About The Collected Works of Witness Lee
Possessing this set is a unique opportunity to preserve the priceless supply of the ministry with which the Lord has blessed His recovery through the speaking of the Spirit. We encourage the churches around the world to make this heritage available to the saints. The Collected Works of Witness Lee with the comprehensive index will be an invaluable resource for use in personal study, in home meetings, and in the shepherding and care of the saints. In addition, this complete set will provide a lasting legacy of the truth for our children and generations to come. Surely, this ministry is not for us alone, for in receiving it, we have been entrusted with a stewardship. “If indeed you have heard of the stewardship of the grace of God which was given to me for you, that by revelation the mystery was made known to me...by which, in reading it, you can perceive my understanding in the mystery of Christ” (Eph. 3:2-4). “The stewardship of the grace is for the dispensing of the grace of God to His chosen people for the producing and building up of the church. Out of this stewardship comes the ministry” (v. 2, footnote 2). “If you lay these things before the brothers, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, being nourished with the words of the faith and of the good teaching which you have closely followed” (1 Tim. 4:6). “To minister Christ to others requires that first we ourselves be nourished with the words of life concerning Christ” (v. 6, footnote 2).
Set FeaturesThe Collected Works of Witness Lee will contain approximately 136 volumes with over 77,000 pages of ministry. Of this amount only 56 percent has been previously published, leaving approximately 35,000 pages of ministry that will appear for the first time in The Collected Works of Witness Lee, including hymns written by Witness Lee and notes from his personal Bibles. Following the completion of the final volume, an index of the entire set will be prepared and sent to those who purchase a complete set. This index will contain an alphabetical list of every section in the set, a list of referenced verses, and a breakdown of the set content by topics, such as regeneration, baptism, the human spirit, the all-inclusive Spirit, the ground of the church, calling on the name of the Lord, and so forth. The Life-study messages, Conclusion messages, and Truth Lessons will not be included in the set.

Publication Features
Print quantities will be based on new orders and the quantity needed to complete the sets of those who have existing DMS accounts for The Collected Works of Witness Lee. Warehousing of sets for future orders will be quite limited because of the extensive space requirements; consequently, we do not anticipate reprinting these volumes for a number of years.
