The church is a corporate one new man, a corporate God-man, a universal man who fulfills God’s purpose of expressing God and representing Him. On the one hand, the church is the Body of Christ, and we need to take Christ as our life and everything for the Body, realising that we are members of […]
The Church is the One New Man to Fulfill God’s Purpose to Express and Represent God
The highest definition of the church is that the church is the one new man, and for this new man we all need to take Christ as our person. We may know that the church is the household of God and we are the many members of this divine-human household, and we may enjoy the […]
Our Urgent Need is to see a Governing and Controlling Vision of the One New Man
