The Spirit of Jesus Christ who “was not yet” in John 7:39 is Our Bountiful Supply Today!

We praise the Lord for the truth in the Bible and for the recovery of the proper interpretation of the truth concerning the Spirit as the consummation of the Triune God.

In the Triune God, Christ the Son is the Expression of the Father (part 2)

In his Gospel John speaks again and again about the Triune God – the Father as the source, the Son as the expression, and the Spirit as the realization. God the Father is mysterious, hidden, and no human eye has ever seen Him. But the Son who is in the bosom of the Father has […]

There are many aspects to arriving at a full-grown man, at the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ. One of these aspects is that we need to carry out the stewardship of God to present every man full-grown in Christ (see Col. 1:24-29). Paul was entrusted by God with a ministry – […]
