Unconsciously, every person on earth is under the influence of his culture; when we came into the church life, we brought our culture with us, and this culture undermines our enjoyment of Christ and the church life, hence we need the all-inclusive, extensive Christ to replace our culture. This week we come to the matter […]
The Christian Life is a Life of Living Christ all the Time, and not Living our Culture
January 20, 2021 by 1 Comment
Hallelujah, the Christian life is a life of living Christ – all the time – and not living our culture. By the Lord’s mercy, we can see that our culture is a substitute for Christ, for we live our culture instead of living Christ; however, we should not “drop our culture” but live Christ, and […]
The Culture within us is Spontaneously replaced by the Christ we Enjoy and Experience
January 19, 2021 by Leave a Comment
The culture within us is spontaneously replaced by the Christ whom we enjoy, experience, and gain.

Wow! This is God’s economy, and only […]
Allow the All-inclusive, Extensive Christ to Fill us and Replace our Culture with Himself

Instead of allowing our culture to replace Christ, we need to enjoy and experience the all-inclusive, extensive Christ and allow Him to replace our culture with Himself. Amen! The book of Colossians was written by Paul to both expose culture (which has replaced Christ in the enjoyment and experience of the believers at Colossae) and […]
