We praise the Lord for the truth in the Bible and for the recovery of the proper interpretation of the truth concerning the Spirit as the consummation of the Triune God. God became a man, lived a perfect human life on earth, died on the cross, and entered into resurrection to become “the Spirit” which […]
In the Triune God, Christ the Son is the Expression of the Father (part 2)
In his Gospel John speaks again and again about the Triune God – the Father as the source, the Son as the expression, and the Spirit as the realization. God the Father is mysterious, hidden, and no human eye has ever seen Him. But the Son who is in the bosom of the Father has […]
In the Triune God, the Father is the Source and the Son is the Expression (part 1)
John’s mending ministry is in life and by life. Life is a Person, the Triune God Himself in the Father as the source, the Son as the expression, and the Spirit as the realization.

The Apostle John saw this lack and he stepped in to speak of the […]

All believers in Christ need to grow in life, be transformed, be matured, and arrive at a full-grown man for the fulfillment of God’s purpose. One of the most practical ways for our daily life to arrive at a full-grown man is to practice the church life in the consciousness of the one new man […]
Struggling to Minister Christ to Others to Present them Full-Grown in Christ
The Apostle Paul was a very good pattern of laboring and struggling to present every man full-grown in Christ (Col. 1:28-29). He didn’t just preach the gospel in a city and “moved on to another city”; rather, he agonized, struggled, and labored to present every man full-grown in Christ. Our service in the church is, […]
