(See other books by Watchman Nee)

Description: This book presents many helpful principles and examples from the holy Scriptures related to the proper exercise of both authority and submission, an exercise that is according to the divine life in the Body of Christ. Christ has been made Head over all things to the Church (Eph. 1:22), and the living excercise of authority and submission within the Body of Christ is central to the working out of God's divine will.
