As believers in Christ, our old man has been crucified to the law through the body of Christ so that we might marry another husband, Christ, who has been raised from the dead; Christ is our Husband, and we have an organic union with Him, taking Him as our Head, life, person, and everything. Praise […]
We’re Freed from the Law regarding the Old Man and Joined to Christ, our New Husband
![Knowing this, that our old man has been crucified with [Him] in order that the body of sin might be annulled, that we should no longer serve sin as slaves.

Since our old man has been crucified and died, even being buried with Christ, we are discharged from its law and are married to Christ, our new Husband; we have two statuses – the old man (the old husband) and the new man (the proper wife married to Christ as the Husband). Amen! When God […]
Old Man assumed the Position of a Husband: the Law Exposes his Inability to keep it

We’re a Miniature Garden of Eden: Christ is in our Spirit and Satan is in our Flesh
Today we believers in Christ are a miniature garden of Eden, for God as the tree of life is in our spirit, Satan as the tree of knowledge is in our flesh, and our mind is in between; we need to choose to turn to our spirit and never try to improve our ugly flesh, […]
Eat Christ as the Tree of Life and Love the Lord to become the Testimony of Jesus
We need to eat Christ as the tree of life and love the Lord with the first love so that we may become the testimony of Jesus on the earth today. The primary matter in the church life should be eating the tree of life, that is, enjoying Christ as our life supply; we do […]
Being Brought into Love as the Inner Substance of God and Love others as Christ did
We need to be brought into love as the inner substance of God that we may enjoy His presence in the sweetness of the divine love and thereby love others as Christ did; when we love others with Christ as our love, even by becoming love in Christ, we build up the Body in love. […]
Seeing the Father’s Love for us, we Walk in Love Caring for the Father’s Feeling
