This morning I was so touched with the fact that many times we think we hate religion – just like God hates religion – but actually, we may still be religious ourselves. We realize that everything that God does is new, not in a form or name/denomination or a human endeavour/work, and the divine life […]
God’s eternal purpose as revealed in the seven figures in Genesis 2
While reading and enjoying Genesis chapter 2, with the help of the Life-Study and the footnotes in the Recovery Version, I was impressed with the seven figures presented in Genesis 2.

learning to live a life together with the Lord, contacting Him moment by moment

Human beings are predictable; generally, one gives something in return for something of a perceived equal or greater value. I know when I become consumed by something, there is […]
what price are you willing to pay in order to get the unsearchable riches of Christ?
The word I heard this past weekend was hard, heartbreaking, but it was exactly what I needed. Thank You, Lord, for Your perfect care for us. The conference this weekend in Leiden was on Being Saved in Life by Reigning in Life for the Body Life. The last messages was on Joseph’s reigning in life […]
