Taking the way of Prayer, the Spirit, and the Word to carry out God’s Move Today

To pray means to stop ourselves from doing anything apart from the Lord, so that He can do His work through us. To pray means that we realize that we are nothing and can do nothing; prayer is the real denial of the self. Witness Lee

As those who are the increase and continuation of Christ on earth today, we need to clearly see from the book of Acts that the God-ordained way to carry out God's move to fulfill His New Testament economy is entirely by three main substances - … [Continue reading]

Speaking and Teaching the Economy of God Preserves us in the Oneness and One Accord

The only way that we can be preserved in the eternal oneness is to teach the same thing in God’s economy. This kind of teaching is called the New Testament ministry, the ministry of the new covenant. The ministry of the new covenant is only to minister the Triune God, processed, to be dispensed into His chosen people as life and life supply to produce members of Christ to form the Body to express the Triune God. This is the New Testament economy. Witness Lee

The only way we can practice the one accord and thus keep the oneness of the Spirit in the practical church life is to emphasize and speak only one thing: God's economy, the eternal economy of God. All other things can bring in divisions, even good … [Continue reading]

Speaking the Same Thing with One Mouth in One Accord as the One New Man Today

When you want to speak, when I want to speak, when any one of us wants to speak, we must resolve the basic question: who is the person that is speaking here?...When anyone speaks, it is Christ who is the person. What is the result? The result is that there is only one mouth. Witness Lee

Many believers, when they read verses such as, "that you all speak the same thing...but that you be attuned in the same mind and in the same opinion" (1 Cor. 1:10) or "that with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord … [Continue reading]

Keeping the Oneness of the Spirit by Practicing the One Accord in the Church Life

To keep the oneness, to apply the oneness, to use the oneness, to enjoy the oneness, to spend the oneness, we need to practice the one accord. However, we should practice the one accord not only among the saints in our particular locality; we must practice the one accord among all the churches universally. Witness Lee

It is crucial for us in the church life to keep the oneness of the Spirit by practicing the one accord. In John 17:21 the Lord prayed and aspired that all His believers would be one; He then later became the Spirit in His resurrection and breathed … [Continue reading]

Having the Increase of Christ Requires that we have the One Accord, the Master Key

The one thing that should be focused on, stressed, and ministered in the Lord’s recovery is the eternal economy of God (1 Tim. 1:3-4). The content of God’s eternal economy is Christ; actually, Christ Himself in His full ministry of three stages is the divine economy (John 1:14; 1 Cor. 15:45b; Rev. 1:4; 3:1; 4:5; 5:6). God’s desire is to have a recovery purely and wholly of the person of Christ (Col. 1:17b, 18b; 2 Cor. 12:2; 2:10; 3:3). Witness Lee

After seeing the increase of Christ as His continuation in the gospel of John, in the book of Acts, and in the ministering life, this week we are enjoying the increase of Christ for the increase and spread of the church through the one accord with … [Continue reading]

Seeking to Recover the Dormant Saints and Abiding in the Lord to Bear much Fruit

In order to minister life to others and recover the dormant saints among us, we must have the loving and forgiving heart of our Father God and the shepherding and seeking spirit of our Savior Christ (Luke 15:4-6, 8-9, 20-23). Witness Lee

The church is the increase of Christ, and the increase of Christ is by ministering life to others according to the law of increase. Everything in the church must be in the nature of life, with the content of life, and in the imparting of life; … [Continue reading]

How Christ as the Son of Man Cherishes us and as the Son of God He Nourishes Us

1 John 4:10 Herein is love, not that we have loved God but that He loved us and sent His Son as a propitiation for our sins.

As believers in Christ, we need to follow the pattern of the Lord Jesus who as the Son of Man cherishes us and as the Son of God nourishes us; we need to experience and present Christ as the attracting factor to minister life to people and gain them … [Continue reading]
