A Christian from my youth, I was raised under fundamental Christianity and learned to revere the Bible as God’s holy word.
In Bible school, the Bible became one of my textbooks which I analyzed and studied while investigating doctrines, teachings, and various other topics.
By the Lord’s mercy and grace He brought me to the local church where the Bible has become a book of life to me. Under the ministry of Watchman Nee and Witness Lee the Bible is my nourishing food supply. I also discovered my human spirit, the proper organ to receive the Word into my being. It is no longer merely a history book, or book of teachings and commandments. As John 6:63b says: “The words which I have spoken to you are spirit and are life.” From beginning to end the Bible reveals the Triune God to us as life.
I love the Bible!
