以弗所一章十节启示，在时期满足时的经纶里，神要借着召会将万有在基督里归一于一个元首之下；神对召会之定旨的这一面与建造有关─二21~22，四16：
Ephesians 1:10 reveals that in the economy of the fullness of the times, God will head up all things in Christ through the church; this aspect of God's purpose for the church involves building—2:21-22; 4:16:

一
建造是在神圣的生命里并在基督的元首权柄之下，要将我们众人带进正确的等次；我们在生命里、在基督元首权柄之下被建造起来，借此神就有立场使诸天界里执政的、掌权的，得知祂万般的智慧，使祂能叫祂的仇敌蒙羞─一10，三10~11。
The building is in the divine life and under the headship of Christ to bring us all into proper order; in life we are built up under the headship of Christ, and through this God has the ground to make His multifarious wisdom known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenlies so that He may put His enemy to shame—1:10; 3:10-11.

元首和身体是伟大的团体人，在这人里有三一神─二15，三16~17上：

基督是元首，借着作我们的生命，浸透、变化我们，并使我们改变形状，而将我们带进祂元首权柄之下的正确等次中。
Christ is the Head, and by being life to us He saturates, transforms, and transfigures us to bring us into the proper order under His headship.
Christ is the Head, and by being life to us He saturates, transforms, and transfigures us to bring us into the proper order under His headship.
２
借着这身体，元首基督要使万有归一于一个元首之下；这需要召会作基督的身体，照着以弗所书中的启示建造起来─四12、16。
It is through this Body that the Head, Christ, will head up all things; this requires the building up of the church as the Body of Christ according to the revelation in the book of Ephesians—4:12, 16.

三
基督建造召会，是借着把祂自己建造到我们里面，就是进到我们的灵里，并从我们的灵扩展到我们的心思、情感和意志里，好占有我们的全人─提后四22，林前六17，弗三17上。
Christ builds the church by building Himself into us, that is, by entering into our spirit and spreading Himself from our spirit into our mind, emotion, and will to occupy our entire being—2 Tim. 4:22; 1 Cor. 6:17; Eph. 3:17a.

四
在以弗所三章十六至二十一节，保罗为信徒能对内住的基督有内里的经历祷告，为着建造召会作基督的身体：
In Ephesians 3:16-21 Paul prayed concerning the believers' inner experience of the indwelling Christ for the building up of the church as the Body of Christ:
In Ephesians 3:16-21 Paul prayed concerning the believers' inner experience of the indwelling Christ for the building up of the church as the Body of Christ:
１
保罗祷告，要我们得以加强到里面的人里，结果基督就能安家在我们心里，进而以祂自己来占有、得着、浸润并浸透我们整个里面的人─16~17节上：
Paul prayed that we would be strengthened into the inner man with the result that Christ could make His home in our hearts and thereby occupy, possess, permeate, and saturate our whole inner being with Himself— vv. 16-17a:
Paul prayed that we would be strengthened into the inner man with the result that Christ could make His home in our hearts and thereby occupy, possess, permeate, and saturate our whole inner being with Himself— vv. 16-17a:
ａ
因着我们的心是我们内里各部分的总和，也是我们里面之人的中心，以及有关我们倾向、感情、喜好和愿望的代表；所以，当基督安家在我们心里，祂就掌管我们里面的全人，并用祂自己供应、加强我们内里的各部分。
Since our heart is the totality of our inward parts, the center of our in-ward being, and our representative with regard to our inclination, affection, delight, and desire, when Christ makes His home in our hearts, He controls our entire inward being and supplies and strengthens every inward part with Himself.
Since our heart is the totality of our inward parts, the center of our in-ward being, and our representative with regard to our inclination, affection, delight, and desire, when Christ makes His home in our hearts, He controls our entire inward being and supplies and strengthens every inward part with Himself.
ｂ
基督越多在我们里面扩展，就越多定居且安家在我们里面，占有、得着我们里面的每一部分，并以祂自己浸透各部分。
The more Christ spreads within us, the more He settles down in us and makes His home in us, occupying every part of our inner being, possessing all these parts, and saturating them with Himself.
The more Christ spreads within us, the more He settles down in us and makes His home in us, occupying every part of our inner being, possessing all these parts, and saturating them with Himself.
２
当基督能够安家在我们心里，占有我们全人内里的各部分，我们就能与所有圣徒建造在一起─二21~22，四12、16：
When Christ is able to make His home in our hearts, occupying all the in-ward parts of our being, we will be able to be built up with all the saints— 2:21-22; 4:12, 16:
When Christ is able to make His home in our hearts, occupying all the in-ward parts of our being, we will be able to be built up with all the saints— 2:21-22; 4:12, 16:
ａ
为要使基督在马太十六章十八节关于建造召会的话得着应验，召会必须进入一种情形，就是许多圣徒让基督深深地安家在他们心里，得着、占有并浸透他们里面的全人。
In order for Christ's word in Matthew 16:18 concerning the building up of the church to be fulfilled, the church must enter into a state where many saints will allow Christ to make His home deep in their heart, possessing, occupying, and saturating their entire inner being.
In order for Christ's word in Matthew 16:18 concerning the building up of the church to be fulfilled, the church must enter into a state where many saints will allow Christ to make His home deep in their heart, possessing, occupying, and saturating their entire inner being.

基督越多占有我们里面的人，我们就越能在身体里与别人建造在一起─弗二21~22，四12、16。
The more Christ occupies our inner being, the more we will be able to be built up with others in the Body—Eph. 2:21-22; 4:12, 16.
The more Christ occupies our inner being, the more we will be able to be built up with others in the Body—Eph. 2:21-22; 4:12, 16.
３
以弗所三章十七节说到在爱里生根立基：
Ephesians 3:17 speaks of being rooted and grounded in love:
Ephesians 3:17 speaks of being rooted and grounded in love:
ａ
生根，指明我们是植物；立基，意即我们是建筑。
That we are rooted indicates that we are plants, and our being grounded means that we are a building.
That we are rooted indicates that we are plants, and our being grounded means that we are a building.
ｂ
生根和立基这两面合在一起，指明我们需要长大并被建造。
Together the two aspects, rooted and grounded, indicate that we need to grow and be built up.
Together the two aspects, rooted and grounded, indicate that we need to grow and be built up.
４
根据十八节，我们能领略基督的量度─阔、长、高、深，不是凭我们个人，乃是“和众圣徒”团体共同来领略；这启示出我们必须被建造在一起。
According to verse 18, we are able to apprehend the dimensions of Christ— the breadth, the length, the height, and the depth—not by ourselves individually but "with all the saints," that is, corporately and jointly; this reveals that we need to be built together.

５
当基督安家在我们心里，我们就被充满，成为神一切的丰满；这丰满就是召会，基督的身体，作三一神团体的彰显─19节。
When Christ makes His home in our hearts, we will be filled unto all the fullness of God; this fullness is the church, the Body of Christ, as the corporate expression of the Triune God—v. 19.
When Christ makes His home in our hearts, we will be filled unto all the fullness of God; this fullness is the church, the Body of Christ, as the corporate expression of the Triune God—v. 19.
６
我们要专注于这祷告到一个地步，除了这事之外，我们就不知要为什么祷告。
We should focus on this prayer to the extent that we do not know what to pray other than this.
We should focus on this prayer to the extent that we do not know what to pray other than this.
五
以弗所三章十六至二十一节，表明了保罗的灵和态度，以及他的祷告和信心：
Ephesians 3:16-21 shows Paul's spirit, attitude, prayer, and faith:
Ephesians 3:16-21 shows Paul's spirit, attitude, prayer, and faith:
１
保罗照着启示得知基督的奥秘（3~6）；所以，他的灵和态度，他眼睛所看见的，口里所说的，心上所挂着的，都是关于这异象，就是借着对内住基督的内里经历而建造召会作基督的身体：
By revelation the mystery of Christ was made known to Paul (vv. 3-6); thus, his spirit and attitude—what he saw, what he said, and what he cared about in his heart—were related to the vision of the building up of the church as the Body of Christ through the inner experience of the indwelling Christ:

ｂ
保罗在这异象上已经完全着迷，这是他的灵，他的态度；所以他有在十六至二十一节这样的祷告。
Paul was obsessed with this vision, and it became his spirit and attitude; therefore, he had such a prayer as recorded in Ephesians 3:16-21.
Paul was obsessed with this vision, and it became his spirit and attitude; therefore, he had such a prayer as recorded in Ephesians 3:16-21.
