... "That though the saints at Corinth grew in these outward endowments [( speech, knowledge, spiritual gift )] they failed to grow in their spirit. Their intuition [(spiritual sense)] did not wax stronger. Increase in preaching eloquence, Bible knowledge, and spiritual gift is not reckoned as increase of spiritual life!"
"If the believer's spirit - that which is capable of communicating with God - does not grow stronger and keener, God judges that he has not grown at all!" "No matter how much our mind, emotion and will may gain by speech, knowledge and gift, it is all deemed by God as vain if our spirit is not developing." - - Watchman Nee, in The Spiritual Man , Vol. 2 Comments are closed.
