There is a time to fast, and there is a time to feast

Leviticus chapter 7: After the division of the sacrifice between the altar and the priest, the trespass offering is shared by all priests even though it belongs to the priest who conducts the sacrifice. What a marvelous picture in Leviticus. Today we live according to the Spirit of grace, not under the law. All saints are priests and can act on behalf of a sinner to make a trespass offering. Though we have nothing to… Read More »There is a time to fast, and there is a time to feast

“Burden of Proof” in Life

A father’s letter to a child There’s a very basic legal concept called “burden of proof,” which you may know about. I’m going to use this as an analogy to explain a very basic principle of life to you. It is important. So please read carefully. I don’t write to you every day. In a legal dispute, a party who bears the “burden of proof” solely bears that burden to prove what he stands for.… Read More »“Burden of Proof” in Life

The Great Ending

It’s the end of the year again. If the world even knows to be thankful, Christians certainly should be more thankful. He who is able to give thanks in good things is wise; he who is able to give thanks also in his difficult encounters has great wisdom. But for those who know the Lord, love Him, and see in Him the great end (perfection, fulfillment), gratitude in all things is more than a good… Read More »The Great Ending

Idolatrous Atheism

Many times I have seen a forwarded message of “the shortest commencement speech of Peking University”. The speech was held in the highest esteem by many Chinese, but I read it with the opposite feeling. I know many may be offended by my thoughts. But I wrote down what I really felt in my heart anyway. For some reason, these thoughts came out in English, probably because I felt in my gut that it was… Read More »Idolatrous Atheism

The Holy Spirit will not work with our hypocrisy and self-righteousness

Thanks to a brother’s sharing of the earlier history and experiences of the local assembly, I had a glimpse of the “first love” (Rev 2:4) that the assembly had in the beginning about 20 years ago. Tragically, the assembly gradually left the first love. A great treasure has been lost — a treasure in the Lord’s eyes, and a treasure to those who love the Lord. The assembly came under attack by the enemy through flesh.… Read More »The Holy Spirit will not work with our hypocrisy and self-righteousness

The Spiritual Pride

One of the most paradoxical and troubling experiences I have had in my Christian life is the existence of spiritual pride. The enemy’s scheme Pride as a human behavior is common, and is a very basic aspect of sinful human nature. But spiritual pride is much harder to understand and even harder to deal with. It’s easy to categorically say that any spiritual revelation that leads to pride is not true spiritual revelation. The real-life… Read More »The Spiritual Pride

A letter to a college student

To a girl who wants the best and hates her life for having to settle for something not as good: … although I don’t share the specific experience you have now, I know how it feels like when you are distressed by certain disappointment, disadvantage, detriment, or prejudice, and worse yet, you can’t pinpoint what that is, let alone fight against it, you’re just unhappy with dissatisfaction. In terms of people’s birth, family background, cultural… Read More »A letter to a college student

China’s future

Friends debate over the future of China. Commentators and bloggers instigate fierce arguments between those who criticize the country (including its government, society, culture, and people) and those who zealously attack the criticisms.   Though I have no intention to join the debate,  I desire to share a little bit of my observations. In today’s China, negatively criticizing everything has become a national hobby, which is not making anyone happier. On the other hand,  the… Read More »China’s future

Proverbs

How do the people in New Testament time read the book of Proverbs in the Old Testament? Some see Proverbs as just a collection of practical wisdom and therefore a lower kind of spiritual revelation than other books. Still, some see it as being on par with all other books in the Bible, but only because they see all books in the Bible as just moral teachings and practical wisdom, missing the spiritual revelation of… Read More »Proverbs
