Rating:  Summary: In spirit, we know God. Review: Although many people claim to be worshippers of God, God is still looking for true worshippers (John 4:23-24). The book clearly shows the reason why a Christian needs to be guided by his spirit in stead of his soul, and how he could be spiritual in order to serve God. The book is an excellent experiential guidance (rather than a doctrine) for believers to experience, or rather to touch the living God who dwells in their spirit, in order to know Him, serve Him, and worship Him according to His heart's desire.
Rating:  Summary: One of the best book for deeper spiritual truths. Review: For the advance christians that reveals the deeper spiritual truths inspired by God. One of the best book I've ever read next to the bible.
Rating:  Summary: consists essential truth for Christians Review: God uses Mr.Nee through this book to answer lots of questions that I had during my quiet times. This book deals with hard and deep spiritual truth. By the guidance of the Holy Spirit, you will find lots of jewels here. When reading this book, present yourself as knowing nothing on the subject that this book deals with, but make sure to consult to the Holy Spirit and check everything against the Bible.
Rating:  Summary: A MUST READ FOR EVERY CHRISTIAN Review: I am surprised that this book has not been publicized as much as these other christian books we have out here that only meets the surface. Watchman Nee's book "Spiritual Man" reveals the real problems with man, and the solutions that Jesus Christ has to offer which is based solely on the cross and the resurrection. I praise God for using Watchman Nee to reveal such profound truths like no other Christian author I have read. I have read many books from Christian pastors and authors seen on TBN, Daystar, INSP, and other christian networks. This book exceeds all. It is as if the Holy Spirit was writing the book while Watchman Nee was just pinning what the Holy Spirit said. Please, if you do not have this book, you must get it. It will open your eyes to Jesus, spiritual warfare, faith, healing, and etc. like no other. He uses scripture upon scripture and the guidance of the Holy Spirit to validate everything that is said. GOD BLESS WATCHMAN NEE

Rating:  Summary: This book is dangerous all right Review: I bought this book when I was in the throes of charismatic Christianity. The major fallacy of this book is that it is based solely upon one scripture, one that is completely taken out of context. In order to understand scripture, you have to understand the context in which the passage was written. You then have to compare that passage with the entire counsel of the Bible. Is there any other passage of scripture in the Bible that explicitly agrees with Nee's premise? Not really. Of course there are many that seem to agree, but I can drum up any philosophy, slap some verses together, and say they prove my point. It's this dangerous practice that has people believing in everything from the superiority of one race over another to the bombing of abortion clinics. There's a lot I could say about this book, but given that I only have 1,000 words, I'll offer some advice that will serve you better than reading this book. If you really want to become a true, spiritual Christian, there's only one way. Do what the Bible says, not what Watchman Nee says. Part of this is surrounding yourself with Christian friends who have a good grounding in sound doctrine. Another part is submitting yourself to a pastor (preferably one with understanding of Greek and some Hebrew also) with a real degree from a Bible-teaching (accredited) Bible college. Don't believe the hype about someone just because they can preach or seem very gifted in some other way. The gift must be present, but training is absolutely necessary. Jesus trained His disciples day and night for 3-1/2 years. Paul was one of the most learned men of his day. The men he set as pastors over churches served with him (or other apostles) for many years before receiving this privilege. Once you've set yourself under a good pastor who teaches sound doctrine, you will see the foolishness in this book yourself.

Rating:  Summary: Fallacious Appeals to Emotion Review: I found this book to be riddled with gross numbers of logical fallacies that were unsupported by any degree of physical evidence. For anyone with a proper education this book is nothing but insulting to ones intellect.
Rating:  Summary: An Anointed Minister Review: I have quite a collection of Minister Watchman Nee's teachings and I must say that I find all of them extremely helpful in my quest to be knowledgeable in the Word of God. No one is perfect, except Jesus Christ, and Jesus said that he would send the Comforter when He returned to the Father. I believe Minister Nee dedicated his life to Jesus Christ and my savior the Lord Jesus anointed him with the knowledge that he possessed and the Comforter led Minister Nee to write and teach as he did. The Spiritual Man is a must-read for those who need to learn more about how we as children of God should walk. Read it in addition to the Holy Bible.
