We praise and thank the Lord for giving us the blood of the covenant to enable us to serve the living God, and we want to allow the fire that comes from God to burn in us and on us in our service to Him. Without the blood of Christ freshly applied to our being, […]
God is a Consuming Fire, Christ cast Fire on Earth, and the Spirit is a Burning Flame
The source of our service must be God, and the basis of our work must be the fire from the altar. In serving God we need to have not only the proper source (which is God Himself) but also the proper basis, the basic principle of our work. If we don’t have the proper basis, […]
The Church is a Corporate Thornbush Burning with the Triune God of Resurrection
