你现今在过什么节－逾越节还是住棚节？不论你在过什么节，你仍是饥饿或干渴的。不论你是贫是富，不论你是在困苦还是在富余的光景中，你都会领悟你不是饥饿就是干渴。

In the Scriptures a garment signifies what we do and how we act.

主应付了我们一切的需要。在这一切之后，我们还有洗脚的需要。

We need to pray for much fruit-bearing that the Father may be glorified

然而，有些人接受了带进生命的生命树，（创二9，）按着基督内在的实际认祂。（约七40，50～51。）不要注意外貌，必须看见里面有什么。里面有基督吗？我们都必须按着内在的实际，不按着外貌认基督。

do you also realize that you must apply the washing of the baptism day by day? In every day of your Christian life you have to apply the washing of baptism by putting the self and the nature of the old man under the water of death.

Lord would prepare a place, accomplish redemption, open up the way, and make a standing for man to get into God.

When the Lord came, Martha was the first one to meet Him (11:20). But before the Lord could say anything, Martha opened her mouth and gave forth another opinion:

请你读撒迦利亚二章八至十一节。

主问，『你想要痊愈吗？』意思就是：『你想要得医治吗？』那软弱的人除了池子、水、和搅动水的使者以外，别无所知。他也晓得在自己里面没有希望，没有能力，所以就将他的光景向主耶稣说明。于是主耶稣对他说，『起来，拿你的褥子走吧。』那软弱的人听了那永活、赐生命的主那点活人的话，就痊愈了。

The branches are in an intimate relationship with the vine

It simply means that the resurrection life will raise up a situation through which God’s scattered people may be gathered together in order to be built up for God’s dwelling on earth.

主预先告诉门徒，好叫他们在逼迫来临时不至受挫、绊跌，也不至受迷惑。

The Greek word for Comforter is the same as that for Advocate in 1 John 2:1

if you obey the living Word and say, “Amen, Lord Jesus,” you immediately have the sensation that something has fallen off your eyes and you have light. Your old humanity has fallen away and you can see into the heavens. This is the way to receive light.

There are three steps which we must follow in order to receive sight for our eyes.

回答问题最智慧的办法就是不回答，或以后回答，或慢慢回答。主对他们的问题起初的反应是不立即回答。我们也必须学习这个智慧。当人问你一个紧迫的问题时，你必须向主学习。祂只弯下腰来，在地上写字。沉默使人冷静下来，就像冷水使滚水凉下来一样。

Praise the Lord that there is another father, the heavenly Father, the Father of light and truth. He is the great I Am, who became incarnated as a man. As the Son of Man, He was lifted up on the cross for our sin and died for us.

那灵，就是基督的灵，（罗八9，）耶稣基督的灵，（腓一19，）在主说这话时还没有，因为祂尚未得着荣耀。耶稣是在复活时得着荣耀的。（路二四26。）祂复活后，神的灵就成了那成为肉体、钉十字架、复活之耶稣基督的灵。基督在祂复活的晚上，已将这灵吹到门徒里面。（约二十22。）
