我们必须有信心，就是当我们与人谈话时，主已在得胜的作工了。撒玛利亚妇人是在顷刻之间转变的。在已过，我们见过好些人这样转变，超过我们所信的，主转变人的路是在灵里，

这撒玛利亚妇人的干渴引她陷入好些错误的事里，诸如有过五个丈夫，又与一个不是她丈夫的人同居。那六个男人代表看得见和物质的事物，那永远不能满足人。

What is the way for a grain of wheat to multiply? It is not by being welcomed or honored, but by falling into the ground to die. This is absolutely contrary to the human concept. Nevertheless, we must remember that this is the only way to bring the church into being and to increase it in life.

耶稣在海上行走。（约六19。）这表征主能克服人生一切的困扰。祂能行走在人生困扰的波涛上，将一切的困扰踏在脚下。基督行走在一切波涛之上。似乎波涛越多，祂越喜欢行走其上。波涛惊骇了祂的门徒，祂却踏在其上。

In order for the Lord to abide in us, it is necessary to let His words abide in us.

人从外面看耶稣，只见祂是个拿撒勒人。祂无佳形美容，也无美貌使人羡慕。但在祂里面，祂就是神。有时我对主说，『主阿，为什么在美国，你带到教会的人很少是体面的，甚至有些人还衣冠不整的来聚会？』但我终于看出那些瓦器里有宝贝。

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:

子赐生命给死人。我们看见，那听子话，又信差子来者的，就有永远的生命，是已经出死入生了。

我们不可将活的话当作白纸黑字来接触，我们必须运用我们的灵，将活的话当作活的灵来接触。所以，经历生机体的路就是接触是灵的神，并且吃祂，喝祂。

神所要、所预定我们作的工，乃是信入祂的儿子。在二十九节，主耶稣并不是告诉我们要『信祂，』乃是要『信入祂。』
『信入祂』的意思是接受祂，并与祂联结，相调为一。你信入祂的时候，你与基督之间就有了一个联结和合一。换句话说，你已进入祂里面，也将祂接受到你里面。

这是整个宇宙的奥秘。 许多弟兄姊妹要看见神性与人性调和的这件事

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。

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.

May we look to Him for mercy and grace that we may always give Him the ground to expand within us

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