The Ministry, Vol. 04, No. 04
The Way to Bear Fruit (5) & Crystallization-Study of Revelation (1c)
Description:... In this issue of The Ministry, Brother Lee once again reminds us that all the believers are fruit-bearing branches in the vine and grains of wheat falling into the ground to bring forth more grains. This is our burden, our obligation, and the commission that the Lord has given us. We need to change the concept that we have from our background by tradition and not wait for big speakers or gospel campaigns. Rather, we must go out to contact people once a week. For this purpose, we must learn the truths concerning God, Christ, the Spirit, sin, repentance and faith, calling on the Lord, and the assurance of salvation. Then we must learn how to present these truths to unbelievers as the seed of life for their salvation. The next three messages are a continuation of the Crystallization-study of Revelation, given in the summer training of 1999. Message Seven shows us the Lord’s need of the overcomers and how the fulfillment of God’s eternal purpose, Christ’s satisfaction, and the defeat of God’s enemy all hinge on the overcomers. Message Eight strongly charges us that if we are to enter into the Lord’s joy and receive the Lord as our exceeding great reward in the next age, we need to win Him and faithfully enjoy Him today in this age. If we do not faithfully enjoy and experience Christ as the reality of His promises today, we will not participate in their fulfillment in the kingdom age; the principle is that what we are will become our reward. Message Nine presents the main subject of the book of Revelation, which is Christ as the center of God’s administration according to God’s eternal economy. We not only need to see that God has a governmental administration, but we also must learn to live in a practical daily way directly under the rule of God and under the administration of His throne. Last of all, we include reports concerning the Lord’s move in Mexico and in Sri Lanka.
