Hallelujah, in His resurrection Christ became the Spirit for us to receive Him as the holy breath simply by calling on His name day by day! God’s intention is to gain a corporate God-man for His corporate manifestation in this universe; what He desires is not a good man but a God-man, a man of […]
Enjoy and Experience Christ as our Life and Everything by Exercising our Spirit
We need to see and realize inwardly that God doesn’t want anything other than Christ Himself; His goal is to recover Christ as everything to us, and this Christ needs to be subjective to us as the Spirit. Like the apostle Paul, we need to pursue Christ, seek to know Him, enjoy Him, and […]
The Spirit is the Spirit of Reality, the Spirit of Jesus, and the Spirit of Christ

The Center of Paul’s Gospel – Romans chapter 8, God’s dispensing, and the sonship
The center of Paul’s gospel is Romans chapter 8. Here he unveils the dispensing of the Triune God as life into the tripartite man. This is the focus of God’s economy: God coming into us to be our life so that we may be His corporate expression. This is experiential. The law of the Spirit of life (v. 2) is the Triune God operating in us. He first makes our spirit life (v. 10) then spreads to make our mind life (v. 6), then to impart life to our mortal body (v. 11) and to enable us to put to death all our natural living (v. 13). By this spreading of life within, we mature from children (v. 16) to sons (read more in 8:14, note 3). The goal of this expanding dispensation is our conformation to the image of God’s firstborn Son (v. 29). Lord, daily spread Yourself in our entire being until we fully express You.
