This book is composed of messages given by Brother Witness Lee in a training conducted in Taipei, Taiwan, in 1953 and 1954.
Although we know that God’s desire and intention is to gain a corporate man, having His image, manifesting His glory, and possessing His authority to deal with His enemy so that He Himself may gain eternal rest, very few know that this great desire and intention of God can be attained only through His own life. Even fewer have touched this matter of knowing and experiencing this life that accomplishes the purpose of God. Therefore, the saints today are rather weak and immature. Although there are many seeking ones, very few have found the way of life. Many people have even mistaken zeal, knowledge, power, and gifts, etc., for life.
We thank God that in these last days of urgent need God has made manifest through our brother’s messages the line of His wonderful and hidden life and has thus made it possible for every believer to see and touch this matter. These messages may be considered a crystallization of the cream of the saints’ knowledge and experience of life in the past two thousand years, plus our brother’s thirty years of personal experience; they are indeed complete and superb. The contents of these messages are divided into two main parts. The first part discusses the knowledge of life and is divided into fourteen main points, which show the characteristics of life and its various principles of working. The second part, which was previously published in a book entitled The Experience of Life, discusses the experiences of life and is divided into nineteen items that explain the experiences in the various stages of the spiritual life and the way of pursuing life. If we pursue and practice these lessons one by one, we will be enabled to rise in a straight line and rapidly attain to the stage of the maturity of life.
Therefore, these messages have made practical the almost invisible and untouchable science of life. All those saints who love the Lord and are pursuing the growth of life need to read these messages.

We will use fourteen chapters that cover fourteen main points in order to see from every side what life is and some matters relating to life. In this book we build a foundation on the knowledge of life. We cover the matter concerning the experience of life in The Experience of Life.

Common words, such as "and", "is", "but", and "the", also known as noise words, are bypassed in a search. The search string, the Spirit & who, would result in an error since who, which stands by itself, is a noise word. The following is a list of noise words:

There is no need to use ^ (inflectional search) or * (prefix search) when using the Include all word forms search scope.
This option searches for exact matches of the specified words or phrases used in the search string. Use of ^ (inflectional search) with a particular word in the search string will broaden the search for that given word in that all conjugations and declensions for that word will be searched. Similarly, use of * (prefix search) with a particular word in the search string will broaden the search for that given word in that all words with that prefix will be searched as well.
