Being Enlightened by the Lord and Giving Heed to His Word to become Living Stars

As the Lord’s faithful followers, we are becoming shining and living stars; as those who follow Christ we become living stars like Him to be His duplication by giving heed to the prophetic word and by the Spirit.

Finding Christ as the Living Star by seeing a Living Vision of Christ in the Bible

In Num. 24:17 we see a precious crystal in the book of Numbers – Christ as the living Star – which is fulfilled in Matt. 2:2 and has to be our experience in our Christian life and church life today. In Numbers we see how Moses prophesied that a Sat shall come forth out of […]
