经文: 祂复活的大能。（腓立比书三：10）
耶稣的复活是整个基督教的房角石，是我们救恩拱门的楔石。从神圣源头流出的活水泉流，若要将其描述分析，将可写成一本巨册。这源头来自我们亲爱的主，救主耶稣基督的复活。但是能因拥有复活的生命而与复活之主相交，能因脱离属世的自我坟墓而看到祂离开坟墓，这是更宝贵的。教义是经历的基督，但是花比根可爱，因此能经历与复活的救主相交，比教义本身更可爱。相信基督从死里复活，为此歌颂，并从这个熟悉的史实和多人见证的事实中获取所有的慰藉吧！虽然你不能以肉眼见到祂，透过信心之眼，你仍能见到基督耶稣。虽然你不能以手摸到祂，但你有幸能与祂交谈，并且知道祂已经复活，如同你已在祂里面复活并有新生的样式一样。认识钉十架的主已将我所有的罪钉死，这是高度的知识。但是知道复活的救主使我称义，并明白藉着祂自己新生的样式赐我新生命，使我成为新造的人，这是崇高的经历。没有这样的经历我们就不应当满足。但愿你“认识祂并祂复活的大能”。

Scripture: “The power of his resurrection.”(Philippians 3:10)
The doctrine of a risen Saviour is exceedingly precious. The resurrection is the corner-stone of the entire building of Christianity. It is the key-stone of the arch of our salvation. It would take a volume to set forth all the streams of living water which flow from this one sacred source, the resurrection of our dear Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; but to know that he has risen, and to have fellowship with him as such－communing with the risen Saviour by possessing a risen life－seeing him leave the tomb by leaving the tomb of worldliness ourselves, this is even still more precious. The doctrine is the basis of the experience, but as the flower is more lovely than the root, so is the experience of fellowship with the risen Saviour more lovely than the doctrine itself. I would have you believe that Christ rose from the dead so as to sing of it, and derive all the consolation which it is possible for you to extract from this well-ascertained and well-witnessed fact; but I beseech you, rest not contented even there. Though you cannot, like the disciples, see him visibly, yet I bid you aspire to see Christ Jesus by the eye of faith; and though, like Mary Magdalene, you may not “touch” him, yet may you be privileged to converse with him, and to know that he is risen, you yourselves being risen in him to newness of life. To know a crucified Saviour as having crucified all my sins, is a high degree of knowledge; but to know a risen Saviour as having justified me, and to realize that he has bestowed upon me new life, having given me to be a new creature through his own newness of life, this is a noble style of experience: short of it, none ought to rest satisfied. May you both “know him, and the power of his resurrection.” Why should souls who are quickened with Jesus, wear the grave-clothes of worldliness and unbelief? Rise, for the Lord is risen.
