Watchman NeeWatchman Nee The book of Acts is the best aid in approaching our work. We do not find there anyone consecrating himself as a preacher nor anyone deciding to do the Lord’s work by making himself a missionary or a pastor.

Watchman NeeWatchman Nee There is a line drawn by God, a boundary where by virtue of his own very presence Satan’s writ does not run. Let God but occupy all the space himself, and what room is left for the evil one?
Watchman NeeWatchman Nee The ‘flesh’ is too bad to be cleansed; it must be crucified.
Watchman NeeWatchman Nee The Christian faith begins not with a big DO but with a big DONE.
Watchman NeeWatchman Nee I consecrate myself to God to do His will where I am, be it in school, office, or kitchen, or wherever He may, in His wisdom, send me.
Watchman NeeWatchman Nee The devil abhors light and truth because these remove the ground of his working.
