ENLIGHTEN

Also to enlighten all men and make plain to them

what is the plan of the mystery kept hidden

through the ages and concealed until now in

God Who created all things by Christ Jesus.

That through the church the complex,

multifaceted wisdom of God in all its

infinite variety and innumerable aspects

might now be made known to the

angelic rulers and authorities in

the heavenly sphere.

This is in accordance with the terms

of the eternal and timeless purpose

which He realized and carried into

effect in Christ Jesus our Lord.

In Whom because of our faith in Him,

we dare to have the boldness of free

access to God with freedom and

without fear.

(Ephesians … Continue Reading

INNUMERABLE

The purpose is that through the church the complicated,

many-sided wisdom of God in all its infinite variety and

innumerable aspects might now be made known to the

angelic rulers and authorities in the heavenly sphere.

(Ephesians 3.10).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

WE CONFESS

Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who

share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts

on Jesus, the apostle and high priest Whom we

confess.

(Hebrews 3.1).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

SOME MAY ASK

But someone may ask, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body

will they come?” How foolish! What you sow does not come to life unless

it dies. When you sow, you do not plant the body that will be, but just a

seed, perhaps of wheat or something else. But God gives it a body as He

has determined, and to each kind of seed He gives its own body. All flesh

is not the same: Men have one kind of flesh, animal have another, birds

another and fish another. There are heavenly bodies and there are earthly

bodies; but the splendor of the … Continue Reading

GREATLY

Jesus replied, Are you the teacher in Israel, and yet

do not know nor understand these things?

I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, We speak only

of what we know; we have actually seen what we are

testifying to, we were eyewitnesses of it. And still you

do not receive our testimony.

If I have told you of things that happen right here on the

earth and yet none of you believes Me, how can you

believe if I tell you of heavenly things?

And yet no one has ever gone up to heaven, but there is One

Who has come down from heaven- the Son of Man, Who … Continue Reading

with Him and made sit down

together (giving us joint seating

with Him) in the heavenly sphere

(by virtue of us being)in Christ

Jesus ( the Messiah, the Anointed

One).

Our response has to … Continue Reading

MADE RIGHT

Who shall bring any charge against

God’s elect, when it is God Who puts

us in right relation to Himself ?

Who shall come forward and accuse

or impeach those whom God has chosen?

Will God, Who acquits us?

grace you have been saved),

And raised us up together, and made us

sit … Continue Reading

AMAZING LOVE

Blessed be the God and Father
of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has
blessed us with every spiritual
blessing in the heavenly places
in Christ,
Just as He chose us in Him before
the foundation of the world, that
we should be holy and without blame
before Him in love,
Having predestinated us to adoption
as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself,
according to the good pleasure of
His will,
To the praise of the glory of His
grace, by which He made us
accepted in the Beloved.
(Ephesians 1.3-6).
