经过过程的三一神，重新构成我们
林后三、四章是哥林多前后书里最重要的两章。在这两卷书信里，没有别章比这两章更着重的说到，为着更深的生命经历而有之基督的构成。保罗看自己是罪人中的罪魁。这样一个背叛神的人，怎能成为新约的执事，就是基督的执事，来执行神的经纶？保罗要成为基督的执事，首先要重生，然后要被重新构成。一个人要成为新约的执事，单单重生是不够的，他还需要被重新组织、重新安排、重新构成。
然而，新的构成需要新的元素。如果没有任何元素作为新构成的素质，我们就不可能被构成。基督的救赎把我们带回来归给神，但是基督的救赎并没有作构成的工作。这项工作需要在基督救赎的血之外，另加一种元素。这元素不仅是生命或那灵，乃是经过过程的神。成为肉体、人性生活、钉十字架与复活，神经过的这四个主要步骤，就是经过过程之神的成分，作为用以构成我们的元素。基督藉着祂的复活，将神所拣选、所救赎的子民带进神里面。成为肉体是将神带进人里面，复活是将人带进神里面。
我们这些神所救赎的人，不仅有神在我们里面，我们也在神里面。神在我们里面，这实在是好；但我们得以在神里面，更是好得无比。我靠着主的怜悯能作见证，我的确感觉到、觉察到自己是一个在神里面的人。表面看，我是一个在地上生活的人；实际上，我是一个在神里面的人。神在我里面，我也在神里面。藉着成为肉体，神已经被带进我们里面；藉着基督的复活，我们也已经被带进神里面。这是三一神，就是经过过程的神。经过过程的三一神，乃是构成我们的元素。

The Processed Triune God Reconstitute Us – 1 Cor. 4:6
Chapters 3 and 4 of 2 Corinthians are the most important chapters in both 1 and 2 Corinthians. In these two epistles, no other chapters emphasize more the matter of Christ’s constitution within us for a deeper experience of life. Paul regarded himself as the foremost of sinners. How could such a person, one who had rebelled against God, become a minister of the New Covenant — a minister of Christ — executing God’s economy? For Paul to become a minister of Christ, he first had to be regenerated, and then he had to be reconstituted. For someone to become a minister of the New Testament, mere regeneration is not enough. He also needs to be reorganized, re-arranged and reconstituted.
However, a new constitution requires new elements. Without any new elements as the substance of this new constitution, there is no way we could be reconstituted. Christ’s redemption brings us back to God, but Christ’s redemption alone does not do the work of constitution. This work requires an additional element beyond the redeeming blood of Christ. This element is not merely life or the Spirit; it is the processed God Himself. God has gone through four major steps — incarnation, human living, crucifixion and resurrection. These four steps form the components of the processed God, which become the elements used to reconstitute us. Through His resurrection, Christ brings God’s chosen and redeemed people into God. Incarnation brings God into man; resurrection brings man into God.
We, the redeemed of God, not only have God within us, we are also in God. That God is in us is indeed wonderful; but that we are in God is even more marvelous. I can testify, by the Lord’s mercy, that I genuinely sense and am aware that I am a person who is in God. Outwardly, I am a person living on the earth; inwardly, I am one who lives in God. God is in me, and I am in God. Through incarnation, God has been brought into us; through Christ’s resurrection, we also have been brought into God. This is the Triune God — the processed God. The processed Triune God is the element that constitutes us.
