Independent intensities, 0–5 — what the work is made of, not how good it is.
A short book by Watchman Nee, published by Christian Fellowship Publishers in 1970, in five chapters. The first three treat spiritual reality, what it is, its relationships and how to enter it, arguing that every spiritual thing has a reality that is in the Holy Spirit alone. The last two warn against obsession, by which Nee means a counterfeit of spiritual experience, setting out its symptoms, causes and the way of deliverance.
