150# 信主耶稣基督之人，必将领受这一切属灵能力。因为主本身即是救恩，亦是永生。祂是救恩，因祂是拯救者，这也正是 “耶稣” 这名的本义；祂是永生，因为凡主居于其内、且人安居主内的，就必得永生。故此约翰也称祂为 “永生”（约壹5:20）。
既然主即是救恩与永生，那么一切使人得蒙救恩、获享永生之事，皆全然蕴藏于祂之内。是以改造、重生、更新、赐下属灵生命、圣化、称义、洁净人脱离邪恶，并至终成就拯救的一切作为，尽在主里面。
主在每一个人里面施行这些运行，也就是说，祂恒常努力将这一切赐入人里面。当人自觉调适己心、预备自己以迎接主时，主便将这些运行赐入其内。即便人这份调适与预备的主动作为，其本源也出自主。然而，人若不是凭自由的灵自愿领受，主除了那恒久不息的努力之外，就不能将这些赐入他里面。
150# 那些信主耶稣基督的人会得到前面（TCR 142节）所列举的那些属灵能量，或强大的属灵效果，因为祂自己就是拯救和永生。祂是拯救，因为祂是救主，这就是祂的名字耶稣的含义；祂是永生，因为那些在祂里面，祂也在他们里面的人有永生；因此，祂被称为“永生”（约翰一书5:20）。既然祂是拯救和永生，那么可推知，祂也是获得拯救和永生的一切或全部；因此，祂是改造、重生、更新、复活、成圣、称义、从邪恶中洁净，最终拯救的一切或全部。主在每个人里面运作这些能量，或说执行这些过程，也就是说，祂努力赋予它们，或实施这些效果；当人调整并预备自己来接受时，主就实际赋予它们，或执行这些过程。实现调整和预备的活力本身来自主；但除非人以乐意的灵来接受这些运作，否则主不能超越努力，或说不能赋予这些能量；然而，祂使这种努力不停地如此行。
150. The people who are going to receive the powerful spiritual effects listed above [142] are those who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. He is salvation and eternal life. He is salvation because he is the Savior - this is the meaning of his name, Jesus. He is eternal life because those in whom he is and who are in him have eternal life. He is even called "eternal life" in 1 John 5:20.
Now, because the Lord is salvation and eternal life, it follows that he is also everything that enables us to gain salvation and eternal life. Therefore he is every part of reforming, regenerating, renewing, bringing to life, sanctifying, justifying, purifying from evils, and finally saving. The Lord is carrying out these processes in all of us, meaning that he is trying to have these effects on us; and when we adapt and modify ourselves to receive them, he actually carries them out in us. (Even the acts of adapting and modifying ourselves are actually from the Lord.) If we do not accept the Lord's processes with a willing spirit, he cannot carry them out in us, but his desire to do so remains constant.
150. Those who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ are to receive those spiritual benefits, because He Himself is salvation and everlasting life. He is salvation, because He is the Saviour, for this is the meaning of His name Jesus; He is everlasting life, because those in whom He is, and who are in Him, have everlasting life. This is why He is called everlasting life in 1 John 5:20. Now since He is salvation and everlasting life, it follows that He is also every means which leads to salvation and everlasting life. Thus He is the whole of reformation, regeneration, renewal, quickening, sanctification and justification, cleansing from evils, and finally salvation. In the case of every single person the Lord confers these benefits, or rather, He attempts to impart them; and when a person makes himself ready and suitable to receive them, He does impart them. The activity of readying and making oneself suitable comes from the Lord too, but if the person does not receive them with spontaneity of spirit, then the Lord cannot go beyond the attempt to introduce them, and this attempt is constantly kept up.
150. Those who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ will receive these spiritual energies for the reason that He Himself is salvation and eternal life. He is salvation since He is the Savior; and this is the meaning of His name Jesus; He is eternal life since those in whom He is and who are in Him have eternal life therefore He is called "eternal life" (1 John 5:20). Since, then, He is salvation and eternal life, it follows that He is also all that whereby salvation and eternal life are obtained, consequently He is the all of reformation, regeneration, renewal, vivification, sanctification, justification, purification from evils, and finally salvation. These are made operative by the Lord in every man, that is, the Lord strives to impart them; and He does impart them when man adapts and disposes himself for reception. The essential active force by which adaptation and disposition are effected is from the Lord; but unless man receives these operations with a free spirit the Lord cannot go beyond the effort, which, however, unceasingly continues.
150. Those who believe on the Lord Jesus Christ will receive those spiritual virtues, because He Himself is salvation and eternal life. He is salvation because He is the Savior, which His name, Jesus, means; and eternal life, because those have eternal life in whom He is and who are in Him; therefore also He is called eternal life in 1 John 5:20. Now, because He is salvation and eternal life, it follows that He is all that by which salvation and eternal life are obtained; consequently that He is the all of reformation, regeneration, renewal, vivification, sanctification, justification, purification from evils, and finally salvation. The Lord renders these virtues effective in every man, that is, He endeavors to impart them; and when man adapts and prepares himself for their reception, He does then impart them. The active power itself of adaptation and preparation is also from the Lord; but if the man does not receive them with a willing spirit, the Lord cannot impart these virtues, although He makes the effort to do so without ceasing.
150. Quod credentes in Dominum Jesum Christum accepturi sint spirituales illas virtutes, est quia Ipse est Salus et Vita aeterna, Salus est quia Salvator, haec quoque est nomen Ipsius Jesus, Vita aeterna, quia illis in quibus Ipse est et illi in Ipso, est vita aeterna, quare etiam Ipse vocatur Vita aeterna apud Johannem, I Epist. 5:21 nunc quia est Salus et Vita aeterna, sequitur quod etiam sit omne id per quod salus et vita aeterna obtinentur, proinde quod sit omne reformationis, regenerationis, innovationis, vivificationis, sanctificationis, justificationis, purificationis a malis, et tandem Salvationis; 1 Dominus apud unumquemvis hominem operatur illa, hoc est, conatur inferre illa, et cum homo se accommodat et disponit ad receptionem, infert illa; ipsum activum accommodationis et dispositionis etiam est a Domino, sed si homo non spontaneo 2 spiritu recipit illa, tunc praeter conatum, qui jugiter perstat, non potest inferre.
