Phillipians 3:10-11
That I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and thefellowship of His sufferings, being made conformable unto His death;
if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.
TO KNOW GOD
Fall at Jesus' feet
Stand for every test
Strengthen the weak
Understand true rest
Walk in His stepsFollow His pattern
Speak His words
Love with passion
Pray to Our Father
Trust His provision
Lay down your life
Leave it in His hands
Rise for a purpose
Choose to live again
Realize with all your heart
To know God is to love Him

THE SPIRITUAL SOCIETY
Till we all come . . unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ.
Ephesians 4:13
Rehabilitation means the putting back of the whole human race into the relationship God designed it to be in, and this is what Jesus Christ did in Redemption. The Church ceases to be a spiritual society when it is on the look-out for the development of its own organization. The rehabilitation of the human race on Jesus Christ's plan means the realization of Jesus Christ in corporate life as well as in individual life. Jesus Christ sent apostles and teachers for this purpose - that the corporate Personality might be realized. We are not here to develop a spiritual life of our own, or to enjoy spiritual retirement; we are here so to realize Jesus Christ that the Body of Christ may be built up. Am I building up the Body of Christ, or am I looking for my own personal development only? The essential thing is my personal relationship to Jesus Christ - "That I may know Him." To fulfil God's design means entire abandonment to Him. Whenever I want things for myself, the relationship is distorted. It will be a big humiliation to realize that I have not been concerned about realizing Jesus Christ, but only about realizing what He has done for me. "My goal is God Himself, not joy nor peace, Nor even blessing, but Himself, my God." Am I measuring my life by this standard or by anything less?
