The Lord Jesus promised the disciples that He will send the Spirit of reality as another Comforter (see John 14:15-16, 26; 15:26; 16:7-8, 13), and after His resurrection He came among His disciples and breathed into them saying, Receive the Holy Spirit (John 20:22). The expected Spirit in John 7:39 and the promised Spirit in […]
The Spirit of Jesus Christ who “was not yet” in John 7:39 is Our Bountiful Supply Today!
We praise the Lord for the truth in the Bible and for the recovery of the proper interpretation of the truth concerning the Spirit as the consummation of the Triune God. God became a man, lived a perfect human life on earth, died on the cross, and entered into resurrection to become “the Spirit” which […]
The Triune God Went Through a Process Economically and Became “the Spirit” (John 7:39)
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Heb. 13:8), and with Him there is no change (Mal. 3:6; Num. 23:19). However, in the Gospel of John 1:14, we see that the Word – who was with God and who was God – became flesh. In His essence, God cannot change and will not […]

In the Triune God, Christ the Son is the Expression of the Father (part 2)
In his Gospel John speaks again and again about the Triune God – the Father as the source, the Son as the expression, and the Spirit as the realization. God the Father is mysterious, hidden, and no human eye has ever seen Him. But the Son who is in the bosom of the Father has […]
In the Triune God, the Father is the Source and the Son is the Expression (part 1)
John’s mending ministry is in life and by life. Life is a Person, the Triune God Himself in the Father as the source, the Son as the expression, and the Spirit as the realization. In his mending ministry – both in his Gospel, Epistles, and Revelation – John speaks extensively of the Divine Trinity, the […]
The Mending Ministry is of Life: Christ is our Life Personally and Intimately!
John the Apostle had a mending ministry of life – the way he mended the church and the situation among the believers was by presenting Christ as life to them. What we need in order to be mended by the Lord for His building is not outward correction or self-improvement but life, the divine life. […]
