As believers in Christ, we need to cooperate with the Triune God to put off the old man, which was terminated on the cross by Christ, and put on the new man, which was created through Christ’s death and resurrection. We have seen that there’s an urgent need to see the church as the one […]
Cooperating with the Triune God to Put Off the Old Man and Put On the New Man
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 […]
