五 基督居第一位,意思就是,祂乃是一切;基督既然在宇宙中和召会中都居第一位,祂在宇宙中和召会中就必是一切—三10~11。 E For Christ to be the first means that He is all; since Christ is the first both in the universe and in the church, He must be all things in the universe and in the church—3:10-11.

1 我们个人的宇宙包括我们自己、我们的家庭以及召会。 1 Our personal universe includes ourselves, our families, and the church.

四 我们要让基督在凡事上居首位,就必须愿意受调整、被破碎、成为无有,使主在我们里面、借着我们并在我们中间,能有路建造祂生机的身体—弗三17,四16。 D In order to give Christ the preeminence in all things, we must be willing to be adjusted, to be broken, and to be made nothing so that the Lord can have a way in us, through us, and among us for the building up of His organic Body—Eph. 3:17; 4:16.

肆 基督应该在我们的爱上居首位—启二4: Ⅳ Christ should have the preeminence in our love—Rev. 2:4:
一 让主在凡事上居首位,就是用起初的爱来爱祂;我们需要维持并发展我们向主起初的爱—4节。 A To give the Lord the first place in all things is to love Him with the first love; we need to maintain and develop our first love toward the Lord—v. 4.
二 人无论爱什么,他的全心,甚至全人,都是摆在所爱的上面,被其霸占并得着—提前六10,提后三2~4,四8、10上,多一8。 B Whatever one loves, his whole heart, even his whole being, is set on and occupied and possessed by—1 Tim. 6:10; 2 Tim. 3:2-4; 4:8, 10a; Titus 1:8.
三 召会究竟会不会有得胜的荣耀日子,还是败落的痛苦日子,乃在于我们是那一类的爱者—启二4,提后三2~4。 C Whether there would be a day of glory in the church’s victory or grievous days of the church’s decline depends on what kind of love we have—Rev. 2:4; 2 Tim. 3:2-4.

伍 基督应该在我们三部分的人里居首位—西一27,三4、10~11、15~16: Ⅴ Christ should have the preeminence in our tripartite being—Col. 1:27; 3:4, 10-11, 15-16:
一 我们敬拜在诸天之上登宝座的基督,但我们经历、享受并有分于我们灵里内住的基督;我们非常主观地与祂是一 —1节,林前六17,弗三17: A We worship the enthroned Christ in the heavens, but we experience, enjoy, and partake of the indwelling Christ in our spirit; we are one with Him in a very subjective way—v. 1; 1 Cor. 6:17; Eph. 3:17:

二 因为基督是我们的生命,祂所有的一切、祂所达到并所得着的一切,对我们就都成为主观的;就宇宙一面说,基督是延展无限的,但在我们的经历中,祂是我们的生命,我们的所是—4节,罗八34、10。 B Because Christ is our life, all He has and all He has attained and obtained become subjective to us; universally, Christ is extensive, but in our experience, He is our life, our being—v. 4; Rom. 8:34, 10.
