模成基督之死的结果，乃是叫我们可以达到那从死人中杰出的复活—腓三11：
II. The result of being conformed to Christ's death is that we may attain to, or arrive at, the out-resurrection from the dead—Phil. 3:11:
一 杰出的复活就是卓越的复活，特殊的复活，这是要给得胜圣徒的奖赏—启二十4、6：
A. The out-resurrection is the outstanding resurrection, the extra-resurrection, which will be a prize to the overcoming saints—Rev. 20:4, 6:
1 所有在基督里死了的信徒，在主回来时，都要有分于从死人中的复活—帖前四16，林前十五52。
1. All believers who are dead in Christ will participate in the resurrection from the dead at the Lord's coming back—1 Thes. 4:16; 1 Cor. 15:52.
2 主的得胜者要享受那复活特殊、杰出的分，就是他们要在其中得着国度赏赐的复活；这是使徒保罗所追求的—来十一35、26。
2. The Lord's overcomers will enjoy an extra, outstanding portion of that resurrection, a resurrection in which they will receive the reward of the kingdom; this is what the apostle Paul sought after—Heb. 11:35, 26.
3 杰出的复活，该是我们基督徒生活的目标和目的—腓三11～15上。
3. The out-resurrection should be the goal and destination of our Christian life—Phil. 3:11-15a.
二 达到杰出的复活，需要我们得胜的奔跑赛程，以得着奖赏。
B. To attain to the out-resurrection is to arrive at the out-resurrection; this requires us to triumphantly run the race for the prize.
三 达到杰出的复活，意即我们全人已在逐渐不断地复活—帖前五23：
C. To attain to the out-resurrection means that our entire being is gradually and continually resurrected—1 Thes. 5:23:
1 神首先使我们死了的灵复活；然后祂继续使我们的魂和必死的身体复活，直到我们的全人—灵、魂、体—借着并同着祂的生命，从我们的旧人完全复活过来—弗二5～6，罗八6、11。
1. God first resurrected our deadened spirit; He proceeds to resurrect our soul and our mortal body until our whole being—spirit, soul, and body—is fully resurrected out of our old being by His life and with His life—Eph. 2:5-6; Rom. 8:6, 11.
2 我们若模成基督的死，我们全人的每一部分就要逐渐地复活；因此，基督徒的生活是一个复活的过程。
2. If we are conformed to Christ's death, every part of our being will be gradually resurrected; thus, the Christian life is a process of resurrection.
3 我们唯有借着过钉十字架的生活模成基督的死，才能达到这目标—腓三10～11。
3. We can reach this goal only by being conformed to the death of Christ by living a crucified life—Phil. 3:10-11.
4 在基督的死里，我们经过从旧造到新造的过程—10～11节，林后五17。
4. In the death of Christ we are processed from the old creation to the new—vv. 10-11; 2 Cor. 5:17.
四 杰出的复活，乃是脱离旧造，进入新造的复活—加六15，林后五17：
D. The out-resurrection is a resurrection out of the old creation into the new creation—Gal. 6:15; 2 Cor. 5:17:
1 在杰出的复活里，意思就是离开一切旧造的事物，并被带进神里面。
1. To be in the out-resurrection means to leave everything of the old creation and to be brought into God.
2 杰出的复活里毫无旧造的成分，反而满了神圣的成分—启二一5上。
2. In the out-resurrection there is no element of the old creation; instead, everything is full of the divine element—Rev. 21:5a.
五 对保罗而言，活着就是基督作为杰出的复活—腓一21上，三11：
E. For Paul, to live was Christ as the out-resurrection—Phil. 1:21a; 3:11:
1 杰出的复活实际上就是基督这亲爱、宝贵、超绝的人位；祂借着钉死与复活，已经从旧造出来，并进到神里面—约十四3、20，来六19～20。
1. The out-resurrection is actually the dear, precious, excellent person of Christ, the One who, through crucifixion and resurrection, has passed out of the old creation and has entered into God—John 14:3, 20; Heb. 6:19-20.
2 我们所应当活的这位基督，祂本身就是杰出的复活—腓一21上，三11，约十一25。
2. The Christ whom we should live is Himself the out-resurrection—Phil. 1:21a; 3:11; John 11:25.
六 在腓立比三章十二节，保罗已经借着信徒共同的信，得了信徒共有的救恩，但他还没有得着复活特殊的分：
F. In Philippians 3:12 Paul had already obtained the believers' common salvation by the believers' common faith, but he had not obtained the extra portion of resurrection:
1 要得着那一分，需要他追求、奔跑并得胜地完成他的路程—提后四7～8。
1. To obtain that portion he had to pursue, to run, and to finish the course triumphantly—2 Tim. 4:7-8.
2 腓立比三章十二节的“竭力追求”，原文与“逼迫”同字，也有“竭力向前、追赶”之意：
2. The Greek word for pursue in Philippians 3:12 is the same word as for persecute; this word also means "to press toward, to follow after":
a 保罗是这样的奔跑赛程，为要得着奖赏，并达到成熟。
a. In such a way Paul ran the race to obtain the prize and reach maturity.
b 保罗在得救前，是逼迫基督；得救后，他竭力追求基督到一个地步，也是逼迫基督，不过是在正面上。
b. Before he was saved, he persecuted Christ; after he was saved, he pursued Christ to such an extent that he persecuted Christ, but in a positive way.
七 我们需要被模成基督的死，好使我们或者可以达到那从死人中杰出的复活；这是主能在祂的恢复里往前唯一的路，是主建造祂召会唯一的路，是主预备祂新妇唯一的路，也是我们把主带回来唯一的路—10～11节，太十六18，启十九7～9上，二二14、20。
G. We need to be conformed to Christ's death so that by any means we may attain to the out-resurrection from the dead; this is the only way for the Lord to go on in His recovery, the only way for the Lord to build up His church, the only way to prepare the bride, and the only way to bring the Lord back—vv. 10-11; Matt. 16:18; Rev. 19:7-9a; 22:14, 20.
