It is Christ as the Heavenly Man that is our consideration at this time, and we have been seeing that the main spring of the being of the Heavenly Man is eternal life. “In Him was life...” (John 1:4); “...as the Father hath life in Himself, even so gave He to the Son also to have life in Himself...”... consulte Mais informação

Just be reminded that the two passages in Paul's two letters ... consulte Mais informação

Reading: John 5:25, 28; 11:43; 6:63, 65; 8:43; 10:4,5; 10:16. It is well known that with John 11 a transition has taken place. Up to chapter 10 a series of spiritual truths and principles has been very largely enunciated and made practical in relation to a number of individuals. With chapter 10 thos... consulte Mais informação

(A message given to young Christians in October 1970) From “A Witness and a Testimony”, Vol. 49 No. 5, 1971 I have been wondering if I could define and sum up your conference in three words, and I think I have them: the Word, the Work and the World.

"That in my dying flesh the life whereby Jesus conquered death might show forth its power" (2 Cor. 4:11 - Conybeare).
