Reflection of Christ – At Christ's Table

Manifested Presence of God, The (eBook)

The apostle, Peter, spoke of “times of refreshing from the presence of the Lord”. (Acts 2:19-21) Taken in context, Peter is saying that before Christ returns at the end of this present age, there will be “times of refreshing”, and that these times would “come from the presence of the Lord”. What we call “revivals”, or “outpourings of the Spirit”, are in fact God-appointed “times of visitation” of the manifested presence of God. Thus, God manifests His presence throughout church

Seeing Christ (eBook)

Christ-centered Typology for Revelation of Christ, Relationship with Christ, and Reflection of Christ “Typology” – a term given to a method of interpreting the Old Testament scriptures in light of the New Covenant, was used by the apostolic writers of the New Testament. This approach to understanding the Old Testament is based on the principle Paul the apostle gives in 1 Corinthians 15:46, “The spiritual is not first, but the natural; then the spiritual.”. There are many symbols – “types”,

Walking with Sorrow (eBook)

A Theology of Suffering Sorrow is inescapable. And the following questions found in the hearts and minds of all human beings are equally inescapable: Why is there suffering and sorrow? Why does God allow it? Why do “good” people suffer? The Scriptures offer rational answers to these “inescapable questions”.

Weakness of God, The (eBook)

“The weakness of God” – this is, indeed, a captivating phrase penned by Paul the apostle in his letter to the Church. (1 Corinthians 1:25) This “weakness” is God’s chosen “methodology” from “before the foundation of the world – in “the Lamb slain” (Revelation 13:8), in His choice of Israel and Gideon’s company, and ultimately in the cross of Christ. The Lord revealed to Paul that He dwells in our weakness. And, since the Church is the dwelling place of

Transformation of Self (eBook)

The various schools of thought on Holiness are founded upon their understanding and interpretation of Romans 6:6. The colloquial speech used to discuss the commonly held concept of “Death to Self” or “Crucifixion of Self” does not hold up to biblical scrutiny or logic. It therefore does not suit the biblical process of sanctification. It is important to understand the process in order to better co-operate with the working of the Holy Spirit. While the concept of holiness is multi-facetted

Cross & The Powers of Darkness, The (eBook)

The Church has a calling that could be referred to as “The Even Greater Commission”: “… that the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known through the church to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenly places.” Ephesians 3:10 Jesus laid down His life for a Bride who will love Him more than herself. The Lord purposed to have a Church that would demonstrate the wisdom and power of self-denying obedience in order to put to shame

Way of the Cross, The (eBook)

We can make a distinction between the “Work of the Cross” and the “Way of the Cross”: The “Work of the Cross” is Christ’s sacrificial work on the Cross as “the Lamb of God Who takes away the sins of the World”. The message of the “Work” of the Cross is directed to the unconverted – the “old man” in Adam. The “Way of the Cross” is Christ’s example which He gave to “anyone wants to become my follower, he
