Ever since we became a believer by receiving the Lord Jesus as our Savior and as our life, we Christians became a mysterious people. Now we’re not just human beings with all that the humanity entails, but we’re also divine beings with all that the divine life brings about! We are mysterious people – we […]
the more we are being forgiven by the Lord, the more we fear Him, respect Him, and the more we love Him!
Psalm 130:3-4 – If You, O Jehovah, marked iniquities, Who, O Lord, would stand? But with You there is forgiveness, That You would be feared. The more the Lord forgives us, the more we fear Him, and at the same time the more we love Him. How marvelous is this! Isa 55:7-8 says Let the […]
We abide in Christ as the vine, we are rooted in Him as the soil, and we take Christ as the Head!

God needs us not to do great works for Him, but rather He needs us to eat Him and to drink Him
God desires that we would just enjoy Him! We see this clearly in the picture presented at both ends of the Bible: in the beginning, in Genesis, we see a man before the tree of life, and there’s a river that waters all the garden and reaches out to the whole earth! At the end […]
college-age conference testimony – consecrating ourselves to the Lord and putting all on the altar
The matter of consecration became so clear to me at the recent college-age conference through the brothers’ speaking and the reading of the Word and the ministry. To consecrate yourself to God is first of all to realise that we are not our own. 1 Cor 6:19 says, You are not your own… For you […]
