In April 1974 Brother Lee began to conduct the life-study of the Bible, releasing messages in weekly ministry meetings and in semiannual trainings. He completed the life-study of the New Testament in December 1984 and the life-study of the Old Testament in July 1995. Based upon His completed life-study of the New Testament, early in 1995 he took an important step in the ministry of the Word—a crystallization-study of certain New Testament books and crucial truths, such as the humanity of Jesus and the complete salvation of God in Romans. According to the charge and the commission that Brother Lee gave to brothers who had been laboring with him for many years to continue the crystallization-studies that he had initiated, these studies have continued in faithfulness to the Lord and to the ministry of the age.

This is the subject of this article. Read more…

But as Peter says, it is always good for our sincere minds to be stirred up again with a reminder (2 Pet. 3:1), and so, we should consider anew our calling “Lord Jesus!” Read more…
The Full-Time Training in Anaheim (FTTA) is the product of a rich history of training in the Lord’s recovery. Beginning in 1936, Watchman Nee realized that, if the return of our Lord Jesus was delayed, it would be necessary to train young brothers and sisters to continue the Lord’s work and stand as the Lord’s testimony for succeeding generations. With this in view, he sought to bring young believers together, not in a seminary or Bible institute but in a training center where they might be equipped and perfected by the Lord in four main areas.
