When the Lord Jesus was on the cross, Satan thought, “This is it, I’ve got Him – I will now kill Him!” But the Lord of life could not be killed. His human body was put to death and stayed in the grave for three days, and the Lord Jesus took a tour of “the […]

The Lord Jesus is the good Shepherd, and He shepherds us by feeding us with Himself and in Himself as the pasture (see John 10:9-10). There are other shepherds, that’s true, but the Lord is the good Shepherd. He takes an all-inclusive tender care of His believers as His sheep. On the cross He tore […]

February 3, 2014 by aGodMan Leave a Comment

The entire Bible is a book of life, and the gospel of John in particular is a book focusing on God as life for God’s building. What is life? Life is the Triune God Himself. The Lord Jesus came that we may have life and may have it abundantly (John 10:10). He came that we […]

Only life can mend. Only the mending ministry of life in love can mend us for the building up of the church as the Body of Christ. If we look around us we will see that both us and others have many problems, holes, lacks, and issues, and there are many broken hearts and broken […]

The Mending Ministry is More than Fixing a Hole; it Makes us Suitable for God’s Building

January 21, 2014 by aGodMan 1 Comment

There’s a certain correlation between the occupation of those called by the Lord Jesus to follow Him and their future ministry in the Lord. When the Lord Jesus called Peter and Andrew, they were casting the net into the sea to catch fish (Matt. 4:18-20); Peter’s ministry was to catch men alive, to be a […]
