“This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church.” (Eph. 5:32) It is important that we understand the mysteries of creation as they concern Christ and the Church. One of those mysteries is “that in the dispensation of the fullness of times He might gather together in one all things inContinue reading “Mysteries of Creation”

The Normal Christian Life
“In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.” (Jn. 1:4) After my retirement, my wife and I moved unto an acreage. A large part of the reason for this move was our understanding of the times we live in. We are preparing for more glorious and more difficult days ahead. AsContinue reading “The Normal Christian Life”
The Powers of the Age to Come
“and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come” (Heb. 6:5) As we enter the last days, we can see from a distance the start of the Millennium Age where the Bride of Christ will rule and reign with Christ on the earth (Rev. 20:4). Soon, Christ willContinue reading “The Powers of the Age to Come”
Restoration of the Church
“They have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me, that I should not reign over them.” (1Sam. 8:7). Even though this happened in the days of Samuel, there is a principle here that applies to believers today. Of course, we do not want to be guilty of rejecting the Lord as our King, butContinue reading “Restoration of the Church”
The Main Thing
“Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” (Phil. 3:13,14) I have never forgotten the instruction theContinue reading “The Main Thing”

Communion of the Holy Spirit
“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.” (2Cor. 13:14) The three persons of the Godhead are united in purpose, but they have different personalities and functions. In our pursuit of God, it is important to know and relateContinue reading “Communion of the Holy Spirit”
Streams in the Desert
“For waters shall burst forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert.” (Isa. 35:6b) One of the things I try to do in meetings is release the river of God. On one occasion, while attending a large gathering in Edmonton, I became focussed on praying for a greater release of the anointing as weContinue reading “Streams in the Desert”
Serving With Your Gift
“As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” (1Pe. 4:10) When we think of gifts, we often think of talents. There is a difference between natural talents and the gift of grace that Peter is referring to. Even as we all haveContinue reading “Serving With Your Gift”
Be Strong and Courageous
“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” (Josh. 1:9) It is quite normal for us to experience fear, but we must not be controlled by it. We are approaching the end of theContinue reading “Be Strong and Courageous”
