But to be fair, what was Nee's intention in saying this?
We know that God often has to bring us to the very bottom, usually with much failure, before we can surrender and give ourselves fully to him. Is this what Nee is trying to say?

I thought of Romans 6 too. I also wonder if there was more to this commentary by Nee but was cut short...perhaps I jumped the gun. However, Nee and Lee's spiritual reputation has become very questionable in recent years..especially Lee's.
What I know and have experienced myself is if we continuously sin, knowingly or not
and we are GOD'S, we will hit rock bottom. But through the Mercy and Grace of God, He will shine shine His Light on our darkness, we will repent, we will completely surrender and give ourselves fully to Christ and seek Him deeply until God calls us home.
In addition to our confession, He restores our inner peace and gives Joy unspeakable. HE HEALS our spiritual and emotional wounds. He is faithful to supply all our earthly needs. He makes all things new. He will never leave us or forsake us. He renews our mind in Christ Jesus. He transforms us. He sanctifies us. His Goodness and Mercy follows us all the days of our lives.
And if continuously grab hold and apply His Cleansing Blood, Jesus will keep us from sinning. He will protect us from the evil one. He will strengthen our spirit and soul..even our mortal body although this one seems to be more slow going. {sigh}
THIS IS A FACT! God keeps His Word.
Glory to His Holy and Blessed Name.
