“O foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was openly portrayed crucified?” (Gal.3:1, Recovery Version). Witness Lee unveils how the cross is the very centre of God’s operation in the universe to carry out His economy, and the remedy for all the Galatian believers' problems.

Gal 2:20 contains a crucial yet mysterious revelation of what it means to live the Christian life. While many perceive it to be an exchanged life, Witness Lee instead shows how the Christian life is a grafted life (Rom. 11:17). Through the organic union with Christ, the human life is mingled with the life of Christ to produce one life and one living. Join us to learn the difference between the old I” and the new “I”.
In Christ we have died to the law and are living in resurrection to God! Did you realize that through being grafted into Christ, His history has now become our history (Gal. 2:19-20)? Our co-crucifixion, burial and resurrection with Christ through our organic union with Him is the focus of today’s programme.
Paul provides a complete revelation of the truth of the gospel in Galatians, not in detail, but in certain basic principles. Today we see how fallen man cannot be justified by works of the law but through faith in Christ, the wonderful organic union issuing from faith, and a precious experiential definition of faith (Gal. 2).

Division is the greatest frustration to the fellowship that all believers have been called into. Witness Lee reveals in this weekly highlight programme how the enjoyment of the all-inclusive Christ and His cross is the unique solution to division and every problem in the church (1 Cor.1:10-13; 2 Cor. 13:14).
On this Life-study of 1 Corinthians programme, we consider how the crucified Christ both God’s power and God’s wisdom. Many consider God’s power primarily in relation to creation or to miracles. Yet today we will see how Christ’s crucifixion solves all the problems in the universe and is God’s unique way to accomplish His purpose.
Christ crucified is God’s power and weakness according to 1 Corinthians 1: 18-25. Witness Lee opens up the meaning of the word of the cross, which was considered foolishness and an offense to both the miracle-seeking Jews and wisdom-pursuing Greeks.
What is the primary problem among believers? The apostle Paul dealt with eleven problems among the believers in Corinth - yet the first problem he dealt with was division. This may be considered as the root of problems among believers (1 Cor. 1:10-17). Join us as we examine this serious issue and consider how Christians may be rescued from division.
Division is the greatest frustration to the fellowship that all believers have been called into. Witness Lee reveals how the enjoyment of the all-inclusive Christ and His cross is the unique solution to division, and to every problem in the church (1 Cor.1:10-13; 2 Cor. 13:14).
What does it mean to be “called into the fellowship of His Son” (1 Cor. 1:9)? The deep and profound significance of fellowship and the problem of division and how to deal with it is unfolded on today’s Life-study programme (1 Cor. 1:10-13).
This weekly highlight programme begins the Life-study of 1 Corinthians. Romans provides a full and complete sketch of both the Christian life and church life, 1 Corinthians gives a clear illustration of these. Witness Lee considers the introduction of this book (1 Cor 1:1-9), and the writer and recipients as a background to help us understand this crucial book.
Witness Lee’s second introductory programme on 1 Corinthians explores further 1 Cor. 1:1-9. Remarkably, despite the Corinthian believers being so fleshly and weak, such ones were qualified to be saints through God’s calling. These ones were called to call upon the name of the Lord. The first mention of the initial gifts in 1:7 and its meaning is also expounded.
Today we begin the Life-study of 1 Corinthians. Romans provides a full and complete sketch of both the Christian life and church life, and 1 Corinthians gives a clear illustration of these two matters. Witness Lee considers the introduction of this book (1 Cor 1:1-9), and the writer and recipients as a background to help us understand this crucial book.
Join us as we conclude the Life-study of Romans and review its central message. The key to the Christian life is not “how to” teachings or methods but the practical realization of the Spirit with our spirit and remaining in this mingled spirit. We will also explore the wonderful aspects of the work of the Spirit within His believers. (Rom. 8:4-16, 23, 26-27).
