【读圣经学英语】那灵是没有限量

约翰福音-John 3 章 32~36节

   
3:32 祂将所见所闻的见证出来,只是没有人领受祂的见证。
What He has seen and heard, of this He testifies, and no one receives His testimony.
3:33 那领受祂见证的,就盖上印,证明神是真的。
He who receives His testimony has sealed that God is true.
3:34 神所差来的,就说神的话,因为祂赐那灵是没有限量的。
For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for He gives the Spirit not by measure.
3:35 父爱子,已将万有交在祂手里。
The Father loves the Son and has given all into His hand.
3:36 信入子的人有永远的生命;不信从子的人不得见生命,神的震怒却停留在他身上。
He who believes into the Son has eternal life; but he who disobeys the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides upon him.
 
亮光

我们看见两件事,那就是主耶稣将神的话服事给祂的子民,以及祂将那灵无限量的赐给他们。

在地方教会中,我们只需要两件东西:活的话和无限量的灵。今天,教会的元首基督,仍在供应这两件东西。我信祂特别将供应活话的负担给了我们。虽然我们将这话说了出来,供应这话的却不是我们。我们讲说,但供应的乃是祂。祂将祂丰富的话在我们的讲说里供应出去。祂是神圣的说话者,神圣的分赐者。祂供应人丰富的话,又将活的灵没有限量的分赐给人。祂是供应活话以滋养祂众肢体的那一位。祂也是分赐那灵给祂的众肢体,使他们能充分尽功用的那一位。没有别人能作这事。祂是包罗万有的那灵,也是包罗万有的基督,祂是无限的。

在末后的日子,主将用祂丰富的话和活的灵表白祂的道路。主在哪里?那里有丰富的话和活的灵,那里就有祂。再没有别的东西可视为祂同在的象征。主耶稣在那里,那里就有丰富的话和活的灵。

 
 

Enlightenment:

We see two things: the Lord Jesus ministers the words of God to His people, and He gives the Spirit to God’s people without measure. 

In the local churches we need just two things—the living Word and the immeasurable Spirit. Today, as the Head of the church, Christ is still ministering these two things. I believe that He has especially burdened us with the ministry of the living Word. Although we speak the Word, it is not we who minister the Word. We speak, but He ministers. He ministers His rich Word in our speaking. He is the divine speaker and the divine dispenser. He ministers the rich Word and dispenses the living Spirit without measure. He is the One who ministers the living Word to nourish all of His members. He is the One who dispenses the Spirit into all His members in order that they might function in a full way. No one else can do this. He is the all-inclusive Spirit and the all-inclusive Christ. He is unlimited.

In these last days the Lord is going to vindicate His way by means of the rich Word and the living Spirit. Where is the Lord? He is wherever there is the rich Word and the living Spirit. Nothing else can be considered as signs of the Lord’s presence.  Where the Lord Jesus is, there you will find the rich Word and the living Spirit.
