What is the reality of the Body of Christ? How can we know the reality of the Body? Is the Body of Christ merely something spiritual and intangible, or can we know the Body in reality? The reality of the Body of Christ is the Spirit of the reality of the Triune God. The reality […]
The Church is the Body of Christ, the Fulness of Christ the Head to be His Expression
This week and the following few weeks we are prayerfully considering the status of the church – the church is the Body of Christ, the church is the new man, and the church is the bride of Christ. The church is not simple but profound and rich in meaning; there are many aspects – many […]
