The Spirit and the Body
Tietoa tästä e-kirjasta
As believers we should be desperate to keep the oneness. This oneness is not the oneness of doctrine or the oneness of theology; it is the oneness of the Spirit. The oneness of the Spirit is just the Spirit Himself. To keep the oneness of the Spirit is to keep the Spirit. If we are not in the Spirit, we are not in the oneness. And if we are not in the Spirit, we cannot say that we are in the Body. The Body is one with the Spirit, and the Spirit is the reality of the Body. If we are not in the Spirit, we are not in the oneness, but in division.
In The Spirit and the Body Witness Lee presents clear and penetrating examples that test whether our living is genuinely in the Spirit and in the Body. He goes on to reveal that the Lord’s recovery in this age is fundamentally a recovery of the oneness of the Body.

Born in 1905 in northern China, Witness Lee was raised in a Christian family and educated in English-speaking schools. At the age of 19 he believed in the Lord Jesus Christ and consecrated himself to preach the gospel. Early in his service, Witness Lee met Watchman Nee and began to labor together with him. In 1949 Witness Lee was sent by Watchman Nee to Taiwan to ensure that the things delivered to them by the Lord would be preserved. In 1962 Witness Lee came to the United States and began to minister here. He ministered in weekly conferences, delivering several thousand spoken messages until 1997. He gave his last public conference in February 1997 at the age of 91. His major work, Life-Study of the Bible, comprises over 25,000 pages of commentary on every book of the Bible from the perspective of the believers' enjoyment and experience of God's divine life in Christ through the Spirit.
