It is human to need God; as men, we need God!

November 15, 2009 by aGodMan 2 Comments

I read this tract recently: It’s Human to need God, and I realized that it is so true: as human beings, as men, we need God! It’s not mainly because we are sinners that we need Him – Adam, in the garden of Eden, was not a sinner yet, and still he needed God as […]

Eating, drinking, and breathing Christ for the building up of the Body of Christ

November 13, 2009 by aGodMan 1 Comment

Our Christian life, just like our physical life, is being maintained / sustained by our continual supply – we need to daily eat, drink, and breathe in Christ. Christ is our real food, Christ is our real drink (John 6:55; John 6:30-35); He is the manna, He as the Spirit is the living water (John […]

we are now in the process of becoming like Him

November 12, 2009 by aGodMan Leave a Comment

God became a man in the Lord Jesus Christ for the purpose of making us also the same as He is! His hearts’ desire is to have man as His counterpart (Rev. 19:7), His expression, the same as He is. That’s why He “bothered” / “took the pain” of becoming a man: the infinite God […]

preaching a high and uplifted gospel according to the Bible

November 9, 2009 by aGodMan Leave a Comment

Many times most of us think “oh, maybe people can’t really understand the gospel if we preach it in such a high way” – and on the other side, many of the people that are not saved think “why believe in such a watered-down and not-so-high gospel, that tells you to get saved to go […]

nothing else satisfies us but God in Christ

If you haven’t reached this conclusion, take a moment and think about it: our family life can’t satisfy us fully, our social life can’t satisfy us; even our online life – social media – networking – can’t satisfy us; knowledge and schooling can’t fully satisfy us; relationships – do not fill the deep void in […]

worshipping God in spirit and truthfulness

October 31, 2009 by aGodMan Leave a Comment

During the centuries, many people wanted/attempted to worship God, to know Him, and to have a relationship with Him. Even Cain, in the second generation of the mankind, brought a sacrifice to God – something that “he thought” that God would like. As we see from his example though, God doesn’t just want us to […]
