Messages by Watchman Nee on spiritual knowledge, published by Christian Fellowship Publishers in 1973. He distinguishes mental from spiritual knowledge, shows the ways to the knowledge of God (being dealt with by God and dealing with God; knowing God in prayer and in his will) and of oneself (the way to self-knowledge and the source of light), and explains the relationship of spiritual knowledge to the renewed mind.
