With startling effect, Lance Lambert reveals the symmetrical design evident throughout the Bible, including the fascinating relationship between Genesis and Revelation. The author uncovers a dimension of the Bible that most believers will surely find a new revelation. The author writes, “There is no truth that is of greater importance than this matter of God’s eternal purpose. Once you begin to understand God’s ultimate aim in time, and for the ages to come, life becomes more meaningful and signifi cant. Why did God create this universe and this earth, which at our present extent of knowledge is unique? What was His aim and goal in its creation? Why did He create mankind? And when man fell short of His glory through sin, why did He persevere and provide salvation? Is that salvation an end in itself, or is it a means to an end, with everything provided within it to reach the final goal? And how can I be involved in the fulfi llment of that purpose?” Answering these very questions, this passionate book will point you to a fresh and exciting understanding of what it truly means to be a Christian. It helps answer the ultimate question: What is the meaning of life?
I always wanted to know the truth of Gods word the Bible and my search led me to a MA degree in Religious Theology and after 25 plus years of study and researching, I finally came to understand Gods purpose in creating this universe and the people in it. In this work, the reader will learn Hell doesnt exist yet! God isnt looking to Zap any of his children. And, as God is real, Satan is as real as the arm on your body. But God has given you power over Satan if you will use it by having faith in Jesus and accepting his sacrifice for your sins. Gods word, the Bible, tells us in several places hes closed the minds of most of his children so they cant understand, but he also said to ask and it will be given to you, seek and ye shall fi nd, and to knock and it will be opened to you. Trust God and he will give you your hearts desire.

Have you ever wondered why you are here? Have you ever asked yourself, for what purpose did God make man or what is the reason for our existence? Does God have a collective purpose for everything that He has made? Not only does the Scripture answer all these questions, but it speaks to the fact that the Father actually has an eternal purpose and we are a valuable part of that plan. Ephesians 3:11 says that God's eternal purpose is orchestrated through Christ Jesus. Therefore, once we have an understanding of what this purpose is, then we will become enlightened and realize what our purpose is and the reason for our existence. This book represents Volume one of God's Eternal Purpose, which is the third book in "The Teachers Series" and strategically reveals His kingdom purpose throughout the ages. It also speaks concerning religion, making comparisons between what it offers versus that of the kingdom. Truly, as we navigate the Scripture, we get a glimpse of the mind of the Father and His manifold wisdom.
God's Eternal Plan by Watchman Nee,Witness Lee Pdf
Our Eternal God Has an Eternal Plan, and His Plan Far Surpasses the Mere Satisfaction of Our Individual Hopes and Desires. God has His Own Desire, His Own Goal: He will Not Be Satisfied Until Every Trace of Rebellion is Eliminated from the Universe and all Things Are Headed Up in Christ. The Role of the Church is Crucial in the Accomplishment of God's Eternal Plan. Today, Like Never Before, the Church is in the Midst of a Universal Strugle Between God and His Enemy, Satan. This Struggle Began with the Rebellion of Satan, Persisted with Satan's Corruption of Man, and Continues to this Day As the Church Endeavors to Experience and Apply the Effectiveness of Christ's Death on the Cross. The Responsibility for Satan's Defeat Now Rests with the Church, as it Daily Must Seek Through Revelation and Prayer to Advance God's Interest on the Earth and to Shun Every Vestige of Satanic Influence.
The Ministry of the Word, Vol. 22, No. 2 by Various Authors Pdf
This issue of The Ministry of the Word contains the nine messages given during the international training for elders and responsible ones held in Leipzig, Germany, from October 5-7, 2017. The general subject of this series of messages is "The Recovery of the Church." The intrinsic significance of the church is the corporate expression of Christ, who is the embodiment and expression of the Triune God. The reality of the church as the expression of Christ is heavenly, "Christly," and "resurrectionly." In time and space, however, the church can deviate and become degraded, deformed, and corrupted due to the enemy's work of producing substitutes for Christ, dividing the Body of Christ, and killing the function of the members of the Body of Christ. From the beginning, God's intention was to have the church, and this was taught by the apostles (Eph. 3:10-11). Although much of the truth concerning the church has been lost or distorted, our God is a God of recovery regardless of what the enemy has done. The Lord's recovery of the church brings us back to the beginning for the fulfillment of God's eternal purpose and original intention regarding the church. For the recovery of the church, we need to overcome the degradation of the church that was brought in according to the principle of Babylon--exercising human ability and effort, hypocrisy, self-glorification, and harlotry. The way to overcome the principle of Babylon is to take Christ as our burnt offering so that He can repeat the life of the burnt offering within us. By this way we can be "Christified" and become His duplication for the building up of the Body of Christ to consummate the holy city, New Jerusalem. The books of Ezra and Nehemiah record the return of the Israelites from Babylon to Jerusalem to rebuild the temple and the city. This return signifies the Lord's recovery of a remnant out of today's division and confusion back to the original ground of oneness for the building up of the genuine church as the house of God and the kingdom of God. To strengthen and enrich the recovery of the church, the Lord needs priestly scribes like Ezra--those who contact God, are saturated with God, and are skillful in the Word of God to reeducate and reconstitute God's people for His testimony and His corporate expression on the earth. The Lord also needs those who are pure and properly aggressive like Nehemiah to build the great and high wall of the holy city for our separation unto God, the protection of God's interests, and the expression of God. Practically speaking, in the Lord's recovery today, we are mainly recovering the proper church life and the proper living of the church. The church life is the corporate living of the perfected God-men, a living in the reality of the Body of Christ. The church life is the life of Christ being lived out through His members in a corporate way. It is our being headed up under the unique headship of Christ and enjoying the mutual flowing of fellowship in oneness as the continuation of Christ's being glorified by the Father so that we may be the corporate expression of Christ. In order for the Lord to return, He must recover the life and living of the church. The church has two main aspects--universal and local. The church is constituted of the universal God, but it exists on earth in many localities; in nature the church is universal in God, but in practice the church is local, in a definite place. Without the universal aspect, the church is void of content; without the local aspect, it is impossible for the church to have any expression and practice. The genuine oneness is the Triune God who as the Spirit today is being added to us and is permeating us, taking us over, and filling us. Only the Triune God is the factor of the genuine oneness. The ground of oneness is simply the processed Triune God applied to our being. In Psalm 133 the fine oil, referring to the holy anointing oil in Exodus 30:23-33, signifies the all-inclusive compound Spirit. This anointing Spirit is the element of our oneness; when the compound Spirit applies Himself to us and spreads over and in our entire being in a gradual way, He makes us genuinely one. If we want to have the recovery of the church, we must have a clear revelation concerning the three most basic, essential, and crucial statuses of the church--as the Body of Christ, as the new man, and as the counterpart of Christ. The Body is the issue of the headship of Christ. Christ, as the One who fills all in all, needs His Body to be His fullness, the expression of the Head (cf. Eph. 1:22-23). For the building up of the Body of Christ, we need to practice the scriptural way to meet and to serve--the God-ordained way revealed in the holy Word. The new man is Christ in all the saints. This indwelling Christ permeates and replaces us to remove all natural distinctions and to constitute everyone with Himself. In order for us to experience the reality of Christ being all the members of the new man, we need to take Christ as our life and our person and live Him, not ourselves. The one new man fulfills God's eternal purpose of expressing God and dealing with His enemy. The church as the Body of Christ and the one new man will become the bride, the counterpart, of Christ. The Lord will return for His bride. The church, the counterpart of Christ, as typified by Eve, is a pure product out of Christ, built out of the uncreated life released by Christ through His death and resurrection. Only those who are regenerated of Christ and who live by Christ as the church can match Christ and complement Him. In the New Jerusalem the processed and consummated redeeming Triune God as the universal Husband will live a married life for eternity with this redeemed, regenerated, transformed, and glorified corporate person as His wife. This will be the consummation of the universal divine romance. The Announcements section of this issue contains a list of upcoming conferences and trainings hosted by Living Stream Ministry and a website link for information related to similar events in Europe.
The Holy Word for Morning Revival - The Recovery of the Church by Witness Lee Pdf
This book is intended as an aid to believers in developing a daily time of morning revival with the Lord in His word. At the same time, it provides a limited review of the International Training for Elders and Responsible Ones held in Leipzig, Germany, on October 5-7, 2017. The general subject of the training was “The Recovery of the Church.” Through intimate contact with the Lord in His word, the believers can be constituted with life and truth and thereby equipped to prophesy in the meetings of the church unto the building up of the Body of Christ.
Christianity is Jesus Christ. It is not the teaching, doctrine, system or organization of Christ. Rather, it is Jesus Christ himself. We need to see Him as God sees Him. Yet this can only come about by revelation from above. The Holy Spirit will reveal Jesus to us. And when we do see Him as God sees Him, we will fall down and worship. Such, then, is the intent of this series of messages, whose overarching theme is best summed up in the author’s choice of title to the entire series: “But We See Jesus” (Hebrews 2:9a). All nineteen messages were delivered by the author before a Christian audience in Richmond, Virginia over a three-year period, commencing in the year 1992. May God use this volume to inspire His people to see the Savior and Lord we have so that we may truly worship Him with all our hearts and love Him with all our heart, mind, will and strength. Jesus alone is worthy!
The Practical Expression of the Church by Witness Lee Pdf
Witness Lee speaks of the church in The Practical Expression of the Church, not only from the viewpoint of God’s eternal purpose, which is the church triumphant and universal, but also from the viewpoint of the believers’ experience and enjoyment of the riches of Christ, which produces a local expression of the church, an expression that displays the oneness of the Body of Christ and brings in God’s commanded blessing (Psalm 133).
How to Live and Keep from Dying by Dick Braswell Pdf
This handbook on how to live and enjoy the Abundant Christian Life is drawn from wonderful experiences I was so blessed to share with Pat, my loving wife of 59 years. This very Special Lady was the light of my life and the joy of my heart from the time we became sweethearts in junior high school until she slipped away to heaven in March of this year (2013). It is in loving memory of her that I dedicate this book with hopes that many will be encouraged and helped in their quest to Live and Keep from Dying. Dick Braswell 2013
What is the point if you have been saved and you have the Bible and you even have an experience of the Holy Spirit but you do not know the purpose of God to which you have been saved, of which the Bible is the revelation and the Holy Spirit is the custodian? God saved you according to a purpose, which was in His heart before He created the world. He has a purpose from eternity to eternity. It spans the whole of time. When he saved us, it was according to that purpose.
Harold Hoehner has taught biblical exegesis to thousands of students over the years. He now brings that experience to bear on this important work. He begins with a helpful introduction to the letter of Ephesians in which he addresses issues of authorship, structure and genre, historical setting, purpose, and theology. At the end of the introduction, the author includes a detailed bibliography for further reading. Hoehner then delves into the text of Ephesians verse by verse, offering the Greek text, English translation, and detailed commentary. He interacts extensively with the latest scholarship and provides a fair and thorough discussion of every disputed point in the book. Pastors, students, and scholars looking for a comprehensive treatment on Ephesians will be interested in this commentary. Hoehner's interaction with the latest scholarship combined with his detailed exegesis will make this new commentary the only resource they will need to consult.
