The Church Life is a life of being Headed up in Christ, the Unique Head of the Body

December 14, 2017 by aGodMan 8 Comments

The church life is a life of being headed up. If we truly want to have a glorious church, we must be willing to be headed up. All around us, at school, at work, and in the government, we see nothing but a state of collapse; nothing is headed up. But in the proper church life we are being headed up. This heading up in the church life is the beginning of God’s heading up of all things. Under Christ and through the church, God will head up all things in the universe. This is the mystery of God’s will. Ultimately, the mystery of God’s will in the universe is to head up all things in Christ. Witness Lee, Life-study of Ephesians, p. 70

Having a Genuine Experience of Christ and Being Transformed for the Church Life

December 13, 2017 by aGodMan 8 Comments

The genuine experience of Christ always issues in and requires the church life. The more we experience Christ, the more something within requires that we live in the proper church life. When we experience Christ in a genuine and living way, He will require us to get into the church life because the dispensing of Christ into us is for the producing of the church - Rom. 8:11; 12:2-21. God dispenses Himself into us as everything for the purpose of gaining His corporate expression, which is the church - Eph. 3:16-21. When we take Christ as our life, our person, and our everything, this Christ within us will require the proper church life; in fact, the Christ in us will become the church life.
