週 六 Day Six
4 召會乃是照著神永遠的定旨,而神創造萬有,是為使祂能得著召會 ─ 弗Eph. 3:9, 11; 啟Rev. 4: 11。
The church is according to God’s eternal purpose, and God created all things so that He could have the church.
5 召會乃是由信徒所享受並吸收之基督的豐富構成的─弗Eph. 3:8。
The church is a constitution of the riches of Christ enjoyed and assi-
milated by the believers.
6 藉著召會,使諸天界裏執政的、掌權的,得知神萬般的智慧 ─10節。
Through the church the multifarious wisdom of God is made known to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenlies (v. 10).
7 與基督的奧祕 ─ 召會 ─ 有關的,是奧祕的經綸;神的經綸乃是神的計畫和安排,要在祂的神聖三一裏,將自己分賜到祂所揀選的人裏面,為要產生基督的身體,終極完成於新耶路撒冷,作三一神永遠團體的彰顯;這是宇宙中最大的奧祕;沒有一事比這個還大還重要 ─ 9節,1:22-23; 4:16; 啟Rev. 21:2, 10-11。
Related to the mystery of Christ, the church, there is the economy of the mystery; God’s economy is His plan and arrangement to dispense Himself in His Divine Trinity into His chosen people in order to produce the Body of Christ consummating in the New Jerusalem for the eternal corporate expression of the Triune God; this is the greatest mystery in the universe; nothing is greater or more important than this.
柒 這一切奧祕都與福音有關;因此,福音的奧祕是指整個新約的經綸,藉這福音我們成為有意義的人,並且享受神作宇宙的奧祕 ─
弗Eph. 6:19; 詩Psa. 36:8-9。
VII. All these mysteries are related to the gospel; thus, the mystery of the gospel refers to the entire New Testament economy, and through the gospel we may become persons of meaning and enjoy God as the mystery of the universe.

弗3:8 這恩典賜給了我這比眾聖徒中最小者還小的,叫我將基督那追測不盡的豐富,當作福音傳給外邦人,
Eph. 3:8 To me, less than the least of all saints, was this grace given to announce to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ as the gospel
弗3:9 並將那歷世歷代隱藏在創造萬有之神裡的奧祕有何等的經綸,向眾人照明。
Eph. 3:9 And to enlighten all that they may see what the economy of the mystery is, which throughout the ages has been hidden in God, who created all things.
