Writings on Christian leadership and leader development by Malcolm Webber
Everything is in Jesus. Do not seek anything outside of Jesus. He died on the cross to restore you to Himself. Jesus did not die just so that you may live a righteous, ethical life; He died to restore you to Himself, and in union with Him your heart will be captivated by the beauty and invigorated by the power of Divinely-imparted [...]

Jesus is the Author and Perfecter of our faith. Our personal experiential knowledge of Him and our faith in Him are inseparable. Faith that is purely academic, consisting in nothing more than mental assent with Scriptural principles that may in themselves be sound, is not authentic faith and in times of trial and testing it will [...]

We do new Christians the gravest of injustices when we teach them how to “play the part” of a Christian without giving them the inward reality of experience of Jesus Christ. We teach them how to act “holy”, how to live “righteously”, and how to talk “faith”, and then require it all of them. But unless we have in truth actually led them [...]

Christianity is the restoration of man to fellowship and union with His God. Out of this inward union, the Christian life grows. Out of this partaking of the life of Christ Himself, is generated that same life within the believer: unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you… Whoever eats [...]

The Christian Life and Leadership Are in Jesus! The Christian life is in Jesus. The Christian life is Jesus Christ. It is a living union and communion with Him. It is a daily experience of inward fellowship with Him, out of which everything else flows. Unfortunately, the church today is filled with goals that fall far below this great [...]

That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched – this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us. We [...]

Our knowledge of the Word of Truth has many God-ordained purposes, some of which are as follows. Firstly, our knowledge of the Word of God, by the revelation of the Holy Spirit, should lead us into the personal experience and knowledge of God. We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know [...]

The Word of God Will Bring Us to Its Author Jesus died to bring us to God, to restore us to fellowship with God. His death was not a theological construct but a fact; and so is the relationship with Himself and His Father that He purposed should be ours through His death. We dare not reduce the Christian life to a mere theory of legal [...]

When God created man, He had a deeper purpose in mind than merely to create a world and then someone to rule over it on His behalf. God’s purpose in the creation of man was fellowship: fellowship with Himself. This was in His heart from the very beginning. This purpose has never changed. Although Adam sinned and plunged himself and his [...]

We have identified ten patterns of healthy thinking; core habits of the mind that come from inward divine life and lead to fruitful outward action. The last several Letters introduced the first: looking at God. The continuous experience of inward union with Christ is the source and center of all other healthy thinking behaviors. This is [...]
