Re: Lee and Kaung Lines in America

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIR! And thank you also for this paper.

It's really sad that things have become so complicated. All this talk of a “ground”... I'm reminded of the scene in “The Name of the Rose”...

Re: Public Statement - On the Lee Road

Yes, both Kaung and Nee obviously had the right attitude of humility and respect for what already exists in the locality.

Re: Public Statement - On the Lee Road

On the Nee road

Hi Indiana,

I would appreciate that, because I too am someone who likes to hold on to good roots. But that's why I have to dig a little deeper.

At the beginning of the 1963...

Re: My Struggle With The Church Life

Hello Brother 227,

I'm just an outsider here because I've never been a member of the “local churches”. But my tip would be: Try to be clear about how Jesus wants to change not only yourself, but...

Re: Heart Of The Local Church Problem...

Flesh is the problem? Let's look at the Bible and find out how we should deal with it.

Re: Heart Of The Local Church Problem...

Yes! but how do we prevent this? In a mystical retreat from the truth? By everyone having their own truth?

The undivided New Testament ekklesia is the “foundation of truth”. The church in which...

Re: Heart Of The Local Church Problem...

Definitely no! This is not the church we are taught by the Apostles. Nor by Jesus.
„Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.“ (Matthew...

Re: Witness Lee Went Too Far; Christendom Probably Not Far Enough

There is probably another reason. WL started preaching the “God-man” at the time when he also complained that his work with the church never reached the standard of the original vision. So at this...

Re: Revelation 2:26,27

I don't know, of course, but I'm leaning in that direction. As one thing is for sure: God is not just searching us individuals, he is searching his kingdom, his uncorrupted area in this world. So I...

They do NOT fit together.



I agree! All I wanted to say was that

Hi Bearbear,
:scratchhead: That's exactly what I don't believe! I don't believe that these two things, being saved and being lawless, fit together. And therefore I can't imagine that God makes...

Re: Revelation 2:26,27

May I add one more thing from WN on this matter:

"The Bible tells us of a very serious truth. Although someone may have eternal life, he may still be rejected from the kingdom of the heavens. One...

Re: Revelation 2:26,27

Maybe we could agree on this position:

„What then is the reward, and what is the gift? We were saved because of the gift. God gave the gift to us freely by His grace; therefore, we were saved. The...

Re: Revelation 2:26,27

I understand what you mean. And we can make the “positional/conditional” distinction in a technical sense. But Jesus died for all our sins, even the ones we have a choice in and commit willfully....

What a pity that many other old timer who have delivered remarkable statements in this forum no longer take part.

By the way, when I came here I also saw a post (I think it was from ExChurchKid)...

Re: Recovering a Pure Testimony

The clearest and simplest is apparently the most difficult for us (our flesh): the local, undivided ekklesia representing Christ. No other entity can do that, even if they call themselves “local...

Re: LSM & A&C "Martin Luther did not recover justification by faith."!!

Hi Truthinlove,



That is, of course, complete nonsense. Unlike today, people in the late Middle Ages had a lot of faith, so much so that they even believed in letters of indulgence. Faith was...

Re: Revelation 2:26,27

Reward... not easy. And I think the Bible does not put it in the foreground for good reason.

Certainly for everything that Jesus has overcome, we will not receive the reward. And that encloses...

Congratulations on turning your back on the LC stuff. The kingdom of God and its manifestation in his ekklesia still has so much positive future and so many positive tasks. I enjoyed...

thank you for the information! Although my question was: why is the country so divided today when there are so many good churches?

Yes, I am also always very skeptical when there...

Re: Is One Church One City a bad idea or unBiblical?

Re: Is One Church One City a bad idea or unBiblical?

ThankfulForever777,
There is no commandment “One city, one church.” I agree! (For me it’s about the reality of the gospel)
No compelling brothers and sister to whatever. I agree!
No cherry picking...
