The Crucial Revelation Of Life In The Scriptures

According to the Bible, Christ is life itself, and the church is God's spiritual building. In this booklet compiled from the Life-study of John, Witness Lee shows that the entire Bible is a book of life and building. He examines crucial verses in Genesis, the Gospel of John, and Revelation to demonstrate how the theme of life and building introduced in Genesis and consummated in Revelation is bridged by the record in John's Gospel.

The Bible as the complete divine revelation is profound. Although it reveals many truths, in The Basic Revelation in the Holy Scriptures, Witness Lee points out that the Bible's essential revelation is embodied in seven truths. They are God's plan, Christ's redemption, the Spirit's application, the believers, the church, the kingdom, and the New Jerusalem.

These messages cover the primary and crucial aspect of the Lord's recovery of the truth today—to recover the dispensing of the Triune God as life into His redeemed people in order that He may be fully expressed on the earth.

Every brother and sister should have a clear understanding that at the time they prayed and called on the Lord, the Lord's life entered into them. This is not a doctrine but a reality. When a person calls on the Lord, the Lord's life will enter into him. If someone desires to look into the Christian life, he must realize that the Christian life is basically a matter of life. Life is the origin and foundation of everything. It is our way, our power, and our light. Life is everything to us. Since life is such a crucial matter, our most urgent need is to learn how to touch the way of life so that we may grow in life.
