In The Spirit with Our Spirit, Witness Lee presents a deep, enlightening, yet wonderfully practical view of the believers’ experience of God in the New Testament. By presenting a complete, scriptural view of both the divine Spirit and the human spirit, Lee shows that genuine spiritual experience is not a matter of outward behavior or conformity to a set of rules and regulations. Rather, genuine spirituality comes from knowing the Spirit, who is with our human spirit. God’s desire to be received and enjoyed by His people can be realized only to the extent that we learn to walk according to the Spirit in our spirit. The Spirit with Our Spirit is an invaluable guide in this learning process.
Born in 1905 in northern China, Witness Lee was raised in a Christian family and educated in English-speaking schools. At the age of 19 he believed in the Lord Jesus Christ and consecrated himself to preach the gospel. Early in his service, Witness Lee met Watchman Nee and began to labor together with him. In 1949 Witness Lee was sent by Watchman Nee to Taiwan to ensure that the things delivered to them by the Lord would be preserved. In 1962 Witness Lee came to the United States and began to minister here. He ministered in weekly conferences, delivering several thousand spoken messages until 1997. He gave his last public conference in February 1997 at the age of 91. His major work, Life-Study of the Bible, comprises over 25,000 pages of commentary on every book of the Bible from the perspective of the believers' enjoyment and experience of God's divine life in Christ through the Spirit.
