Letting Christ Build Himself into us and Build us into God by Abiding in the Lord

The Lord Jesus is the first One who mentioned the word “church” and He said, I will build My church (Matt. 16:18). The question is, how does Jesus build His church? Since He was the son of a carpenter, does this mean that He right now uses a hammer with nails and all kinds of […]

The Church is Built with the Christ Experienced, Gained, and Enjoyed by God’s People

I am looking forward to the next Crystallization-Study of Exodus when we will dive deeper into the divine revelation concerning the tabernacle, the dwelling place of God among men, but in this morning revival we are only touching the surface and having a foretaste of this matter.

The matter of knowing and living in ascension with Christ is not something light or cheap but high and deep, something that we can experience as we are being matured in the divine life. In His time and in His way, the Lord as our Beloved, the One whom we follow and pursue in love, […]

Being Recovered to Function as Priests for the Building of God’s House, the Church
