“Death operates in us, but life in you” (2 Cor. 4:12). In order for the divine life to be richly imparted into the members of the Body, some need to experience the cross and actively allow the death of Christ to operate in them. Just like Paul, we need to be open to the Lord […]
Ministering Life to the Body by Experiencing Christ in the Body and For the Body
We have seen that Christ lived a sacrificing life for producing new wine to cheer God and man, and that today we as His believers should live the same kind of life for God’s satisfaction and man’s joy. We need to live a sacrificing life today, and this life is in the Body and for […]
