God’s People are Sheaves full of Life and the Church is Resurrectionly and Heavenly

We need to have the dreams that Joseph had so that we may realize that in God’s view all His people are sheaves full of life to produce food for the meal offering to satisfy God and man. When we see the church and the saints the way that God sees them, we will praise […]

Praising God and Speaking Well of the Church Life to be under God’s Blessing today

We want to be those praising God and speaking well of the church so that we may be under God’s blessing today. Throughout the centuries, those who have blessed Israel and who spoke well of the church have been blessed, and those who spoke evil of Israel and of the church have been under a […]

In God’s Eyes the Church is Sanctified, Perfect, and Beautiful for it is Full of Christ

Praise the Lord, in the eyes of God the church is sanctified, perfect, and beautiful, for the church is full of Christ!
