雅各书 1:18 所他按自己的旨意用真道生了我们，叫我们在他所造的万物中，好像初熟的果子。(现代标点和合本)
James 1:18 Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures. (NKJV)
我们生命的发源地和原材料是：真道。原来，真道是有位格的，祂不是“什么“，而是“谁“。祂是谁呢？正是主基督啊！我们从真道而生，生命每个部分的原材料都以真道为根基，并且活在真道之中。看清楚这真相并对自己说：在真道 (基督) 这坚不可摧的居所里，我与生我之真道成为一灵。而这一灵，正是我这新物种与神联合的生命体，如今居住在圣洁的身体里！阿们！
The source and raw material of our life is the Word of Truth. The Word of truth is personal — it is not a “what,” but a “Who.” And who is He? He is Christ the Lord! We are born of the Word of truth; every part of our life is formed from the Word, and also rooted in the Word, and we live within the Word. See this truth clearly and speak it to yourself: In the unbreakable house of the true Word (Christ), I have become one spirit with the Word who gave birth to me. And this one spirit is the life of a new creation, a new species united with God, now dwelling in a holy body.
