The Vision of the Church
The Vision of the Church is fulfilled through five stages:
- Understanding who I am
- Approaching GOD
- Being born again
- Phenomenon of Transference, and
- Shining.
Stage 1: Understanding Who I Am
ACKNOWLEDGING ONESELF
Acknowledging oneself is knowing the coexistence of both evil, which took root from Satan, and of the good of being made in likeness of His image, and this is the first stage of the vision of the church.
KNOWING
Moreover, KNOWING YOURSELF is finding who you are. Are you a chick or an eaglet? This question raises another question.
UNDERSTANDING & Making Decision
‘Which life will you choose? Will you live as a chick, or will you live as an eaglet?’
‘Will you live in the colors of the world, or will you live within the light?’
Chick, or Eaglet
Color versus Light
What is it that controls over you?
Stage 2: Approaching GOD
The process for Recovering the Garden of Eden.
On one hand, we call this “the process of dying.” Later, we change the term “dying” into “laying down our ego and our desires,” because the term was confused with actual physical death. However, this refers to the process undergone for the sake of being reborn.
2 Corinthians 4 King James Version (KJV)
16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
What is Prayer?
Is the Bible a Book?
Why do you come to church?
Where are you heading, now?
Beneath the shade of the Father, when the center of your heart is oriented towards the Father, (your God): where will you be headed–for the duration of a day, a week, or perhaps a year–and, for the rest of your life?
Repentance
The First Step towards “the Narrow Gate” is Prayer of Repentance.
Matthew 4 King James Version (KJV)
17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Stage 3: Being born again
John 3 King James Version (KJV)
3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born? 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. 8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. …
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

Breaking Down False Gospel
Stage 4: The Phenomenon of Transference
Walk with GOD
- What’s the matter?: phenomenon
- Why has it happened?: the essence
- How can it be solved?: the road of walking with GOD
In a Single Prayer
- To Empty through genuine repentance of all my heart
- Pray in the Spirit
- Ask within GOD’s Will
- Faith in the Prayer
Praise the LORD
True Worship is
Laying down all things that I have made my masters,
And the center of my heart faces the Father,
And then only being opened,
the Spiritual Communication.
Take off the Shell
Do not think of the matters of the world,
and think of the matters of heaven.
Where are you giving your heart?
Stage 5: Shining
Matthew 5 King James Version (KJV)
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
