Find out how to do so on our page: Plan of Salvation _______________ Tell others about Jesus like Watchman Nee did: Though we are not all called to the ministry of Christian Teacher and Writer, we are all called by God to share our faith (witness) with those who are not Christians. Some Bible verses that you will find helpful for doing this, and that you may want to commit to memory are found on other pages on our web site (see: Memory Verses; 2nd Set: Salvation!, Plan of Salvation, and Statement of Faith). _________________

By Bob Laurent "He lived the life he wrote about, a life devoted to Christ." The titles of Watchman Nee's books say much about this twentieth century Chinese spiritual leader---Changed Into His Likeness, Love Not the World, A Living Sacrifice, and Spiritual Man. Writer, teacher, and church founder, Nee spent his entire adult life focused on the truth of the Gospel, and almost one-third of his life imprisoned for his belief. Opposed by traditional denominations for his work in creating indigenous churches in China, Nee also encountered false accusations from the Chinese government, extreme poverty, and the ravages of disease. Yet from the seeds he planted grew larger churches that continued to thrive despite Communist persecution. "O Lord! How can we forget Your grace?" Watchman Nee wrote in 1927. "Instead of resting and getting rusty, why not labor and trust? The strength of promise in time of need is never decreased." ______________________________ © 1998 by Barbour Publishing, Inc.
