The Lord said that He will give sight to those who cannot see, but that He will make blind those who claim to see. This is a serious vindication of the Lord. Thus, we must be humble and not proud.

The Lord is the door to the sheepfold. Originally, the fold was the law, and the Lord was the door into the law. The Lord was not only the door into the law; He is also the door for people to come out of the law.

这样吃祂的肉喝祂的血，就是相信祂在十字架上为我们所作成的，好在祂的救赎里，接受祂作生命和生命的供应。我们把这节与四十七节相比，就能看见，吃主的肉，喝主的血，等于相信祂，因为信或信入，就是接受。

In 8:32 we are told that “the reality shall set you free.” In 8:36 we are told that “the Son shall set you free.” This proves that the Son, the Lord Himself, is the reality. Since the Lord is the embodiment of God (Col. 2:9), He is the reality of what God is.

请你读撒迦利亚二章八至十一节。

The Jewish priests took counsel that they might kill Lazarus (12:10) who testified to the resurrection power of the Lord. He was an evident and strong testimony of the Lord’s resurrection power.

Now we are in the zoe life under one shepherd to be one flock. This is not an organization; it is a flocking together in life. It is wonderful. Hallelujah! The flock is not a matter of religion, but of life.

惟独祂是在复活里活着的一位。成为肉体是头一步骤，钉十字架是第二步骤，复活是第三步骤，藉此主就使自己便于作我们的生命。

主虽然是永远无限的神，（罗九5，）却作了人在地上生活，甚至受时间的限制。主甘愿失去祂的自由，受时间的约束，实行父的旨意，好将生命的活水供应我们。

Glorified simply means manifested.

On the one hand, we are the new creation, we are in God, and we are in the heavenlies.

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.

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。

重生是为着基督的扩增，是为着产生新妇。重生是为叫你成为基督新妇的一部分。约翰三章是讲重生，为着基督的扩增。许多基督徒只看见重生本身，并未看见重生的目的。重生是单为叫你有永远的生命吗？不是！不只这么多。重生乃是为着把我们建造到新妇里，这新妇就是基督的扩增。
