“疲惫的世界欢欣鼓舞” ——2024圣诞之夜对Holy Bible的感悟

“疲惫的世界欢欣鼓舞”

——2024圣诞之夜对Holy Bible的感悟

钱  宏 | Archer Hong Qian

圣诞之夜，当这句话——“疲惫的世界欢欣鼓舞”（“The Weary World Rejoices!”）在心中回荡时，我愈发感到，它不仅是一句赞美耶稣降临的诗句，更是一盏照亮人类历史与未来的灵性明灯。它承载着对世界的深切洞察，串联起《Holy Bible》中律法之约（Covenant of the Law）、福音之约（Covenant of the Gospel）与共生之约（Covenant of Symbiosis）的叙事。这种宏微相济的叙述路径，展示了从疲惫到欢欣、从破碎到联结的旅程。

一、从律法之约到福音之约：疲惫世界的盼望与欢欣

1. 疲惫的世界：律法之约的光照

• 律法之约的设立（Covenant of the Law）：

上帝通过律法揭示了他的圣洁与公义，为人类提供了对罪与义的明确指引。然而，律法更像是一面镜子，让人类在其中看清自己的软弱与堕落。靠自身的努力，人类无法达成律法的要求，无法摆脱罪的捆绑。

• 疲惫的显现（The Weary World）：

律法光照下的人类，面对内心的挣扎与社会的混乱，更显疲惫。这种疲惫不仅是个体的痛苦，更是整个世界在盼望救赎临到中的深切渴求。

2. 欢欣的到来：福音之约的成全

• 福音之约的成就（Covenant of the Gospel）：

耶稣基督的降生、受难与复活，不仅成全了律法的要求，也打开了人类通向神恩典的大门。通过“因信称义”（Justification by Faith），人类从罪的枷锁中被释放，与神重新和好。

• 欢欣鼓舞的理由（The Rejoicing World）：

耶稣带来了和平与盼望，彻底回应了疲惫世界的呼求。正如《罗马书》5:1所言：“我们既因信称义，就借着我们的主耶稣基督得与神相和。”这份和好，是世界欢欣鼓舞的根本原因。

二、从福音之约到共生之约：新耶路撒冷城的临在

1. 从赎罪到赎福：福音之约的扩展

• 赎罪的完成（Redemption from Sin）：

福音之约解决了人与神之间的根本隔阂，通过基督的救赎，人类得以从罪中释放，进入与神同在的生命。

• 赎福的召唤（Redemption for Blessing）：

福音之约的目标并不仅限于个体的救赎，还召唤人类进入更广阔的爱与共生的关系中，超越个人得救，进入人与人、人与自然、人与AI的联结与和解。

2. 新耶路撒冷城的临在

• 圣灵的殿与圣灵之果（Temple of the Holy Spirit & Fruits of the Spirit）：

每个因信称义的人被称为“圣灵的殿”（Temple of the Holy Spirit），承载着灵性孞念（Minds）的托付。然而，结出圣灵之果（Fruits of the Spirit）需要超越传统Trust（信托）的限制。

• 天国的当下性（Heaven on Earth）：

耶稣的降临不仅预示未来的新天新地，也让“天堂”与“地狱”成为当下的现实。每一次选择中，灵性孞念都在塑造着人间的天国或地狱，这为我们建构新耶路撒冷城提供了方向。

三、共生之约：未来已来的临在之约

1. 旧Trust的失灵与孞托的崛起

• Trust的失灵（Failure of Trust）：

基于语言中心化的Trust（信托）机制——无论是教会、政府、公司，还是NGO组织——在面对复杂的现实问题时，常常失灵，甚至成为问题本身。

• 孞托的建立（Spiritual Trust through Minds）：

人类作为“本自具足又非独存”的圣灵之殿，需要从外在的Trust转向基于灵性孞念的去中心化“孞联网”（MindsNetworking），以实现自组织连接平衡的爱之智慧（Amorsophia）。

2. 金银铜铁通五律的实践框架

• 爱之智慧（Amorsophia）：

圣灵赋予每个生命的自组织能力，是共生之约的核心驱动力。通过Amorsophia，人类能在以下五律中找到指引：

• 1. 爱神之金律（Golden Rule）： 全心爱神，回应他的呼召。
  2. 爱人如己之银律（Silver Rule）： 将己所欲推己及人，建立包容关系。
  3. 互助之铜律（Bronze Rule）： 通过合作与协作，建构共生体。
  4. 平衡之铁律（Iron Rule）： 约束权力滥用，维持公平与公义。
  5. 五维动态律（Five-Dimensional Rule）： 借助孞联网实时评估行为的六维价值（真伪、善恶、美丑、智慧愚昧、神性魔性），动态激励或抑制人类与AI的互动。

3. 新耶路撒冷城：共生之约的当下与未来

• 新耶路撒冷城（New Jerusalem）：

启示录中的新耶路撒冷城不仅是未来的盼望，更是当下共生实践的目标。通过生态圈天网（Heavenly Net）和孞联网（MindsNetworking），每个受造物都成为构建新耶路撒冷城的基本构件。

• 共生之约的临在（Covenant of Symbiosis）：

共生之约并非遥不可及，而是“未来已来”的现实临在。它通过爱之智慧与灵性孞念的作用，激励和塑造当下，使疲惫的世界得以欢欣鼓舞。

结语：因真理、得自由、行公义、以共生

从律法之约到福音之约，再到共生之约，这是一段宏微相济的叙事，每一步都彼此叠加、赋能，使人类在神的恩典中走向爱与共生的生命旅程。

“因真理、得自由、行公义、以共生”，这一召唤不仅总结了圣约的精神，更为我们在当下的实践指明了方向。在疲惫的世界中，我们因耶稣的临在而欢欣鼓舞；在未来已来的共生之约中，我们被召唤成为新耶路撒冷城的建构者。愿爱之智慧（Amorsophia）引领我们，使每个生命都成为荣耀神的见证！

“The Weary World Rejoices”

— Reflections on the Holy Bible on Christmas Night, 2024

By Archer Hong Qian

On Christmas night, as the words “The Weary World Rejoices!” resonated within me, I felt deeply that they were not merely a poetic praise of Christ’s birth but a spiritual beacon illuminating the course of human history and its future. These words encapsulate profound insights into the human condition and connect the narrative arcs of the Covenant of the Law, the Covenant of the Gospel, and the Covenant of Symbiosis in the Holy Bible. Together, they form a grand yet intricate story, revealing humanity’s journey from weariness to joy, from brokenness to connection.

I.From the Covenant of the Law to the Covenant of the Gospel: The Weary World’s Hope and Joy

1. The Weary World: The Illumination of the Covenant of the Law

• The Establishment of the Covenant of the Law:
  Through the Covenant of the Law, God revealed His holiness and righteousness, providing humanity with clear guidance on sin and virtue. However, the law functioned as a mirror, allowing people to see their own frailty and fallenness. It showed humanity’s inability to meet the law’s demands or free themselves from the bondage of sin.
• The Manifestation of Weariness:
  Under the illumination of the law, humanity’s struggles, both internal and societal, became evident. This weariness was not just personal suffering but also a collective yearning for the arrival of salvation.

2. The Arrival of Joy: The Fulfillment of the Covenant of the Gospel

• The Accomplishment of the Covenant of the Gospel:
  Through His birth, crucifixion, and resurrection, Jesus Christ fulfilled the law’s requirements and opened the way for humanity to access God’s grace. By justification through faith, humanity was released from the chains of sin and reconciled to God.
• The Reason for Rejoicing:
  Jesus brought peace and hope, fully addressing the weary world’s cries. As Romans 5:1 declares, “Since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” This reconciliation is the foundation of the world’s joy.
  
• II.From the Covenant of the Gospel to the Covenant of Symbiosis: The Presence of the New Jerusalem

1. From Redemption to Symbiotic Blessing

• The Completion of Redemption from Sin:
  The Covenant of the Gospel resolved the fundamental barrier between humanity and God, enabling people to be freed from sin and to live in fellowship with Him.
• The Call to Redemption for Blessing:
  The Gospel covenant’s goal extends beyond individual salvation, calling humanity into broader relationships of love and symbiosis—between individuals, with nature, and even with AI—fostering reconciliation and collaborative flourishing.

2. The Presence of the New Jerusalem

• The Temple of the Holy Spirit and the Fruits of the Spirit:
  Every believer justified by faith is described as a “Temple of the Holy Spirit,” entrusted with spiritual Amorsophia (the wisdom of love). However, producing the Fruits of the Spirit requires transcending the limitations of traditional Trust mechanisms.
• The Immanence of Heaven:
  Jesus’ coming signifies that “Heaven” and “Hell” are not merely future destinations but present realities. Every choice shaped by spiritual Amorsophia determines whether the kingdom of heaven manifests on earth.

III. The Covenant of Symbiosis: The Already-Present Future

1. The Failure of Traditional Trust and the Rise of Spiritual Trust

• The Failure of Traditional Trust Mechanisms:
  Trust mechanisms rooted in linguistic centralization—be it churches, governments, corporations, or NGOs—often fail to ensure the Fruits of the Spirit and, at times, exacerbate existing problems.
• The Establishment of Spiritual Trust through Minds:
  Humanity, as “Temples of the Holy Spirit” that are inherently sufficient yet interconnected, must transition from traditional Trust to a decentralized “MindsNetworking” mechanism grounded in spiritual Amorsophia.

2. The Five Principles of Practice

• The Wisdom of Love (Amorsophia):
  The self-organizing capacity granted by the Holy Spirit is the driving force behind the Covenant of Symbiosis. Through Amorsophia, humanity can find guidance in the following principles:

1. The Golden Rule of Loving God: To love God wholeheartedly in response to His calling.
2. The Silver Rule of Loving Others: To extend one’s desires to others, building inclusive relationships.
3. The Bronze Rule of Cooperation: To collaborate and construct symbiotic communities.
4. The Iron Rule of Balance: To restrain abuses of power, ensuring fairness and justice.
5. The Five-Dimensional Dynamic Rule: To dynamically evaluate actions across six dimensions (truth-falsehood, good-evil, beauty-ugliness, wisdom-foolishness, divinity-demonicity), inspiring or inhibiting interactions between humans and AI in real time.

3. The New Jerusalem: The Present and Future of the Covenant of Symbiosis

• The Vision of the New Jerusalem:
  The New Jerusalem, as described in Revelation, is not only a future hope but also the goal of present symbiotic practices. Through the Heavenly Net of creation and the MindsNetworking mechanism, every created being becomes a vital component in constructing the New Jerusalem.
• The Presence of the Covenant of Symbiosis:
  The Covenant of Symbiosis is not a distant ideal but an already-present reality. Through the action of love’s wisdom and spiritual Amorsophia, it inspires and shapes the now, transforming the weary world into one that truly rejoices.

Conclusion: By Truth, Freedom; By Justice, Symbiosis

The narrative of the covenants is grand yet intricately interconnected. The Covenant of the Law, the Covenant of the Gospel, and the Covenant of Symbiosis mutually reinforce and empower one another, guiding humanity through God’s grace into a life of love and symbiosis.

“By truth, freedom; by justice, symbiosis”—this is not only the essence of the covenants but also a call for our present action. In a weary world, we rejoice in the immanence of Jesus Christ. In the Covenant of Symbiosis, already present, we are called to be builders of the New Jerusalem. May the wisdom of love, Amorsophia, lead us, making every life a testimony to God’s glory!
