虽然包罗万有的基督是在我们里面，但我们还需要看见祂、认识祂、被祂充满，并且与祂完全成为一─一27，三4。
The all-inclusive Christ is in us, but we need to see Him, know Him, be filled with Him, and become absolutely one with Him—1:27; 3:4.

八
神定旨的完成不是凭我们在埃及享受基督作逾越节的羊羔，也不是凭我们在旷野享受基督作吗哪；只有当祂的子民经历并享受基督作他们的美地，神的定旨才得以完成─弗三8~21。
God's purpose is fulfilled neither by the enjoyment of Christ as the Passover lamb in Egypt nor by the enjoyment of Christ as the manna in the wilderness; rather, God's purpose is fulfilled only when His people experience and enjoy Christ as their good land—Eph. 3:8-21.

九
没有身体，我们就不能享受基督作美地，我们必须与身体是一，为美地争战，以取得美地，并分得美地的一份─民三二1~32，书二二1~9。
We cannot enjoy Christ as the good land without the Body; we must be one with the Body to fight for the land, to possess the land, and to share our portion of the land—Num. 32:1-32; Josh. 22:1-9.

十二
因着很少基督徒（包括我们在内）像保罗那样追求包罗万有的基督，以赢得祂，所以神需要得胜者─腓三8，12。
Because very few Christians, including us, are like Paul in pursuing the all-inclusive Christ in order to gain Him, God needs the overcomers—Phil. 3:8, 12.

没有一个难题是会大过基督的，也没有一个局面是祂不能顾到的。
There is no problem that is greater than Christ, and there is no situation that He cannot cover.
There is no problem that is greater than Christ, and there is no situation that He cannot cover.

ｄ
我们若将我们到现在为止对延展无限之基督的经历，与祂宇宙般的量度相比较，就像一粒水滴之于洋海。
If we compare what we have experienced thus far of the extensive Christ in His universal dimensions, it is like comparing a raindrop to an ocean.
