In this issue of The Ministry, we include the third of a series of messages which Brother Lee spoke concerning migration in Los Angeles in 1969. The purpose, goal, and aim of our migrations is to spread the Lord’s recovery in a full way with all the items and all the aspects of what Christ is to His Body. The Lord’s recovery has advanced item by item since before the time of Martin Luther. Now today the last item of God’s recovery is the church life. The church life is the completion of His recovery. When we migrate out, we must take the proper ground, the proper standing, of the church to represent the church life in an all-inclusive way. If we are clear about this, when we go out, we will know how to go, where to stand, and what we must do. The next six messages in this issue are from the International Conference of Co-workers and Elders in Taipei, Taiwan in April and May of 1998. The subject of this conference was Being Constituted with and Propagating the Divine Revelation in the Lord’s Recovery. We must be constituted with the divine revelation in the Lord’s recovery concerning God’s New Testament economy, and we must live the God-man life and practice the vital groups. Then we will propagate and spread the divine riches to the uttermost parts of the earth for the increase and building up of the Body of Christ consummating in the New Jerusalem. We also include several reports on the current moves of the ministry. The first report recounts the history and nature of the blending fellowship of the co-workers as they became clear regarding how to carry out the current migrations in the Lord’s recovery according to His organic move. The second report is an account of the International Conference of Co-workers and Elders, the International Blending Conference, the gospel march, and the visitation for blending in Taipei, Taiwan in April and May of 1998. The third report testifies of the oneness of the churches in the Lord’s recovery in the successful purchase of a campus for the spread of the work of God’s New Testament ministry. A fourth report gives some important details concerning the preparation of the Russian Recovery Version as it enters its final stages before printing. Lastly, an encouraging letter from Timisoara, Romania details the progress of the spread of the literature of the ministry in that country.
