Dear saints, let us pray that the saints would proclaim the glad tidings concerning the wonderful person of Christ and His unsearchable riches (Luke 2:10-11; Acts 5:42; Rom. 1:1-4; Eph. 3:8). Actually, you have to realize that [in Ephesians 3:8] to announce…as the gospel in Greek is just one word. This word is not the […]
Let us pray for the saints to proclaim the glad tidings concerning Christ
We were Reconciled in one Body to God through the Cross and have been Brought Near
On the cross in one Body both the Jews and the Gentiles were reconciled to God; we were reconciled in one Body to God, and now we are one with the Lord to preach the gospel of peace. Christ Himself is the peace offering for the Body of Christ as revealed in Ephesians 2:14. He […]
Our God is a God of Peace; in the World we have Affliction but in Christ we have Peace
Our God is a God of peace, and His peaceful nature is in us; the peace of God is the God of peace infused into us through our fellowship with Him in prayer, and even though we have affliction in the world, in Him we have peace. We need to come to the Lord so […]

The Screen and the Veil are Related to the Two Aspects of Reconciliation in 2 Cor. 5
This week we have been enjoying the spiritual significance of the two veils in the tabernacle (called the screen and the veil) and how they are related to the two aspects of reconciliation Paul speaks of in 2 Cor. 5. Both the screen (covering the entrance to the Holy Place) and the veil (covering the entrance […]
We need the Ministry of Reconciliation until we are in God and He is in us Absolutely
Not many believers realize that the veil and the screen (the two curtains in the tabernacle in Exodus) are related to the two aspects of reconciliation Paul speaks about in 2 Cor. 5:18-21. Our God is enterable: He has come through incarnation to become a tabernacle, an enterable God, and in His resurrection we all […]
