"Take heed to thyself and to thy teaching. Continue in these things: for in doing this thou shalt save both thyself and them that hear thee" (1 Timothy 4.16). With this exhortation in mind, this present volume, selected from various messages given by Watchman Nee through the years, deals exclusively with the elementary though nonetheless quite fundamental issues of the Christian life. There are warning and encouragement as well as admonition and discipline. May the blessed Lord use them to guide His children in their heavenly pilgrimage on earth.
