1 因着基督教的影响，许多信徒在聚会中不负责任。
1. Due to the influence of Christianity, many believers do not bear responsibility in the meetings.
2 认为我们是来参加聚会，但聚会的责任不是我们的，乃是基本的错误；这是撒但的诡计，要把基督身体的众肢体报废，叫众肢体都不尽功用。
2. The concept that we may attend a meeting but are not responsible for the meeting is a fundamental error; it is a ploy of Satan to render the members of the Body of Christ useless so that they do not function.
七 我们基督徒是基督的肢体，我们最重要的事奉就是聚会─十二4~11、14~27，来十25：
G. As Christians, we are members of Christ, and our most important service is to meet—12:4-11, 14-27; Heb. 10:25:

V. Since the Father's eternal will and the desire of His heart are to build up the church as the Body of Christ, we do His will by functioning in the meetings according to the scriptural way to meet for the building up of the Body—Matt. 7:21; 12:50; Eph. 4:16; 1 Cor. 14:26:
一 信徒的聚会应当总是联于神新约的经纶；我们该带着神圣经纶的异象来到聚会中，并且我们在聚会中所说的，该以神的经纶为中心─提前一4，弗三9，林前十四26。
A. The meetings of the believers should always be linked to God's New Testament economy; we should come to the meetings with a vision of the divine economy, and what we speak in the meetings should focus on the economy of God—1 Tim. 1:4; Eph. 3:9; 1 Cor. 14:26.
二 照着主心意的恢复，乃是要把主的信徒从圣品阶级与平信徒的制度里带出来，以合乎圣经的聚会与事奉之路顶替这制度，好使基督的身体得着建造─26节，弗四12、16。

三 主渴望恢复众人都尽功用的彼此相互的召会聚会，好使基督的身体得着建造─林前十四4下、24上、26、31：
C. The Lord desires to recover the church meetings in mutuality with all functioning for the building up of the Body of Christ—1 Cor. 14:4b, 24a, 26, 31:
1 我们来到召会的聚会中，该有一些出于主的东西与别人分享─26节。
1. When we come to the church meetings, we should have something of the Lord to share with others—v. 26.
2 我们来聚会之前，应当对主有经历，对主的话有享受，并且在祷告中和主有交通，使我们有从主而来，并出于主的东西，借着这些，我们就能为聚会预备自己。
2. Before coming to a meeting, we should prepare ourselves for the meeting with something from the Lord or of the Lord, either through our experience of Him or through our enjoyment of His word and fellowship with Him in prayer.
3 我们必须经营基督，就是我们的美地，使我们从祂的丰富收获出产，带到召会的聚会中献上─西一12，弗三8。
3. We must labor on Christ, our good land, so that we may reap some produce of His riches to bring to the church meeting and offer—Col. 1:12; Eph. 3:8.

5. Whatever we do in the church meeting must be for the building up of the saints and the church—vv. 3-5, 12.
四 我们实行合乎圣经的聚会与事奉之路时强调申言─建造召会的超越恩赐─林前十四1、4下、24~25、31：
D. In the practice of the scriptural way to meet and to serve, we emphasize prophesying—the excelling gift for the building up of the church—vv. 1, 4b, 24-25, 31:
1 在林前十四章里，申言的意义乃是为主说话，说出主来，甚至将主说到、供应到、分赐到人里面；就神圣的分赐而言，整本圣经总结于众人都申言─3、24~25、31节。
1. The significance of prophesying in 1 Corinthians 14 is to speak for the Lord, to speak forth the Lord, and even to speak the Lord, to minister, to dispense, the Lord, into others; in the sense of the divine dispensing, the entire Bible consummates in all prophesying—vv. 3, 24-25, 31.
2 申言，就是以神为内容而为神说话并说出神，将神供应到听者里面，并将他们带给神─25节。

3. God desires that each of the believers prophesy, that is, speak for Him and speak Him forth—vv. 1b, 31; cf. Num. 11:29.
4 申言的特点是供应基督，为着生机的建造召会作基督的身体；申言是为着召会建造的特别恩赐─林前十四3~5、12、24、26。
4. The characteristic of prophesying is to minister Christ for the organic building up of the church as the Body of Christ; prophesying is the particular gift for the building up of the church—1 Cor. 14:3-5, 12, 24, 26.
