“道成了肉身，住在我們中間，充充滿滿的有恩典，有真理，我們也見過祂的榮光，正是父獨生子的榮光，從祂豐滿的恩典裏我們都領受了，而且恩上加恩。”（約一：16，17）
請一而再的讀這段經文，直到你完全為基督所充滿，讓聖靈教導你如何敬拜那位在神一切豐富裏的基督。
比方說我得到一個僅僅可裝很少錢或沒有任何錢的袋子，或者說我得到一個可裝很多金幣的袋子，這兩種的區別是何等的大！我們基督徒亦是如此，有些人接受基督隻知道罪得赦免，有上天堂的希望，對於豐富的基督和祂裏麵屬靈的產業隻知道一點。另一種基督徒對這一點卻不滿足，隻有對所有的事統盤瞭解才能滿足他們，那時他們要說：“從祂豐滿的恩典裏我們都領受了，而且恩上加恩。”聖保羅說：“我也將萬事當作有損的，因我以認識我主耶穌基督當作至寶。”正如有個商人發現一粒名貴的珠子，雖然價錢很高但他變賣一切把它買下，所以我們基督徒也應急於領悟有關基督的豐盛和滿足的愛心和喜樂，祂的聖潔和順服，對天父和世人完全的犧牲，我們基督徒應付上一切的代價完全得著基督。請聽主的話：“這些事我已經對你們說了，是要我的喜樂，存在你們心裏，並且叫你們的喜樂可以滿足。”“你們的心喜樂，這喜樂沒有人能奪去。”“你們求就必得著，叫你們的喜樂可以滿足。”
親愛的讀者：你認識這位擁有一切的基督嗎？或是你過著可憐的生活仍然戀慕世界的享樂？神的意思是要充滿你的心和所戀慕的一切東西，願聖靈把我們今天所看的經文深深刻在我們的心板上。
SEVENTEENTH DAY. The Fulness of Christ.
“And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father), full of grace and truth. For of His fulness we all received, and grace for grace.” –JOHN i. I4, I6
Read these words again and again until you come under the impression of the supreme fullness of Christ. Let the Holy Spirit teach you to worship this Christ as the One in whom dwells all the fullness of the Godhead.
I may receive a purse containing very little or nothing at all, or the purse may contain many golden pounds. There is a great difference between the two! And so with us as Christians. Some receive Christ with the forgiveness of sin and the hope of heaven, and know little of the fullness of Christ, and all the treasure there is in Him. Other Christians are not satisfied, but sacrifice all things, until they can say, “Of His fulness have we received, and grace for grace.” St Paul said:” I count all things loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord.” Like the merchant seeking goodly pearls, when he had found the pearl of great price, sold all that he had in order to buy it, so the Christian who grasps something of the fulness of Christ, the fullness of love and joy, His holiness and obedience, His utter devotion to the Father and to mankind, that Christian gives up all, that he may be united to this Christ. Listen to our Lord’s words: “These things have I spoken unto you, that My joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.” “Your heart shall rejoice and your joy no man taketh away from you.” “Ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.”
Dear Reader, do you know this Christ in whom all fullness dwells? Or do you live as a pauper, depending in a great measure upon the world for joy? It is God’s will that Christ should fill all things, even your heart and its needs. Let the Holy Spirit imprint deeply upon your heart the words of our text in all its fullness.
