"The Orthodoxy of the Church" is a book written by Watchman Nee on the Revelation which is a book of signs and prophecy in the Bible. The book of Revelation reveals the ultimate destiny of many things, including the World, Unbelievers, and Satan. More importantly, however, it reveals the destiny and consummation of the people of God, including the nation of Israel and the Church. In "the Orthodoxy of the Church" Watchman Nee progressively unfolds the history of the Church from the time of the Lord's ascension to the time of HIS coming back by expounding the prophetic significances of the seven churches in chapter two and three of the book of Revelation. His exposition includes historical details about the development of the Church and spiritual insight into the true condition of the Church. Finally, he sounds forth a call to all believers to be "overcomers" in this present age in simple and clear language, echoing the Spirit's speaking to the Churches.
Preface
The preface of this book is written by Witness Lee, the most closed co-worker of Nee. In the preface Lee speaks about the life of Watchman Nee as a servant of God, one who is balanced in both Life and Knowledge. One of the key point of this book is about the discovery of the ground of oneness and the ground of locality among the Christians in Lord's Recovery.
The messages in the book were given and published in 1945 at Chungking.
