If we read John 1:42 and Matt. 16:18 we will realise that both Christ and the believers are living stones for God’s building, and that God’s goal is to have a spiritual house built up with living stones. Yes, Christ is the living stone, and we are born as men of clay, but through regeneration, […]
Drink the Word to Grow and be Transformed to be Living Stones for God’s Building
The more we Grow in Life, the more we are Headed up in Christ by His Life and Light
The heading up in Christ in the church life is by life and light; first God comes into us as life to swallow any death, then the light of life shines in us to dispel the darkness, and we are headed up in Christ, being under the light as we grow in life. Wow! It […]

Seeing that the Flesh is the Leading Enemy Frustrating us from Going on with the Lord
In Exodus 15 we see the song of praise the children of Israel sang after Pharaoh and his armies were swallowed by the Red Sea; in Exodus 17 we see a picture showing the continual war with Amalek. Exodus 17 is after Exodus 15, and the war in Exodus 17 is after the victory in […]
