a wonderful two-way traffic for us to enjoy the Father through the Son in the Spirit

This is so wonderful! These verses in Eph 2:16-18 show us that we have access unto the Father through the Son and in the Spirit! When the Lord Jesus came to us as God embodied, He came with the Father (John 8:29; 16:32) and in the name of the Father (John 5:43). The Father planned […]

the word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart, Christ as the living Word is so available!

Last night in our home meeting we were enjoying the fact that the Apostle Paul saw Christ everywhere in the Old Testament. Even in Deut. 30:12 where there was the re-speaking of the law and the question, “Do not say in your heart, Who will ascend into heaven?” came up – even here, Paul saw […]

the Word of life is “an appetizer” to our enjoying God as the eternal life as “many courses”

Isn’t that true? When you read the first Epistle of John chapter one you see that John starts in a mysterious way to introduce something of the eternal life – and he begins with The Word Of Life… Just as before a large meal – like dinner – we sometimes have an appetizer, so when […]

the Spirit applies to us all that God in Christ has attained, obtained, and accomplished!

God’s economy is to make man the same as He is in life and in nature but not in the Godhead

The Triune God has a heart’s desire – see Eph. 1:5, 9 – and in order to accomplish His heart’s desire, God made an economy (Eph. 1:10; 3:9) – God’s eternal economy! Daily people write and talk about the human economy – which is collapsing / going down, even though many try their best to […]

today God the Father is glorified in the Son and Christ the Son is glorified in the church

This morning I was encouraged by the Lord’s prayer in John 17:22-23, where He says, And the glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, even as We are one; I in them, and You in Me, that they may be perfected into one, that the world […]

we are becoming the house of His beauty by receiving His daily dispensing in His Word

How wonderful – God is beautified in His church, and the church is the house of His beauty! By putting Himself into us as the Spirit and the word, Christ becomes our beauty, brightness, and splendor! When we get into the Word of God, as Eph 5:26-27 says, we are being washed, cleansed, purified, and […]
