LSM Launching an App

[Zezima]

Living Stream Ministry recently announced a new app for Life Study readying that will soon be available for download. See More here

Here is the text directly from the website's homepage, in order:

Develop a habit of reading the Life-studies for your spiritual nourishment and growth in Christ.

The 500 Life-studies project aims to help and encourage believers to get into the truth by using the Life-study of the Bible. The "500" comes from Witness Lee's encouragement to seeking believers to read at least 500 Life-study messages for their spiritual nourishment and growth (see quote below).

Over the last ten years we have published approximately twelve hundred Life-studies. I have the assurance to say that whoever has read through five hundred Life-study messages properly has been an excellent believer.

Be a good minister of Christ Jesus, being nourished with the words of the faith and of the good teaching which you have closely followed.
1 Timothy 4:6b

There is a video on the homepage where Minoru Chen articulates the burden of the coworkers for this project. He states that:

"The Life Studies are the Lord's divine provision for the saints in the Recovery to be equipped with the truth to grow and mature in life.

" These Life studies furnish a foundation for the saints in the churches to arrive at the high peak of the divine revelation. "

"One of the greatest needs for the next generation...is they need the Life Studies, they need to get into them."

"There is nothing better we can leave for the next generation than the interpreted word in the Life Studies"

"Our burden is to build up a culture in the Recovery until the Lord returns, generation after generation, they would read these Life Studies. They'd get into them, they'd be constituted with them, they would be fed by them, and equipped by them"

"This has too much to do with the Lord's Recovery's advance and going on in every way, including our gospel preaching, the spread of the churches and this has everything to do with the building up of the body of Christ"


Lot's to be said about the above, which I'll leave the thread to discuss. The conflation of the Bible and the Life Studies is on incredible display here. The emphasis on a Ministry is equally on display.
