I.　God needs a corporate people to be raised up by His grace through the high peak of the divine revelation to live a life according to this revelation:

A.　A revival is the practice, the practicality, of the vision we have seen.

B.　If we practice living the life of a God-man, which is the reality of the Body of Christ, spontaneously a corporate model will be built up, a model living in the economy of God; this model will be the greatest revival in the history of the church to bring the Lord back—cf. 2 Pet. 3:10-12; Rev. 19:7.

C.　The practical way to live a life according to the high peak of the divine revelation is that we must be a God-man—1 Pet. 2:21; cf. Rev. 21:2-3; 22:17a:

1.　We need to follow the pattern of the Lord Jesus, bearing the brands, the characteristics of His life—Gal. 6:17.

2.　To follow Jesus is to live the life of a God-man, not by the human life but by the divine life, so that God may be expressed, or manifested, in the flesh in all His divine attributes becoming the human virtues—1 Tim. 3:15-16.

II.　The only life that is pleasing to God is the life that is a repetition of the life Christ lived on the earth; this is a life that experiences Christ in His experiences as the burnt offering—Lev. 1:9; John 8:29; 2 Cor. 5:9:

A.　The burnt offering, which was wholly for God's satisfaction, as food for God, signifies Christ as God's pleasure and satisfaction, as the One whose living on earth was absolutely for God—Lev. 1:3; Num. 28:2-3; John 5:30; 6:38; 8:29; Heb. 10:5-10:

1.　As the burnt offering, Christ was brought to the slaughter—Isa. 53:7; Matt. 27:31; Phil. 2:8.

2.　As the burnt offering, Christ was slaughtered—Lev. 1:5a; Luke 23:21; Acts 2:23.

3.　As the burnt offering, Christ was skinned, stripped of the outward appearance of His human virtues—Lev. 1:6; Matt. 11:19; Mark 3:22; John 8:48; 10:20; Matt. 26:65; 27:28, 35; Psa. 22:18.

4.　As the burnt offering, Christ was cut into pieces—Lev. 1:6; Mark 15:29-32; Luke 23:35-39; Psa. 22:16-17.

5.　Christ's experience in being wisdom is signified by the head of the burnt offering—Luke 2:40, 52; Mark 9:40; Matt. 12:30; 21:23-27; 22:15-22, 34-40.

6.　Christ's experience in being God's delight is signified by the fat of the burnt offering—Lev. 1:8-9; Matt. 3:17; 17:5; Isa. 42:1; Matt. 12:18; John 6:38; 8:29; 7:16-18.

7.　Christ's experience in the inward parts of His being is signified by the inward parts of the burnt offering—Luke 2:49; John 2:17; Matt. 26:39; Isa. 53:12; 42:4; Mark 2:8.

8.　Christ's experience in His walk is signified by the legs of the burnt offering—Luke 24:19; John 8:46; 10:30; 8:29; 16:32; Luke 23:46; John 14:30b.

9.　Christ's experience of being kept by the Holy Spirit from defilement is signified by the legs and the inward parts of the burnt offering being washed—Lev. 1:9, 13a; Luke 4:1; Heb. 7:26.

B.　The more we enjoy Christ as our burnt offering, the more we realize how sinful we are; then we can take Him as our sin offering more deeply than ever (Lev. 6:25), and this causes us to enjoy Him more as the burnt offering (16:3, 5).

C.　By laying our hands on Christ as our burnt offering, we are joined to Him, and He and we become one—Lev. 1:4:

1.　In such a union, such an identification, all our weaknesses, defects, and faults are taken on by Him—2 Cor. 5:21; Gal. 2:20a.

2.　By such a union, Christ becomes one with us and lives in us, repeating in us the life that He lived on earth, the life of the burnt offering—Gal. 6:17.

D.　We need to take Christ as our burnt offering daily (Num. 28:3-4; Lev. 1:2-4; 6:12-13; cf. 2 Tim. 2:6) so that we may experience Christ in His experiences as the burnt offering, not imitating Christ outwardly but living Him in our daily life—2 Cor. 5:14-15; Phil. 1:19-21; Acts 27:22-25; 28:3-9; 1 Cor. 1:9:

1.　We need to experience Christ in His being brought to the slaughter—Phil. 3:10; Gal. 6:17; 1 Cor. 11:1; Acts 21:20-36.

2.　We need to experience Christ in His being slaughtered—2 Cor. 4:7-13, 16-18.

3.　We need to experience Christ in His being skinned—Acts 24:5-6; 2 Cor. 6:8; 12:15-18; Matt. 5:11.

4.　We need to experience Christ in His being cut to pieces—1 Cor. 4:12-13.

5.　We need to experience Christ in His wisdom—1 Cor. 1:24, 30; 2:7; Col. 1:28; 2 Chron. 1:10.

6.　We need to experience Christ in His being a delight to God—Psa. 20:3; Lev. 1:16b; 2 Cor. 5:9; 1 Thes. 2:4-8; Gal. 1:10; Rom. 14:17-18.

7.　We need to experience Christ in the inward parts of His being—Phil. 2:5; 1 Cor. 2:16b; Rom. 8:6; Phil. 1:8; 2 Cor. 11:10; 1 Cor. 16:24.

8.　We need to experience Christ in His walk—Matt. 11:29; Eph. 4:20; 1 Cor. 11:1; 1 Pet. 2:21; Rom. 8:4.

9.　We need to experience Christ in His being kept by the Holy Spirit from defilement—1 Cor. 6:11; Titus 3:5; John 7:38-39; cf. Dan. 1:8.

III.　The more we take Christ as our burnt offering, the more the outward expression of His beauty is ascribed to us for His magnification (Lev. 7:8; Psa. 90:17; Exo. 28:2; Phil. 1:20), and the more we enjoy Christ as our enveloping power to cover, protect, and preserve us (Phil. 4:13; 2 Cor. 12:9).
