A new kind of love was brought to the world by Jesus. As we understand this new kind of love, we realize there never was any love before. The thing we have called love has been sex attraction. In heathen countries, there is no love. It is mere sex attraction hardly higher than that seen… Continue reading What Have You Done with Love?

There is always a danger of reading into the Old Testament and the four Gospels some of the facts that are only revealed in the Epistles.There is a danger of attributing to the disciples, before the day of Pentecost, much that is not true. Let me make this statement first and then we will prove… Continue reading Some Facts About Pentecost

Man in the garden lived in the realm of the spirit. He had perfect fellowship with God. His spirit dominated him. Then sin came and he was driven from the presence of God. From that moment, he lived under the domination of his senses. These five senses became his master. His spirit lost dominion the… Continue reading Why Natural Man Cannot Know Himself

Several times, the Word tells us that Jesus sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high. Hebrews 1:3 is a good illustration: Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged… Continue reading Jesus at the Right Hand of the Father

Perhaps no one sentence from the lips of the Master has been more misunderstood than the one that He uttered on the cross: “It is finished” (John 19:30). Most of us have believed that He meant He had finished His redemptive work, but that is not true. His work as a substitute was just beginning… Continue reading “It Is Finished”

Few of us know the reality of the rest mentioned in Hebrews 4:1: “Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.” When Jesus had finished His work, He sat down at “the right hand of the Majesty on… Continue reading The Rest of Redemption

When we use the fact of His substitution as we use a bridge, or an elevator, then the Word becomes a reality. We never think of faith when we take an elevator or train. We simply use them. If we were new creation-conscious, as conscious of the fact that we are a new creation and… Continue reading Believing in His Substitution

One of the saddest facts that we have to face today is that the sons of God, men with God in them, men with the very nature of God, are walking as mere men of the world. And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto… Continue reading Walking as Mere Men

During Jesus’s earth walk, He was dealing exclusively with the Jews—the first covenant people. He was surrounded by men who had never been born again.No person with whom He dealt had yet received eternal life.They were all spiritually dead. John 8:44 is Jesus’s description of them: “Ye are of your father the devil, and the… Continue reading The Limitations of Jesus

It is an unhappy thing to be dependent upon another’s faith. In a measure, we are all dependent upon others, but in this vital issue of life, no believer should be dependent upon another’s ability to approach the throne. We cannot afford to trust others with vital issues that we ourselves should be able to… Continue reading Having Your Own Faith Life

The problem of repentance in the face of modern preaching is a serious one. Look at the meaning of the word that was used by Peter on the day of Pentecost: “Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the… Continue reading What Repentance Means

Perhaps we have never majored in our own thinking, in our own inner consciousness, what we really are in Christ; what it means to have Jesus as the Lord of our lives. We read in Paul’s or John’s epistles what they say about it. John said, “Beloved, now are we the sons of God” (1… Continue reading What We Dare Confess About Ourselves

The Spirit speaking through Paul in Philippians 2:13 says, “For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.” How hard it has been for some of us to become God-inside minded, to daily remind ourselves that we have Him in us, and that He is there… Continue reading Limiting God In Us

Every real father’s desire is to reproduce himself in his son. The Father’s dream is to reproduce Himself in us. You understand that the New Creation has received the nature and life of the Father. We invite the Holy Spirit, (once our spirit is born again with the nature of our Father), to come into… Continue reading God Reproducing Himself In Us

There has never been a great deal of teaching on the necessity of a renewed mind. We have stressed the need of being converted, being born again, but we have left the convert hanging in the wind, as it were. Great enthusiasm and joy come at the new birth, but unless that is cared for… Continue reading The Renewed Mind

The law of the New Covenant is a perfect contrast to the law of the Old Covenant. The Old Covenant was called the “law of sin and death.” The law of the New Covenant is called the “law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus.” One law put people in bondage; the other law… Continue reading The Law of Life

In Galatians 2:20, we get one of the richest views of Christ’s ministry for us: 20 I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me… Continue reading Sharing With Him

The Legal and Vital Aspects of Redemption Until one becomes conscious of these two phases of revelation, there will be cloudiness in their understanding and teaching and a lack of solidity in their thinking and living. The legal side of redemption is what God did for us in Christ. It is in the past. Romans… Continue reading The Legal and Vital Aspects of Redemption

Many believers do not understand what it means to be “in Christ” and therefore do not act as though it is true, so they do not realize what they have already inherited. The Father has declared in the Word what we are in Christ. We find believers seeking to obtain what love has already given… Continue reading “In Whom We Have”

Here are some of the riches of this blessed truth collected from the Pauline Epistles. What does His resurrection mean to the Christian in his daily life? John 19:31–37 tells us of His death, of the spear-thrust in His side, and of blood and water pouring out of that great gaping wound.It is told in… Continue reading What the Resurrection Gives Us

This is an unveiling of what we are before the Father, and how the Father looks upon us in Christ. Jesus said- I came from the Father and entered the world; now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father (John 16:28) Jesus said, “Except a man be born again, he cannot… Continue reading The unveiling of Christ within

Paul teaches us about prayer by his prayers. In Ephesians 6:18, he says, “With all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.” You notice he uses the expression “with all prayer [or with all kinds of prayer] and supplication in the Spirit.” It is the… Continue reading What Paul taught about prayer

In the early days, German philosophy had gained the ascendency in many of our theological institutions, and there came a strange new slogan. You’ve heard it continuously back then: “Back to Jesus.” I didn’t know what it meant. Then I read someone had declared that Paul had altogether too much influence over the church, and… Continue reading The Four Gospels in Contrast with the Pauline Epistles

This title of the message bears the heart reason for spiritual failure. It is the reason why in daily life, the believer breaks down, why the adversary has no trouble in overthrowing them in a crisis; the reason why they are a spiritual hitchhiker, always depending upon someone else’s prayers, someone else’s wisdom, someone else’s… Continue reading Treating the Word as Though It Were a Common Book

What is the living Word? It is God speaking to you directly through an oracle of God, until that word is written on your heart, and you can hear God yourself. Unfortunately, the word being spoken and taught today is a mixture, mostly human and a little of the divine. God’s Words are not human… Continue reading The Living Word

These series of messages on the New Creation Realities paid for through the Legal and vital aspects of the finished work of Jesus on the cross. These messages will begin to transform your life. We are going to explore the “hidden man of the heart.” Our spirit that was born from above through the seed… Continue reading Welcome to The Church of “The First Born”
