Ministry Digest, Vol. 04, No. 12

In this issue we will continue four lines of ministry. The first line--The History of the Lord's Recovery--contains chapters 9 through 12 of The Kernel of the Bible, which are in volume 1 of The Collected Works of Witness Lee, 1977. This section includes messages on Babylon and Jerusalem, becoming stones for God's building, Christ's divinity, and Christ's humanity. The second line--Words for New Believers--contains chapters 14 through 16 of The Crucial Revelation of Life in the Scriptures, which are in volume 2 of The Collected Works of Witness Lee, 1969, and chapter 1 of The Fulfillment of God's Purpose by the Growth of Christ in Us, which is in volume 1 of The Collected Works of Witness Lee, 1970. These chapters cover our being saved by life, the development of life, and God's intention for man to take Him as life. The third line--Maturing in Life--contains chapters 15 through 18 of Perfecting Training, which are in volume 1 of The Collected Works of Witness Lee, 1980. These chapters contain messages on living Christ by praying unceasingly, living Christ by the Word and the Spirit, living Christ by being filled with the Word, and living habitually versus living Christ. The fourth line--The High Peak of the Divine Revelation--contains chapters 12 through 15 of Crystallization-study of the Gospel of John, which are in volume 4 of The Collected Works of Witness Lee, 1994ñ1997. These chapters speak of the kingdom of God and the blood and water, the apostolic ministry in cooperation with Christ's heavenly ministry, the key to the Gospel of John, and the intrinsic significance of John 1 through 16.
