God's Eternal Purpose is to Mingle Himself with Man to gain the Body of Christ

God’s eternal purpose is to dispense Himself into His people to make them the same as He is in life and nature but not in the Godhead for His enlarged and expanded expression. The answer to all questions is God’s economy, and His intention is to mingle Himself with man to produce the church as the Body of Christ consummating in the New Jerusalem. Amen! We believers in Christ have been saved by…

The Christian Life is a Life for God's Economy to Build up the Body as His expression

The Christian Life is a Life for God’s Economy to Build up the Body as His expression

God’s eternal economy is to gain a group of people into whom He dispenses Himself to be their life and everything so that they would be joined to Him as one, be filled and occupied with Him, and be one organic entity with Him on earth to be the Body of Christ; the Christian life is a life that is for God’s economy. Amen! This week we come to a new topic in our morning revival, Experiencing the…

Today we are Preaching Christ as the Firstborn Son of God for His Propagation

Today we are Preaching Christ as the Firstborn Son of God for His Propagation

Christ is both the only Begotten Son of God and the firstborn Son, and what we announce today is Christ as the Firstborn Son of God for His propagation.

He was, is, and always will be the only Begotten Son of God in His Godhead, and He always existed and will always exist as such a One. However, in His economy, in time, Christ became a man, and He put on the human nature. When God became man,…

Ezekiel is a Book full of Humanity, showing how much God desires to have a Man!

Ezekiel is a Book full of Humanity, showing how much God desires to have a Man!

The expression “son of man” is mentioned more than ninety times in Ezekiel, and the main material of God’s building seen by Ezekiel was wood; this week we want to see more concerning the son of man and the humanity of Jesus for God’s building.

We have previously seen the matter of the Man on the Throne, based on Ezek. 1:26-28; now this week we want to see the matter of the son of man and the…

Our Ultimate Responsibility is to Bear the Testimony of Jesus for His Expression

Our Ultimate Responsibility is to Bear the Testimony of Jesus for His Expression

In the church life today we need to bear the ultimate responsibility related to God’s ultimate move on earth to first be saturated and permeated with Christ for the church as the Body of Christ, and second to bear the testimony of Jesus.

God’s move today is toward Europe, and He wants to gain many Europeans to be part of His corporate expression on earth. The way God moves is inwardly – He…

God's Life in us Causes us to be Transcendent so that we may Express God Corporately

God’s Life in us Causes us to be Transcendent so that we may Express God Corporately

The four living creatures in Ezekiel 1 are a corporate expression of Christ, the One on the throne, living out the life of Christ in a corporate way; they express Christ in His ruling and reigning (the face of a lion), in His serving and sacrificing (the face of an ox), in His being a proper man (the face of a man), and in being transcendent and glorious (the face of an eagle).

These four living…

The Living Creatures are the means for God's Manifestation, Move, and Administration

The Living Creatures are the means for God’s Manifestation, Move, and Administration

Chapter one of Ezekiel is both deep, profound, and fascinating; the four living creatures, in particular, are very interesting, for with them we see the appearance of a man, and they manifest God’s glory, they are the means for God to move, and they are the means for God to administrate on the throne.

The four living creatures bear the appearance of a man, and they are the corporate expression of…

Ezekiel 1 unveils God's Desire to be Expressed Corporately in Christ and His Body

Ezekiel 1 unveils God’s Desire to be Expressed Corporately in Christ and His Body

Ezekiel 1, the deepest chapter in the whole Bible, unveils to us the desire of God’s heart and the purpose He wants to accomplish; in this chapter we see that God obtains a corporate expression of Himself in Christ and His Body, that is, the Man on the throne and the four living creatures on earth.

Our God has a heart’s desire: He has a good pleasure. We all know that we are called, redeemed, and…

Being Built up with Fellow Believers is the Lord's Supreme Requirement of His Seekers

Being Built up with Fellow Believers is the Lord’s Supreme Requirement of His Seekers

Being built up with fellow believers is the Lord’s supreme and highest requirement of His faithful seekers according to His top divine attribute – the divine oneness (see John 17).

The bride of Christ is not an individual spiritual Christian but a corporate entity, a building up of the believers who pursue Christ, enjoy Him, grow in life unto maturity, and pay the price to be built together as…

God's Main Work is the Work of Building up the Church for His Corporate Expression

God’s Main Work is the Work of Building up the Church for His Corporate Expression

Today God does only one work: the work of building Himself into man and man into God so that God and man may be mingled together and become the building of God, the dwelling place of God, the house of God. Everything that He did and does is for His main work of building.

When we speak of the increase of Christ – both the increase in numbers and the growth of Christ in us – we need to realize that…

God's Economy is that God became Man to make Man God for His Corporate Expression

God’s Economy is that God became Man to make Man God for His Corporate Expression

When God created man in His image and according to His likeness He had a specific purpose in mind: He wanted this man to become the same as God in life and nature but not in the Godhead so that God would corporately be expressed through man.

Man was created with a spirit and was put in front of the tree of life; if he partook of the this tree, he would have lived forever one with God and…

God is Mingling Himself with us to Become our Life for His Corporate Expression

God is Mingling Himself with us to Become our Life for His Corporate Expression

“God’s purpose is to mingle Himself with us so that He becomes our life, our nature, and our content, and so that we become His corporate expression.” – this is quite a statement. God’s heart desire is to obtain the church as the Body of Christ; He desires to gain a group of people who are fully mingled with God.

The building up of the church as the Body of Christ is by the mingling of God and…

Having a Divine View and Understanding of God's Building Throughout the Bible

Having a Divine View and Understanding of God’s Building Throughout the Bible

In the entire universe today God is doing only one thing: building up His eternal habitation. God’s building is the desire of God’s heart and the goal of His salvation. What please the Lord the most is not that many of his believers would overcome sin or be spiritual individually, but that He would get a building, a divine-human entity composed of the built-up believers in Christ.

He created all…
