Re: My Points of Contention With Lee on Mingling
Thank you for your reply. And, I will certainly read the posts you have suggested. It seems the LC culture is "oneness," but oneness in the erroneous teachings of Lee, not oneness in Christ.
I'm honestly not certain if Lee was genuine in his theology or was just trying to gain tape-recorders of his spoken messages to boost ego. I read in one of his books "mingling" just popped into his head one day and he decided to roll with it. Elsewhere, Lee states that we should use "attractive words" like "the infinite became finite" to gain "new ones." So, it might have all been marketing gimmicks to amplify Lee's "unique flavor" of theology which he felt most Christians "did not know."
And, I agree that teaching should be of many forms. Lee's over-focusing on subjective truths distracted his loyal army from him objectively deviating from fundamental doctrines about which Christ we're worshipping. Those things which should be non-negotiable.
