16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. 17 For the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, so that you may not do the things that you please. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law. 19 Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, 21 envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of…

You are never going to be able to exhaust the Lord Jesus Christ in any conversation, any declaration, any form of teaching or preaching, or even in the heavens. If you combined the knowledge of God possessed by all human beings, all angels, all Holy Ones, all Seraphim and Cherubim, and every created being and compared it to what is still to be known of God, it would not register on the scale. It would not even move the arrow.…

God has initiated a recovery movement to re-establish God’s eternal purpose. That’s right out of Ephesians 3:11. This was in accordance with the eternal purpose. God wants to move His people past the initial stages of our relationship with Him, or past “Christianity,” because of all that word has come to mean, and into the knowledge of God. There is nothing wrong with God’s beginning, but God’s end goal and His beginning are two different things. Not two different persons,…

In the past few years, I have heard much talk and many pronouncements about December 25th and when and how Christians ought to celebrate the birth of Christ. I wish to address this as clearly as I can to help us and hopefully resolve any misunderstanding in the hearts and minds of God’s people. First, let’s look at dates. It should be very clear to all of our hearts that no date is holy and no date is evil. A…

Joseph Seiss devotes the last chapter in his 1882 book The Gospel in the Stars to the question of the Star of Bethlehem, the Magi from the East, the historical and astronomical proofs we can observe, and the conclusion we can draw about the date of Jesus’s birth. The writing may be a little difficult for modern readers, but we know of no better source for unveiling the important truths of God’s purpose in the heavens. Read the entire public…

We are in a change of seasons. Not only individually, but we are to go through a change of seasons corporately. There’s something in the lesson of the natural seasons that is so important for us to understand. It is important when God leads us into a different season not to fight to get back into the former one. We’re not losing something. When God takes us into a different season, we’re gaining. For too long the body of Christ…

The heavenlies have been lost in the church today. We have made the kingdom of God an earthly, carnal replica of the kingdoms of this world. Think with me for a minute about Paul the Apostle before He had the revelation of the kingdom. Think of his concept before the Road to Damascus. What was the Jewish concept of the kingdom then? “Oh, we have to overthrow the Roman Empire, and then God is going to sit on His throne,…
