The Experience of Christ in Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, and Colossians

Book excerpt: The crucial books of Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, and Colossians are short but truly profound. While providing a complete vision of Christ, they also give us the key to knowing and experiencing Christ in a full way. In The Experience of Christ in Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, and Colossians, Witness Lee opens up the central revelation at the heart of the New Testament by considering these books in the order of the believers’ experience: Colossians unveils the all-inclusive Christ who is everything to God and to the believers. Galatians shows that Christ must be very subjective to us, living in us and even being formed in us. Philippians gives us the secret of experiencing and partaking of Christ. Lastly, Ephesians reveals that the issue, the result, of the experience of Christ is the church.
