The greatest prophecy in the Bible is that uttered by the Lord Jesus in Matt. 16:18, I will build My church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. God’s goal is the building, and the unique work Christ is doing today is to build up the church as the Body of Christ, the […]
Believers are Holy Priests Separated unto God and Saturated with God’s Holy Element
All believers in Christ are priests to God. According to the Bible, there are two orders of the priesthood: the holy priesthood (the priesthood according to the order of Aaron) and the royal priesthood (the priesthood according to the order of Melchizedek).

We Need to be Holy Persons Filled with God to Light the Holy Lamps in the Holy Place

Christ as the Seed of David Destroyed all the Negative Things through His Death
In our prayerful consideration and study of the matter of Christ’s resurrection in the aspect of Christ as the seed of David becoming the Son of God by resurrection we need to ask ourselves one question: what does it mean that Christ is the seed of David? Literally, Christ being the seed of David means […]
