What Christ as a Man has accomplished and attained in His ascension is tremendous and amazing: He was inaugurated, exalted, and enthroned by God to be Lord of all, King of kings, and Head over all things in the universe to administrate the whole universe for God and accomplish God’s New Testament economy. As believers […]
Being Willing to be Headed up in Christ by Growing in Life and Living in the Light
God has chosen us, predestinated us, redeemed us, forgiven us, and graced us in Christ for the purpose of heading up all things in Christ (see Eph. 1:3-10).
