Verses:

Eph. 4:15 “But holding to truth in love, we may grow up into Him in all things, who is the Head, Christ.”

 

Excerpts:

The secret that all the saints on the entire earth will become the one new man depends first on holding to truth in love. The truth is Christ. Holding to truth is holding to Christ. Next, we must grow up into Christ in all things. This is entirely a matter of the Spirit. Your speaking, actions, adornment, attire, dealings with others, managing of affairs, and the way you treat people must be in the Spirit.

 

In all the localities we are doing only one thing, and that is to minister Christ and to pray that others may hold to Christ as the truth in love and grow up into Him in all things. Eventually, there will not be this kind of people or that kind of people, but there will be only Christ. This is the new man. When we grow up into Christ in this way, spontaneously we will allow Christ to be the person. Christ as the person is not individual or local but universal.

 

The churches in different localities do not have strict rules to regulate us to be the same and to make us all do the same thing. However, because the brothers and sisters in every place all hold to Christ as truth in love and grow up into Him in all things, the result is that we all spontaneously take Christ as the person. If you grow up into Christ in all things, then He is your person. If all the brothers and sisters in all six continents take Christ as the person, then spontaneously all the brothers and sisters on the earth in His recovery will be the one new man. (CWWL, 1977, vol. 3, “One Body, One Spirit, and One New Man,” pp. 338-340)
