The Normal Christian Life by Nee
If there was a single book besides the Bible, I think that this is one of the best to have. I started rereading it again this last week, tremendous insight and truths. I would to God that every believer that I contact would read it and practice it's truth.

I enjoy Watchmen Nee!
Not light reading mind you, but good!

Just about anything he put out is edifying.

Re: The Normal Christian Life by Nee
I've been wanting to read Nee, but haven't yet although I do have one of his books. Can't remember which one though.

I liked The Release of the Spirit.

Re: The Normal Christian Life by Nee
Many years ago I read a book by Watchman Nee about the dividing of soul and spirit. It was VERY deep and I had to be alone in a quiet place so I could understand what I was reading. I remember him saying that most christians were soulical and not so much spiritual.

You do have to draw yourself away!
Deep reading indeed.

Re: The Normal Christian Life by Nee
That is indeed one of the best books out there. Same with THE SPIRITUAL MAN. Classic.

Re: The Normal Christian Life by Nee
I read several of his books years ago and enjoyed them. I read Spiritual Man and the Release of the Spirit - I think- I remember they were not long books but packed with very insightful writings.

I don't agree.
