神把我们同你们,坚固的联于基督

主,你与我们成为一灵,在我们的说话中说话,使我们看见这生机的联结,又真又确的从这里释放出你话语的丰富,叫我们众人都得享你的甘甜!

填空(请用鼠标左键选择空白处)
  使徒同信徒联于基督那受膏者,这表明使徒在借着施膏的灵联于基督的事上,将自己与信徒同列,并不认为自己在神包罗万有的救恩中,是特别的一班,而与信徒分开。 (参林后一212

  坚固的联于,直译,建立于。神把使徒同信徒,在基督里建立起来。这意思是说,神把使徒同信徒坚固的联于基督这受膏者。因此,使徒和信徒不仅与基督这受膏者是一,也彼此是,而一同有分于基督从神所受的。(参林后一213

Filling the Blanks (Please double-click the blanks)
 God establishes the apostles with the believers in (Christ). This means that God firmly attaches the apostles together with the (believers) unto Christ, the anointed One. Hence, the apostles and the believers are one not only with Christ, the anointed One, but also with one  (another), sharing the  (anointing) that Christ has received of God.(See 2 Cor 1:21 note 2)

 The apostles with the believers have been attached to Christ, the  (anointed) One. This shows that the apostles ranked themselves with the believers in being attached to Christ by the  (anointing) Spirit, not considering themselves a special group separate from the believers in God's all-inclusive  (salvation). (See 2 Cor 1:21 note 3)
