The universe is for the human race, the human race is for the church, and the church is the increase of Christ.   The greatest prophecy in the Bible is in Matthew 16:18: “I will build My church”:   The fulfillment of this prophecy has not been fully realized, so even today the greatest prophecy […]

Spiritual progress is the increase of the element of Christ within the believers:   The first condition for spiritual progress in a believer is hunger:   All spiritual progress depends on our hunger; in order to have sustained progress before the Lord, we need a sustained hunger.   God’s principle is to fill the hungry […]

In order to have the increase of Christ for the increase and spread of the church, we must have the one accord; the Greek word for one accord is homothumadon from homo, “same,” and thumos, “mind, will, purpose (soul, heart)”:   The one accord is the master key to every blessing in the New Testament; […]

First John 5:16a says, “If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not unto death, he shall ask and he will give life to him”:   “Life” here is zoe, the spiritual, eternal, divine life.   This does not mean that the asker has life of himself and can give life by himself to others; […]

The increase and spread of the church is the increase and spread of Christ:   After passing through death, the Lord Jesus entered into resurrection to impart His divine life into those who believe into Him so that they could become His reproduction.   Through His death and resurrection, Christ has been propagated, increased, and […]

The Acts of the Apostles  is a book without an ending  because this book  is still being continued  for the increase of Christ: The Lord said,  “My Father is working until now,  and I also am working” (John 5:17);  this shows  that since the rebellion of Satan and the fall of man,  God has been […]

The burnt offering  typifies Christ  not mainly in His redeeming man from sin  but in His living a life  that is perfect  and absolutely for God and for God’s satisfaction and in His being the life  that enables God’s people  to have such a living : The burnt offering  is God’s food  so that God […]

1 John 2:15-17 Do not love the world  nor the things in the world.  If anyone loves the world,  love for the Father  is not in him; Because all that is in the world,  the lust of the flesh  and the lust of the eyes  and the vainglory of life,  is not of the Father  […]

We need to see  a vision of the self  so that the self  may be exposed and denied  and that we may hate  our independence from God and from the Body. The self  is the soul-life  with the emphasis on  human thoughts and opinions. In Matthew 16:23-25  three terms  are related to one another:  mind, […]

The church is  the heart’s desire of God;  the desire of God in this age  is to have the church: The church is the hidden mystery in God’s eternal economy. According to Ephesians 3:9,  there is a relationship  between creation and the church;  God’s intention  in His creation of all things, including man,  was that […]
