The basis of our service to God should be the resurrection life, and we need to realise our own inability and serve God in the principle of resurrection today. The resurrected Christ should be our life, our living, and the resurrection life within us; and this life should bud, blossom, and bear fruit to maturity. […]

Living an Overcoming Life and Redeeming the Time to Contact People for Shepherding Them
February 10, 2018 by 3 Comments
![We must recover this matter [of contacting and shepherding people]. Only by this will the organic building up of the Body of Christ in Ephesians 4:12-16 and the meetings of mutuality in 1 Corinthians 14:26 be realized and practiced among us.

Developing our Organic Function as Members and Prophesying to Build up the Church
February 7, 2018 by 5 Comments
As we are being perfected in the group meetings we should all pursue and desire prophesying, speaking and listening in mutuality, for the stirring up of the spiritual organic function of the members of the Body for the building up of the Body. The church is an organism, the mingling of God and man, produced […]
The Church is an Organism, so we all are being Perfected to Function in the Body
February 6, 2018 by 10 Comments
The practice of the God-ordained way to meet and serve comes out of our seeing that the church is an organism as a mingling of God and man, produced by the Triune God in his Divine Trinity. We thank and praise the Lord for showing us the light and revelation regarding the scriptural way to […]
