the kind of person we are determines the kind of fruit that we produce

July 3, 2012 by aGodMan 4 Comments

In the Lord’s work the principle is that before we can do anything for the Lord we need to allow Him to work Himself into us. The result is not that “we work for the Lord” but that “we work with the Lord” and even “we are the Lord’s work”. We should not do things […]

working with the Lord for the Body and not doing our own personal work

July 2, 2012 by aGodMan 18 Comments

If we would work with the Lord for the Body of Christ, we need to realize that in the Lord’s recovery there is only one work — the work of the Body. God has only one work that He is doing today – the work of building up the Body of Christ. What we are […]

knowing the Body in practice: the universal church and the local churches

June 20, 2012 by aGodMan 6 Comments

On the one hand, we need to know the Body of Christ in life – Christ is the life of the Body of Christ, and the Body is a mingling of divinity with humanity. When we see that the Christ we have received through regeneration is the life of the Body of Christ, we will […]

a trainee’s testimony – the sweetest time is in the saints’ homes (the real family life)

January 3, 2012 by Christian Student 2 Comments

The atmosphere in the homes is very cherishing and not religious at all. Most of all I enjoyed that this is not “the time for professionals showing of their eloquence or good Bible knowledge”. On the contrary, it is a sweet and intimate time for the family to come together to enjoy the sweetest Person in the universe together! It is indeed the real family life and actually the highest life because we all share God’s life. My desire is that this fresh taste I got this autumn I hope will continue after my time in the training so that this becomes a practical part of my daily living.

the Body of Christ builds itself up through all the members growing and functioning in their measure

August 11, 2011 by aGodMan 4 Comments

Many Christians wondered and studied this very important question, How can we build up the Body of Christ? Yes, the Lord Jesus said in Matt. 16:18 that He will build up His church, but how can we as members of the Body contribute to the building up of the Body of Christ? Yes, there are […]

The Central Line of the Bible – the one unique Body of Christ, the organism of the Triune God!

May 13, 2011 by aGodMan 5 Comments

Praise the Lord for His divine revelation in the Bible! In the Bible, there are many things, but there is a CENTRAL LINE, a central revelation, something so basic and so important that all the believers agree with and believe! In our life and service we need to focus not on the “leaves” or “branches” […]
