■ PREFACE:
The ministry of Watchman Nee had been known in English only from transcriptions of his spoken messages in tracts and magazine articles when, in 1957, The Normal Christian Life was first published in Bombay and was at once accorded a widespread welcome. Compiled from such records and from private notebooks, this collection was edited in the author's absence, and is based upon addresses originally given by Mr. Nee during and shortly after a visit to Europe in 1938-39.
From the day in 1920 when, as a college student, he found the Lord Jesus Christ as his Savior during the visit of a Chinese evangelist to his native city of Foochow, Nee To-sheng gave himself without reserve to God for work among his own people. Over the years he became widely known in China as a gifted preacher of the Gospel and an original expositor of the Word, whose ministry bore remarkable fruit in individuals and in many groups of spiritually virile Christians. This book sets forth something of his personal understanding of the Christian life towards the end of those first years of unrestricted service for his Lord.
In the twenty years that have followed, the Church of God in China has passed through recurring periods of the severest testing with but brief interludes of respite, and the author, together with many of those associated with him in work and witness, has had his full share of these experiences right up to the present. It is perhaps not surprising therefore that his ministry should come to us today with freshness and power. Many have already testified to the transformation this book has wrought in their lives through new discoveries of the greatness of Christ and of his finished work on the cross.
The demand now for a new edition has made possible a further careful revision of the text. Readers are again reminded that this is a compilation of spoken addresses and not, despite superficial appearances, a systematic treatise of Christian doctrine. It is to be approached not as an intellectual exercise but as a message to the heart. Read thus it will, I believe, speak as from the Spirit of God himself, with challenging power.
