Watchman Nee Says

"to preach the gospel is purely a matter of having the outward man broken so that the inward man can flow forth and touch others."

"salvation comes when our spirit touches another's spirit."

"for the outward man to be broken, a full conseration is imparative."

"what we experience daily , at home or school or factory or on the road, is ordered by the holy spirit for our highest benefit."

"until the day comes when all these things are destroyed, you do not know perfect liberity."

"this is the beginning of the drustruction of the outward man; when you are no longer to trust yourself."

"you need not only to be built up; you need also to be destroyed, to be delivered of all the many things in your life that cannot be brought over into eternity."

"what we are, we cannot but help reveal."

"beloved, god's full intention requires that our spirit be released."

"we live not in fleshly wisdom but in god's grace."

"meekness is a sign of brokenness."

"approachable... he confesses his sin readily and sheds tears freely."

"alert to his enviroment... such a one will not be dull to others reactions."

"one who is not broken can hardly be helped."

The words of Watchman Nee...maybe we could make some blessing cookies to sell at the christian bookstore....ha"
