A Deeper Life
更深的生命
更深的生命
文: 陳瑩
我們很難把經歷「更深生命」的那種「感覺」說出來。除非聽的人也有同樣經歷，否則不會摸着。很多時，人往往將他所沒有「真」知道的話去告訴人。甚麼是「更深的感覺？」乃是指一種分辨的能力，它很自然的能摸着甚麼是出於生命，出於靈。例如你碰到一個人，他很有禮，很客氣，非常謙虛，但你總覺得有點那個，有點不自然，你總得這不是出於「生命」的東西。反而有時，你遇見沒有那麼「謙虛有禮」的人，倒覺得非常自然，覺得是出於「生命。」有時在禱告會中，有些人禱告得熱切非常，甚至淚流滿面，可是你反覺得很「冷，」覺得有點「虛而不實。」有時人輕輕祇說幾句話，就摸着了深處，摸着了東西的源頭。主在地上的時候，祂裏面的感覺實在敏銳。在許多人「擠」住祂的時間，祂知道有一個人「摸」祂，那一下「摸，」與別人的「擠」是迴然不同的，那血漏的婦人不得不承認是她摸的。當彼得說祂是基督，主說是父啟示他的。後來他勸主不要上耶路撒冷，主立刻說他是撒旦，主不停留在彼得身上，主認識源頭。源頭不外兩個，出於聖靈與出於肉體。許多基督徒裏面的「基督」就像是未成小雞形狀的雞蛋。雞蛋是有生命的，但你指不出哪是頭是腳。許多人糊里糊塗，不清不楚的在哪裏作基督徒。甚麼懷疑自己到底得救沒有，有「生命」沒有。但當神一天過一天，藉着光叫他越過越認識自己，就知道「生命」在他裏頭漸成形狀，越過就越像主了。所以假冒屬靈的人可以騙自己，在內行人跟前就不容易騙了，因為人若在自己身上認出甚麼是「基督，」也能在別人身上認得出來。人若摸不着這一條「生命成長」的路，就沒有別的路。
A Deeper Life

It is very difficult for us to talk about the "feeling" of experiencing "deeper life", unless the listened people have the same experience, otherwise there will be no touching. In many cases, people tend to tell people the words they do not "truly" know. What is a "deeper feeling?" It refers to an ability to distinguish, which can naturally feel what is from the life and what is from the spirit. For example, when you run into a person who is very polite, courtesy and humble, but you always feel a little unnatural and you always feel that it is not from the "life". on the contrary, sometimes you meet a person not so "humble and polite" but you think it is very natural and it is from the "life." Sometimes in the prayer reunion, some people pray very fervently and even burst into tears, but you actually feel very "cold" and feel it is a little "virtual rather than real". Sometimes people just say a few words softly yet it touches the depths of feeling and leads you to the source. During the time the Lord was on the earth, he had very keen feelings inside. When a lot of people "squeezed" him, he knew that there was someone "touched" him. Such "touch" was very different from other people's "squeezing", and the Hemorrhaging woman had to admit that it was she who touched the Lord. When Peter said that he was Christ the Lord told him that it was his father revealed him. Later, when Peter advised the Lord not to go to Jerusalem, the Lord immediately said he was Satan and the Lord was not staying inside Peter. The Lord knew the source, which was no more than two: one was from the Holy Spirit and the other was from the flesh. Many Christians and the "Christ" inside them are like chicken eggs. Egg has life, but we can not tell which head is and which foot is. Many people are confused and unclear to be Christians. And they even suspect whether they are saved or not and whether they have "life" or not. But when God let them know themselves though the light day after day, they know that "life" has been shaped inside them and they are more and more like the Lord. So fake spiritual people can lie to themselves but it is not easy to cheat in front of the insiders, because if people can recognize what "Christ" is on themselves, they can also recognize it on other people. For person failing to feel this road of "life and growth", there is no other way.
