Omnipresence, Omniscience, and Omnipotence are attributes of God that are NOT communicable. God's life and nature are communicable in the same way that the life and nature of your father is communicated to you. You are a son but you do not become your father and his fatherhood.

Brother Lee made this distinction clear. Anyone who actually reads and represents what he actually said would be clear, fair, and honest on this point. For example:

"The Body of Christ is composed first of the redeemed ones, who were born by the Spirit to be the children of the Father. They are the God-men, and they are the very Body of Christ, the framework. Built within them are the Spirit, the Lord, and the Father. All three of the Divine Trinity have been built into the redeemed, regenerated believers. So there is such a building, such a structure, constituted with humanity and divinity in the Divine Trinity. Man, the Spirit, the Lord, and the Father are built together. This is not just three-in-one. This is four-in-one. God became a man so that we, His redeemed, might become God. With Him there is the Godhead. But regardless of how much divine life and divine nature we have to be the same as God, we do not have the Godhead.

(Practical Points concerning Blending, Chapter 3)

The "omni" attributes are those of the Godhead. We do not share in those ....ever. Those are unchangeable and incommunicable and belong to God in His Godhead alone.

Wow! Thanks Drake.

Of course Lee didn’t teach “that”. Bible-believer wasn’t quoting Lee’s teaching. His was talking about the results of Lee’s teaching, or the implications of his teaching.

However, I will say, the text you provided is a real whopper….more heretical even than what Bible-believer pointed out. Thanks.

But I’m curious…Practical Points concerning Blending, Chapter 3…is this a book/message by Witness Lee? It doesn’t sound like Lee. To me, it sounds like a paraphrase by yet another anonymous LSM author. So. Are you quoting Lee or someone else?

The reason I ask, I was in Irving Tx when Lee was speaking in person when he dropped his “man becomes God” bombshell. When the message came out in print a few weeks later, the god-man stuff wasn’t even there. I wanted what I heard IN PRINT, but LSM strangely didn’t print it. That’s just wrong.
