Well if by "precision" you mean truth, I would agree. And so long as one holds Witness Lee and Benson Phillips to the very same standard of precision and truth I would absolutely agree.

Witness Lee plainly and clearly stated that he was the only person on earth speaking as God's oracle since 1945.

Benson Phillips plainly and clearly stated that the only way a Christian can enter the process of sanctification is in the Local Church of Witness Lee, and that no person who has ever left the Local Church of Witness Lee has ever become a great spiritual person on earth.

How's that for precision? And how's that for giving young people and new Christians the strong impression that their salvation is on the line if they dis Witness Lee, or if they have even the slightest idea of defecting from the Lord's Recovery? Just sayin...
