Last Days

Marriages since the beginning of time are all under the ordinance of God. Two shall become one flesh, Husbands as the head and wives following the leadership of husbands. Satan certainly opposes the ordinance of marriage and anything that God has created, especially in these last days we see chaos in the realm of what a marriage should be. But the Christian marriage goes beyond an ordinance. Chris...

In Ephesians 5:22 -33 we have these famous versus “Wives submit to your husbands As the church submits to Christ and husbands love your wives as Christ loves the church,”. We have all too often taken these verses out of context as good principles for married couples. I beg all husbands and wives to look at these verses in the context of the church that is filled in spirit. (Ephesians 5:18) See how...

There is really only two realms on earth that we can be in as a Human. Just look around at everybody you see on any given day. They’re either According to the world or they’ve been called out of the world to be according to-the body of Christ. That’s the Ekklesia, the church. This is why the church needs to be realized not as a place a time or a building. The church is rather an alteration in our...

What would it look like if you walked into a Church meeting where all the saints are filled in spirit? You might wonder “ who’s in charge here?” or “what’s gotten into these people?” Or “What or who is influencing them…?” We can be so blinded by our traditional view of worship that a spirit filled meeting where Christ is the head challenges our reasoning. There has to be a logical explanation as t...

Comprehending the Will of God is Paul’s hope for the Ephesians and for your local fellowship. This is how we walk wisely in these last days and Redeem the time. Ephesians 5:15 See therefore how ye walk carefully, not as unwise but as wise, 16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. 17 For this reason be not foolish, but understanding what is the will of the Lord.

We’ve all heard the big three Faith Family Freedom! This has been our American Christian concept. Our understanding of the church in the Christian life has been divided leaving us frustrated. All of our living as believers should be for life in the church. This is where the nature of God is expressed: in the body of Jesus Christ, in the new man. Do you realize everything in your life is for the bu...

This little phrase is tucked away between putting off the old man and putting on the new man, “being renewed in the spirit of your mind!” We need to know what this means. Paul told the Corinthians to take captive of every thought lest Our opinions become a stronghold of reasoning impairing not only our own lives but hindering a way for us to go on as the body of Christ. 4 For the weapons of our wa...

This new man is the body of Jesus Christ which in eternity becomes God’s dear expression of His Son and his eternal abode. Read Ephesians 4:17-32 and see all the intricate details of how God is working with each one of us to prepare us as this new man. Take everything you face as an opportunity to gain Christ for the body, for the new man. Colossians 3:20-11 “And have put on the new man, which is...

We often ask if we are ready For his coming in an individualistic way. But are we ready corporately. Is there an expression of Christ in your fellowship.? Is there a lampstand burning? There should be.

Acts 4:33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all. Revelation 2:4 but I have against thee, that thou hast left thy first love. Ephesians 4: 12 for the perfecting of the saints; with a view to the work of the ministry, with a view to the edifying of the body of Christ; 13 until we all arrive at the unity of the faith an...

Are we the church of Last days? We should be. Paul gives us not a pattern or principles to follow in the book of Ephesians. He’s simply telling us what Christ looks like flowing through the members. The grace of God has landed in all the members. That Grace flows, with the lubricant of Christs love, to all the other members as a gift of grace supplying the body of Christ to equip the saints for th...

7 But grace was given to each one of us according to the measure of Christ's gift. 8 Therefore it says, "When he ascended on high he led a host of captives, and he gave gifts to men." (Ephesians 4:7, ESV) For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, (Titus 2:11, ESV) 14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from...

The church in last days should be very conspicuous. This is due to the fact that God beckons the church to walk worthy of His calling. And this mean that the church would certainly appear out of place in contrast to this world. Ephesians 4:1 I, the prisoner in the Lord, exhort you therefore to walk worthy of the calling wherewith ye have been called, 2 with all lowliness and meekness, with long-su...

Please open up to Ephesians chapter 3. Start at verse 4 and read along to fully enjoy this word…….. key verses 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith-that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, 19 and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be fil...

The mystery of his will is revealed here in Ephesians 1:9-10 “having made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in himself 10 for the administration of the fulness of times; to head up all things in the Christ, the things in the heavens and the things upon the earth; in him,”. But it’s not just something we read and know. We experience it in eternity...

1 For this reason I, Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles- 2 assuming that you have heard of the stewardship of God's grace that was given to me for you, 3 how the mystery was made known to me by revelation, as I have written briefly. 4 When you read this, you can perceive my insight into the mystery of Christ, (Ephesians 3:1-4)

Romans 16:25 (KJV) Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, 1 Corinthians 2:7-14 (KJV) 6 Yet among the mature we do impart wisdom, although it is not a wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are doomed to pass away. 7 But we speak the...

Merry Christmas! Luke2:14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

We are in the dispensation of the fullness of times. The kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ is upon us. Dispensation can mean stewardship, administration, governing, and economy. This word implies that God is in charge and over all things and he is dispensing his life to his church in these last days through Christ the Head of the Body. And ours is just to cooperate with this administration or...

Lions and tigers and bears oh my! I think that describes us sometimes when we read things in scripture that are challenging. Mysteries, dispensations, fullnesses of times! Oh my! Paul, you are so deep sometimes. Thank God for Paul because the Lord is using him to bring to light what is on the heart of God from eternity past. And Paul’s plea is that we need to have vision for what is on gods heart....

What is governing you in these last days? We are no different than all the saints: i.e. Noah (controlled by vision of Ark), Abraham (governed by Gods vision of the land) Moses (by vision of tabernacle, back to promise land), David (…restrained by vision Gods house) ,even Jesus (governed by the Father’s good pleasure) Apostles (controlled by vision of Christ and the church ), etc They all we’re con...

The church in your community should be a testimony of the Oneness of God. We do not create oneness, we don’t come up with a statement to agree to disagree, and we don’t conference together to find it! It’s already in you! It’s in all the church members. It’s in your wife. It’s in your husband. It’s in all those that know the Lord. This is our hope and the basis for unity among the saints. Psalms 1...

Living Stones 2 Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation- 3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good. 4 As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, 5 you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acce...

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. (2 Timothy 3:1). From that time Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised. 22 And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, "Far be it from you, Lord! This shall never happen to you." 23...
