我们必须使查考神的话和摸着主成为一件事。每逢我们读圣经，我们必须将我们的灵向主敞开。当我们的眼睛在阅读圣经的话，我们的心思在领会这些话时，我们的灵必须操练藉着圣经接触主。这样，我们不但在头脑里领会圣经上的白纸黑字，还在我们的灵中得到生命。

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.

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

What is the meaning of “in My name”? The name is the Son Himself, and the Spirit is the person, the being, of the Son. When we call on the name of the Son, we get the Spirit

The central thought of this chapter is that we must believe into God.

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。

在祂能成为我们的食物之前，祂必须先成为微小的。所以二个小孩带来的五个小的大麦饼和两条小鱼就象征了祂。我们需要对主的伟大和祂的微小，同样有深刻印象。祂甚至生在小马槽里，长在小城中，并且在卑微的家庭中被抚育。祂不是来作宗教伟人。祂是小小的拿撒勒人，毫无伟大之处。哦，祂是何等微小！

When the Lord did not want to go, they were puzzled, and when the Lord was about to go, they thought that it was not necessary to go. Once the Lord expressed His desire to go and see Lazarus, all of the disciples expressed their opinions.

只要我们有耶稣，一切宗教的事物就算不得什么；只要我们有耶稣，我们就有生命。让宗教同宗教的一切事物去吧。那些东西不能给我们生命，但耶稣能。耶稣将我们点活，耶稣给我们生命。生命带给我们喜乐，生命带给我们安息。生命带给我们亮光和我们所需要的一切。赞美主！

Whenever we listen to His speaking and keep His commandments, His presence is immediately intensified and becomes so sweet, precious, watering, strengthening, enlightening, and nourishing.

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。

我们若要认识主作生命的细节，就必须领会约翰福音。

The death and resurrection of the Lord glorified God the Father because His death and resurrection released God’s divine element from within Him. 

Hallelujah, the Lord has raised us from the dead and cleansed us from our leprosy, our sins! Now where we are becomes the meeting place of the church.

Lord never comes to improve you or to regulate your behavior. He always comes to enliven you. The Lord’s only intention is to impart Himself to you as the enlivening life.
