Resources

Our Faith, Testimony, and History introduces readers to the local churches and to the ministry of Watchman Nee and Witness Lee. As Christians, we affirm “the faith once for all delivered to the saints” (Jude 3). As this booklet explains, we endeavor to cooperate with the Lord to recover the experience of Christ as life, the functioning of every believer in serving the Lord, and the building up of the Body of Christ in a testimony of oneness.
The resources pages listed below elaborate on the points presented in the sections on “Our Faith” and “The Lord’s Recovery—The Life, Function, and Practical Oneness of the Believers” in the open letter and in Our Faith, Testimony, and History. They bring out some of the particularly rich aspects of the ministry of Watchman Nee and Witness Lee as well as the significance of these truths to the believers’ experience.

Our Faith

The Lord’s Recovery

The resources on these pages come from four sources:

  • Books published by Living Stream Ministry (LSM) available electronically at ministrybooks.org. These may also be purchased from livingstreambooks.com. LSM is the publisher of Watchman Nee and Witness Lee.
  • The journal Affirmation & Critique (A&C), available at affcrit.com. A&C presents explanations of important scriptural truths. The articles in A&C are intended to appeal to serious minded Christians, including seminary students and theologians.
  • Recordings of the Life-study of the Bible radio broadcasts from lsmradio.org. These programs cover all sixty-six books of the Bible and include excerpts from Witness Lee’s speaking interspersed with discussion by his co-workers.
  • Polemic writings on points of truths. Whereas the other resources on this site generally present purely positive affirmations of scriptural truths, the articles in this category generally take criticisms or deviations from those truths as starting points. Many of these are from the Web site contendingforthefaith.org, a site operated by the Defense & Confirmation Project (DCP).
