This is a great spiritual principle in the Bible and in our daily Christian life, and it is based on the fact that God created man not to WORK for Him but for man to be satisfied with God and rest with God! Man’s first day on earth after he was created was God’s rest […]
God gave Christ as a light to the nations that He might be God’s salvation to all the world!
God set Christ as a light to all the nations, so that all the nations may receive God’s salvation (Isa. 49:6). When the Lord Jesus came, a great light came to shine in the land of Israel. This light issues in life to regenerate man. On the one hand, John 1:4 says, In Him was […]
Jesus Christ became a covenant to us: He is the Mediator and Executor of the new covenant!
God’s heart’s desire is not for man to serve Him and be submissive to Him; God desires to give all He is to man so that man may enjoy Him and express Him! This is why God created man and put man in front of the tree of life – He wanted man to enjoy […]

in His ascension Christ led us in a train of vanquished foes and made us gifts to the Body of Christ!
There are some window-words in the book of Isaiah through which we can see much more, with the help of the entire Bible, than what Isaiah wrote about these matters. Such words are, as we saw before, SEED, EXTENSION, and, as Isaiah 53:12 reveals, SPOIL. Here is what this verse says, Therefore I will divide to […]
through Christ’s resurrection we became the many grains, the brothers of Christ, and the sons of God!
Praise the Lord for His wonderful resurrection! Christ accomplished so much through His incarnation, crucifixion, and especially through His resurrection! In the book of Isaiah, there are some “windows” into seeing what Christ’s resurrection accomplished – as Isaiah 53:10-11 reveals, When He makes Himself an offering for sin, He will see a seed, He will […]
