There have always been many voices saying “This is the way to know God.” Today’s media explosion has created more voices and more confusion. Why then another? Our purpose is to share truth to help strengthen your relationship with God and with other believers in your locality.

Personal connection with other believers cannot be replaced by the mass media. It is much more satisfying to have a deep spiritual relationship with ten believers than to be in a crowd of ten thousand. Every individual is important to God, and His plan involves each one in a very real way. There are things that are important to God that can only take place in close personal relationships.

The goal of God is to build a family of His children together in love, walking in truth. Personal submission and obedience to Christ will bring conformity of each member to Christ, and a growing expression of the nature of God in a local gathering. The testimony going out to the world around will be as a “light set on a hill that cannot be hidden” and “the pillar and ground of the truth.”

Episode 132 Building on the foundation by Revelation of Christ

Paul said he laid Christ as the foundation of God’s building. To build properly on that foundation we must also build according to Christ. To do this we must have supernatural revelation of Christ from God. How do we get this revelation? The building of God is all spiritual. It cannot be done with natural understanding. This leaves us on our knees before God for spiritual insight that only He can give. Within that revelation of Christ is the light we need to walk in to be effective in our labor for God’s purpose and glory.

  • The foundation is a true relationship with God (Eph. 1:15)
  • We are dependent on God (Eph. 1:16-17)
  • In this relationship with God (union and communion)
    • We see God’s hope (eternal goal--Eph. 1:18)
    • God’s final inheritance in those whom He has redeemed)
    • The power of God to accomplish His purpose (Eph. 1:19-21)
  • The vessel in which He is working His eternal purpose is the church (Eph. 1:22)
  • God’s purpose is to reveal Himself  through the Body of Christ (Eph. 1:23)
  • Our part for God to be able to impart this revelations is:
    • Acknowledging our utter dependence on God for all things (John 15:5)
    • Willing to pay the price (Rev. 3:18)
    • Obedience to what God has revealed to us (John 14:19-21)
  • God wants to reveal Christ to us. Are we hungry for that revelation?
