The idea of waste only comes into our Christianity when we underestimate the worth of our Lord.
Watchman Nee
Image
The 'flesh' is too bad to be cleansed it must be crucified.
Watchman Nee
Image
In order for the inner man to be strengthened with power through the Holy Spirit, the children of God must discharge their responsibility. They need to yield specifically to the Lord, forsake every doubtful aspect in their life, be willing to obey fully God's will, and believe through prayer that He will flood their spirit with His power.
Watchman Nee
Image
The greatest negative in the universe is the Cross, for with it God wiped out everything that was not of Himself: the greatest positive in the universe is the resurrection, for through it God brought into being all.
Watchman Nee

Watchman Nee
Image
Outside Christ, I am empty in Christ, I am full.
Watchman Nee
Image
The devil abhors light and truth because these remove the ground of his working.
Watchman Nee
Image
A spiritual Christian should welcome any burden which the Lord brings his way.
Watchman Nee
Image
If the mind is open the individual will soon perceive the preciousness of a truth which initially appeared rather dull to him but now is illumined by the spirit's light.
Watchman Nee
Image
The Christian faith begins not with a big DO but with a big DONE.
Watchman Nee
Image
It is highly dangerous to receive the truths of the Bible with human wisdom, for this is a hidden and subtle method which invariably causes a believer to perfect with his flesh the work of the Holy Spirit.
Watchman Nee
Image
An unpeaceful mind cannot operate normally.
Watchman Nee
Image
On at least four separate occasions and recorded in the four Gospels the Lord Jesus called His disciples to deny their soul life, deliver it to death, and then to follow Him.
Watchman Nee
Image
To secure one's freedom the Christian must experience God's light which is God's truth.
