Default Re: My Points of Contention With Lee on Mingling

Hello, Russian 95!

Long post.

I do recommend to read all posts from thread : is God Trinity, and Biblical evidence of man becoming God... .
This may be very helpful and will give You a few answers.
Of course there is a place to discuss all this crazy teachings and philosophical thoughts of Witness Lee, but detoxification will lead at least to reading only Bible and rejection of all these ideas, comparisons, new definitions.
He was kinda brother philosopher who believed that he will explain everything and translate and unveil truths.
Word of God is to apply in action. Those who are "mingled" ( in Bible one with) Him, Lord Jesus, will shine. Will bring fruits. Will be His witnesses giving testimony in life. And so on, and so on.
Blended, mingled, mixed...
You can call it as You wish.
The main problem in his teaching, was directing saints to his teaching.
Teaching has only one purpose: take the knowledge given to us.
But what knowledge? Only mental?
Or spiritual?
1 Pet 4:11

If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

I suggest to ask Yourself who is actually WL for You? Is he minster of this or previous age? If each age has minister, so why there is no certain name for 21 century?
Was he the only one and omniscient man? Or just brother, which did good job with research, symbols?
Ask Yourself also what is actually Your own experience of this being one with Lord? Why we have to name things already existing and named in Bible?
I think he trusted too much in himself and it led him and this movement where it is now.
Once again, dear Russian95, read those threads first if You have a little time.
