Somehow that doesn't surprise me.

The issue this book is about is one of the most important issues a Christian can deal with. It regards victory over the flesh and sin, and coming to a place of truly manifesting Christ in one's life.

I liked how he said (I think it was him in that book - correct me if I'm wrong, Keith) Gal 2:20 is like the gospel to the church. The gospel to the sinner is obvious. But the gospel to those already saved is we are crucified -- not going to be crucified -- and Christ can live through us.

I loved that books so much I put it only my links page on my website.

For those who like that book, you will also enjoy Gene Edwards' THE HIGHEST LIFE and THE SECRET TO THE CHRISTIAN LIFE. Edwards eemeed to have taken the steering wheel from Nee and carried on with that emphasis.

I found Nee's biggest emphasis in most his books was getting self out of the way so Christ, within, can live through.

Big emphasis on the finished work of Calvary but in dealing with our sins and the sin factory our flesh by removing in the sense it was also Crucified with Christ.

I never heard about this book. Sir do you have a web link for The Normal Christian Life by Nee? I love Purpose Driven life by Rick Warren.

I like how he stressed Christ DIED ONCE for sin. And never does the bible say we are crucified more than once when it comes to sin. To self, yes, we carry the cross daily, but not for sin. When it comes to sin, we died once already when Christi died, since it was with Him.

I like how Nee used the slip of paper in the book example. If you put the slip of paper in the book, everywhere the book goes the slip goes. All that happens to the book can be said to happen with the slip of paper. In that sense we were baptized INTO CHRIST, and therefore, were buried, risen and ascended and seated with Him, too!
