      Author Contributors – Watchman Nee – Biography

      Watchman Nee

      Ni Tuosheng, or Nee T'o-sheng (Chinese: 倪柝聲; pinyin: Ní Tuòshēng; November 4, 1903 – May 30, 1972), was a Chinese church leader and Christian teacher who worked in China during the 20th century. His evangelism was influenced by the Plymouth Brethren.

      In 1922, he initiated church meetings in Fuzhou, Fujian province, that may be considered the beginning of the local churches. During his thirty years of ministry, Nee published many books expounding the Bible. He established churches throughout China and held many conferences to train Bible students and church workers. Following the Communist Revolution, Nee was persecuted and imprisoned for his faith and spent the last twenty years of his life in prison. He was honoured by Christopher H. Smith (R–NJ) in the US Congress on July 30, 2009.

      Family and childhood

      Watchman Nee was born on November 4, 1903, the third of nine children of Ni Weng-hsiu, a well-respected officer in the Imperial Customs Service, and Lin He-Ping (Peace Lin), who excelled as a child at an American-staffed Methodist mission school. His grandfather was a gifted Anglican preacher. During a stint at the Chinese Western Girls' School in Shanghai to improve her English, Lin He-Ping met Dora Yu, a young woman who gave up a potential career in medicine to serve as an evangelist and preacher. Since Nee's parents were both Methodists, he was baptized by a bishop of the Methodist Church as an infant.

      Early schooling

      In 1916, at age 13, Nee entered the Church Missionary Society Vernacular Middle School in Fuzhou, Fujian province to begin his Western-style education. He then went on to the middle school at Trinity College in Fuzhou, where he demonstrated great intelligence and ambition. Among his classmates was Wilson Wang, brother of one of Watchman Nee's good friends, Leland Wang. The two boys completed college despite severe flooding which brought cholera and plague and hardship to their region. In the final examinations, the 2 boys scored almost the same marks with Wilson Wang topping the class, followed closely by Watchman Nee in second place.

      Conversion and training

      In the spring of 1920, when Nee was 17, Dora Yu was invited to hold ten days of revival meetingsin the Church of Heavenly Peace in Fuzhou. After Nee's mother attended these meetings, she was moved to apologize to her son for a previous incident of unjust punishment. Her action impressed Nee so much that he determined to attend the next day's evangelistic meetings to see what was taking place there. After returning from the meeting, according to Nee's own account:

      On the evening of 28th April, 1920, I was alone in my room, struggling to decide whether or not to believe in the Lord. At first I was reluctant but as I tried to pray I saw the magnitude of my sins and the reality and efficacy of Jesus as the Savior. As I visualized the Lord's hands stretched out on the cross, they seemed to be welcoming me, and the Lord was saying, I am waiting here to receive you. Realizing the effectiveness of Christ's blood in cleansing my sins and being overwhelmed by such love, I accepted him there. Previously I had laughed at people who had accepted Jesus, but that evening the experience became real for me and I wept and confessed my sins, seeking the Lord's forgiveness. As I made my first prayer I knew joy and peace such as I had never known before. Light seemed to flood the room and I said to the Lord, Oh, Lord, you have indeed been gracious to me.

      — Watchman Nee, Watchman Nee's Testimony.

      As a student at Trinity College, Nee began to speak to his classmates concerning his salvation experience. Later, he recounted:

      Immediately I started putting right the matters that were hindering my effectiveness, and also made a list of seventy friends to pray for daily. Some days I would pray for them every hour, even in class. When the opportunity came I would try to persuade them to believe in the Lord Jesus... With the Lord's grace I continued to pray daily, and after several months all but one of the seventy persons were saved.

      — Watchman Nee, Watchman Nee's Testimony.

      After his conversion, Nee desired to be trained as a Christian worker. He first attended Dora Yu's Bible Institute in Shanghai, though he was still a high school student. However, he was dismissed due to his bad and lazy habits, such as sleeping in late. Eventually, Nee's seeking to improve his character brought him into close contact with a British missionary Margaret E. Barber who became his teacher and mentor. Nee would visit Barber on a weekly basis in order to receive spiritual help. Barber treated Nee as a young learner and frequently administered strict discipline. When she died in 1930, Barber left all of her belongings to Nee, who wrote:

      We feel most sorrowful concerning the news of the passing away of Miss Barber in Lo-Hsing Pagoda, Fukien. She was one who was very deep in the Lord, and in my opinion, the kind of fellowship she had with the Lord and the kind of faithfulness she expressed to the Lord are rarely found on this earth.

      — Witness Lee, Watchman Nee: A Seer of the Divine

      Revelation in the Present Age

      The Plymouth Brethren connection

      Through Barber, Watchman Nee was introduced to the writings of D.M. Panton, Robert Govett, G.H. Pember, Jessie Penn-Lewis, T. Austin-Sparks, and others. In addition, he acquired books from Plymouth Brethren teachers like John Nelson Darby, William Kelly, and C.H. Mackintosh. Eventually, his personal library encompassed over three thousand titles on church history, spiritual growth, and Bible commentary, and he became intimately familiar with the Bible through diligent study using many different methods. In the early days of his ministry, he is said to have spent one-third of his income on personal needs, one-third to assist others, and the remaining third on spiritual books. He was known for his ability to select, comprehend, discern, and memorize relevant material, and grasp and retain the main points of a book while reading.

      Nee derived many of his ideas, including plural eldership, disavowal of a clergy-laity distinction, and worship centered around the Lord's Supper, from the Plymouth Brethren. From 1930 to 1935, his movement interacted internationally with the Raven-Taylor group of Exclusive Brethren led by James Taylor, Sr. This group recognized the Local Church movement as a parallel work of God, albeit one that had developed independently. Nee refused, however, to follow their practice of isolating themselves from other Christians and rejected their ban on celebrating The Lord's Supper with other Christians. Matters came to a head when Exclusive Brethren leaders learned that during his 1933 visits to the United Kingdom and the United States Nee had broken bread with Honor Oak Christian Fellowship associated with the independent ministry of T. Austin-Sparks and with non-Brethren missionaries whom Nee had known in China. After a series of communications Nee received a letter dated 31 August 1935, signed by leading Brethren, severing fellowship with him and his movement.

      Marriage

      As a teenager, Nee fell in love with Charity Chang. Their two families had been friends for three generations. When Nee became a Christian, Charity ridiculed Jesus in Nee's presence. This bothered him. Eventually, after much struggling, Nee felt he needed to give up on their relationship. Ten years later, after finishing her university education, Charity became a Christian. She began attending church meetings in Shanghai in 1934. In the same year, during Nee's fourth Overcomer Conference in Hangzhou, the two were married. Charity cared for Nee in his frequent illness and was the only visitor Nee was permitted during his imprisonment. They had no children.

      Ministry

      In 1936, before a group of fellow workers, Watchman Nee outlined the commission of his ministry:

      From the time I was bedridden by illness until the time I was healed by God, I was being shown more clearly the kind of work God wanted me

      Literary Work: After my illness, God made it known to me that the primary purpose of His imparting messages to me was not for explaining the Scripture, nor for preaching the ordinary Gospel, nor for prophesying, but for laying stress on the living word of life... All that I have written has one aim, which is that the reader will, in the new creation, give himself wholly to God and become a useful person in His hands. Now I whole-heartedly commit my writings, my readers and myself to God, who preserves men for ever, and hope that His Spirit will guide me into all His truths.

      Meetings for the Overcomer: God opened my eyes to the necessity of raising up in churches at various places, a number of people who are victorious to be His witnesses... Therefore once every year a meeting for the victorious was held in which I faithfully proclaimed the messages which God has revealed to me.

      Building up Local Churches: When the Lord called me to serve Him, the prime object was not for me to hold revival meetings so that people may hear more Scriptural doctrines nor for me to become a great evangelist. The Lord revealed to me that He wanted to build up local churches in other localities to manifest Himself, to bear testimony of unity on the ground of local churches so that each saint may perform his duty in the Church and live the Church life. God wants not merely individual pursuit of victory or spirituality but a corporate, glorious Church presented to Himself.

      Youth Training: If the return of the Lord be delayed, it will be necessary to raise up a number of youths to continue the testimony and work for the next generation... My idea is not to establish a seminary or a Bible institute but to have the young people live a corporate life and practice spiritual life, that is, receive training for the purpose of edification and to learn to read the Scripture and to pray in order to build up good character. On the negative side, to learn how to deal with sin, the world, the flesh, natural life, and so on. At a suitable time they are to return to their respective churches to be tempered together with other saints to serve the Lord in the Church...

      In the future my personal burden and work will generally comprise these four aspects. May all the glory be to the Lord.

      — Watchman Nee, Watchman Nee's Testimony

      Nee began to write and publish at a very early age. In 1923, he began to publish the magazine The Present Testimony, and in 1925, he started another magazine entitled The Christian. It was also in 1925 when Nee changed his name from Ni Shu-tsu to Ni To-sheng (English translation: Watchman Nee). At age 21, Nee established the first local church in Sitiawan, Malaysia while visiting his mother, who had moved there from China. In 1926, Nee established up another local church in Shanghai, which became the center of his work in China. By 1932, Nee's practice of meeting as local churches spread throughout China, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore. He maintained this pattern until his imprisonment

      In 1928, Nee published a three-volume book entitled The Spiritual Man. In February of the same year, Nee held his first Overcomer Conference in Shanghai. In January 1934, Nee called a special conference on the subjects of Christ as the Centrality and Universality of God and The Overcomers. According to Nee, this was a turning point for him in his ministry. He said, My Christian life took a big turn from doctrines and knowledge to a living person, Christ, who is God's centrality and universality.

      In February 1934, Nee gave a series of talks in which he defined and expounded the practice of the local churches, stating that in the Bible, the church is never divided into regions and never denominated based on a teaching or doctrine. These talks were eventually published in the book The Assembly Life. In May of the same year, Nee encouraged Witness Lee to move to Shanghai from Yantai in order to join him and Ruth Lee in their work editing Nee's publications.

      In 1938, Nee traveled to Europe and gave messages that were later published as The Normal Christian Life. Upon his return, Nee gave a conference on the Body of Christ. According to Nee, this was the second turn in his ministry. Nee recounted, My first turn was to know Christ, and my second turn was to know His Body. To know Christ is only half of what the believers need. The believers also must know the Body of Christ. Christ is the head, and He is also the Body.

      In 1939, Nee became involved with his second brother's failing pharmaceutical company. Although acquiescing to family pressure, Nee also saw this as an opportunity to support his many co-workers who were suffering great poverty and hardship during the Second World War. Nee took over full management of the factory, reorganized it, and began to employ many local church members from Shanghai. At this time, some of the elders from the church in Shanghai questioned Nee's involvement in business, causing Nee to suspend his ministry in 1942. Shortly afterward, the church in Shanghai stopped meeting altogether.

      On March 6, 1945, Nee moved to Chongqing to oversee the factory there. There, he delivered a series of messages on Revelation 2 and 3 published as The Orthodoxy of the Church as well as messages on the Song of Songs. On September 9, 1945, the Japanese army surrendered in China, ending the Second Sino-Japanese War In 1946, Peace Wang and Witness Lee began to work to restore the church in Shanghai as well as Nee's public ministry there. Nee purchased twelve bungalows at Kuliang to hold trainings for his co-workers in the Christian work. By April 1948, a revival was brought to the church in Shanghai, and Nee resumed his ministry there. When he returned, Nee handed his pharmaceutical factory over to the Christian work as an offering to God, influencing many others to hand over their possessions to the work. Within a short time, the church in Shanghai grew to over 1000 members.

      Persecution and imprisonment

      The rise of the Chinese Communist Party in 1949, with its doctrine of state atheism, caused Christians to come under great persecution. False charges and arrests were also brought against many foreign missionaries. Through intensive propaganda campaigns and threats of imprisonment, believers were influenced to accuse one another.

      On April 10, 1952, Watchman Nee was arrested in Shanghai by Public Security officers from Manzhouli, Manchuria and charged with bribery, theft of state property, tax evasion, cheating on government contracts, and stealing of government economic information. Nee was also re-educated. On January 11, 1956, there was a nationwide sweep targeting the co-workers and elders in the local churches. Some died in labor camps, while others faced long prison sentences. On January 18, 1956, the Religious Affairs Bureau began twelve days of accusation meetings at the church assembly hall on Nanyang Road in Shanghai, in which many accusations were brought against Nee in large accusation meetings On June 21, 1956, Nee appeared before the High Court in Shanghai, where it was announced that he had been excommunicated by the elders in the church in Shanghai and found guilty on all charges. He was sentenced to fifteen years imprisonment with reform by labor. Initially, he was detained at Tilanqiao Prison in Shanghai but was later moved to other locations. Only his wife, Charity, was allowed to visit him.

      On January 29, 1956, Public Security took over the Nanyang Road building, and many of Nee's co-workers were arrested, put into isolation, and forced to repudiate Watchman Nee. Some co-workers joined in the accusation of Watchman Nee while others, such as Peace Wang, Ruth Lee, and Yu Chenghua remained silent and were punished with life imprisonment. Following this, mass accusation meetings were held across the country to condemn the anti-revolutionary sect of Watchman Nee.

      Later imprisonment and death

      One year before Nee's death in 1972, his wife, Charity, died due to an accident and high blood pressure; Nee was not allowed to attend her funeral. Charity's eldest sister then took the responsibility to care for Nee in prison. Nee was scheduled for release in 1967 but was detained in prison until his death on May 30, 1972. There was no announcement of his death nor any funeral. His remains were cremated on June 1, 1972, before his family arrived at the prison.

      Nee's grandniece recounted the time when she went to pick up Nee's ashes:

      In June 1972, we got a notice from the labor farm that my granduncle had passed away. My eldest grandaunt and I rushed to the labor farm. But when we got there, we learned that he had already been cremated. We could only see his ashes... Before his departure, he left a piece of paper under his pillow, which had several lines of big words written in a shaking hand. He wanted to testify to the truth which he had even until his death, with his lifelong experience. That truth is—Christ is the Son of God who died for the redemption of sinners and resurrected after three days. This is the greatest truth in the universe. I die because of my belief in Christ. Watchman Nee. When the officer of the labor farm showed us this paper, I prayed that the Lord would let me quickly remember it by heart... My granduncle had passed away. He was faithful until death. With a crown stained with blood, he went to be with the Lord. Although Nee did not fulfill his last wish, to come out alive to join his wife, the Lord prepared something even better—they were reunited before the Lord.

      Beliefs

      Nee believed in the verbal inspiration of the Bible and that the Bible is God's Word. He also believed that God is in one sense triune, Father, Son, and Spirit, distinctly three, yet fully one, co-existing and co-inhering each other from eternity to eternity. He believed that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, even God Himself, incarnated as a man with both the human life and the divine life, that He died on the cross to accomplish redemption, that he rose bodily from the dead on the third day, that He ascended into heaven and was enthroned, crowned with glory, and made the Lord of all, and that He will return the second time to receive His followers, to save Israel, and to establish His millennial kingdom on the earth. He believed that every person who believes in Jesus Christ will be forgiven by God, washed by His redeeming blood, justified by faith, regenerated by the Holy Spirit, and saved by grace. Such a believer is a child of God and a member of the Body of Christ. He also believed that the destiny of every believer is to be an integral part of the church, which is the Body of Christ and the house of God Nee had a unique blend of Brethren theology, the exchanged life theology of the Keswick conventions and his own east Asian insights into Christian theology. His well-known book, Sit, Walk, Stand focused on the believer's position in Christ, an important feature of the Apostle Paul's theology

      Watchman Nee is often associated with Free Grace theology. Nee held that assurance is not to be placed upon one's sanctification and put a heavy emphasis on eternal rewards. Nee held that the Outer Darkness mentioned in Matthew is a temporal place for saved Christians who do not live in obedience.

      Publications

      In addition to speaking frequently before many audiences, Watchman Nee authored various books, articles, newsletters, and hymns. Most of his books were based on notes taken down by students during his spoken messages. Some books were compiled from messages published previously in his periodicals.

      Watchman Nee's best-known book in English is The Normal Christian Life, is based on talks he delivered in English during a trip to England and Europe in 1938 and 1939. There he expressed theological views on the New Testament book of Romans. The English messages of The Normal Christian Life were first published chapter by chapter in the magazine A Witness and A Testimony beginning in the Nov-Dec issue in 1940. It was later published as a book by Witness and Testimony Publishers in August 1945 and advertised in the Sept/Oct edition of the A Witness and A Testimony magazine

      Author Contributors – Witness Lee – Biography

      Witness Lee (Chinese: 李常受; pinyin: Lǐ Chángshòu; September 5, 1905 – June 9, 1997) was a Chinese Christian preacher and hymnist belonging to the Christian group known as the local churches (or Local Church) in Taiwan and the United States. He was also the founder of Living Stream Ministry. Lee was born in 1905 in the city of Yantai, Shandong, China, to a Southern Baptist family. He became a Christian in 1925 after hearing the preaching of an evangelist named Peace Wang and later joined the Christian work started by Watchman Nee. Like Nee, Lee emphasized what he considered the believers' subjective experience and enjoyment of Christ as life for the building up of the church, not as an organization, but as the Body of Christ.[1][2][3][4]

      Biography Early years

      Witness Lee was born in 1905 in Shandong Province in China. Lee's great-grandfather was a Southern Baptist who brought Lee's mother into Christianity. Lee's mother studied in an American Southern Baptist mission school and was baptized as a teenager at a Southern Baptist church. She sold her inheritance to provide her children with an education in Chinese and English. Lee's father was a farmer who died in 1923.[1][5]

      Lee was brought into contact with his mother's Baptist Church in Yantai where he studied at a Southern Baptist elementary school and later at a mission college operated by American Presbyterians. Although Lee attended Southern Baptist services and Sunday school in his youth, he was never converted nor baptized by them. After her conversion, Lee's second sister began to pray for him and introduced him to a Chinese pastor who encouraged him to attend his Sunday morning services. Inspired by the preaching of Peace Wang, Lee dedicated himself to serve God for the rest of his life in April 1925 at the age of 19.[6]

      Through Watchman Nee's teaching Lee began to believe that denominationalism was unscriptural. In 1927, when elected to the board of the Chinese Independent Church, he declined the position and left the denomination. Lee then began to meet with the Benjamin Newton branch of the Plymouth Brethren where he remained for seven and a half years and was baptized in the sea by a local Brethren leader, Mr. Burnett, in 1930.

      Ministry with Watchman Nee

      Soon after Lee's conversion to Christianity, he began to study various Christian teachers and discovered the writings of Watchman Nee in two periodicals, The Morning Star and The Christian. Lee began to correspond with Nee to seek his guidance for a better understanding of the Bible. In 1932 Nee visited Yantai, and the two met for the first time. During the visit, Lee felt that his relationship with God and his understanding of how to study the Bible were revolutionized.

      During this time, Lee began to feel that God was calling him to quit his job and serve as a full-time minister, which he did in August 1933. Soon afterward, he received a letter from Watchman Nee that read, Brother Witness, as for your future, I feel that you should serve the Lord with your full time. How do you feel? May the Lord lead you. Lee felt this letter strongly confirmed his decision.[7] From that point onward, Lee began to work closely with Nee.

      In 1934, Lee moved his family to Shanghai as editor of Nee's magazine The Christian. The following year, he began to travel throughout China giving messages to Christians and helping to establish local churches; many churches were established in Zhejiang Province as well as in Beijing and Tianjin. He also traveled to the northwestern provinces of Suiyuan, Shanxi, and Shaanxi to preach the gospel and edify Christians there prior to the Japanese invasion in 1937.

      With the war beginning, Lee returned to Yantai caring for churches in Yantai and Qingdao. At the end of 1942 a revival broke out in Yantai, and the church met continuously for one hundred days. Under suspicion of espionage due to his experimentation with evangelism by migration, Lee was arrested by the Imperial Japanese Army in May 1943 and underwent a month's interrogation through flogging and water torture. His health was greatly weakened by this imprisonment and he developed tuberculosis. In order to rest and recuperate, he moved to Qingdao in 1944 for two years.[8] Following the end of the war, brought great uncertainty for Nee's ministry. In 1949, Nee and his co-workers sent Witness Lee to Taiwan in order to continue Nee's work free from the threat of government persecution under Chinese communism.

      Watchman Nee and Witness Lee met for the last time in Hong Kong in 1950.[8][11] For over a month they spoke together and helped bring about a revival in the church in Hong Kong. Nee charged Lee to instruct, teach, and lead the elders and to make arrangements concerning the church services, as well as the purchase of land for the building of a new meeting place. Nee then returned to mainland China where, in 1952, he was imprisoned for the remaining twenty years of his life by the CCP. The two were never able to communicate again.

      Ministry in Taiwan

      When Witness Lee moved to Taiwan in May 1949 he began his work with a few believers and churches already present there. Within five to six years, the number of Christians under his leadership increased from five hundred to over fifty thousand. Lee began to conduct conferences and trainings for the churches on a yearly basis and beginning in 1951 a formal training for his ministry co-workers. Lee also began to publish books through his publishing company, The Taiwan Gospel Book Room, as well as The Ministry of the Word magazine published from 1950 until 1986 in 415 issues.[1]

      Going west

      Lee's work in the West was initiated with invitations to conduct conferences in London, England and Copenhagen, Denmark in 1958. Between 1958 and 1961, he also visited the United States three times. In 1962 he moved to Los Angeles and held his first conference there. Messages from that conference were later published as a book entitled The All-Inclusive Christ. In the ensuing years, Lee was invited to speak to Christian groups throughout the United States.[13] His messages delivered during shorter conferences and longer trainings were printed in The Stream magazine, published by The Stream Publishers (later renamed Living Stream Ministry).

      Throughout the 1960s and 1970s Lee traveled extensively throughout the United States, Canada, and the Far East, and elsewhere. In 1974 he moved to Anaheim, California where he began a book-by-book exposition of the Bible with the Life-study of Genesis. His entire Life-study of the Bible was completed in December 1994. Lee also wrote extensive outlines, footnotes, and cross references for the entire New Testament; these were eventually incorporated into a new translation of the New Testament, the Recovery Version, published in English in 1985.[14] A translation into Chinese appeared in 1987, with various other languages following it since Lee's death.

      God-Ordained Way

      Beginning in the mid-1980s, Witness Lee felt that the rate of growth was too slow in the local churches. Eventually, he returned to Taiwan and determined that there was a need for a shift away from large meetings with one speaker to small group meetings in homes. In his ministry he began to refer to this emphasis as the God-ordained way. Lee believed that by practicing the God-ordained way, churches could be saved from oldness and degradation and be brought back to a biblical pattern. The God-ordained way consists of four major steps:

      The first step of the God-ordained way is to fulfill the New Testament priesthood of the gospel to seek, visit, and contact sinners for God's salvation to make the sinners organic members of the Body of Christ and offer them to God as the New Testament sacrifice (Rom. 15:16; 1 Pet. 2:5, 9). The second step is to nourish and cherish the newborn babes in Christ in home meetings as nursing mothers (1 Thes. 2:7). The third step is to perfect the saints by mutual teaching in group meetings for the work of the ministry to build up the organic Body of Christ (Eph. 4:12-13). Finally, the fourth step of the God-ordained way is the prophesying by all the saints in the church meetings for the direct and organic building up of the Body of Christ as the organism of the processed Triune God (1 Cor. 14:1–5, 23–26, 31, 39a).

      — Witness Lee, Fellowship Concerning the Urgent Need of the Vital Groups

      Later ministry

      In February 1994 Lee began to deliver messages on subjects he referred to as the high peak of the divine revelation. The focus of his messages was God’s economy to make the believers God in life and nature but not in the Godhead. He also spoke on topics like the New Jerusalem, the complete salvation of God with its judicial and organic aspects, the full ministry of Christ in His three divine and mystical stages, and the incorporation of the believers with the consummated Triune God. He also began a series of Bible expositions known as Crystallization-studies. He continued to encourage the practice of the God-ordained way.

      Witness Lee gave his last conference in February 1997. Three months later he was hospitalized with complications due to prostate cancer. He died on June 9, 1997.

      Witness Lee's view of Christendom

      Witness Lee was critical of Christendom as a system while stressing the need to accept all believers based on what he taught was the common faith (Tit. 1:4, Jude 3).

      This degraded religious system [of Christendom] takes the natural, human, traditional, cultural, and religious way. Humanly speaking, religion is a good thing, but spiritually speaking it is something against God's economy. God does not want a religion, but He surely wants to see His economy accomplished. We are not here for religion but for God's economy, which is to propagate His completed Christ to produce the church as the Body of such a Christ.

      — Witness Lee, The God-ordained Way to Practice the New Testament Economy

      The church includes all those who share the common faith that saves us, the one faith spoken of in Ephesians 4:5. This faith is held in common by all who are saved (2 Pet. 1:1). This faith causes the believers to be one and does not divide them. Any creed or system of teaching that goes beyond the common faith divides the believers.

      — Witness Lee, Crucial Truths in the Holy Scriptures, Vol. 6

      Witness Lee taught that certain practices in Christendom were unscriptural, such as the use of denominating names and the clergy-laity system. Nevertheless, he often emphasized the need for oneness among all Christians.

      Greater Exploits – 16

      True Story – Ambassador Monday O. Ogbe : My Encounter with The Lord Jesus Christ in London Saturday, 5am, 22nd of April 2006

      I was born into a Christian family, have been a Christian, busy going to church, attending activities and serving as best I could until this encounter that turned my life around. On the 16th of March 2006, I was pacing up and down the hospital hallway in London as my wife had already been in labor for three days. The doctors finally concluded that if she did not have the baby naturally by morning, she would have to undergo a caesarean section. Unknown to us, my mother in law had already seen in a vision that she might not make it through this delivery. Thank God for godly mothers-in-law. Of course, my wife and I did not know about this.

      It was during this pacing up and down that I received a strong impression upon my mind to initiate a forty (40) day fast beginning the next day, which was the 17th of March 2006. I was alarmed because I had never carried out a forty-day fast before. This is how you distinguish the fleshy thoughts and thoughts impressed upon you from our heart to our mind by the Holy Spirit in us. He will tell you to do something scriptural that you will not naturally succumb to. I began a conversation with the spontaneous thought lighting upon my mind, thought in response to thought impressions, I then made a requisite to know what I would be praying about for forty days.

      Next instruct was that I should pick a jotter and a pen and I began to write right there in the hospital ward the impressions I was receiving. Rather than pray for my wife, I found out the prayer points coming to my mind were on pastors, the churches, unity in the body and all. It was then I asked God, if I were to carry out this task, I would want to see Him before this 40 days fasting ends. There was no response I believe now because the condition for Him manifesting was going to depend on my obedience to the first instruction to fast 40 days.

      A point to note here before I continue the story is that God will not take the next move beyond your last point of obedience. If He instructs you to do something, you don't do it, He shuts down until you get back to the last point of disobedience and obey. Read Jonah's account. Jonah ran in the opposite direction to God's assignment. Through the storms, as long as Jonah was in disobedience, God never spoke, until Jonah, after his Futile attempt to commit suicide failed, He cried out to God.

      Jonah 2:1-10

      1 Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from the fish’s belly.

      2 And he said: I cried out to the LORD because of my affliction, And He answered me. Out of the belly of Sheol I cried, And You heard my voice.

      3 For You cast me into the deep, Into the heart of the seas, And the floods surrounded me; All Your billows and Your waves passed over me.

      4 Then I said, ‘I have been cast out of Your sight; Yet I will look again toward Your holy temple.’

      5 The waters surrounded me, even to my soul; The deep closed around me; Weeds were wrapped around my head.

      6 I went down to the moorings of the mountains; The earth with its bars closed behind me forever; Yet You have brought up my life from the pit, O LORD, my God.

      7 "When my soul fainted within me, I remembered the LORD; And my prayer went up to You, Into Your holy temple.

      8 "Those who regard worthless idols Forsake their own Mercy.

      9 But I will sacrifice to You With the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay what I have vowed. Salvation is of the LORD."

      10 So the LORD spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.

      A Word For Someone

      "Listen dear daughter and son of the living, loving God. God is loving and merciful but God also plays hard rock solid football. Do you want to engage Him in a nasty football match?  Don't even contemplate it. You will end up with swollen limb. Even at that, He loves you and continues to love you and me with an everlasting love. You carry His Spirit within You. You were created in His image and likeness.

      You are His pet project, He is zealous for you even when you are deep, deep and deep in sin, He looks at you with pity, exploring, orchestrating circumstances and situation that will lead you back to His loving alms. You are not your own, you have been procured with a price, you are heed in Christ, in God. You are the apple of His eyes, you are royalty, you are a priest unto Him, you are special. He says if you can consider how bright the stars are, you are brighter than the stars of heaven. He says no single hair drops from your head that he does not know. He counts them and knows their number. "

      Luke 12:4-7

      4 "And I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.

      5 But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear Him who, after He has killed, has power to cast into hell; yes, I say to you, fear Him!

      6 "Are not five sparrows sold for two copper coins? And not one of them is forgotten before God.

      7 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.

      Now the encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ continues

      Behold, on the 22nd of April 2006, three days to the end of the forty-day fast at exactly 5 am in the morning, God kept His part of the bargain.  I was half awake when this Being, in human form, with His hands folded behind His back, bent forward slightly, looking at me on the floor, walked gently, one step at a time, not in a hurry, walked towards me into the lounge through the window area. I could make out His form but could not see His face clearly.

      You know the type of dressing Jesus dresses in the middle eastern films that we watch. Immediately He came near me, the area around my feet where He was standing began to vibrate with so much force as if it never existed, more like the area just dematerialized so to speak. As He moved towards my chest, neck and head area, same thing happened and He kept going back and forth. Every area He left recombined again as before and the process continues as before.  There were no words to describe the raw power of that experience; I lost track of time and I became afraid and began to beg that He should end and He should tell me what he wanted me to do for Him while rolling uncontrollably on the floor. That was my encounter with the manifest power of our heavenly Father.

      After that trance experience, I began to see different vision of the body of Christ. On one occasion, in the dream, the Lord Jesus Christ walked in, His body was all disjointed but connected with tiny skin ligaments. Each of the parts was a church ministry. I could make out ministries I was familiar with. The connections between the body parts were not firm. I now understand that the church institutions or ministries as we know them today, are dividing His body, the individual members of His church making up His body because of pride, petty ego and all the lust that the flesh presents. Manifesting as Inter church competition, leadership struggle, diversion of members, running down other ministries, fight going on between church members, leadership stealing and living flamboyant lifestyle that does not reflect the living standard of members and the list goes on. If you are such, depart from iniquity, because our God is a consuming fire and remember the sin of Balaam who for monetary lust, misrepresented God and handed Gods blessed children unto satan through evil counsel to the adversary.

      I now asked the Lord where I was to fit in this lightly connected disjointed body of His. He told me to look for churches that make disciples of men and that I should not be moved by numbers.

      The rest is History. I now realized my confidence in Him was built up after the encounter, I now had a sense of purpose and mission. All the assignment God gave me in subsequent dreams were consistent with this first assignment. There has been no controversy at all. I do sometimes derail, but He lovingly leads me back and sometimes with bruises to show for disobedience. The power and presence of the Holy Spirit has enabled me to accomplish things that I would naturally not be able to in reaching out to specific area of assignment. God fills us with His Holy Spirit to equip us for ministry. Never take on any task for God without the divine enablement and assignment.

      This revelation gave me the confidence and assurance that God is available and more than desirous to engage us in conversation, if we are will to tune in to His frequency and ask from Him in faith. He speaks through trance (open visions) as in this case, through dreams, through image impressions, spontaneous thought that lights upon our minds, through circumstances we face, people we meet, ordained men and women of God, through children, through silence and through the word of God. It is critical to note that the inner witness and the word of God has to agree with what we have seen, heard or impressed on our mind. Satan and demonic spirit also speak, impress upon our minds as well. Jesus has alerted us on this in :-

      John 10:27

      27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

      Assignment 1

      Have you had an encounter with your Heavenly Father like the one I just recounted? If you haven't, I encourage you to ask for one. Not for show but that you desire to build a stronger relationship with Him than you have right now. Start at the point you are at. Are you missing the mark, start from there. Remember the prodigal son, the father welcomed him despite the sin. That is the father’s heart. Sometimes, we get into a mess because we do not sense God in our lives. He is waiting, waiting to engage you and me.

      Stop right now and pray asking him to reveal Himself to you, I mean a tangible manifestation. Not some useless encounters that you just forget within days. Every time I recall the above experience, it is as fresh as ever. It is crafted into my DNA forever. Ask Him to reveal Himself to a love one, a wife, a husband, a partner etc and believe it. See what happens. God wants to be believed, he yearns to be believed. Our faith says I believe you and counting on you to do what you want to do.

      Now apart the series of healing, deliverance and restoration I personally experienced, the following several events fueled my anger into this minister -  My mum died at age 44 of high blood pressure – My eldest sister died at 44 of breast cancer and my dad at age 77 of prostate cancer. So, I am angry at satan for stealing from my loved ones and I am hungry to the get the best of God. Not just for myself but for others so they don’t need to loss their parents or sibling at a young age and sy can fulfill their days in sound and perfect health in Jesus name, amen.

      God promised me and you this in:

      Exodus 23:25-27

      Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

      ²⁵You shall serve the Lord your God; He shall bless your bread and water, and I will take sickness from your midst.

      ²⁶None shall lose her young by miscarriage or be barren in your land; I will fulfill the number of your days.

      ²⁷I will send My terror before you and will throw into confusion all the people to whom you shall come, and I will make all your foes turn from you [in flight].

      Together with you, I intend to keep that promise in Jesus name, Amen. In this book "Greater Exploits – You were born for this – Healing, Deliverance and restoration – Find out from the Greats from records of over 100 years of exploits by men and women of God, God used for their time. It is also for us. The book will show you how. We are seeing results already through application of the learnings and so must you. Amen
