As believers in Christ, we all desire to know the truth (to know the Bible, understand the spiritual things, and even have a way to explain these things to others) and to grow in life (to become more mature in the divine life by Christ daily growing in us) – but both of these things […]
may the gospel not stop with us, but we would be seeds of the gospel
This morning I was enjoying the verses in Hebrews 11:8-9: 8. By faith Abraham, being called, obeyed to go out unto a place which he was to receive as an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing where he was going. 9. By faith he dwelt as a foreigner in the land of promise as […]
be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth with Christ by being the increase of Christ
This morning, when I was enjoying the Lord in His Word and in the morning revival portion, I realized more than ever that we, as human beings, were created to “propagate” and fill the earth!

The Lord arranges everything in our environment to turn our heart to Him and to transform us

However the situation was in Corinth, with many distractions, difficulties and even damaging aspects […]

In God’s economy, we can see […]

“Luke 21:34-36 helps us to realize that the downward trend on earth today is very strong. Actually, this trend has become a tide that carries everything and everyone along with it. It is extremely difficult for us as believers in Christ to stand in the midst of this tide. In order to stand, we need […]
