Christians often speak of living a life like the one Jesus lived on this earth. But how can we live such a life? Philippians 2 describes the pattern of Christ’s crucified life: 5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 Who, existing in the form of God, did not

This is the year of jubilee! That’s the good news Jesus proclaimed. Jesus brought in the jubilee when He proclaimed the familiar passage from Isaiah in the synagogue in Nazareth.

It’s my personal testimony — pursuing Christ, living the church life, and enjoying the ministry of Witness Lee and Watchman Nee. It’s my story and I’m happy to share it with you.

How can we expect to live the Christian life if we don’t spend some private time with the Lord each day? In fact, when the Lord Jesus was living on this earth, he set forth the pattern of making private time to fellowship with His Father. In Matthew 14:23 it says, “And after He sent

That birth was God becoming flesh, born of the virgin Mary to become a genuine man, Jesus our Savior (John 1:1, 14; Matt. 1:18-21). Isaiah prophesied

The Lord’s recovery today is not a recovery program from alcoholism, substance abuse, or any other kind of vice. Nor is it the name of a Christian movement. The Lord’s recovery is the return to what God intended from the beginning, as revealed in His word, the Bible. To understand its meaning, we first need

Christ’s life, in His fine humanity, is one aspect that we need to remember, to appreciate, again and again. The eight stanzas of
