主的门徒有三一神真实的同在作他们的大喜乐,而使他们成为那有“耶稣的人性”的人,对他们所接触者是甜美、迷人、吸引人的,毫无虚谎或伪善。
The disciples of the Lord have the real presence of the Triune God as their exceeding joy to make them persons who are "Jesusly human", those who are sweet, charming, and attractive to those whom they contact, without any deception or hypocrisy.
永远的生命乃是神的生命带着神圣的性情,三一神乃是新约的结构,而神是自隐的神—隐藏的神。
The eternal life is the life of God with the divine nature, the Triune God is the structure of the New Testament, and God is a God who hides Himself—the hidden God.
我们借着在基督这活石里,在神圣的生命中长大,变化为宝石;借着这变化的过程,三一神就被作到我们里面,并与我们构造在一起,使祂恩典的荣耀得着称赞,这恩典是祂在那蒙爱者里面所恩赐我们的,使我们成为新耶路撒冷,作为整本圣经的总结,并作为给整个宇宙的福音。
By our growth in the divine life in Christ as the living stone, we are being transformed into precious stones; through the process of transformation, the Triune God is being wrought into and structured together with us to the praise of the glory of His grace with which He graced us in the Beloved for us to become the New Jerusalem as the conclusion of the entire Bible and the good news to the entire universe.
基督是新郎,作基督新妇的召会必须是击败神仇敌的战士;借着属灵的争战,神永远的定旨就完全达成了。
Christ is the Bridegroom, the church as the bride of Christ must be a warrior to defeat God's enemy, and through spiritual warfare God's eternal purpose is completely accomplished.
