Teachings
Witness Lee believed and taught the scriptural, fundamental faith held by all genuine Christians. The apostle Paul addressed Titus as his �genuine child according to the common faith� (1:4). Witness Lee identifies this as �the faith that is common to all believers� (Recovery Version, footnote). Jude exhorted the believers to earnestly contend for the faith: �Beloved, while using all diligence to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you and exhort you to earnestly contend for the faith once for all delivered to the saints� (Jude 3). Witness Lee states that this is �not subjective faith as our believing but objective faith as our belief, referring to the things we believe in, the contents of the New Testament as our faith (Acts 6:7; 1 Tim. 1:19, 3:9, 4:1, 5:8, 6:10, 21; 2 Tim. 3:8, 4:7; Titus 1:13), in which we believe for our common salvation. This faith, not any doctrine, has been delivered once for all to the saints� (Recovery Version, footnote 3).
