More About the Author
Watchman Nee became a Christian in mainland China in 1920 at the age of seventeen and began writing in the same year. Throughout the nearly thirty years of his ministry, Watchman Nee was clearly manifested as a unique gift from the Lord to His Body for His move in this age. In 1952 he was imprisoned for his faith; he remained in prison until his death in 1972. His words remain an abundant source of spiritual revelation and supply to Christians throughout the world.

This is an awesome book, because it is all about how Christ is everything we need. His grace is completely sufficient, and our works are irrelevant. We don't need to ask for holiness or goodness or anything, because through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, Christ is everything for us. The focus is on His greatness, not on trying to refurbish us. This book is the antidote to all those shallow, burdensome Christian self-help books!

Watchman Nee's Normal Christian Life talked mainly about the fact of redemption and justification based on the book of Romans (especially Chapter 6, 7, and 8), and a little bit about Christ person. While in this book he went much further to reveal God's complete salvation through Christ - a living person put into Christ's believers to be their redemption, righteousness, life, love, patience, peace, joy, humble, and everything! Only Christ exists in God's eye in the whole university. It is really blessed to see this revelation concerning Christ person as a reality of all, because the whole Bible is a revelation of Jesus Christ (Revelation 1:1). This book can help Christ's believers open a spiritual eye to see this wonderful all-inclusive Christ who is far beyond human imagination.

Nee has written a thought-provoking book that will challenge the reader to consider the sufficiency of Christ in all things.
Nee emphasizes that Christ is our life, truth, and power. Nee also mentions that the Christian is to let go of all self-sufficiency and instead let Christ be our sufficiency.
Another important point Nee mentions is the futility of achieving human unity apart from Calvary - a rebuke to the world's system of doing things.
All in all, an excellent read that will challenge your thinking. Read and be encouraged!

Somewhat mystical
I thoroughly enjoyed the book.Watchman Nee is mostly understandable but some time he gets very mystical and I still am sure of what he is trying to say. Read more

Wrong for me
Watchman Nee's topic and points made are interesting and educational but his views are not shared by me. Would not recommend.

Love this book!
This is a great book! It is very insightful. It's small enough to read again and again. I would definitely recommend it.

Christ the Sum of All Spiritual Things
Nee's works are always profitable. This particular writing is interesting but somewhat esoteric. The words, as always, are plain but how to receive it in one's spirit is difficult.

wonderful
Cant explain into words that Christ is who we need and all will follow. Anything that we think we need or want even as Christians is already in Christ. We just need him. Read more
