I was recently impressed in a fresh way regarding the meetings of the church. How can you say that you are in the church? Practically, one believer is in the church if he meets with the saints – if he is in the church meetings! You can’t truthfully say, Hallelujah, I’m part of the church! […]
receiving a fresh vision of the church meetings and the church life in a very practical way

To live in the new creation, we have to turn from the things seen to the things not seen
In order for us to live in the new creation, we have to turn from the things seen to the things not seen. The 3 verses at the end of chapter 4 in the second epistle Paul wrote to the Corinthians are very striking, for they unveil how we, the believers in Christ who have […]

we are now one with Christ and part of the corporate Servant of Jehovah(as typified by Israel)
As we saw previously, in the book of Isaiah there are at least three persons that typify Christ and also typify us – Cyrus the king, Isaiah the prophet, and the people of Israel. Even though Cyrus was a Gentile king, God chose Him, formed him, prepared him, and strengthened him to do His will […]

learning to be those loved by God by doing the things which are on His heart
King Cyrus, though a Gentile king, was raised up by Jehovah, anointed by Jehovah, and loved by God (Isa. 48:14). God loves the people that do the things which are on His heart. Cyrus did what was pleasing to God, bringing pleasure to God, by releasing the people of Israel to go to their own […]

Christ is the Servant of God, and we are saved to serve(we are all serving ones!)
There is so much about this wonderful Person, Christ! We can never exhaust speaking about Him, appreciating Him, and enjoying Him! This morning I was freshly impressed with the fact that Christ is the Servant of Jehovah – He was the Servant of Jehovah in eternity past, He became the Servant of Jehovah in humanity, […]

Christ as the Servant of Jehovah is typified in Isaiah by king Cyrus, the people of Israel, and the prophet Isaiah
Christ is the Servant of Jehovah, and because Christ is so great and woderful, the entire Bible is full of types of Christ – people that typify Christ as the Servant of Jehovah.

John the Baptist brought in the New Testament priesthood of the gospel – now all believers are priests!
The Old Testament priesthood is over and done away with – God has begun the New Testament priesthood with the coming of John the Baptist!
