There is many misconceptions and outright contradictions in the Local church movement and the ministry of Lee. In my personal experience, I believe that the leadership of this group, and those that created these concepts out of thin air, have more to do with trying to reinvent the control mechanisms of the church in the book of Acts, and not anything that that church practiced or portrayed. This is on display every single day by those who are at the top of the food chain, and even those who blindly follow those men.
I wish I had time to write up a rebuttal to every single thing that I was taught in LC regarding this matter, but I don’t have billionaires funding my existence and daily life operation, or convinced thousands of people that only my writings are legit and they should be only reading my books. Opps, who would want that anyway! It would totally “inflate myself” and be divisive to even consider. Time to go to work and make a living somehow, and leave some things to the Lord to expose, or I will probably “be a person subject to being misled into serious errors.” It also might be my western concepts that I’ve developed that get in a way of proper understanding and special enlightenments that were only available to “superior bros”. One must always remember that Nee has diagnosed and issued a final cause and affect regarding us mortal beings trying to make sense of anything, by saying,
