This week we have been both enjoying and prayerfully studying the definition of a priest: what is a priest according to the Bible, and how can we be priests to God today. Christ Himself is the High Priest, and the way for us to be priests is to have Christ reproduced in us. A priest, […]
The Triune God and the Believers Became an Incorporation in Christ’s Resurrection
To try to understand God with our human mind is futile, but to exercise our spirit and pray over God’s word brings us into a deeper inward understanding of God and even in a union with Him. Man is a mystery, and God is, even more, a mystery. God’s incarnation is a mystery, Christ’s human […]
Having the Lord’s Leading and Guidance through the Spirit and the Living Word of God
In Exodus 13 we see four crucial matters related to Israel’s exodus from Egypt; these are related to our spiritual experience and can be applied to our Christian life today.
