Unconsciously, every person on earth is under the influence of his culture; when we came into the church life, we brought our culture with us, and this culture undermines our enjoyment of Christ and the church life, hence we need the all-inclusive, extensive Christ to replace our culture. This week we come to the matter […]
The Constituent of the New Man is the All-inclusive, Extensive Christ Replacing Culture
The Christian Life is a Life of Living Christ all the Time, and not Living our Culture
Hallelujah, the Christian life is a life of living Christ – all the time – and not living our culture. By the Lord’s mercy, we can see that our culture is a substitute for Christ, for we live our culture instead of living Christ; however, we should not “drop our culture” but live Christ, and […]
When the All-inclusive Christ is Everything to us, we Live Christ and not our Culture
When we see a vision of the all-inclusiveness and extensiveness of Christ, we will spontaneously drop our culture and anything that replaces Christ in our being and in our living; then, we will live Christ and not our culture.

Culture is necessary, for it preserves us […]

Wow! This is God’s economy, and only […]

Instead of allowing our culture to replace Christ, we need to enjoy and experience the all-inclusive, extensive Christ and allow Him to replace our culture with Himself. Amen! The book of Colossians was written by Paul to both expose culture (which has replaced Christ in the enjoyment and experience of the believers at Colossae) and […]
Human Culture is a Frustration to Experiencing Christ and it Opposes God’s Kingdom
We need to realize that the whole of the human culture opposes God, and culture is a frustration to God’s purpose concerning Christ and the church, for culture frustrates us from experiencing Christ, growing in life, and arriving at a full-grown man. From its very beginning to its development until today throughout the ages, culture […]
