一 说话的神乃是借着祂的说话创造宇宙，并且继续作一切的事；因此，每一个得救、从神所生并有祂生命的人，应当学习为祂说话，并且说祂的话─徒五20，林后四13。
A. The speaking God created the universe and continues to do all things through His speaking; therefore, everyone who has been saved, has been begotten of God, and has His life should learn to speak for Him and to speak His word—Acts 5:20; 2 Cor. 4:13.

三 我们必须领悟，我们这些基督徒已经被作成活的基督的见证人；见证人乃是说话的人─一8、22，二32，三15，五32：
C. We need to realize that as believers we have been made witnesses of the living Christ; witnesses are speakers—1:8, 22; 2:32; 3:15; 5:32:

2 基督徒的聚会应该在说话上满了彼此互相─弗五19。
2. Christian meetings should be full of mutuality in speaking—Eph. 5:19.
五 我们这些基督身体的肢体，需要在灵里被充满─18节：
E. As members of the Body of Christ, we need to be filled in spirit—v. 18:
1 那充满我们的，就要从我们里面满溢出来；这满溢就是“用诗章、颂辞、灵歌，彼此对说，从心中向主歌唱、颂咏”─19节。
1. That with which we are filled will overflow from within us; this overflow is "speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and psalming with your heart to the Lord"—v. 19.
2 我们若是在灵里被充满，成为神一切的丰满，就会自然而然地彼此对说基督；因此，说话乃是满溢的路。
2. If we are filled in spirit unto all the fullness of God, we will spontaneously speak to one another concerning Christ; therefore, speaking is the way to overflow.
六 林前十二章十三节启示，基督已经把我们在那灵里浸到身体里，现在我们都得以喝这一位灵：─引用经文

1 我们在那灵里面，那灵也在我们里面─罗八4、6、10~11、14、16。
1. We are in the Spirit, and the Spirit is in us—Rom. 8:4, 6, 10-11, 14, 16.

2. This makes us fully qualified and able to function in the meetings by speaking for the Lord and even by speaking Him forth—1 Cor. 12:13; 14:26, 31.
