Summary Points

1. One Divine Stream: All six aspects flow from one divine source
2. Balanced Development: All aspects must develop simultaneously

Overall Summary

This comprehensive analysis reveals six interconnected aspects of church life and ministry, all flowing from one divine stream. The progression moves from the inner life flow through fellowship and work, resulting in church growth, building, and expansion. Each aspect is essential and must be balanced with the others, with divine life as the foundation and Christ as the head of all spiritual activity.

The ultimate goal is building the church as God's corporate expression, like the New Jerusalem, filled with God's glory as the mutual dwelling place of God and man for eternity.
