A message which expresses at once their triumphant assurance in the finished work of Christ and their humble sense of the high qualities called for in his servants has a fresh relevance for us now, when Christian work everywhere is on trial.

May God give us grace not only to heed its challenge but to find ways, while there is time, of applying its lessons in our own sphere of opportunity.

About the Author

Watchman Nee became a Christian in mainland China in 1920 at the age of seventeen and began writing in the same year. Throughout the nearly thirty years of his ministry, Watchman Nee was clearly manifested as a unique gift from the Lord to His Body for His move in this age. In 1952 he was imprisoned for his faith; he remained in prison until his death in 1972. His words remain an abundant source of spiritual revelation and supply to Christians throughout the world.
