There is a three-part discussion about Watchman Nee on YouTube on a channel called "Critical Issues Commentary".
part 1, Examining "The Spiritual Man": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUbRajKfjik
part 2, False Teachings Do Not Sanctify: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjIqaSs8zno
part 3, Falsely Cleaving Spirit and Soul: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fqkVItin64
It's interesting to hear the perspective of someone NOT from the local church but from another group influenced by Watchman Nee. I listened on 1.5 speed and still understood just fine. I think part 2 and 3 have more of interest in them, personally.
I just finished listening to part 2 - appreciated their verse-supported breakdown of Nee's creation of three kinds of people (unbelievers, soulish Christians, and spiritual Christians), when really the Bible just shows unbelievers versus believers. Also appreciated his repeated statements that Nee will leave you confused and defeated, and that his claims are self-defeating.
