This is a very good question. As believers in Christ, we know from the Bible that when we repented and believed in the Lord, Christ became our allotted portion with the saints in the light (Col. 1:12), and God gave Christ to us as the fattened calf (Luke 15) for us to enjoy. We were […]
If God in Christ is everything we need, why some Christians are still unhappy or joyless?

the spirit is in the soul, the soul in the body, and the body is in time(college age conference sharing)
Praise the Lord for this past College Age Conference – it really refreshed my love and my consecration towards the Lord Jesus! It reminded me that I am such a thirsty sinner just like the Samaritan woman when she came to draw water from the well (John 4). We keep on drinking the worldly water […]

There is […]

all the cases in John represent us: we need Christ!(college age conference sharing)
The recent students conference in Wales overall revived my spirit to a great extent. The Gospel of John starts making sense for me. In a way, we are all the nine cases recorded in John: we are moral, immoral, dying, impotent, thirsty, hungry, bondaged in sin, blind in religion, and ultimately we are dead. I […]

we are becoming the house of His beauty by receiving His daily dispensing in His Word
How wonderful – God is beautified in His church, and the church is the house of His beauty! By putting Himself into us as the Spirit and the word, Christ becomes our beauty, brightness, and splendor!

our transgression plus our repentance joining God’s forgiveness issues in something for the building!
This morning I was reminded afresh of the verse in Matt. 1:6 in the genealogy of the Lord Jesus, And Jesse begot David the king. And David begot Solomon of her who had been the wife of Uriah. and I enjoyed the first part of footnote 3 on this verse, on the word, Solomon, When […]
