Live Ministry meeting :D

I attended the Live ministry meeting. It was a unexpected trip, but totally worth the 5 torturous hours in the car.

The message was on "In John's Epistles" -the Flow of the Lord Jesus within Us-te Fellowship of the Eternal Life.

C. fellowship is the imparting of the Triune God-the Father, the Son, and the Spirit- into the believers as their unique portion and blessing for them to enjoy today and for eternity. -1 Cor. 1:9; 2 Cor. 13:14; Num. 6:22-27
F. First John reveals the principles of the divine fellowship, 2 John reveals that we must have no fellowship with those who deny Christ, and 3 John reveals that we should stay in the one fellowship of God's family by sending forward those who travel for the gospel and the ministry of the word in a manner worthy of God and by not loving to be first in the church.
II.A. We enter into the vertical aspect of the divine fellowship by the divine Spirit, the Holy Spirit; this aspect of fellowship refers to our fellowship with the Triune God in our loving Him-2 Cor. 13:14; 1 John 1:3,6; Mark 12:30
B. We enter into the horizontal aspect of the divine fellowship by the human spirit; this aspect of our fellowship refers to our fellowship with one another by the exercise of our spirit in our loving one another-Phil.2:1; Rev. 1:10; 1 John 1:2-3, 7; 1 Cor. 16:18; Mark 12:31; Rom. 13:8-10; Gal. 5:13-15
C. The one divine fellowship is an interwoven fellowship-the horizontal fellowship is interwoven with the vertical fellowship:
2. Our horizontal fellowship with the saints brings us into vertical fellowship with the Lord: then our vertical fellowship with the Lord brings us into horizontal fellowship with the saints.
3. We must maintain both the vertical and horizontal aspects of the divine fellowship in order to be healthy spiritually- cf. 1 John 1:7,9
D. The divine fellowship is everything in the Christian life!
III. 4. The Lord uses our failures to show us how horrible, ugly, and abominable we are, causing us to forsake all that is from the self and to COMPLETELY depend on God.

Read Psalms 103:1-4, 13-14; 32:1-2

5. Taking Christ as our trespass offerin to receive the forgiveness of sins issues in our fearig God and loving God-Psalms 130:4; Luke 7:47-50
IV. As we are enjoying Christ in the divine fellowship, we continually experience a cycle in our spiritual life of four crucial things- the eternal life, the fellowship of the eternal life, the divine light, and the blood of Jesus the Son of God; such a cycle briga us onward in the growth of the divine life until we reach the maturity of life to corporately arrive at a full-grown man, at the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ-1 John 1:1-9; Heb. 6:1; Eph. 4:13

My Prayer "Lord, I love you! Lord, I need You! Lord, I want to COMPLETELY depend on You!"
