About the Author:
Witness Lee (1905–1997) was a Chinese Christian preacher and author who worked closely with Watchman Nee for two decades. After moving to Taiwan and later the United States, he became the leading figure in the "Local Church" movement (also known as "The Lord's Recovery") and founded Living Stream Ministry.
Relationship with Watchman Nee
* Co-Laborers: Lee joined Watchman Nee's ministry in the early 1930s. He eventually took over the responsibility for Nee's publishing work, the Shanghai Gospel Bookroom.
* The Commission: In 1949, as the Communist Party took control of China, Nee commissioned Lee to move to Taiwan to ensure their teachings and ministry would be preserved outside of mainland China.
Key Teachings and Practices
Witness Lee’s ministry emphasized "the experience of Christ as life" and the "practical oneness" of believers. Distinctive practices associated with his leadership include:
* "Calling on the Name of the Lord": Vocally calling out to the Lord (e.g., "O Lord Jesus") to deepen spiritual communion.
* "Pray-Reading": A practice of reading Scripture aloud while interspersing short prayers to internalize the text.
* The Local Church Model: The belief that there should be only one church in each city (e.g., "The church in Los Angeles"), avoiding denominational labels.
* God's Economy: A focus on God's plan to dispense Himself into humanity to produce the "Body of Christ"
Major Written Works
Lee was a prolific writer with over 400 titles attributed to him. His most significant contributions include:
* The Life-Study of the Bible: A 25,000-page, book-by-book commentary focusing on the enjoyment of divine life.
* The Recovery Version of the Bible: A new translation of the New Testament (and later the Old Testament) featuring extensive outlines and footnotes.
* The All-Inclusive Christ: Based on his first major conference in the United States in 1962.
Historical Context and Legacy
After moving to the U.S. in 1962 and settling in Southern California, Lee's ministry grew rapidly but also faced theological scrutiny. Critics sometimes questioned his views on the nature of the Trinity and the church, leading to significant dialogues and some legal disputes regarding how his teachings were represented. Today, the "Local Churches" he helped establish exist globally.
