The apostle Paul ends his second letter to the Corinthians
with the divine salutation—"The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the
love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit, be with you all"
(13.14). We as Christians come to know the fullness of the Godhead
through the
love, the grace and the communion, which proceed from the triune God. It
is the
love of God the Father that purposes all. It is the grace of God the Son
that
provides all. And it is the communion of God the Spirit that performs
all.
Love, grace and communion are all equally essential. What would love be
without
grace? It would have no expression. What would grace be without
communion? It
would be unattainable. This present volume is a compilation of messages
given
by God’s servant Watchman Nee at various times and places. They all
relate to
the communion of the Holy Spirit. The first part consists of two
messages on
Resurrection, the Holy Spirit, and the Church. A proper perspective on
the
marvelous work of the Holy Spirit is therein given. The second part,
entitled
"The Outpouring of the Holy Spirit," is composed of six messages on
the Outpouring, one message on the Holy Spirit, and the Law, and two
messages
on the Anointing Oil. And the third part presents four messages on
Spiritual
Judgment, which is the fruit of the discipline of the Holy Spirit. Such
discipline gives spiritual discernment for service. May the blessed Lord
who
released these messages to the Church use them for the building up of
the body
of Christ in love.
