Life Study of the Bible

Life-study of the Bible is a 30-minute radio broadcast composed of excerpts from Witness Lee’s spoken ministry that focuses on the enjoyment of the divine life as revealed in the Scriptures. The ministry portions are followed by a discussion of the portion presented, including questions and answers. The ministry of Watchman Nee has been nourishing and edifying seeking believers throughout the earth for over 70 years.

Weekdays from 8pm

The Freedom of the Spirit in Our Spirit (1)

3 Sep 2024
00:26:40

Join us to explore Romans 7:25 – 8:2 on today’s Life-study of the Bible programme. The apostle Paul discovered that there was a battle raging within him as a result of the three lives and three laws indwelling him. We will see how Paul could be freed and sanctified from the bondage of the law in his flesh by experiencing the law of the Spirit of life in his spirit.

The Bondage of the Law in Our Flesh (2)

2 Sep 2024
00:26:44

If you have ever struggled with wanting to do the right thing but failing and feeling condemned - then you are experiencing what Paul spoke of in Romans 7! Witness Lee opens up one of the most perplexing aspects of the Christian life, and how we can find deliverance. We also consider the three laws that are presented in Rom. 7:7-25.

The Gift in Christ Surpassing the Heritage in Adam

1 Sep 2024
00:26:44

This week’s highlight programme is taken from Wednesday’s programme. After sections on condemnation and justification, today we begin a new section on sanctification in Romans. What hints does Paul give that there is much more to the Christian life then just outward positional justification and redemption? This programme explores this, before focusing on the gift in Christ which surpasses the heritage received from Adam in Rom. 5:12-21.

The Bondage of the Law in Our Flesh (1)

30 Aug 2024
00:26:43

To have a genuine experience of identification with Christ requires that we deal with two negative items – the law and the flesh. Witness Lee explains the bondage of the law in our flesh in Romans 7, the identity of the two husbands mentioned in verses 1-6, and their practical application to our Christian life.

Identification with Christ

29 Aug 2024
00:26:48

On today’s Life-study of Romans, Witness Lee graphically contrasts the eternal accounting ledger facing mankind – what are the “debits” inherited in Adam, and what are the “credits” received in Christ? We then explore the significance of baptism in Rom. 6:3-5, through which we are transferred into Christ and identified with Him in His death and resurrection.

The Result of Justification—the Full Enjoyment of God in Christ

27 Aug 2024
00:26:44

What is the result of our being justified by God? Much more then then simply being accepted by God, we see a much more far-reaching view presented in Rom. 5:1-11. Paul’s conclusion on the teaching of justification specifically details six wonderful items and three wonderful Persons that are deeply precious for our experience.

The Subjective Experience of Justification (2)

26 Aug 2024
00:26:21

Witness Lee continues to open up the subjective experience of justification in the second programme on this crucial topic (Rom. 4:1-25). Abraham experienced the God of glory appearing and transfusing faith into him – but how does God appear to us today? We will also see how Abraham’s experience of offering up Isaac reveals the real purpose of God’s justification.

The Example of Justification

25 Aug 2024
00:26:46

This week’s highlight programme is taken from Thursday’s programme. The apostle Paul provides not only the doctrine of justification, but in Romans 4 gives a marvellous living example. On this programme we will see how Abraham believed in God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness (Rom. 4:3). In particular, we see Abraham’s faith was in the God who calls things not being as being, and who gives life to the dead (4:17).

The Subjective Experience of Justification (1)

23 Aug 2024
00:26:45

Join us for a potentially life-changing revelation regarding faith on today’s Life-study of Romans! Witness Lee opens up how faith is nothing less than Christ transfusing Himself into us to cause a reaction that enables us to believe. Such a realization can save us from the discouragement of looking within to generate faith. Instead, we can be encouraged to look away to Jesus as the Author and Perfector of our faith (Heb. 12:2).

The New Jerusalem (6)

7 Aug 2024
00:25:52

In this programme we focus on the aspects of the temple and tabernacle as they relate to the New Jerusalem (Rev. 21:3, 22-23). Witness Lee unfolds their significance as both God and man’s eternal dwelling place, and the miniature of this mutual abode in John 15.

The New Jerusalem (5)

6 Aug 2024
00:26:44

The New Jerusalem is the consummation of the divine revelation, but how practical is it to you in your daily life? Today in our fifth programme on the New Jerusalem, we focus on the twelve pearl gates as our entrance into the city and the one golden street as our way to walk the daily Christian life. (Rev. 21:9-21) Join us for an enlightening and applicable word from Witness Lee.

The New Jerusalem (4)

5 Aug 2024
00:25:17

Join us as we consider the jasper appearance of God on the throne, and how the New Jerusalem has the very same appearance (Rev. 4:3, 21:11). This unique program unfolds our need to be transformed by the divine life that we may be built together as His corporate expression.

The New Jerusalem (1)

4 Aug 2024
00:25:04

This week’s highlight programme is taken from Wednesday’s programme. We may have the concept that our eternal destiny is heaven, however God’s word clearly shows that the holy city, New Jerusalem, comes down out of haven from God (Rev. 21:2). Join us for the first of seven remarkable and profound programs on God’s ultimate goal and the consummation of His divine economy - the New Jerusalem.
