週 二 Day Two
肆 在以弗所書中,『奧祕』是一個重要的辭:
IV. In Ephesians mystery is a crucial word:
一 在永遠裏神計畫了一個意願,這意願是隱藏在祂裏面的,因此是個奧祕 ─ 祂意願的奧祕 ─ 1:9。
A. In eternity God planned a will, but it was hidden in Him; hence, it was a mystery - the mystery of His will.
二 神隱藏的定旨是個奧祕,這奧祕在我們調和之靈裏的揭示,就是奧祕的啟示 ─ 3:3,5。
B. God’s hidden purpose is the mystery, and the unveiling of this mystery in the mingled spirit is the revelation of the mystery.
三 神的奧祕乃是祂隱藏的定旨,這奧祕有一個經綸─奧祕的經綸─ 9節。
C. God’s mystery is His hidden purpose, and with this mystery there is an economy - the economy of the mystery.
四 基督是個奧祕,召會是基督的身體彰顯基督,所以是基督的奧祕 ─
4節,西Col. 4:3。
D. Christ is a mystery, and the church, as the Body of Christ to express Him, is the mystery of Christ.
五 基督與召會是一靈,這是極大的奧祕 ─ 林前1 Cor. 6:17;弗Eph. 5:32。
E. Christ and the church as one spirit are the great mystery.
