As a Christian living in this current age, sometimes we might experience a failure of our spiritual life. Sometimes we might trip and fall a bit. Just remember the power of the blood of Jesus Christ. Just remember that even the apostle Paul said “Not that I have already obtained or am already perfected” and then the next phrase says, “But I pursue.” Yes! We can pursue! We have the right to pursue our precious Lord! Pursue Him with the saints! Let us forget the things behind, stretch forward to the things before, and pursue toward the goal together to the New Jerusalem. [continue reading this article online]
this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole inhabited earth for a testimony!
I am so encouraged with what the Lord is doing today! On the one hand we have the high peak truth and the high gospel – the complete gospel as revealed in the whole New Testament – and on the other hand we have a way to enjoy the Lord, practice the church life, build up the Body, and become the Bride of Christ! In His recovery the Lord is continually speaking – conference after conference, training after training, meeting after meeting, and even morning after morning as we spend time with Him.

begetting through the gospel, feeding others with spiritual food, and building with precious materials
For us to build with gold, silver, and precious stones, we need to be constituted with the divine nature of the Father as gold, the redemptive work of Christ as the silver, and the transforming work of the Spirit as the precious stones. We as builders need to become these precious materials in order to build others with them and help them also become precious materials.

The Flow of Life with the Ministry of Life out of and for the Magnificent House of God (1)
After we have been measured and possessed by the Lord, then the river causes everything to live and even heals the waters of the Dead Sea (47:8-10, 12). What an abundance of life flows out—living creatures swarming, very many fish, and trees that bring forth new fruit every month! “Everything shall live wherever the river comes!”
Being a Christian Student on the Campus – being with the saints imparts LIFE into me!
Being a college student is tiring, stressful, and discouraging at times. On top of that, working and being a student is a challenge at times because I often feel like my time is so limited. Although I feel this way, I always try to be with the saints. Going to the college meetings on Wednesday nights, being in constant fellowship with saints from around the world, going to the home meeting on Friday, and living in the sisters’ house has been such a daily salvation to me
our sanctification in the truth results in oneness by dealing with all the factors of division
There are several factors of division which are in our being naturally, waiting only for the opportunity to surface and be expressed. We have to remember that outside of being in the Triune God there’s only division, but when we are in the enlarged oneness of the coinhering Triune God by the sanctifying truth we have the oneness! There’s no oneness in the universe outside of the coinhering Triune God!
