God intends to recover the earth for Himself through Christ in the church; the key: a built-up church!
God’s purpose is to be expressed in a corporate way on the earth – throughout the Bible and particularly in the book of Psalms we see that God desires to recover His title, His legal rights, over the whole earth through Christ in the church, through Christ in the house, through Christ in the city.

how lovely is the church, God’s dwelling place! We love being in God’s house, enjoying His presence!

What a wonderful Christ! But […]

the central thought of the book of Psalms is Christ and the church as the house and the city of God

Perhaps Psalms 23 is one of the most popular chapters in the whole Bible. […]
