Turning to the Age of the Spirit

“Today the Lord intends to turn the age; He desires to turn to the age of the Spirit. I have a deep conviction that the Lord’s way hereafter is altogether in the Spirit.”

We may love and fear the Lord, desire a godly living that pleases Him, and want to live according to the teaching of the Bible, being well-behaved in all things. Such a living is similar to the teachings of Confucius, but it is far from the central point revealed in the Scriptures. The central point of the Bible shows that the Lord is the life-giving Spirit. He is leading us to turn from things outside of the Spirit to the Spirit Himself, from rituals to the Spirit, from knowledge to the Spirit, and from the letter of the Bible to the Spirit. He has enlivened and regenerated our human spirit, and now He dwells in us to be our life and everything. This is the central point of the Bible that the Lord wants to recover today.
