God is life, Christ is life, and the Spirit gives life. The Triune God as life wants to become our life – and He does it in a very subjective and organic way. He doesn’t “force His way in” us, He just presents Himself before us as food (just like He did in the garden of […]
After the blowing as the North Wind, God the Spirit covers us and broods over us
Our normal experience of Christ always starts with a “stormy wind” – as Ezekiel 1:1 says. God as the Spirit blows upon us to wake us up, to move us to repent of our sins, to turn to God, to believe in the Lord Jesus, to give up the world and anything else to follow […]
It is human to need God; as men, we need God!
I read this tract recently: It’s Human to need God, and I realized that it is so true: as human beings, as men, we need God! It’s not mainly because we are sinners that we need Him – Adam, in the garden of Eden, was not a sinner yet, and still he needed God as […]

even as He is, we will be – His reproduction, His duplication!
I really enjoyed John 12:24 this morning Truly, truly I say to you, unless the grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it abides alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. In the physical world, if you take a grain of wheat and put it anywhere else but in the ground/earth, […]
the seed of man became the son of God!
This is actually our gospel, as Paul said in Rom. 1:1-4, 1. Paul, a slave of Christ Jesus, a called apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, 2. Which He promised beforehand through His prophets in the holy Scriptures, 3. Concerning His Son, who came out of the seed of David according to the flesh, […]
