About this listen

Although the language of the Gospel of John is simple, this book is deep and profound. In this life study, Witness Lee shows that the Bible is a book of life and building and that the Gospel of John also is focused on life and building.

The Gospel of John reveals that in Christ, the Word of God is life; that he came that man may have life; and that he himself is life. Furthermore, this gospel shows that Christ is the bread of life; that he has the water of life; that he gives life to man; and that he even lives in man as life.

The Gospel of John also unfolds the divine building. In 1:14, we see that Christ in the flesh was the tabernacle for God’s habitation among men on earth. In 2:19-21, Christ’s human body was also the temple of God on earth. Through his death, his body in the flesh was destroyed, and in his resurrection, he raised up his mystical body, the church, to be the enlarged temple of God.

This is God’s building in the universe. Furthermore, this gospel reveals that the believers are to be built up to be the Father’s house, the dwelling place of the Triune God. This is adequately and fully disclosed in John 14. According to that chapter, all the believers will be built together as God’s eternal habitation with many abodes. Thus, as the Lord’s last prayer in John 17 indicates, all his believers must be built up into one.

The first section of the Gospel of John, composed of the first 13 chapters, is on the coming of the Lord Jesus to bring God into man and to declare God to man. The second section, composed of the last eight chapters, is on the Lord’s going in death and coming back in resurrection to bring man into God and to abide in and with man for God’s building.

The content of this life-study is excellent. Does a good job covering the Word itself while also connecting it to a believer's practical experience. Sometimes the chapters are dense and could be broken up into 2 chapters instead of 1. Overall very good.

bro Lee does a phenomenal job of explaining, in great detail, the intrinsic aspect of The Book of John. bro Lee saw and explained much of what I missed in The Book of John.

He IS everything we need! He abides in us and we abide in Him! Mutual abode! Apart from Him we’re nothing! We have His life so we can live this life in this flesh. His heart’s desire is present throughout for the ultimate consummation, The New Jerusalem! We Praise God for such a revealing gospel!

The gospel of John is my favorite writing. I have read or listened to it over 200 times. I'm not saying this to brag just saying I'm very familiar with the book. I have also listen to or read thru more commentary on John than I can keep track of. Also I'm a mystic ( knowing the oneness of CHRIST as a experiential reality). I have enjoyed the writings of Watchman Nee. Witness takes simple beautiful spiritual truths and act like the are some grand Revelation tortures them with horrible allegory that sound like a fresh in an introduction to philosophy class that think he is a great philosopher. This is the worst torture of commentary I have ever been subjected to. Not even slightly encouraging or interesting , it was painful to get through. Ridiculous and Awful!
