The Goal of God’s Heavenly Calling

In this booklet compiled from Life-study of Philippians, Witness Lee expounds the word out-resurrection in Philippians 3:11. “The term ‘out-resurrection’ is found in the Bible only in Philippians 3:11. The Greek prefix ek means ‘out.’ Here Paul adds this prefix to the usual Greek word for resurrection. What was his reason for doing this? According to his vision and experience, Paul realized that God’s intention in the universe is altogether related to something which is new, something in resurrection, but resurrection in a very particular sense, not resurrection in an ordinary sense.”
