the surpassing greatness of His power towards us who believe

This morning I was enjoying again this portion from Paul’s prayer in Ephesians 1:18-22, which says 18. The eyes of your heart having been enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of His calling, and what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19. And what is the surpassing […]

God’s heart’s desire and His eternal purpose, His economy, are related to man!

From eternity past to eternity future, God was, is, and will be. He simply exists: He existed even before time began! But at one point there was a council in the divine Trinity – The Triune God took a decision, He had a counsel – He wants a corporate expression in this universe (Gen 1:26)! For this, […]

the divine history within the human history, God’s economy and purpose

In school we are being taught about the history of our nation & the history of the continent we live in & the history of the world. We daily hear/watch news about the leaders of the countries taking certain decisions, events taking place in different parts of the world, wars, good news or bad news. […]

just as in Paul’s case, it should matter to the church whether we live or die

Paul was a normal Christian: one who lived Christ, magnified Christ, ministered Christ, and infused Christ into others.

In all he did/said the others saw Christ living in him […]

God is glorified in the church, where His wisdom is made known to His enemy!

God’s original intention in creating man is expressed in Genesis 1:26 “Let Us make man in our image and according to our likeness, and let them have dominion over…” – Image and Dominion. Image: God wants to be expressed, manifested, shown to the entire universe in what the depth of His riches are – He […]

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 […]

we are now in the process of becoming like Him

God became a man in the Lord Jesus Christ for the purpose of making us also the same as He is! His hearts’ desire is to have man as His counterpart (Rev. 19:7), His expression, the same as He is. That’s why He “bothered” / “took the pain” of becoming a man: the infinite God […]
