Book Description
From beginning to end, the Bible speaks of eating the Lord. When God created man, He placed man in front of Himself as the tree of life, and rather than commanding man concerning praise or worship, He commanded man to eat. The Old Testament speaks further concerning the matter of eating in its presentation of the types of the Passover lamb, the offerings in the tabernacle, and the produce of the good land of Canaan. The New Testament also speaks very clearly concerning our eating, especially in its presentation of Christ as the portion of all the believers. In Eating the Lord Witness Lee unveils the great scriptural truth that eating the Lord is simply to enjoy the Lord so that God can impart Himself into man to fulfill His heart's desire. When we believed in the gospel, a great feast was spread before us, and day by day we can keep this feast by cooperating with the Lord's inward operation. In this way Christ will be an abundant portion for our enjoyment and for those with whom we share Him.

"Eugene Peterson maintains that how we read the Bible is as important as that we read it. The second volume of Peterson's momentous five-part work on spiritual theology, Eat This Book challenges us to read the Scriptures on their own terms, as God's revelation, and to live them as we read them. Countering the widespread practice of using the Bible for self-serving purposes, Peterson here serves readers with a nourishing entrée into the formative, life-changing art of spiritual reading." - from the back of the book.

Book Description
Since the days of the early church, Christians have struggled to understand the relationship between two seemingly contradictory concepts in the Bible: law and gospel. If, as the apostle Paul says, the law cannot save, what can it do? Is it merely an ancient relic from Old Testament Israel to be discarded? Or is it still valuable for Christians today? Helping modern Christians think through this complex issue, seasoned pastor and theologian Sinclair Ferguson carefully leads readers to rediscover an eighteenth-century debate that sheds light on this present-day doctrinal conundrum: the Marrow Controversy. After sketching the history of the debate, Ferguson moves on to discuss the theology itself, acting as a wise guide for walking the path between legalism (overemphasis on the law) on the one side and antinomianism (wholesale rejection of the law) on the other.

Book Description
The profound thought of the Bible is that God wants to impart His divine life and nature into His redeemed and regenerated elect in order to make them God-men. To accomplish this desire God first created man as a vessel for Himself and then presented Himself to man as food. All believers know the importance of loving and serving the Lord. However, many have not seen the need to receive Him as their supply and content. The believers need to daily be bountifully supplied with the divine life in order to be recovered to the central desire of God. In The Lord’s Recovery of Eating, Witness Lee unveils the fundamental scriptural truth that we must breathe the Lord as the living air, drink Him as the living water, and eat Him as the bread of life to receive Him and enjoy Him in our regenerated human spirit through a normal living of calling on His name.
