Turning to the Age of the Spirit

by Witness Lee

Overview

"Today the Lord intends to turn the age; He desires to turn to the age of the Spirit. I have a deep conviction that the Lord's way hereafter is altogether in the Spirit."

We may love and fear the Lord, desire a godly living that pleases Him, and want to live according to the teaching of the Bible, being well-behaved in all things. Such a living is similar to the teachings of Confucius, but it is far from the central point revealed in the Scriptures. The central point of the Bible shows that the Lord is the life-giving Spirit. He is leading us to turn from things outside of the Spirit to the Spirit Himself, from rituals to the Spirit, from knowledge to the Spirit, and from the letter of the Bible to the Spirit. He has enlivened and regenerated our human spirit, and now He dwells in us to be our life and everything. This is the central point of the Bible that the Lord wants to recover today.

About the Author

Born in 1905 in northern China, Witness Lee was raised in a Christian family and educated in English-speaking schools. At the age of 19 he believed in the Lord Jesus Christ and consecrated himself to preach the gospel. Early in his service, Witness Lee met Watchman Nee and began to labor together with him. In 1949 Witness Lee was sent by Watchman Nee to Taiwan to ensure that the things delivered to them by the Lord would be preserved. In 1962 Witness Lee came to the United States and began to minister here. He ministered in weekly conferences, delivering several thousand spoken messages until 1997. He gave his last public conference in February 1997 at the age of 91. His major work, Life-Study of the Bible, comprises over 25,000 pages of commentary on every book of the Bible from the perspective of the believers' enjoyment and experience of God's divine life in Christ through the Spirit.
