The result and issue of our enjoyment of Christ as the flow of life – the life-giving Spirit – is that we become sowers, planters, waterers, begetters, feeders, and builders with the ministry of life for the building up of the church. If we cooperate with the Lord and allow Him to measure us according […]
Everything shall live, Death is Healed, and Life Grows where the River of life Flows
Praise the Lord, everything shall live where the river of life flows from the house of God! This river produces trees with fruits, a lot of fish, and cattle, and this river waters and heals for the producing of life. As long as we have this river, our death is healed and everything shall live. […]
When God’s Light Shines on us, we will be Measured by the House of God for the Body
After revealing the pattern, design, and features of the house of God to Ezekiel in a vision, God instructed him to describe God’s house to God’s people so that they would be measured by the house of God and be ashamed of their iniquities (see Ezek. 43:10-12). This is something very deep, profound, and mysterious, […]
We Experience the Cross as the Center of God’s Building to be Built into the Church
Although we as believers in Christ meet the cross everywhere in our Christian life, we experience the cross in a particular way when we come to the altar at the centre of God’s building, and here the cross becomes our center. The center of the building of the temple of God revealed in a vision […]
The Cross Leads us to the Body and the Cross Operates in the Sphere of the Body
The cross and the experience of the cross is not an end in itself; the cross leads us to the Body of Christ, the cross operates in the sphere of the Body, and in the Body of Christ we cannot go on without the cross. The cross of Christ and the experience of the cross […]

The key for us to experience the humanity of Jesus for God’s building, that is, the secret for us to be Jesusly human for God to gain a corporate expression, is for us to experience the Spirit of Jesus. What God is after in this universe is a building, a corporate expression in humanity, and […]
Being Trained by the Lord Jesus to be Jesusly Human living a Divinely Human Life
![[The Lord's] training was to help the disciples realize that they were mingled with the Triune God, that they were no longer merely human but divinely human, even “Jesusly human.” They were no longer separate from the Triune God, but they could now live a life in which they were one with the processed Triune God. They were no longer merely men but God-men, divine men, with the Triune God as their intrinsic essence to become their divine being.

Because the humanity of Jesus is the only material qualified to be in the building of God, we need to be Jesusly human, that is, the most human of people, those who are under the Lord’s training to let Jesus live in them. The Lord’s death on the cross terminated our old man, crucifying it […]
