About this ebook
“Exercise thyself unto piety [or godliness]; for bodily exercise is profitable for a little, but piety [godliness] is profitable for everything, having promise of life of the present one and of that to come” (1 Timothy 4:8). People nowadays are most conscious of the need to engage in physical exercise, but unfortunately God’s people are considerably negligent regarding the need for spiritual exercise. They may have had some experience of being in the school of Christ where they learn something of God’s truth mentally, yet they are quite ignorant when it comes to the gymnasium of Christ where through spiritual exercise they may learn of Christ himself and grow up in Him daily. This causes them to be large in head but small in feet. They know a lot but advance very little along the pathway towards spiritual maturity. In view of this disappointing situation, brother Stephen Kaung gave a series of twenty messages on the necessity for Christians to be attendees and participants daily in the gymnasium of Christ.
About the author
Born in China, Stephen Kaung was converted to Christ at an early age. He met Watchman Nee in the early 1930's and became a co-worker with Brother Nee in the Lord's work. He moved to the United States in 1952, and has continued to share Christ with the Lord's people around the world, as well as translate and publish the messages of Watchman Nee. Today, at the age of 97, he continues to be a great encouragement to the saints wherever he ministers, demonstrating that "It is no longer I that live but Christ Who lives in me."
